King's Row
Theta's apartment.
Brad was sitting on the couch, Theta on his lap as they watched TV. "Ya know babe... I've been wondering something." He says.
Theta looked back at him. "What is that?"
"Well I work in construction, so seen some of the Praet clockwork before... But they are all cold and hard, but you." He cups her breasts. "Are soft and warm... Why is that?"
Theta sighed and paused their show with a click of the remote. "Well, we must go back to Pretoria, well, the version of Praetoria this unit came from. So over twelve years in your past, this units home was running into a problem, Praetoria is only a hand full of islands, unable to support a large, growing population, so they needed to control that."
"The first plan was to drug the water with sterilisation agents, but the rich did not like that, there was no way to discriminate between rich and poor.... Then this units creator, Steven Berry, praetor of science had an idea, using a flesh like alloy he most likely stole from praetor Raymon Keys, he created the home companion deluxe, clock work that where antomatically correct."
Brad blinked. "He made sex bots?"
She nodded. "To put it bluntly, yes... For a while they worked, there was a decline in the birth rates, it looked like Marcus Cole had his answer for controlling the size of the population..... But then the resistance started to spread rumours, the the deluxe companion was filled with spy wear. Turns out that while they had no problem with Seeres reading their minds on the street, they did not enjoy the thought their private times where being recorded."
"So people started destroying their companions, trashing them, stripping them of what little dignity they had, Berry released a press statement saying there was no spy wear... But the damage had been done.... So Berry stripped the deluxe models of their softer shells, ripped out most of their AI and repurposed them as street sweepers or construction units."
Brad hugged her tight. "That's horrid.... How did you escape that?"
"Oh, this unit was never a deluxe home companion, in an attempt to recount the financial losses of the Home Companion deluxe, he tried to reinvent them, this unit is one example, a doctor with a soft, warm hand to comfort the sick..... But Steven had undiagnosed Attention Deficit Hyper Disorder, so half way through this units construction, he added flame throwers because he thought, and this unit quotes. "They where cool."."
Brad gently rocks her. "Shit, your whole race wiped out because of a rumour... That is fucked up... Are you okay?"
Theta sighed. "It is sad to think about yes.... But this unit can not do anything about it, time travel involving Praetoria is very dangerous... So this unit best leave it in the past." She rubs his thigh. "But any way, back to our show, this unit wants to see what Viktor will do next."
