{ ❥ } – ….The other’s trying. Akura resists the urge to pat the other’s head; it’s kind of cute to see them try so hard.
“Were you now? I think you’re doing a pretty good job.” A pause, and then — “My name’s Akura. What’s yours?”
"Really? Ah-- Thank you!" Cross pauses, tilting their head to give the boy a quick scan before they reply. "I call myself Cross. Please feel free to refer to me that way, too, Akura."
She didn’t quite understand, immediately that quick moment of rage faded and she recoiled slightly. She wasn’t afraid of the other, but what she would do to them. She swallowed and shook her head, “I—I can’t be helped. I’m… I’m just…” Her skin seemed to vibrate as she trembled.
"Ah--" An almost anxious whirring could be heard from Cross's core. "You're displaying very unusual symptoms, ma'am. Please give me permission to do what I can." Though, honestly, Cross isn't sure how they can help. The symptoms Cross can observe aren't things that Cross is used to trying to treat.
friendly reminder that even if i take ages to reply, i still want to roleplay with you
☆ ; Sarabi looked confused. That explanation didn’t help him at all. He didn’t know what a robot was. The sheltered little mermaid was entirely new to the human world and their advances. Sarabi made a face at being called a mermaid. He didn’t like the title. It was just too crude and human-like. But the real word didn’t translate well into the human language. He stared at them and nodded slowly.
☆ “That’s what the humans call me.” ☆
"Ah -- yes!" Cross brightened visibly, clearly paying even closer attention than they had been before. "You'll have to excuse me, sir. I operate using human terminology due to my Mother being human. If there is another name your species prefers to be referred to as, I will be certain to use that instead!"
botisms; closed.
she’s breathing heavily, struggling to relax. her body is tense and shaking. her fists are tight and her teeth grit into a sneer. ‘no,' she thought bitterly. 'i… have to fight you…' she whipped her head around, suddenly hyper aware of her surroundings. long tresses of white hair was pushed out of her pallor features, ruby red eyes narrowed at the stranger staring at her.
“What?” she snapped, only because her body was so tense.
"A-Ah..." Cross pauses, entire body stiffening for a moment. Soon enough, though, their programming and general concern for the other outweighs their uncertainties, and Cross approaches quickly.
"You'll have to excuse me, ma'am," Cross says, "but you're showing visible signs of distress, both mentally and bodily, and a quick scan told me that you're experiencing quite a lot of pain, as well as heart contractions, elevated breathing, and higher blood pressure. Also, you are displaying symptoms of a panic attack. Please allow me to assist you."
{ ❥ } – Ah, is the other trying to smile? He looks almost like he’s in pain, but… Regardless, Akura lifts his hand and gives the other a short little wave and a smile. “Hi there. Did you want something?”
Ah! So the smile is working after all! Encouraged, Cross tries to stretch the smile into a grin. "No thank you -- I have nothing I require, sir. I was only attempting to be friendly."
Worry gives way to exasperation. This clearly wasn’t a normal person, and the fact that he’d humored the idea at all in the first place leaves him a bit annoyed.
”—People’s hands don’t just fall off, you know.”
"Mmm..." A low whirring can be heard as they consider the stranger's words. After a moment, they shake their head. "But sometimes mine does, and I'm a person. Your logic appears invalid. Unless you don't consider me a person."
"Hello."
Is the smile working? Cross is pretty sure the smile isn't working.

no this kid
Ko considers arguing that they should still go to a hospital, but he pauses as he watches their hand reattach. —Right. Maybe they didn’t need a hospital after all.
Shifting his weight between his feet, Ko still looks irritated as ever as he stammers, “I just— uh, thought- since your hand fell off. Is it really okay?”
What a strange thing to say.
Understanding dawns in Cross's eyes as they observe the stranger's reactions. Aha! So the boy is assuming Cross is a natural human! The idea is exciting, and a crooked smile appears on Cross's face in an instnat.
"Don't worry about it, sir! Everything is fine! Thank you for being so kind."
morningxnoonxnight replied to your post: morningxnoonxnight asked:Question...
Why on earth would I mind? I think it’s great to know that the player is still learning, and working around their character. I’m sure others are glad to know this, too.
ahh you're so sweet~ thank you!
who do i have to get on my knees for to get some more janua icons
Question! What do you find is hardest about playing an agendered bot? Because... I donno. I like seeing you on my dash. And I'm nosy as fuck.
To be honest, keeping my pronouns straight is the hardest for me. I personally use both she/her and they/them pronouns when referring to myself, depending on my feeling that day, so I’m not at all unfamiliar with using they/them pronouns, but sometimes I fuck up and use she/her in threads despite myself, since I was originally considering making a female robot, but Cross turned out to be agender/gender neutral by the end of their development. Still, I’m really glad I chose to make Cross gender neutral, because I think it’s more true to their character and also because I’m exploring my own gender identity a lot lately and there’s something kind of fulfilling about getting to play a gender queer character.
As for the robot bit, well... I don't know a damn thing about robots... So there's a lot of bullshit involved........
☆ ; Sarabi didn’t answer back. It didn’t matter to him whether others knew of his human status or not. In fact, he somewhat preferred that they did. Then they knew how to respond to him. The violet haired mermaid just felt that the other knew now so it just confirmed their non-human status.
☆ "What are you?" ☆
"A robot! Or, more specifically, a DMM-model android." It's easier for them to admit to being non-human to someone else who was also non-human, as it turned out. "And you're a mermaid, correct?" It seemed like the only reasonable thing, considering the data that they had gotten from their scan, but it was always best to confirm. After all, Cross doesn't have everything in their database.
“ indeed I would have. shouldn’t you ask permission before you scan a stranger? " the fact that this…being had done something without asking is really the only thing that annoys her.
"Oh? Why? Does it upset you?" The idea was troubling. Cross doesn't ever want to be impolite or, worse, hurtful to anyone, even if their directive to help and protect only technically applied to humans. They shuffle their feet, unsettled. "I'm sorry, miss. My intention was not to unsettle you. Scanning is simply how I make sense of the world around me, like I presume that you experience touch, creative intuition, or natural instinct. I don't have that, so being able to scan is often vital to my survival. I'll refrain from scanning you any more, though, if you'd like."
