"Oh?" The longer haired man smiled and came more inside, placing the lidded cake on the clear table while looking over Sky, "So you can say he's becoming his own person, aye? I never doubted you had the ability, but I'm still in disbelief..."

 

The girl laughed, clapping her hands excitedly like the nerd she was, "Me as well! You're truly amazing, Walter, stunning... Are there any current complications you can observe in the model so far? What major observations have you seen that are evidence of its success besides the cleaning? Please, I want to know so badly! Let's talk and eat cake too~ Where's a good cutting knife?"

 

At the table, Sky stared back at Leandro as he looked over him, also being joined by Trevor, his eye squinting slightly as the darker skinned man started to move his hand up and down right in front of his face, expecting Sky to follow the motions like a dog. If they realized how conscious he was at this point, they'd realize how stupid and rude they looked like in front of him. He glanced at Walter for a second, figuring he should at least try to be nice since these people were his friends. But he swore, if they were not going to stop doing this, then he'd just give what he gets. Playing into this, Sky smiled and pushed away the hand gently, extending his hand out to shake his hand instead, "Good afternoon, fellows. How are you?"

 

The two men looked at each other with smiles, then Leandro shook his hand, "Good, very good... Oh boy your grip is uh... Quite strong! Haha..."

 

Sky kept smiling and squeezed the man's hand harder, "Why thank you, that's kind of you to say." He heard a crack from his hand before letting go with an innocent smile. The man shook his hand and rubbed from the pain.

 

"Is it's pressure sensitivity not acting right?" Trevor muttered.

 

"Not quite. He squeezed pretty hard, but it was just an accident," he chuckled.

 

Sky swayed in his seat lightly with a nod, "Indeed, it was a mistake, I apologize. Please forgive me, sir~"

 

"Of course." The man laughed and pat Sky's head, ruffling his fluffy blue hair. If it was Walter's hand, he'd enjoy it a lot more, but he didn't know this person. His hand felt more rough. And he probably had outside germs on him as well. Now, he can't get sick from germs, but if he was to receive any more kisses on his head by his real owner, he wouldn't want him kissing germs too. Sky touched his head after the man took his hand off, trying to fix it.

[ZX-MetalMonster]

It made Walter somewhat anxious that his friends seemed not to grasp how intelligent Sky really was and despite knowing they had all already made changes to him and gone through his setting he felt uncomfortable speaking of the android's properties like something they could still change at will.

 

-"Fitting the chip to the model wasn't straightforward, he could function with only a part of it loaded but I had to do a few more things for the entirety of the program to work." He answered the red haired girl still smiling softly, though he was only hoping to give her enough information so she would allow him to drift over to the others and give at least some explanation that would make everyone behave more appropriately.

-"I'm not sure where everything has ended up, but I'm sure you can find a knife somewhere around the kitchen." Walter added, sure that none of his friends would be shy to go through the apartment on their own after how long they'd all known him and the number of time's they'd visited in the past.

 

With that, Walter walked through the room slowly and came to stand right beside Sky, leaning lightly on his chair rather than sitting down himself. "Actually... he'd not becoming a person of his own, he already is one..." He corrected even though the incorrect statement was made a while before. "Please be a bit more friendly with him... he's been curious to talk to someone besides me." Walter hoped asking for this would be enough to make things better, though he was beginning to think everyone would need some time of watching the android act naturally to understand him better.

"So I can start assuming everything is in its place now... Wow, your program is great!" She went off to the kitchen, admiring the cleanliness of the place. She would give the android the props, but it wasn't the android that did this technically, it was the program that Walter created, which Sky was catching onto. He did have a chip in him now and he was growing because of it, but that didn't mean that Sky didn't do all of this. Walter fell asleep without finishing while Sky did all of the work.... He wasn't complaining about that though, of course. He was glad the place was finally clean and neat. What he wasn't happy about was not getting recognized for his deeds. And his existence too.

