EXT. CENTRAL CITY STREETS – EVENING

The trio strolls back toward the cube, the neon lights humming softly against the dusk. Jason still carries the medicine bag, but his mouth hasn't stopped moving since they left the store.

JASON (grinning like a devil)
"You know, of all the things you could've grabbed... You had to pick the robot intimacy enhancer. Real smooth, A. Real natural."
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGo07UEQUN
A trails behind, pulling the hoodie of his coat up in embarrassment.
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYqyYOwGYN
A (grumbling)
"I just thought it looked nice..."
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcom85hvsT
JASON (mockingly sweet)
"Oh, sure. Next thing you know you’re pouring it into your coffee. 'Mmm, tastes like desperate mistakes.'"
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyE5jB7Ggm
K chuckles lowly from behind his scarf, amused at the chaos.
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpzsuZX5DL
A (defensive, mumbling)
"It wasn't on purpose..."
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqVVGxSLmv
Jason snorts and shakes his head, then tosses a glance over his shoulder at the two.
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCdT7IVYkI
JASON
"Which reminds me—since you two seem weirdly curious about it—might as well explain how robot babies are made."
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqetw7Gt1y
He clears his throat dramatically, making A and K visibly brace for whatever nonsense he's about to say.
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtB2jAJnoA
JASON (mock teacher voice)
"Step one: No, you don’t just mash bodies together. We’re not cavemen. Sexual interactions? Fun, maybe—depending on your firmware—but totally useless for making kids."
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzmF2nVoMN
A (wide-eyed)
"Then... how?"
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1R2YYvKOG
Jason wiggles his fingers like he's sprinkling fairy dust.
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOiCzFJTKdK
JASON
"Magical code-mixing, my innocent child. Two or more robots can combine their programs—their operating cores, their quirks, their bugs—and shove it into a data pod."
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByc9Gs20fy
He points a thumb to his head.
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQYEgdqzja
JASON
"Once it’s in there, it starts developing a whole new program by itself, based on the stuff it inherited. It evolves, learns, becomes something unique."
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6fvkuC5Vd
K (casually)
"And gender?"
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5l27YSQfOa
JASON
"Pfft. Irrelevant. Code doesn’t care about meatspace nonsense. Two guys, two gals, one toaster and a vending machine—you name it, they can have a kid if they mix their programs right."
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZSbhqdUuP
A’s eyes light up with amazement, while K just looks faintly disturbed.
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHuAqZ7Uh4
A
"So after...?"
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwXua7qbyD
JASON
"After the code stabilizes, the pod pings the guardians. Then you yank the developing memory chip out and install it into a bigger, mobile body."
(beat)
"Congratulations, it’s a terrible toddler who’s gonna wreck your life."
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWil0Cvgn6K
A ponders this deeply, like he just unlocked some universal secret. Jason stretches, the bag of meds swinging on his wrist.
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66lL1FNmhK
JASON (grinning)
"And that, my dearest creeps, is why society isn’t full of wild robot orgies—because love and babies are two different nightmares."
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqEUX3YE95I
They walk for a beat in silence, before Jason turns slightly toward K.
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡceymOUyY1z
JASON (curious)
"Ever seen any Purifiers have kids?"
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqzlYhNoyj
K shrugs casually, the city lights painting stripes of gold and blue across his jacket.
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50pJgYLa4x
K
"We’re not social. We don’t build families. We hunt. We survive. Barely talk unless we have to. Most of us... don’t even think about it."
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUrMM0Hx0Q
A (softly)
"That's... kind of lonely."
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMRsDYj8Qw
K (flatly)
"I like it that way."
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4Uqa9rLaE
Jason hums thoughtfully, slowing his pace a little to walk between them.
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNlEeratst
JASON (casually)
"Well, congratulations. You're stuck in a 'family' now. No returns, no refunds."
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXL05Vr9pKc
A (smiling)
"I'm fine with that."
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyG3AkQZAPK
K (grumbling quietly)
"...Tolerable."
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy054Zan6Zr
Jason just chuckles, shaking his head, as they turn onto the familiar street leading back toward the cube.
96Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHo9S2IIO3S
FADE OUT.
