[ hmm. maybe it made for a good companion when you're lonely. he wouldn't know. robots don't have that kind of functionality and when they did . . . you would have to be wary.
he can grasp that longing. he misses alex all the time. ]
I have other friends, now! So it's not as lonely without him here.
[He eats his sandwich quietly for a moment. A secluded area in the forest is not an ideal cure for loneliness, considering how this conversation had his thinking about his upbringing. At least he had someone real who could talk back to him.]
Including you. I should say that I consider you to be a trusted ally.
We shared our deep-seated fears and childhood secrets. [Not exactly, but Taryon loves exaggerating.] And we know we can come to each other for love advice. I don't think any set of strangers can do that.
[He's seen this before. Taryon removes the wrapping and angles the bottle away from him before gripping the cork in one hand. He twists the bottle, once, twice, thrice, again....
[He holds the bottle over the champagne glasses and pours a drink for the two of them. Some of the drink has dribbled over the side and coats Taryon's hand, but this is why he has the cloth napkins at hand.]
So you're an expert at opening them? [He grins and sets the bottle against the basket.] I did manage to save what's inside.
[Taryon takes a large sip of his drink, and once done, he keeps it held while he continues eating. As he makes his way through on sandwich, he sets the baked goods closer to Dolph, gesturing for him to try them.
It's a lovely day, if one ignores the danger in town. Taryon gazes out towards the forest in silence as he meditates on the peaceful setting.]

[He holds out the box of sandwiches to Dolph.]
I made these. Here.
no subject
Thanks.
What does your robot do?
no subject
[He takes one of the sandwiches for himself.]
Help me carry things, write things down, brush my hair, fight by my side, draw, you name it.
no subject
[ like a person could do that just fine. ]
no subject
[Although, he wonders if Dolph thinks he's not capable of any of that...]
It's good to have a partner when I'm working, especially if it's my oldest friend.

I guess that's true enough.

Well then, Dolph, I hope we will have many good days between us. How's that for a toast?
no subject
Fine. Any excuse to drink works for me.

It's slow going.] Hold on, I'm getting there...
no subject
[ he isn't fussed. ]
no subject
Almost...
[He alternates between twisting and tugging until he hears a hissing noise. From there, he slowly works on the cork...
It pops off, rolls into the grass, and a burst of champagne spills onto the blanket before he can right it.] Got it!
no subject
Congrats.

To the future.

This was nice.
no subject
We can do this more often, if you want.
...As a friend thing, or whatever. [Anything that gives a chance for Taryon to socialize.]
