Something is telling me I'm not in Kansas anymore. And this doesn't look anything like Oz.

So anyone want to fill me in? I mean these Acolytes, they're alright but really, it's kinda weird talking to someone that towers over you like they do. [A faint wry laugh at that. It's not funny but he's going to try.] Though really, pretty impressive there's robots quite as tall as that, not an every day sight. At least where I come from, guess it's not so odd around here, huh?

Speaking of filling, if anyone can let me know where I can get some water? I'd be much obliged.

So I'm willing to bet most, if not all the robots around here are taller than I am aren't they? [He's just gonna have to get used to looking up. Shoe on the other foot, poetic justice, all that.

Rabbit'd think it was hilarious no doubt about that.]

Appreciate you bringin' that in for me.

[neverputincharge]

[Yeah, you're...probably about the smallest bot he's seen.]

Yeah...there's plenty smaller than me, but none are quite, uh....human sized. [He does crouch down at least, but he's still pretty big.] Hey, can't have you show up, then die from not havin' water.

[He gestures to the acolyte that followed him, who steps forward and offers Spine the water containers they brought. Bulkhead tilts his head.]

You built by humans?

[eyestothesky]

Fair enough, not many of us back home either.

[He accepted the containers with a murmur of thanks to the acolyte before being drawn by that question.]

Sure was. Colonel Peter Walter I built my brothers and I back in 1896.

[neverputincharge]

[His eyes widen some.]

Really? The only other other human made robots I've met here, are only two years old or less.

[eyestothesky]

Not too surprising, there weren't many folk making automatons at that point.

Now that regular science and tech are catchin' up with Walter smarts we've got more scientists making 'bots. [Why yes he's biased, his family is the best, why do you ask?]
