[Something has been bothering Teddie for awhile since he got here. Now that he's a little more situated, he figures he might as well ask now since sitting around isn't giving him any answers.

Look! A video on purpose! He's so proud of himself.]

Hey! I gotta question! It's an important one, too, I promise! If you can just bear with me for a sec, I'd really appreciate it!

[His eyes light up.]

Do robots score?

[Drift spent enough time on Earth to know basic idioms. Plus, it's only helpful to answer the question. What harm could it do, right?]

Anyone in particular?

[He's guessing Wing.]

[kingofthetvworld]

Who, me? I'm mostly into human girls... but... my friends back home aren't here...

[He frowns a little, but then perks up right away!]

Although they're a lot of cute girls here from what I've seen so far~ What about you? Have you ever scored?

[sword_redemption]

There are human girls here, yes. Korra. Annie. Kay.

[He's going to mention Vandal but...that doesn't seem like a really hot idea. Teddie's...not quite her type. He hopes. And Miko...is a little young.]

Me? [He laughs.] I'm six million years old, Teddie. What do you think?

[kingofthetvworld]

[Haha, suggesting that Teddie thinks.]

Yes. A lot.

Can you teach me your ways? Please? You'll come to find that I am an exceptional student. ...Unless there's homework involved, then you can count me out.

[sword_redemption]

Pretty good guess.

[Drift probably shouldn't be laughing so hard, but he can't help it.]

But I think you'd be better studying under someone else.

[brb minor swig of brainbleach at the thought.]

[kingofthetvworld]

Aww, fine...

So... who did you score with? If you don't mind my asking~

[sword_redemption]

[He shrugs, and the smile falters.]

No one here,[unfortunately] so you wouldn't know them.

[kingofthetvworld]

Oh yeah, guess not...

[He frowns, that's not so much fun.]

What about here? Anyone you wanna score with here?

[sword_redemption]

[Not so much fun for Drift, either, if that's any consolation.]

Yes.

But it's not going to happen. [A shrug.]

[kingofthetvworld]

[Gasp]

Never give up, never surrender! What's the problem?

[sword_redemption]

[Wow, little guy sure is invested in what's not going on in Drift's interface array.]

The problem is, the other person has to want to, too.

[kingofthetvworld]

[He's extremely nosy.]

So then we get 'em to want to! Not to worry, I'll be your wingbear. Trust me, I saw it on TV. Just find a way to get them to the bar and I'll introduce you to them as my really cool friend.

[sword_redemption]

[...wut? And Drift starts counting the ways this will not work, and stops counting when he gets to 836.]

That's a really kind offer, Teddie. You're a sweet person. Bear. Whatever. You.

But, [oh frag have to make this good] .... we don't have a bar. [WHEW.]

[kingofthetvworld]

[Oh... Well that's a snag in his plan--NO, WAIT!]

Then we build one! If we build it, they will come!

[sword_redemption]

...that seems like an awful lot of work, though.

[Drift has a point. Sort of.]

[kingofthetvworld]

[Oh... right. And Teddie hates work, he can hardly tolerate stock duty.]

Then we get someone else to do it!

[YES. BRILLIANT.]

[sword_redemption]

[WHEW. Extra relief.]

Right. That's a good plan, Teddie.

[Safe from the wingbear. Which Drift will guess is an actual thing.]
