What exactly are you?

-There's a guy and a lizardfriend though-

-Bladewolf is familiar with other beings inside the room yes-

-But there's something inside of him thinking-

-How will I pass by without looking like I was eavesdropping the entire time?-

"I am a genetically-modified monitor lizard, designed for a military application. I have not seen actual service, as I am only the prototype for my specific model."

No. No, I've done that enough. I'm sick of sitting back or being pushed away when I can help, because someone decided they have to be better than me at it. If someone wants to make it a contest and be a fuckhead about it then that's their problem. What am I even doing out here?

-wow that went somewhere totally different-

-gets up and starts walking inside-

...

-Bladewolf slowly approaches the two-

A prototype as well? Do you consider yourself a failed or successful project?

(Shakes his head a little, grunting.)

"No, it's alright. I am very fortunate, all things considered. It could have gone a lot worse than it did."

(that completely fucked up body plan, tho)

(Sees the Bladewoof and nods to him.)

"Oh, hello. I am not so successful, I am afraid. It's alright, though."

-Incredibly uncomfortable with where this conversation is going-

-Looks as impassive as ever-

-Nimbus is inside, inspecting an orange-

-Bladewolf nods-

I see... Well, do you think of yourself as a personal success?

My original creators deemed me a failure and shut me down after they realized that I could not develop an organic craving for bloodlust.

Though, personally, I consider that a success of my own.

(Cranes his neck to look himself over for a moment.)

"That's good, then. I suppose so, though I am very far from ideal. I would not want to exist solely for killing either."

(Looks up at Cloud, mildly concerned at how silent he's fallen.)

-Bladewolf nods-

That is an acceptable answer. One must not let the words of others, even their own creators, hold them back.

-The robot shifts his attention to Cloud-

Is there something on your mind, organic?

(Nods, grunting.)

"Yes. And I suppose it helps, to be a prototype. Any inconsistencies with your intended purpose have a little less bearing on your life as you are just the first. I fear to think what it would be like to be deemed a failure as a later model."

(Watches Bladewolf curiously, squinting at him.)

-Muscles are tensed-

-Nostrils slightly flared-

-And that last comment from Gila made him visibly clench his jaw-

-He's got sunglasses on. Indoors. So who knows what he's hiding-

...Did you guys want something to eat?

How does someone eat one of these? The surface smells nice, but I don't think it's edible.

-He holds up an orange-

-Bladewolf continues the scan-

Ah, yes. If I wasn't the prototype model, they wouldn't have bothered to install my optical neuro-AI, much less allow me neuron count of 90 billion. I wouldn't be able to speak with you organics at all...

-Bladewolf decides against vocally announcing Cloud's condition, not wanting to cause distress to either party-

Food is quite useless to me, organic. If anything it would cause minor damage to my interior.

"No, I just ate, but thank you."

(Smells Cloud instinctually. Is decent enough at reading stress in humans to know that something is amiss.)

(Bladewolf.) "Oh, that's very fortunate, then. I am lucky I can write as I can. My vocal cords cannot make many sounds."

-He smells like alien virus and like human and a bit like something really really weird-

-And like stress. Man does he ever. It's a wonder his heart hasn't given out yet-

You peel it. The outside comes off. Like clothes, sort of.

Oh, I see. Apologies.

... Sometimes I go back into my memory banks and pull up files of my instructors teaching me how to speak. Not only did I need to vocalize commands such as "what is this color" or "what should I have for breakfast", I had to process the meanings of words as well.

For the longest time I was stuck on "famous" and "infamous"...

(Fairly concerned for this badwrong aberration disguising itself as a blond man.)

"No, it's fine. That one was tricky, yes. So were the words that are pronounced the same, but spelled differently."
