Animatronic Hero

Part 4: Confession, Transformation and School

I got bored real quick.

"I'm going to look for more Quirk Glows, I think Ennard was almost finished" I speak up when I saw Me Smiles get up unhampered by Suzy, reprogramming complete.

"I'll join you, we're technically meant to be wandering so I'm a bit restless too" She giggles, a flutter in my stomach.

We walk out and start to roam a bit.

I collect a few bits I hadn't seen yet and Suzy walked me through places I hadn't checked or been.

We got to talking and I learnt a fair bit about her, not as a member of the Animatronic group but as a person.

She likes any form of lollipop, but prefers peppermint, she likes to meet the girls more than the boys but she doesn't like how incessantly long the girls talks, which is a plus for her towards the boys.

She dislikes adults, mostly the rude gazes of men that stare at her more sexualised form. The women give her either patronising or scathing looks for her prominent chest which is better than most of theirs naturally could get to.

And...

"You're scared of dogs?" I ask surprised.

"Yeah, they like to pee on fire hydrants! To them I'll look like a specially designed one and they'll pee on me and I'll rust into oblivion!" She glared at me, as if daring me to challenge her.

I couldn't help but chuckle.

"Suzy, that's adorable" Pops out of my mouth randomly.

I slap a hand to my mouth in shock and see her peppermint cheek candy spin rapidly and her eyes change from their blue to solid pink and blink a few times before change back and she sort of pulled her head into her shoulders and moved her body nervously.

"R-Really?"

"Yeah, especially since you have anti rust and can replace any rusty parts anyways"

She leans in to my face a bit to scare into my eyes to see if I'm telling the truth.

How? I dunno how she'll do that.

But it causes me to blush profusely.

Do I...

Have a crush on Suzy?

No crushes are described to be completely mentally focused, these gut and chest reactions sound like-.

Her jaw falls off and I catch it in reflex before it hits the ground.

"Oops, I thought I fixed that" I mutter.

"Why did you blush?" She asks.

"Hmm? I'm not sure why did your eyes go pink?" I asks, trying to avoid the question.

"I asked first"

"I asked second"

She froze as she tried to think of a way around that.

Her cheeks spin and reverse spin back and forth as her eyes flicker a bit.

Eventually she answers.

"I... Keep experiencing a sensation I cannot understand" She says much softer.

"What sort of sensation? Did I mess up some upgrades?"

"No... I feel a... Warmth in my body but my systems come back as if there is no excess heat. It's... Makes me feel fluttery somehow... But how do I know what fluttery feels like when I have no sense of touch?" She just explained the exact same stuff I'm feeling.

"Is the warmth here?" I tap her candy all glass, her hand moves my hand over where a humans heart would be making me widen my eyes in further surprise.

"Here..."