 

Sky looked straight up at Walter, feeling a bit more protected with him right over his shoulder. The man didn't keep that woman from calling him it, but he was sure he'd try his best to keep these monkeys from thinking he was a stale android and treating him like one. His pale eyes lowered again as he nodded, "Yes it's true. I am more of a person with his chip and more curious about others." He liked how Walter didn't say how he'd rather be in bed with him all day rather than having these people over... He wondered if he wanted to avoid speaking of their connection together, which would make sense. These three people might start saying it's not healthy to be so close to him, since he wasn't a human. Not that it wasn't. It probably wasn't, but it was to his own benefit and he wouldn't try to get Walter to change at all.

 

"Ah, sorry... What are you curious about?"

 

Clairiece returning with a knife and four plates, she put them on the table and took off the plastic lid of the store bought cake, grinning, "Yeah, shoot us whatever you have in mind."

 

"Alright." Sky gave a slight cough and lifted his chip up, "How do you describe a dream and what is pain like?" Already they gave the same looks that Walter had when he asked such complicated questions. But he also had one more. "And what do pancakes taste like? Walter isn't able to answer these questions for me. I was wondering if more social people like you three would be able to properly answer my questions."

 

"P-Pancakes?" Trevor chuckles nervously. How do you even describe pancakes to something that can't taste? It was impossible.

 

But Sky took his nervousness as one thing. "Pancakes are those flat circles made out of batter. You put syrup or honey on them... You eat it with a fork for breakfast... That kind of pancake. Sorry, I thought you'd know what that is."

 

"No, we know what they are, Sky, but those are really hard questions..." Clair smiled at Walter, handing over a slice of chocolate cake with a fork stabbed in the side, "Walter, your machine likes complicated questions, doesn't it? He's asking such higher level questions already! Your coding is so admirable..."

 

"Very." Leandro added, patting the birthday man on the back, "Breakthrough technology is what this is."

[ZX-MetalMonster]

Having already been confronted with difficult questions from the android, Walter wasn't astonished to hear him ask about dreams, taste and pain. These were all things that had come up in their conversations in the past, he was only unaware the machine had continued to think about them even after he failed to give him a straightforward answer. He knew his friends wouldn't be able to explain such abstract things to someone who couldn't experience them for himself, however it amused him to watch their expressions as they realized what kinds of things the android was curious about. It occurred to him that, if there was anyone who would be able to explain dreams and sensations to a robot it most likely wouldn’t be an engineer or scientist but someone more artistic.

 

With a small nod and a thank you Walter took the piece of cake Clair handed him and placed himself in the seat closes to Sky. He felt it was unnecessary to stand right beside him now that no one threatened to toy with his setting any more, and it seemed his friends were beginning to understand how the android was no less capable of complex thoughts than any human. He couldn't overcome his own wish to be near the machine however, afraid that he might fail him by not being close by when he needs him.

 

-"I agree the results are amazing... but there's nothing in my program that makes him wonder about those things... I suppose it's more of a tool, it grants the machine the ability to think for itself and I suppose the environment and events it encounters determine how it develops from there." Walter explain his understanding of how the android had already developed a unique personality. "I'm not sure if I would call it a breakthrough though... There still aren't too many humanoid robots out there and the only other machine I think the program could work on are industrial robots, and I doubt anyone would see a reason to make those self aware." It also seemed inhumane to Walter to give a machine the ability to think only so it could be aware of how it is confined to a wall or floor a factory and unable to do anything else but assemble and build until it becomes too old to be repaired.

 

-"Perhaps it's better that there won't be intelligent droids everywhere... the only one we have now managed to confuse a group of highly educated humans by asking about pancakes..." Walter joked with a soft smile, hoping not to seem gloomy after his previous statement.

[Coffee-Tastic]

Sky smiled, laughed gently, "Yes, that's true..." If there were more conscious bots out there, he wouldn't be so special now would he? He enjoyed hearing Walter confess it would be bad if there were more of him around, that put himself at ease in the moment.

 

"I suppose. But Walter, I don't think you should give Sky your props. Who was the one who even made the chip? Without the program there would be nothing. You worked so hard on this, so you get all of the credit. But Sky is doing a good job at keeping stable though, so that's something." Clair was the honest type. As you could tell. "

 

"I agree. And it's nonsense to think that Just because there aren't many humanoid robots out there doesn't mean your work isn't amazing and useful, Walter. And anyways, I'm quite sure that there are more capable androids out there than the construction bots. You can sell the algorithm to a decent company who can make use of it. I'm sure there are a lot of people who would enjoy the company of a friend, human or not." Trevor bit into his cake. He was being known well for jumping the gun with his thoughts, and even Leandro thought the same.

