Robots can't have strokes, right? But if you THOUGHT a robot might have had a stroke, would it be appropriate to nag them to see a robot doctor right away? Or is it fine to let them get repairs on their own schedule? I kinda don't know how computers work at all...

been here about a month
but it's more that getting to know them involves talking to them
and talking to people isn't my favorite thing to do

We had a pretty long conversation for strangers just now, though. I'll be rooting for you to get past your shyness! (^o^)9

please do not

[Kindly forget about his existence and most definitely do not remember him as shy!!! Bad!!]

What? Why not, though? I don't mind doing it. ✨✨You can do it!! Social Butterfly Project, go go go! UuuraaaAAAH!!!!✨✨ See, it's fine.

I'm blocking this number

[...He doesn't, but it's the thought that counts?]

No! Don't go! We can change the name of the Social Butterfly Project!

[ that was the problem, right ]

I can't hear you over this number block

How about Operation Lonely Whale Song Reaches A Welcoming Pod

what? the hell does that even mean?

I saw something about it on TV once! A whale that couldn't commune with other whales because its whale song is different from all the other whales.

[aaaa hitting unexpectedly close to home, actually, he's not a fan!]

okay well I don't sing and don't want to sing

[ it was almost gonna be something about a lone wolf joining a pack, count your blessings ]

It's a metaphor. You don't have to sing. I kinda had trouble coming up with a new one after you rejected the social butterfly, to be honest.

[She could have been spared the trouble of this conversation when he ghosted her...]

no one said you had to

[ You can still leave this internet weirdo on read at any time Cliff. ]

That's true... I just got caught up in the flow of the conversation. Sorry.

[Don't tell anyone this, but...he likes weirdos... Shh, don't tell.]

you were having that conversation with yourself
I was not a part of that conversation
I specifically exited that conversation, actually

[ :o ]

But we've been talking this whole time without interruption, haven't we? You've been responding steadily the whole time. The conversation is still going even now.

this might be more like heckling

Wow... do you really hate talking to people so much that you have to pretend it doesn't count when you do talk to someone? Or are you just bullying me?

maybe I like to leave people guessing
anyway we had some sort of conversation in there probably

Yes! It was a conversation! That's what I was saying! You managed to talk to at least one stranger for a while today, now. Good job.

making it into a thing is weird and why I left the other conversation

Is this making it into a thing? I thought I was just praising you.

I would prefer you didn't

like it's just talking

it's not a big deal

See, so you can do it just fine!

[ There's a pause, and then she sends another message. ]

Sorry. That's the last one.

['too late, you're blocked' he almost sends, but that will probably just spin her into a similar cycle and this will never end.]

uh huh

well next time it won't be a stranger I guess
