Still? .... Oh, geez .... At least it means she's still here?

[someoneto_carry]

Suppose so. Just...as a toy robot, anyway.

[ectobabble]

It could be a lot worse! Just think of all the stuff she isn't!

Sam had something off with him for close to two months.

[someoneto_carry]

Two months?

And what was that?

[huntersdaughter]

He's not really sure, but he didn't care about anything. He was sort of blunt to the point of hurting feelings. I'm not sure what else he did though.

[variare]

I've had mine last longer than a month more than once.

[someoneto_carry]

Longer than a month?

What was it?

[variare]

There were a couple. Both...weird and I'd rather not talk about, but I haven't heard about them happening to others really.

Usually the really long losses turn out to be the quietest.

[madetothwart]

I have heard of some lasting upwards of six weeks.

[someoneto_carry]

And another two months. [a sigh] So much for it endin' soon.

[madetothwart]

How long has it been going on, may I ask?

[someoneto_carry]

Gettin' closer to three weeks now.

[percepts]

[ she looks up at those replies. whoa. ]

I hope I never get stuck as something weird for that long...

What happened to your friend?

[someoneto_carry]

She's a toy robot.

Least, we're fairly sure it's her.

[percepts]

...Freaky!

What kind of robot? The old models that don't do much, or the creepily lifelike ones?
