Hello.

I am curious about the general knowledge of androids in this place and thought I would ask a few questions, if anyone has the time to answer.

1. Do androids exist in your world?
If so, what are they like? Do they have humanoid appearances, how do they behave, are they designed to emulate human responses, et cetera.
2. Have you interacted with an android?
If so, what was it like? Did you know they were an android? Were they able to successfully 'pass' for human?
3. If androids exist in your world, were there laws passed in relation to them, their uses or 'rights'?
What were these laws? Did you witness them being broken? What were the consequences?

And I have another question, not relating to androids. Regarding emotions –

4. Are there methods available to assist in regulating unpleasant or extreme emotional responses? Preferably with 100% success rates, though I am happy to discuss tools with less guaranteed outcomes or results.

Please respond at your convenience. Thank you for your time.

— Connor

Monsieur, you have not explained what an android is. Whatever they may be, I doubt the existence of them immediately, as I am man with a cynic’s outlook, but I should like to know what it is I’m doubting.

Regarding your final question, I find that wine assists in regulating unpleasant or extreme emotional responses.

[ Or it just makes things worse, but you know, this is his comment and he’s going to be himself!!! ]

However, success often varies.

Androids are robots. Are you familiar with these? I have been made aware that people here vary greatly in the times that they have come from, so if you are unfamiliar with technology this might be quite confusing.

[ He is definitely not familiar with those. He hasn’t even gotten to electric lights yet. ]

I am unfamiliar, and thus I remain cynical. Can you explain further, perhaps, and do something to ease my unabating doubts?

What sort of technology are you familiar with? It might be easier if I just show you.

I am vaguely familiar with the concept of a razor which uses electricity, though I have never encountered one.
