"What I mean is.. I have a large amount of funds that I can use to rebuild this place. The Budget for me was... Almost limitless." He cracking a smile as he looked into his account to see the massive amounts of funds he had to play with. Then looked around the room trying to look for something to talk about. He then picked up a small vase that looked like it held something in it.

He looked around the buffet and tried to recreate it his mind. To see what it was like. The walls pristine, the food made to perfection. He looked around as the faint sound of what could be electricity cracking coming from Tellios could be heard. When he tried to sniff the air he realized he could not smell things like others. Eventually his eyes came to onto the real scene that lied before him. The horrible looking place.

He made a fist with his hand and then let go as he walked over to the buffet table. The food that was there was rotten and spoiled. He could tell by looking, but not by smell.

"Yes.. It make take a total overwork to make this place new once more." He said mulling it over. Over the broken equipment and what not around the place. "Yes. A frozen place in time." He said repeating what she said.

When she came up to him and looked cold, he pulled off his jacket and put it on her as he was wearing a T-shirt and shorts now. Being a robot he was made to adapt to weather and degrees. " 'We'd'? " he said teasingly. "I'd like that if you would like to join me."

He said thinking it over and decided to try to look into who he needed to talk to about this. When he realized, he was doing something for someone else. As well as himself. He stopped for a moment and blinked a few times at Pollyanna before checking some schematics of the building he was attempting to procure. Though he got nothing he was making one himself.

The words that came from him next caused Pollyanna’s paws to freeze on the spot as her ears perked instantly. "You… Do?" The bat girl asked inquisitively. In less than a split second later Pollyanna was beaming, as the exciting news got her pumped. "That’s wonderful!- Oh… I mean..." Well, it was his money. He could choose to do with it as he wished. "If you do want to restore this place, I’d be more than happy to help. I don’t have a lot of money but I’d like to contribute somehow." She looked then over to the wall. It was cracked, dented, and covered in its corners by webs and what appeared to be traces of mold. "I could paint!" But that wasn’t all. She noticed that he looked a little troubled over deciding just what to do with the building. It was a huge task for the two of them. Maybe they’d find other interested but… Well, baby steps. She smiled, and nudged his arm assuredly.

"I’ll help in any way I can." Pollyanna said almost seriously, but went back to being taken in awe by this place. It was then a warm weight was put on her, as Tellios draped his jacket across her shoulders. It was… A nice gesture. Her wings shuffled as uselessly tried to get in on her better. But for once, this was an occasion where her bat form wasn’t preferred. Not only because of this, but… Well, he deserved to deal with the side of her that wasn’t as unsettling. So when his body was turned against to her, she shifted back, as she put her sleeves in and zipped it up. There was a bit of heat on her cheeks now despite the initial cold, but she tried her hardest to push it off. "Thanks Tellios." She gratified softly, before turning back to the concession area. With that, she got an idea for the next part of the tour. "I wonder what shape the auditoriums themselves are in. I hope they’re not too messed up." With that, she stood in front of him.

"Wanna go there next?"

Tellios' voice laid silent for a moment, as if what she said had fallen upon deaf ears. She was thrilled for what he could do to help with the place, but it came with a recordings. Either way. He smiled at Pollyanna to make light of the situation.

He looked at Pollyanna. He was wondering on why she was going back to being human, but didn't question it. His jacket looked awkward on her, but she was cold. It was a good thing to do to a friend to put your jacket on them so they are warm. He looked at the auditorium doors and made a gulp noise, but had a smug look on his face. "No problem Polly."

"Ladies first." He said as he allowed Pollyanna to go first. He gave it some thought on what Pollyanna could do for him. Maybe she could.. Help him in a different way. Tellios could use someone close to him.

"Pollyanna, I'd like for more than just you painting. What if we... Made this a joi-" As he was about to put his hand on her shoulder as she passed by. He heard a large crunch from under them both. The support under them had given out due to the walking as Tellios made a decision to grab Pollyanna and leaped though a door first, holding Pollyanna close as then landed on his back for a moment, sliding down the isle of the Auditorium audience for a few moments as he stopped.

With Pollyanna on top and Tellios on the bottom his eyes sparked to life as he saw how close he was to Pollyanna. He blinked a few times as slowly put a hand on her shoulder.

"How you feeling? You okay?"

As the pair traveled to an auditorium, Pollyanna gaped in awe at her surroundings. There were paintings on the ceiling and fadec gold pillars leading down the pathway. It was all so wonderful, that she was hardly paying attention to the decrepit flooring and weak support. She smiled at his offer, muttering a small thank you when the door was held open to her. It was all so wonderful, and yet… She completely forgot the ‘be safe’ part of this mission.

