Hello! This is a little sudden, but I'd like to hear some opinions. Anyone who has time, please go ahead and answer! Does it seem to you like the native folks are getting better at keeping the basic requirements of human life in mind? How should a person bargain for things like meal breaks, sleep breaks and so on with potential employers who haven't needed such things themselves in thousands of years? Would it even be possible to persuade someone like that? Would it be possible for someone with an ordinary, mundane human body to impersonate a robot? How would you do it? Would there be a punishment if you got caught, do you think? This is all just brainstorming, so please don't worry about wrong answers! Thank you!

And the alternative you're cooking up is pretend to be a robot so they run you into the ground anyway.

Only temporarily! I can last a day or two to prove my mettle, and then reveal myself!

think that'd be sending the wrong message tho

Sometimes you have to do something daring to get results!

I mean it'd make a great selling point for sure, as long as you aren't selling 'oh yeah I can really be a robot including none of the things I should just ask for'

It would just be to make them give me a chance! A start, you know? I would ask them to adjust the schedule a little for me after that. Anyway, I don't think I'd be able to fool them in the first place, so it doesn't matter. Forget about it.

no no, its a good idea when it's got the follow up there. just had to make sure. [You are a person of extremes, Kyoko.]

But hey.sure you're not gonna fool em in the long term, but getting them to do a double take? that'd blow some of their wiring for sure. you could def do that

Are you trying to say I look like a robot?

i'm saying you could act like a robot

It doesn't matter if I can act like one if I can't look like one too!

Did you want me to say yes???

I wonder how hard it'd be to get you a suit or something. Maybe some repair shops would lend some parts if we give em back.

No! There's just no sense in saying I can do it if it won't actually work! Be practical! Do you think they'd just let us take them? Wouldn't that be like asking a hospital to lend us organs?

you've got half of it down probably!

yeah that's the part i'm not sure about. but it'd probably be way easier to find someone that can make something similar than it was finding someone good at clothes at first.

No matter how I look at it, trying to buy a metal body straight-up is going to be suspicious.... And what would I do about the face? Even if I could buy one from a repair shop, it wouldn't have anything to hook up to with ME wearing it. Even robot actors still have to have expressions!

hm true. though i bet you could still impress em with mannerisms even without the whole costume.

The impersonation plan isn't about IMPRESSING them. It's about infiltration. Like the Trojan horse.

Feel like you might as well just kick the door down. Be daring head on.

That's plan number one, naturally. But I'll be doing it just as Kyoko. Operation Trojan Robot is further down the line, if things get really desperate.

Then go all the way and just ask for what you need. I bet they'd be tickled just cuz you wanna give it another go. Have em set some alarms or somethin

They kinda told me I shouldn't come back last time, though.... "Tickled" is probably too optimistic.

Maybe, but if you already think its gonna go bad than you might as well try anyway. Like you said, they've gotten better at keeping things in mind.

I mean i know you're gonna try, but don't worry about it too much

I just want them to think I'm dependable, after last time.... I really messed up. I'm worrying because it's a worry!

You'll be dependable enough if you're looking after yourself. If it works out I can come pick you up so you can get some sleep in your own bed.

I wouldn't wanna make you go out of your way for something like that! But I am going to see if they can just arrange the filming schedule so that I can go home at night. And I won't take on a lot of projects at once this time, even if I get offered lots. So, I won't just disappear.

[ Don't think she forgot the talk they had about that, even if it had been more about avoiding touch. ]

You better not.

[He'd noticed she wasn't around as much during her last stint, but it would have been far more pronounced this time around.]

You're not gonna make me do anything. I wouldn't be going out of my way if i wanna come get you.