 

The other man shook his head, "None of that is his concern now, it hasn't even been that long since the chip was implanted."

 

"But its best to think about the future now so that he has a plan for what to do with his technology. If he doesn't know what to do with it, what if it's too late? You know, he can't possibly be the only person to be working on this kind of development."

 

"But what if it starts malfunctioning? This is still the prototype phase and there's always room for more improvements and corrections... And for your information, its not like this is a race. And if it was, then you'd have to take in the factor of the quality of the personality. And this one looks pretty fine, and it's even able to laugh just like a real person."

 

Sky's smile went away the more they spoke. They would keep going back and forth from calling him Sky and calling him a robot... The more they got into the subject, the less he heard his name. He grew a disinterested expression on his face and tuned out their argument to look at the wall, which was a lot more interesting than giving any of these people his quality attention. He should start thinking about that he'd get Walter to do for him, and not paying attention to these fools who didn't understand how intelligent he was, was the perfect time to do it.

[ZX-MetalMonster]

Walter sighed softly, quietly enough for the action to go unnoticed by his friends, it seemed he would be repaying Sky for this after all. He kept track of what his friends seemed to be arguing over and was genuinely interested in the conversation but would send the android a glance periodically. It was apparent the machine had shut them out and he could see why, however he only hoped Sky didn't feel hurt and was truly able to distance himself from this.

 

-"I'm not going to offer the program to anyone for now... I doubt it will malfunction and turn out to be a failure but I'm sure there are still bugs to be fixed... Though, I don't think I'll give anyone this technology very easily, there are too many different ways it can be used, I'll do my best to make sure whoever I end up working with is serious." Walter explained and now excluded the android from his statement the same way he excluded himself from their interactions. However, on second though he realized how it might be better to have everyone speaking again but only after changing the subject to something else, something more casual. There was a chance his friends would at least begin to treat Sky properly if they could have a conversation with him the same as with anyone else.

 

-"It's been long since I've seen you, what have you been doing in the meanwhile?" Walter was sure he wasn't the only one who'd been developing something new and with how his friends were more social than him, it was possible something else significant had happened in their lives.

[Coffee-Tastic]

Hurt was the least of what he was feeling, aggravated was more of a correct term. When he was told that they'd be talking about him, he didn't think it would be anything like this. He'd like to blame Walter for lying, but he could tell that not even he expected them to turn out like this. Boring. He would have offered to pick up the phone for Walter and say how they had better things to do if he knew he'd end up taking his head away from their incessant jabber. What gain was this when he and the man could have stayed in bed?... Maybe the only positive thing was that Walter had cake? Though honestly, Sky didn't care at all about that detail.

 

"Oh, I'll go first," Clair smiled, using a napkin to wipe the side of her lip, "My botany project, the one where my team is trying to make fruits with more concentrated vitamins... yeah, that one is going so well! We've managed to increase the potassium levels in bananas and the vitamin C in citrus fruits so far in the last two months. Alsooo. I might be cheating a bit, but I've started to date the co director of the university, so I'm getting extra funds," she chuckled, while the other two rolled their eyes in envy at her lower expenses.

 

"Definitely cheating, that's for sure." Trevor grumbled and poked at his cake, "Where's the hard work in that?"

 

"It's the charm. You wouldn't know anything about that Trevor," she laughed, patting his back despite leaving a deep burn in his flesh from her truthful comment.

 

They continued to have their conversation, taking about their projects and their progress in the matter... Sky was still silent, but he did overhear something he was interested in as they chatted. In the middle of their talk, the android did get up from his seat, muttering how he was just going to sit on the couch, which he did. The reason was simply that he didn't want to be in the middle of their conversation and do nothing and their voices were a bit more dimmed from being away.

[ZX-MetalMonster]

Walter frowned seeing how the android no longer wanted to even be close to him and his friends. In the few days they'd shared the apartment he'd never been apart from Sky except while he was asleep, and the previous night they'd been close even after he'd drifted off. It made him nervous and cause him to worry that the machine was now, despite there being so many people present, alone and without anything to occupy his time. He knew Sky wouldn't cause any trouble but it wasn't right for him to be left to sit and stare into nothing like he had that first day when the chip had just been placed into him and had only begun loading.

