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."
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KQC2eyxoI
A trails behind, pulling the hoodie of his coat up in embarrassment.
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGwJaDuyRe
A (grumbling)
"I just thought it looked nice..."
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HdsANi77S
JASON (mockingly sweet)
"Oh, sure. Next thing you know you’re pouring it into your coffee. 'Mmm, tastes like desperate mistakes.'"
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDP5x0kCxUS
K chuckles lowly from behind his scarf, amused at the chaos.
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTavm1FwaB7
A (defensive, mumbling)
"It wasn't on purpose..."
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgweIW8rebM
Jason snorts and shakes his head, then tosses a glance over his shoulder at the two.
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDSQob4FYl
JASON
"Which reminds me—since you two seem weirdly curious about it—might as well explain how robot babies are made."
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwDAzvdrDL
He clears his throat dramatically, making A and K visibly brace for whatever nonsense he's about to say.
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzjT39uxsgO
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."
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKmzxHNHVt
A (wide-eyed)
"Then... how?"
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiaLeKKGUj
Jason wiggles his fingers like he's sprinkling fairy dust.
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHfiCI8CSF
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."
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdpaztHOrT
He points a thumb to his head.
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTTWSPiLbU
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."
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaj2v218di
K (casually)
"And gender?"
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUQ6Ql46Yp
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."
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspTTVQSrBg
A’s eyes light up with amazement, while K just looks faintly disturbed.
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXpW9oJ7gd
A
"So after...?"
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7le8Z0xhy
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."
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNy9V1hZ4G
A ponders this deeply, like he just unlocked some universal secret. Jason stretches, the bag of meds swinging on his wrist.
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91yRe369aJ
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."
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhz09Tzz2a
They walk for a beat in silence, before Jason turns slightly toward K.
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VUcfpre3E
JASON (curious)
"Ever seen any Purifiers have kids?"
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUeDGhXQ4i
K shrugs casually, the city lights painting stripes of gold and blue across his jacket.
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ781AQhhUxu
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."
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlpDMaeKLE
A (softly)
"That's... kind of lonely."
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAmFqXFhCb
K (flatly)
"I like it that way."
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuT6jIFvtMp
Jason hums thoughtfully, slowing his pace a little to walk between them.
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5AZOiYmlaF
JASON (casually)
"Well, congratulations. You're stuck in a 'family' now. No returns, no refunds."
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPXS7gERwa
A (smiling)
"I'm fine with that."
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡub39RLWyxT
K (grumbling quietly)
"...Tolerable."
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXyiQG1W1Z
Jason just chuckles, shaking his head, as they turn onto the familiar street leading back toward the cube.
14Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbyuONgVuF
FADE OUT.