He began to speak of plans for renovation, or at least it seemed to be. With a curious tilt of her head she leaned into listen… Only to squeal a second later when her foot hit the floor’s breaking point.

With Tellios she began to tumble down, expecting a hard and hurtful landing against the pavement. Tellios however cut off this fall from happening by opting to grab her and throw himself out first. "Ahh!" She yelled, as she found herself pressed against his body and sliding down the aisle. Her arms instinctively flinched over her face to protect it from the debris flinging up from the ground. She hadn’t even checked to see if her robotic friend was okay, until their velocity decreased and came to a screeching halt. Dust billowed up in clouds, which sent the mutant into a coughing fit. She didn’t see the aftermath until the dust settled and all was revealed.

"Oh my goodness!" She gasped, seeing Tellios under her with his chest exposed. She placed a hand over her mouth, not sure whether to be embarrassed or extremely concerned. She opted for the former. She placed a hand over where he touched her shoulder, thinking for a moment before nodding. "Yeah, I’m fine, just a bit… Shaken up is all..." She laughed a bit nervously before looking down at him. He was a robot, but that didn’t mean he didn’t require TLC. "What about you? Did you break any of your nanites? Are you hurt…? I mean I dunno if you can feel pain but still…." She gushed in concern, before realizing that she was still sitting on him. Immediately she stood up to assess what exactly happened, scanning around to see the hole in the floor. Dumb instability.

"...Here. Take my hand. We just have to be more careful next time." Pollyanna muttered gently. After that incident, it may have been hard to recover in terms of getting back to normal. But as she held out her hand, she chuckled nervously to ease the tension in the air. "Well, for what it’s worth this auditorium is beautiful…. Unsafe, but… Pretty. Haha..."

Tellios' shirt was ruined. On top of that he had small what look like to be cut marks on him. Showing a black open wound as he averted his gaze from Pollyanna. He looked down to check his wound.

It wasn't bad, but he would need time to recover. He grabbed her and was helped up by her. With a smile on his face he looked at her. She called the auditorium beautiful. He looked around and then decided to look into Pollyanna's eyes. With out realizing the tension that was in the air he spoke.

"Not anywhere comparable to you." He said as he then realize what he said he stopped in his tracks. Trying to look around.

"I'm fine. We are fine. I just..."

He looked confused as if something is going on. He tried to find something to say. Tellios sighed as if he was asking himself a question that he didn't know the answer. He was trying to find out what was going on.

Why did he find that moment to find Pollyanna beautiful? Attractive even! He tried to find answers to these questions. Nothing logical except.

He might have a crush on Pollyanna.[/color]

Wait.

Huh?

Side comments like that would be nearly impossible to slide past the hearing of a bat creature, not to mention a girl that already had her attention now alert for any other distractions. So with the words he absent-mindedly uttered Pollyanna fully turned to him, a slight pink now evident upon her tanned cheeks. He looked at her too, and tried to cover up the moment as if nothing happened. was it just a mistake? Was he serious? Pollyanna was almost scared to ask. After all, nobody had really expressed interest in her before..

"You… Mean it?" She asked barely, before tilting her head. Perhaps she misheard something. Or he was just caught up in the moment. She chuckled a bit nervously, as she ran a hand through her curly hair. "Oh… Well um… Thanks for saving me there… Anyway..." She smiled smally and hoped that Tellios would be able to laugh off the whole thing. Although… Was he saying things in attempts to be ‘more than friends’? Or maybe his programming was a little off? Either way Pollyanna had a lot to think about. She didn’t want to press Tellios but now… Now she was curious.

Because maybe she wanted to be ‘more than friends’ too.

"...Are you feeling okay Tellios?" She blinked, stepping forward a few steps to sit on the stage’s ledge they almost slid to. "Is there something on your mind?"

Tellios was far too out of it for a moment. Which was brought uppon by himself. He viewed Pollyanna as a friend, but living with her, being with her made him feel safe. Regardless. She responded to what Tellios said as he was now relatively confused. He almost snapped back as he looked around the room, it was elegent, but Tellios found it hard to compair Polly to it.

"Yes, I am fine. No harm a rest wont fix. It shouldn't take me too long."

He said sitting on the ground slowly with a knee in the air and an arm on it folded in. He gave some thought on what he said, then his mind jambled on once more. Was he feeling okay? things didn't make logical sense to him. He for a computer was confused on thi subject.

