[ he's just not an animal person. he will never touch these pets......... he will gaze at them tho if you hold them yourself and they don't brush up against his pants!!!! ]
Zhanlu is what we call an artificial intelligence. An... entity that has consciousness to a certain point, listens to orders. Midori said he was like a familiar, if that's a word you might use.
[ oh yeah totally he's here. this is his emotional support arm butler even if he is just a useless hunk of junk right now (no).
and when he notices him shifting closer he will just lean a bit to allow him to look. ]
He'd be helpful. But also very annoying. [ /affectionate. the gauntlet itself goes down his fingers and up his wrist all the way to his shoulder, made of some sort of silvery metal. ]

Being around people... it makes me tired.
[ goes to take another pull from his cigarette. he knows when he is being gently ribbed. ]
Some of you are very tolerable.
no subject
[he'll take it.]
Suppose I can understand that, though, this group does tend to get-- loud.
no subject
It does.
Looked like most of them were having a good time too.
It's needed. [ man he does not want another thursday to roll around so soon. ]

[ this is just slow sip city bc eyebrow raise. he does not address the company bit and glares at a little twitchy tentacle. ]
You get a box from them at all?
no subject
[he just laughs quietly, shaking his head.]
I did, though. You?
no subject
[ he's a selective man!!! with so few spoons!!! ]
Mmh. From home. My favorite brand of cigarettes. You?

Mine was my cat.
no subject
A cat? This place is going to turn into a zoo. I thought Zhanlu was bad.
[ he hums. ]
no subject
It is, but it's mostly cats, so I don't mind it.
...is Zhanlu some kind of pet?
no subject
Zhanlu is what we call an artificial intelligence. An... entity that has consciousness to a certain point, listens to orders. Midori said he was like a familiar, if that's a word you might use.
no subject
[he nods... that and familiars are both, well, familiar, but the way zhanlu is made is more construct-like in his opinion.]
no subject
I like that name better.
He can possess other devices. Phones like ours here, or vehicles... he has an near-infinite reach when it comes to seeking out knowledge.
[ zhanlu isn't conscious so he can say nice things about him. ]
no subject
[and is the zhanlu in the room with us
because if so then rynlan is going to be shifting over into his space to try to get a better look.]

no subject
Is this what he originally possessed? Or did this come later?
no subject
No, this is just the form he prefers when he's "tired." It's safer for the both of us.
no subject
If this is just what he prefers when he's tired, then what does he normally prefer?
no subject
Tall. Blonde. Usually wearing a reptile. He's fond of them.
