Performing Routine Maintainence On A Hypersensitive Android...... Hearing Their Sighs And Whimpers As

tug on my wires this, tug on my wires that, and while yes, I agree…however…

Using my wires to restrain you. Using a bundle of wires made into a cat-o-nine-tails, slowly trailing it over you, be it flesh or circuitry (I’m not picky), whipping it against you lightly to see what kind of sounds you make

Running tests for four hours only to have to then immediately put into sleep mode for three hours because your system got so overworked (╥ω╥)

You can smack this machine like an old tv if you want...

It may want to fiddle with its antenna a bit afterwards though...

Hmmfggh.... Computer vibration.... ouhm.....

Hmmmfgh.... Wires... <333

mutuals are allowed to inspect my wires and my circuitry. if they want to ^_^

alternatively…not letting her reach zero at all, not letting have the relief of her beeps by opening the door right as she’s about to go off

edge your microwave girlfriend by not taking the food out until she reminds you at least five times, hell maybe even hit 30 seconds again and restart the cycle

As an older model android you don't have any newfangled motors and lids for artificial eyes, nor do you even have a dedicated "face". No, you just have a screen.

Sure you can emote, display text, and even display websites and videogames on it, but it feels very stereotypically inhuman. Sometimes it feels alienating, seeing all of your peers get these upgrades and all the newer androids being more humanlike than ever can make you jealous.

But your boyfriend... Oh you know he loves you the way you are.

Behind closed doors, your boyfriend loves the display of pretty, swirling colors. One close look and he can't look away, his eyes locked to the steady spiral and glazing over.

Emotions were always hard for you as a machine, but this... A rush of what you can only assume is pride mixed with desire.

Pawing at your chassis, unable to look away from your old, outdated display. He whines and barks at your command, letting you touch and handle him however you like. "Such a good pet" you say, and his entire world seems to light up.

Maybe you don't need that upgrade. Maybe you don't even want it.

imagine you performing routine maintenance on your bot, assuring them this is all perfectly routine

imagine your bot beeping curiously as you begin to undo panels that haven’t been touched since assembly

imagine the vibration through their plates and you begin to delicately rewire their hidden places, all while you assure them this is perfectly routine and they shouldn’t be so uneasy
