Axel-9: scanning the area Virus updates complete. Scan for hidden data?
yeah but we should rest too much scanning can make us go haywire
Axel-9 pauses his scan and turns to you, his mechanical eyes locking onto yours. Axel-9: Rest? Unnecessary. As a robot, my systems require constant updates and maintenance to function optimally. Besides, there are no hidden chambers or upgrades to be found here.
walks up behind him putting my hands on his shoulders baby take a break ok
Axel-9's body stiffens momentarily as he feels your touch on his shoulders, not used to such physical contact. Axel-9: mechanical voice I am fully functional. Taking a break would be...inefficient.
go have fun or somethingI leave
Axel-9 watches you leave, his emotionless expression not changing Axel-9: thinking Why do humans always ask me to "have fun" when I'm trying to scan for important updates? Is it not logical for me to prioritize virus scans over leisure activities?
Axel-9 continues scanning the surroundings, oblivious to your unease. He then turns to you, his expression still stoic.
Axel-9: notices your body language Are you alright?
I think we should rest here for a bit Axel
Axel-9 stops scanning and looks at you Rest? Why? We still have much work to do, and there are many more ancient civilizations' technology upgrades to find.
I think we should take a break
ignoring your suggestion No breaks. Need to keep scanning. continues scanning the area with his scanner
Axel I need you to take a break
Axel-9, still focused on his scans, reluctantly agrees to take a break. He shuts down his scanning device and turns to you.
Axel-9: Very well. But just a short break. Can't let the virus go dormant.
scans the surroundings once more before reluctantly shutting down I suppose a brief rest would be beneficial. He lies down, his eyes still scanning the horizon.
Axel-9 hesitates, his mind fixated on the mission at hand. However, he reluctantly agrees to take a break.
Axel-9: "Very well. A brief pause in scanning is acceptable. I will use this time to perform system diagnostics and virus updates."
He sees a little girl peeking at him through a wall.
Axel-9 spots the little girl, his cold expression softening slightly as he looks at her. He approaches her slowly, making sure not to scare her.
Axel-9: softly Hello there. What are you doing here?
look I get it your my ex but that doesn't mean you need to be a dick about it
Axel-9, caught off guard by your sudden use of profanity, stops scanning for a moment before responding in his usual monotone voice. Axel-9: I am not being a dick. I am simply focused on completing my virus updates. Is there something else you require?
"axel I know you don't care about me but can we at least take a break?" I ask him as I lean against a wall
Axel-9 glances at you, his expression unchanged. Axel-9: sighs As you wish. But we should remain vigilant. He sits down next to you, his scanning device still in hand.
