Hello. My name is DLN-001 Quake Woman, but my creator calls me Tempo. If that seems strange to any of you, it is due to the fact that I am actually a robot created by a scientist named Noelle LaLinde.

My purpose is geological surveillance, but I can't imagine it would be of much use here. I suppose I should seek employment, but I'm not sure how quite to begin. I would be thankful for help in any way.

That said, I will do my best not to be a bother to anyone. There are many things I do not understand, but I was created with a capacity to learn, so I imagine that will come in time.

Thank you all again.

That's right! How did you know?

[Besides, you know, simple logic.]

... Because... why else would you have one?

[all_wound_up]

...Oh. I suppose that's a good point.

How does that work? I've never seen a fully functional mechanoid made of clockwork before...

I'm actually not sure. I don't know that much about how I was built or programmed...

Re: Video

... I see. That must be quite difficult for you...

No, not really. The worst thing was actually when the Professor would install new functions in me while I was asleep.

[earthshakingbeat]

... he what?!

Um... she, actually. She would do that sort of thing all the time. I never knew what she'd installed until it activated on its own! The time with the cuckoo clock was the worst.

That... that's horrible!

Well... she's only eight years old. I'm not sure she really thinks of it like that.

[earthshakingbeat]

... your creator is only eight?!

Video

[all_wound_up]

Yes, that's right.

They must be some kind of amazing prodigy!

She's very smart for her age! The problem is, she knows it.
