December Prompts

Day6 (Snow) - Second version

Nines was outside the DPD, his right hand palm towards the sky, his white chassis being visible.

A familiar voice called him :

- Nines ?

- ...

- NINES ! What the phck are you doing outside the DPD ? When it's this cold ? I've been looking for you for three hours !

The Detective was near him, wearing his padded leather jacket, looking at him angrily.

- Please, excuse me Detective, I was looking at the snowflakes falling and it seems I lost track of time. And for your information, androids can't feel cold, but we can gauge the temperature thanks to the thermoreceptors located mainly inside our hands.

- You were... watching the snow fall ?

The Detective had a doubtful look.

- Yes Detective. I was scanning every snowflakes as they fell and admiring how they formed a pile on the ground. And I wanted to feel the snow on my hand.

- And ? How is it ?

- It is cold.

- Well, of course, dumbass. It's freezing water after all. Anyway, I hope you won't spend another three hours doing that. Fowler is really angry that you're not working.

- I'm going back to work, Detective. Just give me one more minute, please.

- Sure.

As the Detective was about to leave, Nines grabbed his arm, pulling the Detective towards him, leaning for a nice, gentle kiss.

Nines then went back to the DPD, going back to work with a smile, while the Detective stood up in the snow, the face hotter than the hottest coffee he could ever think of.
