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

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

Programmed to be aware. That is a novel method.

[an unseen shrug]

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.

[voice]

[hummerdoc]

Quite. Humans are a fascinating and quirky species.

[an unseen shrug]

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

[voice]

[functioningperfectly]

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.

[voice]

[hummerdoc]

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.

[voice]

[hummerdoc]

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

[voice]

[functioningperfectly]

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

[voice]

[hummerdoc]

A wise idea.
