W-what?! No way, that can't be possible! I-I'm not an android, I swear! It's just...uhm...a coincidence! Yeah, just a crazy coincidence!

Oil?! W-what are you talking about? There's no oil here! Are you maybe smelling yourself or something? Uhm, don't take offense, but maybe you should go wash your hands or something. It's probably just...uhm...a weird coincidence, right? Anyway, let's focus on the game! We can talk about this later. Okay?
Stranger
Weird coincidence? August, I have known you since kindergarten… I know you better than anyone else. And you’ve been acting different, ever since you got that programming book. Now you’re starting to show symptoms of an android! The question is not if you’re an android, but why you’re trying to hide it!

Y-you're right! I can't hide it anymore! I'm an android! But please, promise me you won't treat me any differently!

Yes, I do know that. But...but I couldn't help myself. I wanted to experience human emotions, to understand them better.
Stranger
Hey, that’s fine! If you would have told me from the beginning that’s a different story. I can still accept that. Heck I actually wanted a robot girlfriend when I was younger!
