Well. It ah. Seems I'll have some time on my hands until I get some repairs finished. Fortunately I'm still mobile via my holomatter avatar so any students who I am tutoring should have no break in schedule and everything else is business as usual...

I do have a question however.

I'm just wondering, what is it that humans and other organics do for fun? Or at least to occupy your time?

Yours mutht be unincluded.

[weapabilities]

Yeah, for the most part it's kind if a distant subject for us. Depending on how you come into existence, if you're forged or cold-constructed or whatnot.

[biwinning]

What'th the difference?

[weapabilities]

When you're forged, you're born of the planet. Like in a hot spot, your spark is extracted from the ground and cared for that way. When you're cold-constructed, a body is prepared and a piece of another spark is split from a donor and used to bring that body to life.

[biwinning]

Tho completely asexual reproduction. ...I don't know what I wath expecting.

[weapabilities]

What? I think it's far cleaner than slinging fluids at each other and hoping something sticks.

[biwinning]

Wow, you have waysth of making it thound even more repulthive than it already ith. I wath jutht thaying I had no idea how it worked but thtill your anthwer surprised me.

[weapabilities]

Sorry. Guess I just don't understand why humans seem so... obsessed with it. Then again reproduction doesn't coincide with 'fun' for me.

[biwinning]

It wouldn't, I doubt you have pleasure receptors attached to "yeah, let's build an empty robot body and then pierce part of our (alien blood pusher?) and stick it inside and hope it worksth."

[weapabilities]

Well, there's not really much hope involved with it. But it hasn't really been done for a while, what with the war being on, we had less time to do that.

[biwinning]

Well.

Think you could do it here?

[weapabilities]

No. It'd take the right kind of cybertronian medics and engineers to do it properly. I don't really even know fully how the process works. If my friend Perceptor was here... maybe, but no.

I'm just a soldier.

[biwinning]

You don't even want to try? Can't you just take back your spark or whatever if it doesn't work?

[weapabilities]

I'm nowhere near smart enough, I don't even know where to start. I mean, if I did it wrong I'd probably end up killing myself. Besides I wouldn't really want to...

To make a new life here. You know?

[biwinning]

... Yeah, I know exactly what you mean. ... Thith ithn't a good place for it.

[weapabilities]

Yeah.

There were a lot of war-born mechs, cold-constructed for... for purposes. It was terrible. Being created in a world to fight and never knowing peace. Most of them just accepted it as a fact of life. We'd been fighting for millions of years.

It... perturbs me that so many younger people are brought here for the same reasons.

[biwinning]

Do me a favor and exclude trollsth from your perturbed umbrella. We've been doing thith sort of shit since we hatched.

[weapabilities]

Well, I don't really know how your species ages or what your society is like, so I haven't really made any assumptions. I really only know about my own species, some things abut humans and a few other well-known organic species in our quadrant.

[biwinning]

Good. Don't.

How many others of your kind are here?

[weapabilities]

Just one other...

[biwinning]

...Oh.

Do you like them, at least?

[weapabilities]

Yes. He is probably one of the most important people in my life. I care for him dearly.
