Chloe waited patiently nearby until CC looked like he wasn’t busy anymore. She didn’t want to disturb him while he was busy with silly questions. When he seemed free, she finally walked over to him. “You have a dog, right?” Chloe asked, briefly remembering him talking about it once before. “If you have time, would it be okay if I could pet him?” In truth, she really missed having animals around all the time when she used to live with Ralph. (I just remembered he had a dog omg)

CC nodded. "Yeah, his name is Trigger. He's an older K900 model. I found him several weeks ago." Though really, Trigger had been the one to find CC. He would have never found the stray on his own. The K900 had scanned him from afar and determined that CC was an SQ800. The military model android was the closest thing the poor dog had to it's original programming. While Trigger was designed to work with law enforcement, there was a time were K900s were briefly in the armed forces before quickly being retired to make way for the SQ800s. CC assumed that was the reason the dog chose to interact with him. He was something familiar to the pooch, or his function at least related closely to the K900s. Perhaps it was a sense of comradery that drew him to CC.
"Of course. I'm sure he would really like that." Trigger acted like any other dog. Though he acted like an old dog most the time. He laid around and acted lazy. Though CC noticed he got bored a lot. So he tried to do some enrichment with Trigger whenever he could. Whether it be planting gunpowder somewhere around Jericho or practicing a takedown, he always tried to keep the dog entertained by doing tasks he would have done as a K9 officer.
He led Chloe over to the dog in question then. Trigger was laying down beside a few crates, watching all the other androids go about their day. However, when he saw CC approaching with Chloe, his tail began to wag. "Trigger, this is Chloe. Chloe, this is Trigger." The dog lifted it's head then.
"She's a friend of mine. She's very nice and wanted to know if she could pet you." The K900 got to it's feet then and went to sit down in front of them. He raised a paw up to Chloe then like he wanted to shake, his tail wagging furiously.
"I'd say you're in the clear," CC smiled.
