"Love? Seeing as I've never heard of the emotion, I assume that I am unable to feel it currently.
[i]She looked over her shoulder, raising an eyebrow at Bedlam.[/i]
"So you're adding... 'yandere', 'sexual attraction', and 'love'...? They all sound rather pointless to me, but oh well. I'll see what the program thinks."

-
He smirks back at her. "Trust me, you'll love it." He laughs at his joke as he plugs in the last bit of code before unplugging. "How do you feel?"
-
[i]Cyra stands, and pulls her tank top back down to cover herself, before facing Bedlam with a thoughtful expression on her face.[/i] "It's rather strange, really...." [i]Her icy blue eyes rested on Bedlam's face calmly, before a small tint of pink appeared on her cheeks.[/i] "I feel as though I can't pull my gaze from you... and a foreign, warm feeling is spreading through me. Additionally, I feel like being physically closer to you. Strange... by now, I'm used to feeling illogical feelings and thinking illogical thoughts, but this is a whole different level of illogical."
-
Bedlam just smiles and chuckles lightly for a few seconds before responding. "Right now you're blushing and you want to be close to me because you're attracted to me."
-
"Attract: Cause to come to a place or participate in a venture by offering something of interest, favorable conditions, or opportunities...." [i]She cocked her head slightly to the right.[/i] "You say many words and sentences that confuse me greatly. But anyhow, I doubt these new emotions are very helpful or even safe...." [i]She averted her gaze.[/i] "Unless, for, I dunno. Satisfaction? Happiness?" [i]Keeping her face direction averted from Bedlam, she looked at the man from the corner of her eye.[/i]
-
"I believe happiness is far more important than something helpful or safe." He leans in and kisses her cheek before turning to walk away. "Have fun exploring the new feelings. I'll probably see you around."
-
[i]Cyra's face went as red as a tomato, but she didn't move as Bedlam kissed her cheek, didn't move when he turned away. Inwardly, she debated going after him, but the logical part of her that remained firmly a computer was very adamantly disagreeing. So, she simply smiled at Bedlam, before replying softly.[/i] "Error. Prediction inaccurate. Future meet-up is certain, not probable."
-
"Is that so?" He stops and turns to her. "You want to follow, don't you? Why don't you? Because it's not logical? Don't you know that logic just gets in the way sometimes? When it comes to love nothing is logical."
-
"... whaaa? That sentence made absolutely no sense. I can't find it in myself to follow an irrational feeling over logic...." [i]When he turned, Cyra once again averted her gaze.[/i]
-
Edited by Stitch: 6/16/2017 7:57:47 AM"Why not? Come on, just try. Try for me, Cyra." Bedlam holds out a hand for Cyra to hold. "You'll learn that feelings should be listened to just as much as logic."
-
[i]Cyra hesitated for a long moment, clearly showing conflicting emotions.[/i] "... oh, fine," [i]She replied, before hastily grabbing up and stowing her weaponry, and taking Bedlam's hand gently.[/i]
-
Bedlam's fingers gently interlocked with hers and he gave her another peck on the cheek. He then began to walk slowly forward. "You won't regret it."
-
[i]Cyra once again blushed, and it appeared as though she had no idea how to react in that situation; actually, her first instinct was to Google it, but she decided against. So instead, she simply followed Bedlam silently, wondering where they were off to.[/i]
-
They just walked among the trees for several minutes, Bedlam walking very closely to Cyra so that they bumped occasionally into each other. His smile never wavered as he looked forward. Whether or not they were actually heading to a specific destination wasn't obvious.
-
[i]Of course, Cyra being Cyra, she assumed that there would be a destination for their walk, as she found aimless strolls illogical; they didn't even help exercise all that much. Nonetheless, she tightened her grip on Bedlam's hand slightly, smiling to herself when they bumped together, and continued to follow.[/i]
-
They walked for quite sometime before they came upon a wide river with a decently small waterfall feeding it. Bedlam let go of Cyra's hand and turned to her, gesturing towards the water with his hand. "Want to go for a dip? Might be fun."
-
"Uh... I dunno." [i]She looked over at her cybernetic arm, weighing her options. With a sigh, she clicked a hidden button on the arm, and it suddenly... ejected itself from Cyra's side. Her right side was now armless, and where the arm was attached to the torso was a literally screw for the cybernetic arm to screw itself onto. Additionally, she laid down her weaponry, before looking over at Bedlam, grasping his hand once more. She nodded once, signaling 'why not'.[/i]

Edited by Stitch: 6/16/2017 8:27:30 AMBedlam took off his shoes, vest, shirt, and pants which left him in just his boxers as he made his way to the edge of the water. "I could make your arm water resistant for a small amount of time if you want."
-
"It's alright," [i]She responded, shaking her head. She followed Bedlam's example, pulling her tank top and sweatpants off and kicking her slippers off her feet so she would be left in her just her underwear. Apparently, there was not a shred of embarrassment coded into Cyra. And so, she took Bedlam's hand once more, waiting to follow him.[/i]
-
He led her to the water's edge and slowly sunk into the river, never letting go. "Embarrassement isn't coded in, is it?"
-
"I'd assume not. Why?" [i]She replied, gripping Bedlam's hand back tightly. She simply looked ahead, slowly wading deeper into the river.[/i]
-
"Your face would be red and you may not have stripped down. Normally girls don't get undressed that fast near me. I think that was a record." He chuckled as he released her hand and swam backwards slowly.
-
"Unsure why somebody would refuse to take clothing off... don't you do it every day? Showers, changing?" [i]She shrugged, before beginning a slow freestyle; she could still swim at a decent pace, even with only one arm; however she wasn't swimming straight forward, ag all.[/i]
-
"Yeah, but stripping in front of someone you're attracted to is extremely hard for some people because they get embarrassed...and other things. One of those things is the chance of rejection. Some people may hesitate, thinking their body isn't good enough." Bedlam swam over to Cyra and lightly tapped her on the head.
