[ It sounds like fun! But almost everything does. ]
I don't really have a list. Everything's kind of . . . fresh, in a way. I know how it works and what it means, but I've never done any of . . . anything.
no subject
[ Jim chuckles at that, genuinely endeared. He'll keep that in mind, definitely. ]
'Everything' is pretty broad. You're not making this easy on me, you know? [ But okay, thinking... ] There are the movies. But— we can't really talk a lot while watching, so. We can go to a bar? I mean, I figure you can't drink anything, but there are some comfortable places around where we can sit and chat. Or a karaoke bar. Can you sing? [ He shrugs. ] Or we can just walk around aimlessly all afternoon. I wouldn't mind that, either. I could just show you around some.
[ It's really hard to resist the urge to want to show Dorian everything right this instant!!! Please excuse his excitement. ]
no subject
[ Since he can simply tap into the network and watch anything he wants. Information is easily absorbed into his databanks. He's not sure if the experience would yield anything. Singing though . . . Dorian brightens. ]
I can sing. I enjoy singing, though it riles my partner up. But I'm also fine with chatting, though you won't get much out of me in a bar.
no subject
[ Okay so no movies. They can just pick something else, no problem. ]
Sounds like a fun guy. [ It's more of a playful tease than anything, and Jim chuckles a bit. ] Don't like bars much?
no subject
I just don't see the appeal.
no subject
[ Shrugging, he adds with a lopsided smile. ] If all else fails, we can go feed some birds?
no subject
[ Because John is terrible. ]
But we can try it.
no subject
[ Jim nods, happy to go along with whatever. He just wants a chance to talk to Dorian anyway, and get to know him better. The setting really isn't that important. ]
There are a lot of street stands and nice places to go sightseeing here, anyway. The Quarantine is small but pretty and welcoming. Plus, there's always nature and the abandoned city beyond the wall, if you ever get restless like me.
no subject
[ Restless? Dorian doesn't know. He's never been restless. Right now Dorian feels a little pumped, a little lost. A lot of everything that he's never had to deal with before. ]
I guess I might try the parks. Other places.
no subject
[ That is kind of what restlessness feels like, in a way. Dorian will likely notice it even more as time goes on and he starts to miss the excitement of his daily life. ]
Let's head to the park, then. Go from there. You can tell me a little about your world.
no subject
All right. But I don't think there's a lot to say.
no subject
What's it like, where you live? Are androids common there, or are you completely unique? I mean— I still think you're unique either way. You know what I mean.
no subject
Androids or synthetics are mostly common with the police force. Though there are a few other areas in government that uses them, such as hospitals. Most of them don't come equipped with a synthetic soul.
[ Most being almost all. Meeting that one other android like Dorian had been a surprise — both pleasant and unpleasant. ]
no subject
I mean, you strike me as very unique. That's nice. [ He gestures towards Dorian. ] Would you say it's difficult, bonding with humans? I'm guessing you like your partner. Do you have other friends, too?
no subject
[ Dorian has used lethal force as well — he's a cop and a robot programmed to do so in tense situations — but ultimately he knows he is there to connect, not just be a shield. ]
But no, I don't have friends of any kind.
no subject
[ And a waste, frankly, if bonding really was what he was built for. ]
Can I count? As a friend, I mean.
no subject
I mean, if you want? Seems a little quick.
no subject
What can I say? I make friends fast.
[ Not close friends or anything, but yeah, he is aware he doesn't waste much time. ]
no subject
I can't say I do the same.
no subject
[ Most people aren't as friendly as Jim, or as quick to befriend. It's never really put him off much before, and it doesn't now either. ]
Tell you what, let's call it... an optimistic attempt at friendship.
no subject
All right. I can't complain.
no subject
Louis, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship... [ Seriously he has to get that reference. ]
no subject
Casablanca, 1942

Well, I should be able to pick up any reference. I have a direct link to any and all information available.
