I think Momo just experienced a severe "social database cant find this situation" error ?

Also, whow thread. What the frak is the problem with enjoying watching your relationship partner sleep. Okay, they kind of very early in the relationship, but I think its a good sign Dale is thinking of watching Marigold in the sleep. It means he really likes her.

The only purpose would be to interact better with humans. It is part of the overall body language that she is equipped to display (in accordance with her social interaction database). The database seems comprehensive, I really could need a copy.

As to how: LEDs would give emissive light, whereas natural blushing is reflective light. I would guess some reflective change in her artificial skin, perhaps triggered by a small electric field. Same principle as LCD displays.

Obviously, Momo is engineered to be very human in appearance. She has even fooled humans on several occasions (Padma, Sam, and Hannelore).

EDIT: Hannelore of course knows that Momo is a robot. But in the situation linked above, she was forgetting. This means that Hannelore does not really think of Momo as a robot. I would guess this is because of Momo's human appearance, it is difficult to forget that Pintsize is a robot  :-D

Given this is Marigold.......shit, how do I even word my answer without making it appear or imply that i'm being a "rape apologist?"

Skewbrow:
Yeah. It will help appease Marigold's anxieties/self-loathing/whatever if Dale is still there, when she wakes up. Creepy? Not unless he can't resist and cops a feel.

Poll option? "Only if Marigold is dreaming."

techkid:
A romantic gesture, sure. Sounds creepy, but I think I can probably figure what Dale is trying to mean.

It would be more appropriate for Dale to say that he is happy just to enjoy Marigold's company.

Wait. Is that an improvement?