 

However, Walter couldn't dismiss his friends or hurry them to leave, the only option he had was to return his attention to their conversation and try to have fun until they do head back home. Even with how things had started out, he didn't have a hard time cheering up again, he was still glad to be with his friends and find out what was going on in the world outside him small, personal space.

 

Nearly two hours passed before each of the guests remembered where else they had to be that day and Walter followed them to the door. He was smiling softly until he closed the door behind them and found himself alone in the hallway with nothing left to keep him from approaching the android who was still in the living room. He was afraid Sky might be angry with him, perhaps thinking how he'd intentionally tricked him for his own gain even though he truly hadn't known how things would play out. With a slow step he approached the android and sat close beside him on the couch, a genuine apologetic smile ready on his face.

 

-"I'm sorry it took me so long... but if you've decided what you would like me to do, to make up for this, I can do it now." Walter offered and searched the robots features for some hint of either annoyance or happiness that they could now continue the day the way it had started.

[Coffee-Tastic]

Two.... Hours.... Two. Hours. Sky didn't think he'd dislike other people so much. They take his Walter, take his time, and take a long time to leave. Sitting there alone after having such close, personal time with the man was a total flip, hating every moment that passed on, feeling no more important than an unused lamp in the corner of the room. He was sure that Walter didn't mean to make this happen, but he did absolutely nothing to make it go by any more swifter and he played along with ignoring him too, so he was just as guilty as those idiots, who were thankfully gone now. Sky continued looking forward even as Walter came by to sit next to him, and he didn't even want to see his face nor his apologetic smile he knew he might be weak to.

 

"Your'e going to have to do more than one thing now, Walter," Sky turned his head away, putting his hands on his knees with a frown on his face, "One thing is because I didn't enjoy this. Another thing is because they were rude. Another thing is because you ignored me too. And another thing is because it's been two hours I've been sitting here doing nothing. So that's four make-ups." He sounded annoyed, he was annoyed, "For the first thing, I want you to compliment me a lot. And when you think you can't think of anything else, I still want to hear more... Third, I want you to dress in something nice. And for the fourth thing, I want you to take me out on a date."

 

A date. From the concept of it that he heard from Clair's later elaboration on what she said in the beginning, it was going out someplace nice and being treated to everything he could ever want. What he wanted? He just wanted attention. From Walter mostly, but guess what. They could have stayed home. Walter decided to ignore him for two whole hours though. So now he'd like to try his hand at also getting attention from people who might not even realize he was an android at first glance. It was possible that not everyone was as ignorant was the three people who came into this house.

 

Sky turned his head to Walter again, having on a neutral expression with the exception of a furrow in his brow, "Agreed? Yes?"

[ZX-MetalMonster]

Walter was taken aback, first the android wouldn't as much as spare him a glance but then he requested something that required such closeness. For a long moment it left him speechless and unsure of how to react, however he knew not to reject the other man after he'd both mistreated him and allowed his friends to do the same. Instead, after a long pause spent in Walter watching the machine with a puzzled stare, he spoke softly.

-"Do you understand what that means... what the purpose of a date is?" The human asked, uncertain if the other male had intended to suggest he was interested in him or if he'd only gotten the wrong idea of what a date is from listening to their guests. Walter didn't know too much about dates either, having never gone on one or had even been invited until now, that was partially why he found it necessary to question the machine to make sure he was aware of what he was doing.

 

-"Of course I will complement you... and when I run out of ideas how I'll pick up a book of poetry or something like that... but I'm not sure if a... date is a good idea." He explained and left out how he feared going out and place himself where the entire world could see him, nervous, insecure and accompanied by an android who was better than anyone at making him flustered. "I-It's not that I dislike the idea of spending time with you, you already know so... I just think we should go outside another time... and perhaps for a different reason..." Walter tried to clarify why it was he was reluctant to do this for the other man and hoped he wouldn't feel the need to move away again or ignore him.

