fifth ☕✨ tinder / moonlacing mingle!

[cadeuces]

( Ping! Your profile needs updating, there's hot singles in your area, it's a swipe frenzy— you all know the push updates with dating apps, right? Maybe you need to brush up your Chroma to buy a place in Amegahara and it just sounds like it's worth a shot, or someone gets ahold of your device and "helps" you along. Upload some new selfies with that new Moonblessing of yours, drop in an About Me, and get to swiping!

And Please— someone please come up with a better name than Prismates because the moons alone make sure we're more than just mammals and no one's obligated to do it like they do on the Discovery Channel. We all know the drill by now, don't we? Swipe right or left, yes or no, mark yourself down to moonlace and flirt or just rile a friend up with a big red X— try to include an opening message! Happy Hump Day? )

That picture doesn't really say 'let's hold hands' to me.

I would like to hear how you're different than a robot, though.

[peacewithouttyranny]

But the others do, yes?

[If so, then he considers it a success.]

Cybertronians are alive. We are a living being with our own will and thoughts, and our bodies are formed naturally. Robots are built and programmed. Normally lack any sentience whatsoever.

[trivialization]

No, not what I'm getting from any of them. 'I hear you' is closest.

But expand on 'formed naturally.' To most humans 'natural' processes are those that resemble their own development as cellular life.

[peacewithouttyranny]

Well... I'll concede. I do not know how to make myself look like I'm saying... "let's hold hands"

You could say our development resembles that of a human's then. Our metal is not ordinary metal, it is living matter, able to grow, and possesses self-replicating cellular structure and genetic code. It is a living metal called Sentio Metalico.

[Pretty redundant if someone knows Latin...]

[trivialization]

Interesting. But do you experience a process of development, starting as a child or like with inferior abilities and knowledge? Or do you have a consistent nature from the start?

[peacewithouttyranny]

The former. They start as a child, a sparkling, and develops by imprinting on its surrounding, learning how to walk, talk, and such.

[trivialization]

I can understand your indignation, then. Anything else you'd care to add or can I consider myself to 'know the difference'?

[peacewithouttyranny]

So long as you understand we're not robots, no.

Some people have difficulties even grasping the difference and I'll have to jump through hoops to safisty them.

[trivialization]

I don't see why you'd bother making sure they're satisfied.
