[ K's reaction has Tech Boy frowning in frustration. He could (maybe) have withstood the kicked puppy look over the hair restriction, but that sadness slipped too quickly into something more real. He should have anticipated it, but the extent of the withdrawal has him bordering on anger like the flip of a switch. It's not anger directed at K. It's not his fault the way he was programmed. He clears his throat lightly before he can speak, his expression fighting to remain neutral. ]

What? No. Don't worry about the hair. Listen.

[ He reaches out to put a hand on one of K's shoulders, ducking his head to seek out eye contact if he can. ]

It's not kindness, K. I mean it. You deserve it. [ Regardless of K's dilemma, Tech Boy truly believes in K's emotional capability above and beyond his programming. And it's not a liability. Far from it. ] She's not here. You don't have to wait for her here.

[ softer ] What if I came up with something? [ Is that inappropriate to ask? K's a person, not a pet or an object. ] Or I'll drop it, if you want me to.