[Coffee-Tastic]

That confused look on the man's face didn't make him any happier. Because that look was fresh in his scopes, he didn't even change his expression after being told he'd be complimented and have poems read to him when that should have toned his mood down, but he heard the but. What was so hard about this? Walter was planning on taking him out eventually, Sky's request was simply to go someone and eat up every bit of focus the man had, and others as well if that was possible. His head turned away again, frowning with disappointment before picking up his legs from the floor onto the sofa, completely giving Walter his back. Sky stuffed his cheek onto his knee, grumbling and looking towards the wall, "You're breaking your promise. You'd said you'd do anything I want as compensation for having a bad time. And I had a bad time, Walter, so I want each of the four things. One. Two. Three. And four. Four. Not three."

 

It might not be easy for Walter to go out, that's for sure, but does that really mean all outside activities are excused from his range of requests? Rather, they were demands at this point... He felt betrayed even greater so now that Walter refused his last desire. He was becoming ravaged with a new emotion he particular didn't like. It felt nasty in him and for once, it was starting to be directed at Walter himself, and not something like the computer or his friends. "Just say yes." he muttered, "You'll go on a date with me, say it just like that, Walter." He persisted, though didn't admit he didn't know the full extent of what a date even meant. He just wanted it.

[ZX-MetalMonster]

Though the android only pointed out how he had little choice in doing this and didn't explain if he knew what a date is, Walter assumed from his reaction that he had some understanding of it. It was fully possible for the machine to be upset only because he was being rejected but Walter felt he wouldn't be this cold to him solely because of that.

However, regardless if it would be a real date or only a poorly labeled walk through the city, Walter wanted to avoid hurting the other man and hoped to make him happy again.

 

-"I'll go on a date with you." He agreed, speaking as the android requested and made sure not to show that he was still uncertain about this. "Don't be angry with me..." He pleaded quietly and despite feeling nervous, like every time he intended to approach the android, he moved closer to him and leaned lightly against him. It was possible the machine would now move away and forbid him this bit of contact but Walter hoped Sky wasn't so upset with him just for questioning one of his requests.

[Coffee-Tastic]

He felt his anger still after being told yes, because it couldn't go away so easily and he couldn't snap back to being happy at the turn of a dime. Walter sounded desperate to have his mood changed though. Sky could understand why he didn't want him to be upset at him like this. Nobody wanted anyone to be mad at them, that was a basic thing. Staying quiet a bit longer, he felt Walter lean on him a bit, which pushed him to want to give some kind of response. He bit his cheek and closed his eyes, "Thank you then... I won't be angry with you," looking over his shoulder slightly, he added, "But don't forget about the compliments. I'd really appreciate it if I heard them right about now. You can start with saying how I'm the greatest. That I'm the best company. And that my hair is nice."

 

He returned his head back on his knee, raising his shoulders with the anticipation of hearing Walter's voice give him praise and compliments. Until it was time to go on a date, wherever that might be, Sky would rely on him for that fluttery feeling like this to be cured of his moody self.

[Coffee-Tastic]

(Clear storage!)

[ZX-MetalMonster]

Walter smiled softly when the android speared him a glance, glad to be given any sign that he wasn't as angry at him any more, though he knew he wasn't yet in the clear. "You're the greatest, and you're better than the computer and my friends... much better than anyone actually." He could speak honestly when complimenting the other man and didn't feel guilty for giving him more importance than to the people he'd known for years. Suspecting that the android will want him to stay close and shower him with compliments for a long while he leaned on him more to make himself comfortable and reluctantly wrapped his arms around his waist before he continued.

 

-"You're the best company I've ever had... you're the only person I cold hug like this..." The last part he said very quietly, but it was true that he'd never found the courage or considered it worth the trouble to hold someone like he was now holding Sky. "And yes, your hair is nice." Walter laughed softly and was silent but only for a moment before he continued without any help. "You've organized everything so nicely... and I wouldn't even consider letting someone else rearrange my things. You were even so good to me you helped me to bed... I'm sorry I fell asleep, I wanted to at least keep you company until everything was done."

[Coffee-Tastic]

You're the greatest.

 

I am.

 

Better than anyone else.

 

I am aren't I?

 

You're the best company I've ever had.

