This is Ratchet. Who else hails from Cybertron on this ship?

How many here woke up organic? I've made a perusal of the activity on the network already and I am quite curious.

How interesting. I've never heard of self-aware robots. Of course, I cannot include myself in that, as I previously had no body. And even then, to be quite honest, I was programmed to be aware. I did not come to it on my own.

It must be difficult being stuck in an organic body, in that case.

Programmed to be aware. That is a novel method.

Difficult is putting it mildly.

Humans are incredibly creative, when left to their own devices. [If his voice wasn't so sincere, that would sound like a jab against humans.]

I apologize for how hard it must be. If it's any consolation, it may be easier for you. I never had a physical form, human or robotic, before now.

Quite. Humans are a fascinating and quirky species.

I am adapting well enough. How are you handling being embodied so far?

I admit that I do have some trouble, especially with things such as typing and, to some extent, walking, but I have been doing my level best to make the transition as smooth as possible.

Motor control then. That will take some practice especially for those who were not originally bipedal, let alone with any sort of body.

I do believe that I'm making as much progress as I can be expected to, however. I understand that physical dexterity is an important part of living as a human, and I would not like to fail in that regard.

it is an important part, yes. It helps with social cues and humans use body language to also communicate.

I've noticed that. I would rather not upset someone by sending the wrong signals.

A wise idea.
