What's going on the list?

[kievs]

Heavy drinking.

[sentiences]

I don't think that'll do a lot for me. Sorry.

[kievs]

Fine, it's off the list. (Makes sense actually, if he can't eat.)

Well, that's all the stuff that I like to do. Maybe we can go bowling as well or something.

[sentiences]

Sounds good to me.

Have you done a lot of these with other people before?

[kievs]

Yeah. I've done most of them with my boyfriend.

[sentiences]

[ A boyfriend, huh? ]

Was it fun then?

[kievs]

(Alyssa considers this before she answers.)

Sort of. He's weird. (She misses him so much.)

[sentiences]

[ It's sweet and even Dorian isn't immune to that. ]

I hear a little weirdness keeps the relationship alive.

[kievs]

Our relationship's never gonna die if that's the case.

Do you have a boyfriend? Or a girlfriend?

[sentiences]

No, nothing like that. Robots and humans don't usually mix that way.

[ And he's the only other sentient robot out there. ]

[kievs]

Is that something you personally think or is this what you've been told.

(Seems shit.)

[sentiences]

[ His smile flickers, melting into a quiet fondness. ]

My partner told me there was someone for everyone.

. . . That's what I believe.

[kievs]

(She seems satisfied by this answer, and nods.)

I hope you find them.

[sentiences]

So do I.

[kievs]

Maybe I can help.

[sentiences]

[ He gives her a quiet smile. ]

Well. I could use all the help I can get.

[kievs]

Clearly. You haven't even got any interests!

(SHE HAS NOTHING TO WORK WITH)

[sentiences]

They don't usually give robots time off to cultivate interests.

[kievs]

(And it's probably not illegal to do that because he isn't a 'human'. Bastards.)

Well, you have heaps of time off now right.

[sentiences]

I do. I'm struggling a little for sure.

[kievs]

Not used to it?

(That makes sense.)

Have you got time now?

[sentiences]

I do. What are you planning on?

[kievs]

(She had been planning on saying 'lunch', but is abruptly reminded that he can't eat that. This may not work out, Dorian.)

I dunno. Just– though I'd go for a walk or something.

[sentiences]

Would you like some company then?
