[He's always more than happy to babble about his robot-buddy, so he doesn't even care that she's asking questions. Leaning on the counter he props his head up with a hand and shakes his head.] Nah. He's not too big and the case has wheels installed so I can pull him around when I don't wanna carry him. It's kind of impressive how he compacts himself.
[It's about then he realizes he may have overstepped and when she looks at him he keeps his gaze pretty steady. He doesn't regret any of what he's said but he's more than intrigued by the fact that he's accidentally tapped into something else. He doesn't know what she's thinking or what she's done, but he can sort of understand the concept of doing what was needed versus what was wanted. He sighs lightly, if only because he's met too many people who've had similar experiences.] There are a lot of people here that get to experience a lot of new things. Maybe that's the only good part about Cerealia but I think that's considered a win. There's a friend of mine who's never experienced a real vacation before...a few of us are going to change that. And another friend of mine? She ended up getting away from something that wasn't allowing her to be free so...[He waves his free hand.] I guess I'm just saying you're not the only one.
[He stands on his toes a little to watch her work. Yeah, he definitely couldn't do this. There's a light huff of laughter at the question.] I mean yeah there's that, too, but he's also my older brother. He's been here a little longer than I have. [A pause.] He's getting to experience a lot of new things here, too.
