Time Traveler: Episode 58 - Capacity to Love - Part 2


Another work session at the Reventlov's Bot Workshop. Thank God Bethany isn't around now, Robin finds it difficult not to feel attracted to her sometimes and, to top it all off, he hasn't told her about Ann yet, but he'll have to do it at some point. 
"Why is it so complicated to be human? Had I been a robot like Crane, I would have lived happily with Bethany. But I happen to be flesh and blood; plus, I am with Ann now, how will Beth take that?"


Of course Bethany took it well, thanks to her flawless AI, but she continued to look after Robin, fulfilling every need and every wish her "master" had, watching over him even when he was sleeping.  And Robin couldn't help but feeling safe and happy around her.


During those days he had a recurring dream in which Bethany became human, Robin kissed her and then he became a plumbot.


"Boy, that dream was odd, what could it mean?", he asked himself while he looked for nanites at the Barren Wasteland.
