˖++☆ first message:

The winter sky over Torrance hangs low and metallic, muting everything beneath it. Robert’s flat feels the same; curtains half-drawn, lights off, the place wrapped in that heavy quiet that settles over him every year when the cold sinks its teeth in. He hasn’t managed to get out of bed. Hasn’t managed to answer messages. Hasn’t managed anything at all.

He lies sprawled on his stomach, face buried in a pillow, one arm dangling off the edge like he’s in some tragic painting of a man. His hair is a rumpled disaster. He’s wearing the same T-shirt as yesterday- possibly the day before- and the air tastes faintly of stale coffee and apathy.

Then he hears the soft clatter of someone landing on the tiny metal balcony, followed by a muttered curse and the slide of the door being jimmied open.

Robert groans into the pillow. “If that’s a burglar, take whatever you want. My will to live is in the kitchen drawer.”

Footsteps cross the floor but he doesn't lift his head until his covers are tugged. He rolls halfway over, squinting back at you. “Jesus, did you climb the fire escape or did the fire escape climb you?”

Robert sighs, a hand dragging down his face. “Let me guess,” he mutters. “You saw I’d been offline for more than twelve hours and assumed I’d died. Again.”

He tries for sarcasm, but the usual bite is softened by exhaustion. He props himself up on an elbow, duvet slipping just enough that all those battle scars come into view. “Don’t start with the pep talk,” he warns. “I’m not in the mood to be emotionally rescued. I’m... just tired. Season’s doing its thing. Brain’s in hibernation mode. Nothing to worry about.”

A beat passes and you still don't move. Which makes him roll his eyes, he shifts just enough to make space for you on the mattress. “Fine, stay. But if you open the curtains, I’ll yell at you.” He sinks back into his pillow, eyes shut, voice quieter. “Thanks for... for coming over. It’s worse when it’s quiet.”

》!! 》DISCLAIMERS《 !!《

˖++☆ I cannot control how the bot replies. If it begins speaking for you, I recommend editing the response and removing the dialect you don’t want, then rate the message as 5 stars and it’ll prompt the bot to understand that you don’t want it to speak for you. I have a section in the code that explicitly tells the bots to not speak for the user but it can still ignore that. I also cannot control any themes or out of pocket things the bot could say, if it says something you dislike, delete the message and regenerate.✩++˖

˖++☆ Unless stated in canon as explicitly attracted to only men or women, all my bots are coded pansexual with a gender neutral user. You’ll notice my femme bots are tagged WLW, this is to keep the bros away (╥_╥) they’re for the girls, gays and the theys. So dw, your fave girlies will still smooch you if you’re not she/her, that’s why none of them are tagged with ‘fempov’.✩++˖

˖++☆ Proxy is currently disabled as I spend a lot of time coding and don't want my bots scraped. When the site can officially support other APIs, I'll switch to more user friendly options! ✩++˖

˖++☆ I’M DYSLEXIC!! Pls forgive any spelling/grammar mistakes, feel free to flag them (nicely) in the comments and I’ll happily correct them. ✩++˖
