“Ah, well, it is true that we couldn’t have kids otherwise…” Len didn’t want a kid, especially since he was pretty sure he’d never find someone he’d want to raise it with, so he had never entertained such a notion before. “I mean, maybe… I don’t know. Even if law allowed it, that doesn’t mean Crypton would.” He scratched the back of his neck, feeling a bit awkward.
“Ah… Ahm…” If Luka was raising a human child, he could only imagine how many phone calls he would get every time she was confused about something. Even so, Luka was definitely sweet enough to be a mother, but he had to wonder how well she could keep a kid from danger, especially when she could hardly handle herself. …Of course, it was all hypothetical either way. “You are… very nice, Luka. Nicer than me. What I mean is, despite what anyone may say about being ‘a robot,’ you have more genuine love to give than a lot of humans do.” He paused for a moment, thinking of the best way to imply that she might be a bit too uninformed to be a mother. “So, yes, in the future, when you’re sure you know everything about the world around you, I think you would be a good mother.”
“Mmm you’re right; it would be foolish to try and raise a child while I can barely act like an adult. I may be in this body, but there are things that younger humans know that I do not.” Luka let out a sigh, if only she was given more data to rely on-- life in this world would have been much easier, “I apologize if I bother you with all these questions, Len...how is it that you know so much? You have been alive longer than I, but is there a secret?”