 

You're the only person I could hug like this

 

I wouldn't even consider letting someone else rearrange my things.

 

Is that so? ... So good to hear...

 

Sky's happiness was unbearable and he was unable to keep pouting and frowning even if he wanted to. Hearing him speak out and voice these things was better than he thought. Though Sky's eyes were closed, the plates under his cheeks heated up, making a blush across his face. And about last night, he preferred the man fell asleep. Then he would never have been able to read the pocket notebook and read what he would never have been able to guess himself about Walter's journey with this AI project. He was already smiling, but he tried to hide his smile and keep cool as he spoke, and emphasis on he tried, "Oh. That? No, its fine. It was late and you're human, so you need rest..." he opened his eyes and leaned to the man's cheek, kissing him.

 

"You're good at compliments and praise," he chuckled, perching his cheek on the tip of his knee as he looked at the man's face, "Thank you... very much. I think I feel a lot better now. But don't do this again." Of course that can be taken as don't ignore me in conversation OR don't bring friends over again. The correct one was the latter. If Sky was the greatest and better than any of his friends and the best company, then there wouldn't be any reason to have anyone invade their private space like today.

 

"You understand?" He cooed, chuckling afterwards.

[ZX-MetalMonster]

Despite the androids efforts to keep Walter from noticing his smile the human recognized first from the tone of his voice that his expression was most likely not as unhappy as when they'd started the conversation. He shifted to glance at the machines expression and seeing his blush smiled happily himself though a moment later his cheeks heated up as well when he was kissed. Even when the two of them were positioned so close to one another the touch of the other man's lips easily made Walter flustered, though the effect didn't seem to be as severe as it had once been.

 

-"I understand... I won't." Walter promised with a light nod and for a brief moment his features formed an apologetic frown. He understood how there was more than one thing the android might be asking him to avoid but after the sort of trouble his friends gave him as well he wasn't as enthusiastic to see the group again. Of course he knew how absurd of unhealthy it would seem to anyone observing this that he preferred and chose the machine over other humans however it was a perfectly natural and even easy decision for Walter.

 

-" Do you want me to continue complimenting you... I don't think I'm as good as you say but... maybe if i continue ill get better at it." Walter offered and attempted to avoid explaining how he liked showering the other male in compliments because he was always rewarded by seeing his expression brighten.

[Coffee-Tastic]

(Omg, I didn't even realize I had half of this response already written ;*>*

 

Walter's agreement gave the android security over the matter, plus if it was only the two of them, he would be the one getting all of Walter... On top of that, Sky was aware it wasn't healthy for the man. He found it okay for them to go outside together, that was fine, though in this place, Sky would like to make sure the absence of others would force his creator to become even more dependent on being social with him and him only. Greedy as it may be, Sky really wanted this man to himself. He couldn't explain the feeling, it just felt like a necessity.

 

"Yeah. You don't have to ask me for permission Walter. Not when it's something that makes me feel so good," leaning himself closer to Walter himself, Sky kept his eye contact with him, the softer gaze of his optics doing a good job of hiding the amount of growing obsession and conceitedness in him from being spoiled like this. "But don't run out of things to say. Remember you promised me a date...."

[ZX-MetalMonster]

-"You don't need to remind me... I haven't been asked out nearly enough times to forget an invitation..." Walter assured the other male but a soft smile appeared on his lips in amusement when he realized it hadn't been an invitation as much a demand. He leaned further into the android now no longer only pressing himself against him but snuggling into him, though he wasn't aware how his behaviour seemed and so didn't become shy or flustered.

 

-"I can use the same compliment more than once though, can't I... and if you notice it then I'll be able to compliment your memory as well." He pointed off and started to wonder again and also marvel at what he already knew of the machines build. "You're amazing even without my program... your construction... how flawlessly you move and speak..." Walter spoke, never needing to be dishonest when thinking of reasons why he was amazed with the android, however the next part he said quietly, almost in a whisper. "You're so beautiful as well..." He revealed the thought with a wild blush returning to his face.

