[ooc: I am not responsible for what brain bleaching is needed after this. The title is in spanish and with an Argentinean slurr because I suck at titles.]
Quote’s programming was quite direct. Should he receive a request, he’d respond to it flawlessly. Find Toroko? He had had to shoot her down, but he had managed to leave her relatively unharmed. Rescue Sue’s brother? He had ploughed his way through monsters and even rescued a poor scrap that previously wanted him eliminated. Such was Quote’s helpfulness.
But sometimes there were things the android just couldn’t put his finger on. Subtle messages that he wasn’t quite prepared for. Such as a purple mimiga girl snuggling against his back that very moment. Quote was ready for war, not a rabbit lookalike making loud smooching noises behind his shoulder. He didn’t either quite know what to do when she patted his back and ran her hands -paws?- all over it.
Unlike usual, the option was to remain still. Hope for Chaco to get the message that he was weary and needed sleep, that he wasn’t up for whatever she had in mind. But the torture went on for what should have been all night-time in the cavern. After hours of lying completely immobile and at the shameless hands of some needy girl, there was a huff and something was shoved into Quote’s pocket. The mimiga then crawled to what little space was on her side of the bed, and slumped.
Quote hopped off the bed as soon as she laid down. Boots, gloves, hat and neckerchief were put back to their respective places in haste. It was only when outside that he bothered checking the little object Chaco had given him. He blinked at the cylindrical thing and pulled the cap off. He twisted the base and a red, shiny stick poked out. Quote stared at it.

The robot’s eyes opened and he looked blankly at the sky. He pulled out Chaco’s lipstick and held it up for him to see, ignoring the bright screen of his Dreamberry.
If she had wanted so much help with her make-up, she could have just said so!
