It's coffee. And normally I would say you drink it, but that's probably not the best idea. So you can just hand it over to me.

Oh. [He passes her the mug after sniffing at it] What do you do with... coffee?

Drink it. It's kind of my life force. What keeps me going. Without it...I'd...I don't even know. [She takes a sip, smiling. There. Better.]

Every day should begin with coffee.

[And that's Robert going for the mug again. She did say the day should start with it]

So, it recharges your batteries then? I thought that's why you sleep?

[Which she moves out of reach.] Kind of? Caffeine is more like...being plugged in...it keeps us moving. Sleep is like a recharge.

And no. It will short circuit you and Blaine will kill me.

[Fine. He'll just be pouting away] Ok. Sleep is the recharge, caffeine is the... wait. Weren't we talking about coffee?

I can always be rebuilt, you can't. I don't think he would kill you.

Caffeine is in coffee. It's the main ingredient. The thing that makes us go.

True. But he wouldn't be pleased with me, so...

Oh. Maybe you should ask Blaine if he can make you solar powered too! It's much better then having to get plugged in.

He would he mad for a little while, but then he'd rebuild me and get over it.

I don't know...I kind of like my energy in liquid form. There's nothing like coffee. Nothing. Just the smell of it is enough to perk me up. If only there was a way for coffee to solve other problems...

True.

Well, then I guess you can stay normal. Though I'm sure he'd be more then willing to help if you ever changed your mind.

Oh I'm sure.
