"What makes you think I have?"

"A sugar rush, please. Same for her."

"This has my deployment information and mental age, if that's what you mean. It has all my up-to-date specs and mental age even."

"Im not the best at chocolatiering. But i hope its good"

"M-m-malfunctioning? My mechanic would have told me that during my last check up?? I'm guessing you're a mechanic too then. I can't remember the last time I had my neck looked at now that I think about it."
> He takes the business card and stows it into his bag.
"Maybe it's because I had to lower its weight so much?? Is that the issue??
"O-Oh, well, I'd l-love to..." > Elliott stares in shock, turning red as she questions herself... Should she take the flowers? Bonnie tries not to laugh, turning to her drink.

> A leather clad woman enters the bar. She's short enough to be seen as still a child. She carries a cocky look in her eyes however, and a holster at her thighs carries a wicked looking pistol. She seems to be in good spirits and sits down at the bar, oblivious to all that's going on, including the lilim she's sat next to. Her husky voice then calls out.
"Hey! I got promised a free drink here by a maid girl and dickhead. So can I cash that in now? Maybe a big Fringe Weaver?"

"I see, I see~" >Chisa chuckles, nodding- She's never had need of any kind of AR technology, given that she's an android, but she can understand the appeal of it.

>>588398 (Settings are in-person threads. You play as a character from the third person ("He" or "She" instead of "I" or "Me"), and you write all of your words in quotation marks, like "I demand a refund!" and all of your actions in red text >using the right arrow symbol, like:
>He slammed his hand on the bar in anger as he said: "I demand a refund!"
And in setting threads you don't sign your name, because you're not posting online, you're actually in person.
Hope that helps! :)

>It pushes the door open with the mechanism on it's right arm. It's armor looks nice and shiny. It looks around the joint, never having the names of the people it killed clowns with.
