They're our advisors... Kara and I took the throne when we were just four so they've been behind us since the beginning. We were just discussing a guideline Kara passed to provide... shoulder massages for all the guards.
:::He shakes his head:::
I appologize if she was uhm... forward with you. :::Gods... is she into robot people now?:::

Appologize? Did she do something wrong?
[After he releases Kal's hand he uses that same one to rub the opposite shoulder area.]

:::Kal looks down at the ground to one side:::
I guess that depends on what time you're from. You're... :::tries to remember::: from the early 21st century?

:::Now Kal rubbed the back of his own neck:::
Though... she didn't mention that you were-

[Andrew can read it easily on Kal's face, and finishes for him.]
Not human?

Yeah. :::He gives up trying:::
She left that out.
:::He was about to ask why in the world Kara named a guideline to give massages after Andrew, but then realized he didn't really want to know:::

I had not expected that.
[He returns to his seat.]
Please, how is she?

:::It seemed as though Andrew was genuinely interested in Kara... and not just certain parts of her:::
She's sleeping. :::Kal took a seat::: I should be too, but I've got things I need to take care of before I can rest.
:::Kal isn't even looking at Andew anymore, it's too hard to look past the metal. Hearing him breathe was hard enough to do without flinching. How in the world did Kara handle it?:::
...you're sure she wasn't rude to you?

No, she was not. [breathe] No one in this place has been, as of yet. Why do you ask?

Kara's known for having a level of vanity when it comes to... appearances. Both hers and people around her... Nothing against your character but she's not usually open to people who are, different.

[Andrew gives a nod.]
I see. [breathe] I did not get that impression when we met.
[Now that he thinks about it, Andrew has not gotten impressions of anyone in this place. He could see them, hear them, touch them, but as far as his second sight (as his father calls it) went, he was blind. He scans Kal. Yes, like the others he is human, but that strange sort of silence makes him uneasy. He would never be as talented as his father, but to Andrew it is still as though he has become deaf or blind.]
Even if she were, I was surprised.

:::Kal suddenly became suspicious of her again... was she buttering this poor guy up or something? Was she pulling another version of her infamous Luke trick?:::
Listen, I love my sister, but she's got her own ideas in mind. If she tries anything... just- Just don't let her get to you alright. Heh. And don't tell her I told you so cuz then I'm the one who gets in trouble.
Well, at least now I can explain to the elders that you do indeed exist. :::Though I might also leave out the part about not being human:::

[Andrew nods again, though a little confused.]
Am I to infer that your people... [breathe] know about this place?

Yeah, our civilization was raised on the notion of the Brink's existance... it's kind of a long story. But, consider it part of our religion.
