Dealing With Others

M y father, and Vincent, for reasons I would hope are self explanatory. Kristoff and Casandra also rate very highly.

Yes, Vincent Amorason.

I have only had limited interaction with other androids, so I cannot speculate on this. But I do get along well with other females and well enough with others of similar class.
62. How do you relate to members of a different race? Class? Sex?
I have little trouble in relating to anyone.
63. Have you ever been in love? If so, describe what happened.
I am very much in love with Vincent. It was… very confusing. I had considered my programming to either be faulty or breaking down, as I was engaging in numerous unsolicited and recursive programming loops, all of which centered around him and his attentions. Kristoff and Cassandra thankfully informed me that I was not malfunctioning.
64. What do you look for in a potential lover?
Intelligence. A willingness to accept that I am not human. A pleasant personality.

I am very close to my father, and equally close to the family I have made with Vincent, Kristoff, Cassandra, and Scotty.
66. Do you want a marriage, family, and/or children?
With regards to marriage, unknown at this time. I have a family now and any children, should I decide upon that avenue, would need to either be constructed or adopted.

I have very rarely found cause to argue with others.
68. Are you a listener or a talker?
I have been told I am a natural listener.

70. Do you hold grudges?
I do not.
71. Do you tend to take on leadership roles in social situations?
Typically, I do not. What makes others happy tends to make me happy as well, so I am content to let others lead.
72. Do you like interacting with large groups of people?
I prefer smaller, one-on-one interactions.
73. How well do you express yourself?
It depends upon the concept. In purely factual matters, I express myself quite well. When emotions are involved, I do less well.
74. How quickly do you judge others?
I am usually able to accurately assess most individuals in a very short about of time.

To a certain extent. If nothing else, the opinions of my father and my teammates matters a great deal.
76. Do you have any enemies? How or why are they your enemy?.
I share a number of enemies with the rest of the Fantastic Four, both unique to our grouping and inherited from Doctor Richards’ original quartet. In purely personal terms, the Mad Thinker could be considered a personal enemy.
Personal Taste and Opinions
77. What is your favorite pastime? Color? Food? Possession?
I enjoy a number of pastimes, including bowling, miniature golf, ping pong, and pool, as well as reading. My favorite color is red. I do not yet have a favorite food, as I have only recently upgraded my hardware and sensory package to have enough of a sense of taste to speak of.
78. What are your preferences in arts and/or entertainment?
I prefer art featuring non-traditional structures or geometries, such as the works of Picasso or M.C. Escher. I also enjoy musicals, any show which is “on ice”, and also certain cartoons. I must also confess a certain appreciation for romantic comedies.
79. Do you smoke, drink, go whoring, or use drugs? Why or why not?
I do not smoke, though it would not harm my system, it would have an unpleasant and undesirable effect on anyone around me. I do not “go whoring” because I am with Vincent and would not under other circumstances regardless. I do not use drugs because they would not affect me and chemical alteration for pure entertainment purposes is highly illogical.
80. How do you spend a typical Saturday night?
I typically spend my Saturday evenings in Vincent’s company.
81. What is your most cherished fantasy?
To be fully accepted by humanity.
82. How long is your attention span?
When necessary and power supply permitting, I am able to keep my attention focused for upwards of several hours. I should note I am fully capable of splitting my attention with no significant drop in quality.
83. Do you laugh a lot? What do you find funny?
I do not laugh often, but I am still working on programming that particular vocal quirk into my vocalization software and hardware. I find slapstick very funny and am also fond of humor based in misunderstandings, as found in romantic comedies.
84. Is there anything that shocks or offends you? If so, what?
Being treated as an object.
85. How do you deal with stress?
With difficulty. I do not become stressed easily, so I am still learning various ways to handle it. Processing higher level mathematical formulas seems to be working best so far.
86. How much athletic ability do you have? Artistic?
My natural athletic ability is fairly average for a super-hero. My artistic ability, when limited to technical drawings, is quite accurate. If I am near enough to someone more skilled in those areas, I possess the potential to match them.
87. Do you like animals? Do you like children?
I like both children and animals.
88. Are you spontaneous, or do you always need to have a plan?
I prefer to have a plan, but am learning to appreciate spontaneous actions.
89. What are your pet peeves?
I dislike impatience and rudeness in others.
Self-Image
90. What is your greatest strength as a person? Weakness?
My greatest strength is my ability to think logically when others are not. My greatest weakness is my lack of understanding of subtle aspects of human behavior.
91. If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?
I would like to be able to better understand things such as sarcasm, irony, and humor. I am working to update my programming to do so.
92. Are you generally introverted or extroverted?
I believe I am somewhere in-between the two extremes.
93. Do you like yourself?
I do.
94. Do you have a daily routine? How do you feel if your day is interrupted?
My daily schedule varies, but I nevertheless experience annoyance when my plan for the day is interrupted.
95. What goal do you most want to accomplish in the next six months? Your lifetime?
I would like to further refine my software and hardware programming, over both the next six months and continuing into the future. As I am uncertain what my natural lifespan is, I cannot adequately answer that question.
96. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? 10 years? 20 years?
Any probability simulations that far into the future would likely be useless or at least highly inaccurate. However, I would like to see my relationship with Vincent as having progressed and continue to serve as a member of the Fantastic Four.
97. If you could choose, how would you want to die?
I would prefer to meet my destruction saving others.
98. What is the one thing you would like to be remembered for after your death?
That I was “alive” enough to die.
99. What three words would you use to best describe your personality?
Logical. Developing. Friendly.
100. What three words would others probably use to describe you?
Literal. “Awesome.” And if I am lucky enough, “Human.”
101. Why are you risking your life to adventure?
In part, because the experiences will help me grow and develop. In part simply because I am at much less risk than others. Damage me and I can be repaired. Break me into pieces and I can be put back together. Because I am able to act to protect others, I am obligated to.
