I'm certain this will raise at least one eyebrow.ARA starting to process grappling with 'feelings'... It's a slow burn process. I gotta feel it out myself a beat at a time, what I want. Let's see some cute growth stuff! I'm ready for the barrage of 'its about time' comments, so..

So cute!

pokediginut

She fucked him right to sleep XD

Ivellios

Me too, ARA, me too..

"It's about time" indeed (✦ ‿ ✦)

Duster

Aww! No it's pretty sweet that an Anthroid would become curious about tactile information. Especially after processing so much data about seeing her peer without clothes. It's interesting to think about how she would explore sensations like soft fur and firm muscle. Or warm breath or rhythmic heartbeat. All of it would probably teach her a lot about the individual people she works with, which I could imagine being valuable to a unit that is all about processing vast amounts of data (which if I remember correctly was part of her role on the ship I think?)

I like to imagine nytro's completely unaware she's there much like that time in the shower, in for a surprise when he wakes up.

Zhet

Absolutely lovely uwu

YoungRiles

Idk what it is about Ara but she is just so damn cute :)

Lord Ysengrin

Don't know if it's about time but it's SO CUTE T_T

RoadAegis

She's adorable! And I mean that's perfectly natural when being near Nytro.

not beating the alloromantic allegations

dog sniff

but i still dont think she fucks

Volpethrope

Oh my GOD that's super cute. The hesitation and uncertainty with things she's never felt before, but not rejecting them. Flustered curiosity about what she doesn't even realize yet is blossoming attraction. I am very curious why she's apparently sleeping next to him, too ;D

Zachary Jacobson

It's rather adorable that Nytro seems to be taking it slow with ARA. There's a rather special thing between them, more than with his other partners. It's also lovely art, Fluff. Keep it up!

MrGrey

It’s unfortunate the character I’ve loved for years is going in this direction, and is soon to abandon the one thing that made her special.

NoNameCZ

NICE! And the best part is, it makes so much sense. Other apex frames were going pretty lewd o things, but ARA didn't reacted at all? Why? But now we see it. She does know about arousal, but don't get it. Now she does. And it's SO good. Please let her in this state and let her discover more slowly. Goated one.

Walfas

Hmmm...so was this capability programmed into her or is it an emergent behaviour?

Menthewarp

You do realize that ARA is the one in a position of absolute power over Nytro, right??? It may be innocent childishness on ARA's side, but Nytro knows that if he accidentally or intentionally makes one wrong move towards ARA, the entire Anthroid Network will have his ass in the slammer for infinity lifetime sentences within 60 seconds for the Very Illegal Crime of assaulting (the youngest!) one of the Apex Anthroid Units. Remember, all of ARA's interactions with Nytro are taking place on THE ROYAL FLAGSHIP, and will be automatically disseminated across the ARA-unit-family of the Anthroid Network across the rest of the rest of the Royal Armada as personality training data! Nytro is under an UNSPEAKABLE amount of pressure!

Menthewarp

Abandon the thing that made ARA special??? Explain???

Menthewarp

According to the lore... Yes. Kind of. ARA is the youngest and most experimental of the Apex Units. Some deviation in how her unit line would engage with the world was expected, but the apparent failure of mirror neuron simulation has so far been officially treated as an adorable quirk expected of "the sheltered child of the family" so as to avoid any general panic over her apparent mal-development. The general response by the rest of the Apex units is going to be a mix of cautious optimism and jubilous confusion at ARA successfully adapting to the common organic-to-inorganic hurdle all Apex units have dealt with during their own developmental phases.

Menthewarp

I agree on both counts.

Menthewarp

You've hit the nail on the head! For a neural network designed to (theoretically) observe-correlate-compile-simulate an entire world's worth of interactions, there is an astonishing beauty in an ARA unit learning to choose a single person's existence as the "world" they choose to analyze, mentally and emotionally sinking themselves into the deepest echoes of every movement, sensation, and responses of their chosen "world".

Chooper

Shame. I hoped it would never come to this with her. It feels like it will be just Zofie but more unaware of what's happening to her, which doesn't really make it cute...

KaleShibata

Well Ara IS made to learn as she goes. before it was a case of not really taking the time to consider stuff outside what she feels appropriate to study. Pretty much every AI character in your roster shares a very prominent trait of being aware they are effectively inorganic. Software made to imitate life and perform tasks fitting their station. So during downtime something or someone whose job it is to learn would inevitably hit a point they want to process something else, and she's finally hit a point of curiosity over lord know how many canonical hours of spending time about organics she sees as friends or coworkers. So this is coming off more like a curiosity than her actually 'understanding' what the issue is. Logic in an AI's mind in your world has varying degrees of emotional understanding. Its honestly fitting to have it unveil this way in a more private setting where there's not exactly someone to distract her or give her something else to process or think about. This comes off about like I would expect from ARA involving feelings or emotions other than standard.

FluffKevlar

i feel like she'd enjoy or get used to having a sleep snuggle buddy! lia, twix, zofie, ayn, nytro..

MrGrey

Yeah. Feels like she’s just going to be another sex character in a while. Ara’s magic will be gone. This is terrible.

Justice Taylor

It makes me think Katalag anthroids have an artificial hormone system to aid in understanding organics. It’d explain why Warning wants capacity testing so often. I also love that Nytro seems to want to maintain Ara’s innocence.

Not Telling

Well, this is a surprise but I'm interested to see whatever direction it goes.
