Uh. Yeah?

[Perma-Audio]

[my_own_trope]

You were bleeding. Badly by the sound of it.

So what are you? Obviously organic. Human?

[Perma-Audio]

[vandalization]

Yeah. Kinda sucked.

Human, yeah. I take it your another hugeass robot?

[my_own_trope]

What gave me away~?

[vandalization]

Seems to be the running theme of this rock.

[my_own_trope]

Mm, yes, so it would appear.

Your kind are the minority here. But tell me, what sets you apart from the rest of your species? There must be something.

[vandalization]

What sets me apart? That I'm a huge fuckup.

[my_own_trope]

[That wasn't the answer he was looking for...]

Now you've got me curious.

[vandalization]

Yeah? You're gonna stay curious, pal. S'personal.

[my_own_trope]

You tease.

[vandalization]

That's all it takes for you huh?

[my_own_trope]

I set the bar exceedingly low for you. Why? Can you better?
