Few robots experienced love, even with the upgrade they got at the time. It was not them not feeling, though. It was them being more preoccupied with their work. Only some robots tried to find a loved one, but many of the failed right after. They were too busy with what their task was to go out and find someone they loved. Love meant they would have to abandon work, and work is what humans made them for.
One case of robots in love was the strange case of Aiden and Violetta. A singer duo made together, upgraded together and later singing together. Even out of the singing environment the two did not stop holding hands. It was difficult to distance from each other for too long, as it would result in glitching code.
People described the two to be on the wiser end of the musician spectrum. Their concerts were tamer than what it was the standard of that kind of robot. Their fans were a smaller group and even though their music was not too known, their love drove the Internet mad. Their music was in a small number compared to the mass of their photos on the Internet. More people talked about their relationship and looks than the music they produced.
The company "Glazby“ stood behind both of their existence. Aiden performed as a standalone rock musician. Violetta, though, sang love songs about loves she never even met. They found each other right in the middle of the factory sometime around 2085. Needless to say, they immediately caught on. They were quick enough to confess the sparks growing inside their robotic hearts.
At first, there were significant problems. The two had difficulties touring in different countries. Both of their ratings dropped as there were a range of problems in their system. The problems made playing their songs difficult or borderline impossible.
As soon as the two met back in the factory for repair together, everything seemed completely fine. The pair were quick enough to realize what was going on with those glitches. They tried to route the workers to the root of the problem, but robot love was still a bit new to the scene. The 'feel-good' sparks were happening both in love and partnerships. This meant the two could've been collegues, not experiencing love. But something with their network might’ve not been coping right with that. So they glitched through when going across the border.
The workers finally took their request for investigation into action after some negotiation. They sent the two to different sides of the factory with a partner to watch them. The workers finally took their request into action.
At exactly 42 feet first ticks and malfunctions started to form. Their voices changed to the voice of their partner and back. At one point, Violetta's voice shifted to one of her colleauges, Lilly.
At 60 feet, Violetta was unable to sing her signature song. Various lyrics of old songs cycled through a rhythm of something that wasn't even her song. At that point the partners turned back and guided them back. The closer they became the more their voices cleared. As soon as the two reunited they were completely fine.
They were a strange case indeed.
They began touring together at first but were soon to ask for something grander. Violetta and Aiden asked to hold an apartment in their name and have their own studio. This wasn’t usually asked by most robots, who enjoyed living in the group factory with a group set to work on. Aiden and Violetta felt uncomfortable being a pair in the factory. It was full of robots who worked for themselves. They felt music a tiny bit more than a job, especially after starting their own style, soul music.
It took about a year of negotiation to get their apartment. The leaders questioned the responsibility of the two. Robot's feelings were a new thing and officials HAD to treat them like babies in the first decade.
The two got their own studio and apartment ownership in 2090. They proceeded to live the last 10 years in human history in their small apartment with a studio a few blocks away.
Their home is now empty, has been for a long time. Where have they gone, has the storm after the explosion blown them away into the seas and with the dead?
