[A long time with his arm friend...]

Does he need to sleep a lot?

[awol]

He does need to recharge... but normally he can respond even then.

[ as he taps around a bit on the surface, as though searching for something, the arm suddenly speaks: ]

Reptiles are naturally good at playing the piano because they really know their scales.

[ he snorts ]

... That's something.

[pathopen]

He can speak!

[And tell jokes, but the speaking part is so surprising!]

[awol]

Normally he doesn't know when to shut up.

Must be a holdover, [ turning his hand over. ] He's what we call an AI... an artificial intelligence.

[pathopen]

AI... are AI common?

[awol]

They're an important part of our society where I come from. Very smart andd capable.

Some drive cars, others assist with controlling mechs, and others do very basic tasks. Zhanlu does all of this.

[pathopen]

All of it? He must be one of the smartest.

[awol]

[ a small nod ]

Smartest in the entire galaxy.

[ a beat ]

He does do just one more thing in this state.

[pathopen]

Really? What else does he do?

[He can't help being curious and interested. There's so much he's never gotten to see.]
