[Bzzt. Jiro yelps and the communicator falls and lands on something, possibly a table, and you get a view facing up at Jiro's face, which is currently wearing an expression of utter shock. He's looking down at his gloved hand, possibly where he'd just been holding the comm, as if unable to believe it exists.]

[acreepybrat]

Uh, do you not usually have a heartbeat?

But... [obviously he seems to be pleased] I'm glad you're happy about it!

[emomachine]

No, I don't. I am- I was an android. But I'm human now...!

[acreepybrat]

Huh~ [Vaguely wondering what an android is, but hey, the guy seems happy about being human.] That's good then?

Oh. Well... that's pretty cool then. [Oz is definitely kind of curious, but Jiro sounds so happy about being a human that he doesn't want to pry...]

[emomachine]

I will! That is, I plan to.

[He's a little too happy about this to think too much about anything else just yet, anyway.]

[acreepybrat]

Yeah! Eating is a lot of fun, if you don't normally get to do it...
