A mixture. The latter was more common when I was younger. Not so much anymore.

@Revolutionary

I guess they can't tell anymore. I wouldn't.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

It’s a tall ask for everyone to be, I’m sure.

@Revolutionary

Is the android-bullying usually what you get, or do they treat you differently because of it?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

Well, not that one. I just mean in general.

@Revolutionary

Sure, a unique one could be funny. But most people aren't that creative.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

Once upon a time, I did laugh. I have to be honest.

@Revolutionary

Even for the fuse joke?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

No, I don’t even have them. They’re not needed.

@Revolutionary

*Points a vertical open palm toward you*
See? It's not funny when it doesn't even have anything to do with you. I've gotten fire jokes before. Fire!

*Stifles a laugh*
Okay, that’s new to me, but I do see how that can get old. I can relate. Venting that frustration is even often met with “Did you blow a fuse?”

@Revolutionary

I'm not very technology-minded, but do you... have fuses?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*Laughs*
Oh yeah. I’m sure you know all too well, also. I’d be shocked if no one used knowledge of your uniqueness against you maliciously. A lot of people have a hard time not doing that.

@Revolutionary

It happens. But I'm also not usually someplace where my water-ness is something people get the chance to learn about. But on that note, the next time someone asks me "water you doing," I think I'm going to lose my mind.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

You didn’t. I am what I am, and I don’t have a problem with that. But people can get mean if they want to and sling malicious things my way. Most commonly in the form of name calling, as you could imagine after our talk about originality. I’ve been called things like bucket-head a lot.

@Revolutionary

That's just a rude thing to say to anyone.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

I’m an android. Physically. But I am a person. I have humanity.

@Revolutionary

What do they do that makes you feel like they only care about the android part?
*Taps my fingers together*
Oh! I hope I didn't make you upset by asking questions earlier!

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

As long as they’re not mean about it. I’m fine with a machine being what I am, but I resent it being my identity. If that makes sense.

@Revolutionary

That part's interesting. Kat the person isn't tied to Kat the machine?
