Why is it always Earth?

Why is it always so crowded?

Who knows this place? What is expected besides rampant capitalism and hordes of people-- this I have noticed already.

My loyalty is largely dependent on my own convenience. I may be a group animal, but I choose who I socialize with freely. [He's basically a big kitty.] I'm also quicker to anger. [Not that you can immediately tell with his carefully managed speech.] We're easily threatened, prone to intimidation, and blunt. To a human, this is rude and indicative of deep problems. But to us, it's normal.

[He does have some behaviors abnormal for a Nietzschean, but he doesn't want to admit them because genetic flaws and shame are horrible.]

Can a robot prioritize one permanent bond over another?

[At least Vegas has no shortage of strange people. Her leather clad warden not being too much of an eye draw.] There's a clothing store nearby. As much as I resent being physically altered, blending in will at least make this simpler.

We apparently have a fund limit on our card.

I'm sorry you couldn't have met my technician, though. I'm sure you would have had fascinating conversations.

It's warm here, but we could find you something with a lighter fabric that will allow you to maintain a barrier between you and other people. [And he starts off in the direction of some stores.]

[He doesn't go too fast, at least.] We perceive other people as threats too, by the way. But we merely accept it as a fact from the moment we're born. Our defenses no longer are exhausting to us, though I can understand how they would be to one of your world. [He tucked his hands behind his back.]

I wasn't accustomed to remaining in a position of forced vulnerability. I understand.

[The bouts of self-destructive behavior were most telling there.]

Do you know how to play poker?

It is. [He remembers a specific time when it was especially nice. He was death tolling.] But it may be necessary for us to play to get more money.

Unfortunately, it's not a game based in either. Rather, numerical values and cards and bluffing one another. You may enjoy the probability portion, but I imagine you would have more difficulty facing the other players [given her suspicions].

I can help you with that, however, if you would be willing to try your hand. I have no intention to leave our fates to chance.

Not generally, but I don't intend to leave you alone in there and I can find some way to pass necessary messages to you.

Unless you want to lean provocatively on my shoulder and whisper hints in my ear while wearing an attractive dress, it's probably the best way to draw the least attention. You're better at math.

I used to be a spy. Familiar with this era or not, I know the behaviors well enough. Are you afraid of a challenge?

I'll buy us a deck. And I need something more suitable myself. [A respectable suit or something.]

Some of it. A lot of it has changed by my time, but I did research to help me better blend in to ancient ports. This clothing is largely based out of American and Western European cultures. Clothing that doesn't follow the convention, even if it's less revealing, tends to attract more attention and suspicion.

We can buy you a pair of driving gloves. They're still in use. [He veers toward one of the stores and gets the door for her.]