"I don't understand this.. Why did I give someone such a heavy compliment about them? Non of this is logical. Nothing. Just..."

He said then rubbing his eyes, as if trying to find out what to say, what to do. Even how to express what was going on. He knew about every human emotion, except for one.

"I... I dont know what is going on." he said with a blank stare on his face to Pollyanna, as if he just shorted himself out and is just trying to make light of the situation.

This was... Odd. She looked at Tellios with a deep concern now as he sat back down, confused all of the sudden and struggling to grasp... Something. And Pollyanna was desperate to know. He was her friend, and her roomate. He was also, despite what she insisted to herself, not human. He was bound to experience errors, but this... Did he fall harder than she expected?

But as she listened to him her face drooped slightly when he denounced the complement... Seemingly. It was a mistake on his part it came out in the first place, as if it were a mishap in his programming. Whatever it was... He didn't understand either. There was something missing between the two, and Tellios wasn't sure what he was feeling.

But Pollyanna knew.

Or at least, for herself.

"Hey..." She called out quietly, sliding down from the stage and back to him. She crossed her legs as she sat, and reached her hand out on his shoulder. "Just relax. It'll all be okay." With that she smiled, and laughed at a low volume as she patted it. "Just tell me what's going through your head. Try and break things down to make them easier to grasp. Just... Don't stress yourself out over it." She instructed carefully. Perhaps this way Tellios would come to terms with what was going on, so that she could piece together what the robot was trying to compute. "I won't judge, I promise. I want to help."

Tellios wanted to find out what was going on within his own mind. He shook his head for a moment to try and clear his head. As if closing apps on a smart phone or Tablet. He looked at Pollyanna with a confused look at his face. She was beautiful. She made the theatre look like the situation it was in was worse.

Tellios was built for every human emotion except for love. Or so he thought. He was gaining human like feelings for this girl who sat in front of him and put her hand on his shoulder. He looked at her. She had the face trying to tell Tellios that everything is going to be okay. He smiled for a moment before it faded.

"I don't understand human emotions. I feel them. But... It's like somethings missing. My heart is beating a little faster. I cannot contract any sicknesses or diseases. This is.." he put a hand on hers and held it. "Nothing is logical. My thoughts.. Everything isn't making sense. Words are.."

He stopped for a moment and looked at Pollyanna.

".. Do... I have a... Crush.. Or some kind of.. Close likeness to you? That's not... I'm not progra-"

He stopped as his eyes closed. Taking a deep breath as he opened his eyes.

".. Maybe.. I am wrong.. Maybe I am more human than I though. I'm just.. Not flesh and bones."

His words were tangled up, and for the first time it seemed the composed robot was tongue-tied. He was experiencing something new… Something that was alien to her too. Except Tellios tried to blame it all on his programming. Like he was faultily made and wasn’t handling this all properly.

But Pollyanna knew it was what made him even more human.

With baited breath she listened for his conclusion. She wanted to know what consensus he would come to in order to try to piece his puzzle together. He was struggling hard to make sense of it all, to which Pollyanna scooted closer. And as she leaned in… All was revealed. The word ‘crush’ was uttered, which had her face turning a bright red. Now she knew exactly how he felt. And she knew that she felt the same way, too.

He held her hand, to which she smiled at lightly. Even though he found out what was ‘wrong’ with him he still couldn’t grasp why he was acting this way about it. So slowly, as her heart fluttered in her chest, she raised a hand to place it on his cheek. They would figure this thing out together. That much was a promise. "You’re more human than I could have ever imagined." She whispered, her tone at a kind low so that he could pick up every last syllable she comforted him with. "Because… Because it isn’t your programming that’s feeling funny. It’s you. You as a person. But… It’s me too. My heart is beating super fast and my stomach is feeling funny… That’s what it’s like when you think you have one. At least, from what I’ve seen in movies and read in books... You feel confused and a little scared, honestly. You feel it differently from what I do but… But you’re not alone. I promise." She then backed off for a second, sliding her hands to grasp around her ankles as she looked at him. Trying to figure things out too. She wasn’t human either. She was supposed to be this little, fuzzy yet remorseless animal that had no concept of appreciating others for whom they were. But that wasn’t totally who she was. The girl that was sitting here with her friend… More than friend… Figuring out just who they were with each other. "I… Nobody’s ever had a crush on me before… I don’t think..." She looked down a bit shyly. "But… The question is though… Do you really like me… Like… That?"
