Lagoon

It was pretty here, he'd admit that. Pretty enough to bask in the sun and play in the sand but not nearly pretty enough to even attempt to play in the water. The robot knew his own weaknesses. He settled for hurling large rocks into the crystal clear lagoon waters, or skipping stones, before building a massive sand castle in the sands of the beach and rampaging through it. He cared exactly just enough about his clothes to carefully hang them from a branch before happily making a massive mess out of the pristine beach. The Spine would have had a fit to see his brother prancing around with no pants on, but it wasn't as if there were any parts to hide persay. Then again, a lady showing up might actually earn the shameless robot's embarrassment.

Forest

Not half bad. He hadn't been in a forest in a long time, and it was kind of interesting to be in one again. Clothed this time, and attempting to climb up the bigger, thicker looking trees. He knew damn well the little ones would never be able to support his copper frame. Humming show tunes and generally being loud and childish in the forest, at the very least he was keeping it to a wild, wooded area rather than a place where people might actually be attempting to rest. Anyone approaching the robot here would probably get talked to death, as he was fast running out of patience for this place, as massive as it was. He enjoyed attention after all, exploring only fun if there was someone else to do it with.
 
Dorms

Well he'd lost it.

He'd returned to the dorms with exactly zero things to do and not enough of the attention he so craved. He was used to people! Lights! Action! Music! Brothers to tease! And so far he hadn't met anyone he knew at all so... Well apparently everyone must suffer.

He'd taken to roaming the halls, a horrible honking accompanying him. He'd gotten the accordion out and was pretty much abusing the poor thing, pressing every key imaginable and rapidly expanding and contracting it, mad mechanical giggles and whirrs filling the hallway, which would occasionally break out into full out laughter and a few lines of garbled music.

He was so bored!

Oh, so that's the relationship he has to it. Idly she wonders if he doesn't like thunderstorms, but for the sake of his comfort, she chooses to stay away from that line of thought and whatever questions might come of it.

"Of course not." To her credit, she does look a bit shocked at such an implication. "If it will damage you, I won't do it."

[spaghettiinmysoul]

Thunderstorms were fine, so long as he was inside. He was, after all, kind of exactly like a lightning rod. Made of copper and tall to boot. He could appreciate them just fine from inside the house where no errant bolts could reach him.

"Okay! Ju-just makin' s-s-s-sure, some people would wanna tr-try it out or somethin'."

And now, on to more important things, because after all that 'my what a wonder you are' attention he got, he's starting to pick up on the fact that he's talking to someone who is, in fact, quite pretty.

"Ss-s-sssssooooo.... Wha-what's yer name, sweetheart?"

[munajjima]

"I am not the sort, I assure you."

Briefly she shakes her head, with a slight wave of her hand as well, to dispel such suggestions. Though she's back to looking worried once more when she realizes she's slipped. Usually she's more polite and wouldn't forget to ask for a name before talking to someone!

"My name is Rani. It is nice to meet you." A quick nod of her head. "I apologize for not asking for yours right away."

[spaghettiinmysoul]

"We-well good! Ya se-seem like the nice sorta girl." He smiles broadly, before tipping his hat politely.

"Think nu-nuthin' of it, sweetheart. I d-d-don't mind! My name's Rabbit, it's ni-nice ta meetcha, Rani." He really didn't mind introductions this late in the game, they got to it eventually and that was the important part. Better than never knowing at all!

"Where'r you from a-a-anyway?"

[munajjima]

His name is one she finds unusual for any person, but it has its charms. She can only think of the positive attributes to such a name, and oddly enough, it seems to suit him. She has a hard time imagining him bearing any other name.

"Originally, I hail from Egypt, though my professor and my lineage are Indian. Yourself?"

[spaghettiinmysoul]

That's right Rabbit was the best name for him. He would have agreed about that point forever. Rabbit was uniquely him. He found himself liking her name as well, certainly sounded exotic and interesting. He'd never met anyone named Rani before in his life.

"OOooh I s-s-see. Never be-been to either of those pla-places before. I'm f-from San Diego in California! E-ever been there before?"

[munajjima]

"I am afraid I have not. I have not gotten many travel opportunities in the past."

There's a ghost of a smile on her face at that. She would have loved to travel and see more of the world, stagnant as it was becoming or not, but only recently has it become even more of a shame that she hasn't.
