You rested your head against his cold shoulder, his skin glowing in the moonlight. Your eyes traced over his every keen feature, from the curve of his nose, to the point of his chin, to his sable hair framing his forehead, casting delicate shadows across his brow, to his thin, silvery eyes, gazing mindlessly into an unknown oblivion, one you could never be a part of.

You were his creation, made to be his companion, a strange composition of wires and fluids, weaving into an incredible tapestry that brought you to life. Despite your uncanny resemblance to his kind, he always explained to you that you were made by his hands, rejected by the living, but unclaimed by the dead. Though he would live much longer than the feeble beings of earth, he would age, little by little, fading away, until he left his own celestial world, leaving you to live on to wander amongst the stars.

But, how could this be? Your fingertips managed to distinguish both the softness, heat and wrinkled scars in his damaged skin. Tiny sensors built into you identified the tips of his hair or the ends of his lashed, brushing against your cheek. Something inside you contorted into an indistinguishable mess of aches and numbing excitement. These strange sensations swelled inside your chest, growing and growing until you were sure every wire would break and snap, seeping out the burning corners of your shimmering orbs, stinging down to your fingers. Wasn’t this love? Wasn’t this something good and beautiful? Didn’t this make you one of his kind?

Never did he fully answer your restless inquiries. Too lost was he in the space of his own thoughts, a place too far for you to follow, a sea of complex reflections to great for you to understand, an abyss, an oblivion. Instead, he would simply brush his lips against your forehead, lay you gently onto his bed, and wrap you tightly in his arms, as if protecting you from your own mind. He pressed you against him, watched the stars with you, drowning you in his scent, his warmth, submerging you in your own world, your own oblivion.

And frankly, that was more than you could ever hope for...
