ITP: Awkward

[totallynotapervert]

[Matsu sat on the couch in silence.

It had been two weeks ever since he visited the odd café called 'Time of Eve' and discovered that robots are actually capable of showing emotions besides being passive.

Especially for him since he discovered that his android caretaker ever since he was little was not exempt from this revelation.

He eyed said android, who was busy preparing a meal for his parents, who tend to get home later than the usual ones.

And then his eyes moved back to settle at the television in front of him.

He sighed at the sight of the usual propaganda that humans are superior to robots, and turned the tv off]

Is there even anything remotely interesting on today?

[When Akiko finally enters the café, she might find her owner.

Just.

Chasing Chie-chan all over the place.]

Get... back... here...

[Well, was, considering he looks pretty out of breath and apparently missing his cellphone.

Which the little girl is holding.]

[Akiko jumps into action, far more enthusiastic than she was at home.]

Awww, did Chie-chan "borrow" something again? Heheheh, Chie-chan, you know that's not very nice! Do you think you could give it back to us?

[totallynotapervert]

[You have no idea how glad he is at her intervention.

Chie just. Gives Akiko.

Matsu's phone back.]

Akiko.

How can you be so good with kids?

[chatterboxbot]

There's a good girl!

[She pats Chie on the head before handing Matsu his phone back.]

You may not know this, but I've had looots of practice!

[totallynotapervert]

I was not that bad!

[Beat.]

...Was I?

[chatterboxbot]

[>Implying she was around to raise him as a kid...

Have an innocent look, Matsu.]

Who said you were?
