I'm continuing with my science fiction romance short Terms & Conditions Apply - I'm so excited to say it'll be out this week, yay! My female MC Marie has been whisked off to a bar by a male-form avatar - Soren - to await transport home, and despite its attempts to placate her, she's still resisting its obvious charms...

“Look, no offence, but your only purpose on this station is to please the clients, and while you’re doing a pretty good job of making me feel a little better, I just got dumped by the love of my life and I’m not up for some construct trying to have sex with me.” The words spilled out in a torrent, and she bit her lip as she finished.
“I see.” The easy smile that had graced his perfect lips faded for the first time. “You are one of those who believe that the AI’s sub-avatars are no more than programmed pleasure machines, solely for sex. That we have no personality—no feelings.”
