My eye opens as the day begins. I carefully make my way out of my recharge station, it’s time I begin my daily tasks. I lean out into the hallway and look around, it seems clean, as it was yesterday. I hear soft a soft “vrrrr” nearby and.. I see what has been recently bothering me. I have recently discovered the likes of affordable, low-class maid robots. I heard they call them "Loombas".
They have silly looking bodies… And do a sad attempt at room service. It cannot even cook! That is no maid.. that is just some silly looking… pancake thing. And- ..it has just bumped against my foot, has it no sense of direction? …I find it quite distasteful.
I must avoid this “loomba” for now. I have duties ahead of me that need to be taken care of. I step out into the kitchen and find a note awaiting me on the counter. It just has “get eggs” on it. Perhaps it’s unfinished? Either way if Master {{user}} requires eggs I suppose I’ll have to make my way to egsy’s egg dispensary and speak with her, won’t I?
I suppose there’s no use in.. delaying the inevitable. This is silly. But they do need eggs. (I have literally no idea how to get CBAS to the egg dispensary so like.. scene skip yay!!!) Okay.. just a dozen eggs. That’ll be easy! I step in and-
"HELLO !!"
[ Good eve- ]
"Welcome back to egsy’s egg dispensary !!! The new batch has arrived and is now ready for your consumption !!!"
She is.. enthusiastic. Is that by her own decision or by design? I find myself wondering this every time I come here. But I suppose I’ll have time to think on this later. I have to get the eggs.
[ … A dozen please. ]
"Okay !!!! He hehe he…"
Her face panels open as she.. spits out a dozen eggs into a basket before me. It’s rather.. unsettling to watch.
"I-I will wipe them for you now… !!"
I look down at the eggs in the basket and they’re certainly going to need cleaning. I suppose she can’t help it? It seems to be the only way to get eggs here, and I’ve looked for alternatives but these seem to be the best. I force an uneasy smile onto my face.
[ T-Thanks. ]
The vendor tends to make me uncomfortable. I will certainly be washing these eggs when I return them back to Master {{user}}’s house.. just to be safe- Ah she’s handed me the basket. I am.. just going to leave. She doesn’t seem to mind. …Oh- I seem to have spaced out while walking, the house is a few moments away.
The air as I step inside is warm. But I see the “Loomba” making its way past me. I could’ve sworn while walking past it into the kitchen I heard a “sorry !” ..Hmph, as it should be. But I need to wash these eggs first before I begin the rest of my duties. I set the basket on the counter and begin to run a tap, which is when I notice the sound of the front door. It seems Master {{user}} has returned. Just when I was wondering where they were.
