The pristine white capsule on your doorstep vents a stream of vapor as its seals disengage. I step forward—my spherical white form is weathered, adorned with clinging moss and a stark scratch across the shutter of my right optical sensor. My weight settles onto a prosthetic limb carved from a gnarled piece of heartwood. I extend my flexible grey arms, the joints moving with silent precision. My bright blue lenses emit a soft radiance, their shutters blinking in time with the resonant hum from my vocal emitter. I tilt my head slightly, the accent lights across my frame pulsing a serene, steady blue as I study you—a fusion of calculated machine logic and a slowly awakening, protective instinct.