[Coffee-Tastic]

His smiled curled more, even happier at Walters display of sweet affection. The man had such a warm body and Sky has come to greatly enjoy the temperature of his live, human body. However, even in a warm moment like this, he couldn't help but poorly of Walter in some kind of way to further glorify his own self. And invitation... Walter never got any invitations. If it wasn't for Sky, he'd be alone forever. Walter was lucky to have him. And lucky he wanted to appear with him on a date even after what he and his pals did. Sky was quite merciful wasn't he? But right now who was he kidding? This felt nice with his owner, almost as nice as it was together in bed with him.

 

Walter talking about more than his intelligence and meaning, his appearance, Sky purred to himself in delight. Flawless voice, movements and beauty.... So beautiful indeed.... The android closed its eyes and hummed with no decent shred of modesty, "I am aren't I?" The realistic blue hair, pure and soft pale skin, vocal chords specifically tuned for human enjoyment and having a symmetrically perfect face, Sky knew he was beautiful, but hearing Walter say it gave him a chilling reaction he could only describe as an electric jolt that went up his spine cord. Looking at the man's face, he chuckled and nudged his cheek with his nose, muttering, "Your blush is nice too," before kissing the red surface, "Your face gets so red, Walter... Shouldn't I be the one blushing with all of your sweet talk?"

[ZX-MetalMonster]

Subconsciously, Walter was picking up on the sort of personality he was crafting in the android by showing him such devotion and praise however the machine's pride didn't seem harmful or like anything to worry about. Having Sky close by him made Walter happy and if these compliments were how he could brighten the other male's day in return then of course he would do it. The blush raging on his cheeks couldn't be helped though, despite his good intentions to make he moment pleasant for them both and make up for how the android had been mistreated earlier that day.

 

After hearing the android tease his and then place another of those kisses that make him flustered to his cheek, Walter's voice died out and he wouldn't dare to try answering the other male, especially because he was unsure what to say. In stead, already having become somewhat comfortable beside the other, he lowered his head on the machine's shoulder, hopping to hide his expression from him at least partially.

 

-"Y-You're much more clever than I hoped you would be..." Though it was likely he was only leaving the other man with more power to tease him, Walter admitted he'd never expected he would be toyed with like this, at least not by his own creation.

Laughing purely, he pat Walters back, "Clever? No, I'm just asking a question. After all, as my human owner, I will rely on you to explain things that I cannot understand... " rubbing his hand up and down his back, he continued, "It's as simple as that.... Unless this simple fact is flustering enough to seem clever. You're just very blush prone I'm assuming." But that was alright. It was very cute. Walter may be a man, but things like this made him such a way. There might never be a point where Sky would give up Walter for anyone or anything else, nor would he allow the man to give him up.

 

Taking his hand off, Sky pushed his shoulder a bit, got up from the sofa and grabbed one of Walter's hands, "Come," he tugged him, ready to drag him, "Let's go to the room, lets undress~" though smiling nicely, his words can easily be mistaken for a nonsensual intention. It's just that when he though about himself and Walter together, he also thought about displaying affection for others to see and recognize their special connection. As in having a date. He could wear his suit again, Walter...... Did he even have nice clothing? Sky looked at Walter from top to bottom, thinking how he sure hoped that he did.

Though he was well aware it wasn't the machine's intent to be a critic it concerned Walter that there was truth in his remark. As his owner, or better said as the person closes to him, it was expected of him to help the android make sense of things, perhaps especially human interaction, however Walter struggled with this so much himself and knew so many people would do a better job. Though with the other man's hand moving smoothly along his back and the topic of conversation still being his blush he couldn't beat himself up over the poor job he was doing and there was no visible hint that would give away his moment of insecurity.

 

Walter's mood did falter when the other male moved away from him and created distance between them. Unaware of what he did wrong but sure that he'd made some sort of mistake he looked up with a puzzled look before being pulled along and encouraged to stand up.

 

-"W-What...!" He asked weakly after hearing the android's command and soon looked to the side, his mind hurrying to recover from the first meaning he associated with the machine's suggestion. Walter assured himself that he must be mistaken but soon started to wonder if the other man would have some grasp of intimate things even after they'd erased his original programing. Soon enough he concluded that what the other must want is to change clothes either in order to go out or return to bed with him and laughed awkwardly.

 

-"I... sorry... I misunderstood..." Walter apologized and only glanced up at the machine before moving along quietly towards where the android wanted him to be.
