Never Stop Searching
“I’m meant to be shared,” said Victor, preening before the mirror.
“But you’re my love-bot!” wailed Heather.
“Sex-bot. I need new lovers, new relationships.”
“I won’t share you. Never!” Heather’s cheeks streamed.
Victor crossed his arms. “I’ll never stop searching for new experiences.”
“Is that your final word?”
“Yes!”
Heather held up a special tool. “Okay then.”
She left his parts on East 60th Street, the most dangerous neighborhood in the city. Soon, the notorious Slasher Gang found him.
“Hey! We found our shooting practice robot,” said 2-Money. We needed this. It’s like I always say, Icepick, never stop searching!”

Hehe. That’s the reaction I’m looking for. 🙂

Can you hear the echo? 🙂 Only one quibble–I don’t think cheeks streaming. Tears stream down cheeks, but cheeks streaming would imply melting, at least to me.

You know, I wondered about that. Had I more words available I’d write, “Tears streamed down her cheeks,” and be done with it. Thanks for that feedback, I’ll change it.

Yes, this was great. I totally agree that Sex-bots should be more faithhful to their owners. Good job and great detail. I love all your names, especially 2-money!
LikeLike
Yeah. I mean you can’t “own” another human being, but you can “own” a sex-bot. She’d become enamored with the sex-bot, which is inadvisable, but he deserved it for denying the owner’s wishes. At least he can say she gave him a new experience, albeit one he hadn’t planned on!
Thanks much for your comments!

Well, now he’s with others who share his quest for new experiences!!!
When she gets her next bot, she should ask if it comes with a loyalty chip 🙂

Hehe. You’re right. She should, or at least pay extra to have one installed. I have a feeling Victor isn’t enjoying his new experience. Thanks for stopping in!

AnElephant finds your little tale quite delightful.
But finds the comments rather critical of poor sex-bot.
After all, he is presumably designed by a man?
LikeLike
Checking my notes…ah…he was designed by 432 people, 162 of them were women, and 1 hermaphrodite. It’s hard to say who had the most influence on him. Methinks his self-programming module exceeded operating parameters and sex-bot has no one to blame but himself.
Thanks for stopping in!

ha…I need this laugh today. All sex-bots are the same if you ask me. Only after one thing.

It seems so. Perhaps they need to get in touch with their feminine side and stop to consider long walks on the beach once in a while. 😉
Glad you got a needed laugh. Thanks for visiting!

Dear E. A.
Still trying to wrap my head around a sex-bot. Love the way you carried the phrase, “never stop searching…” through the piece.
shalom,

We can only hope the manufacturers warranty covers that. A robot, at least, can be fixed. 😉
