﹙ Grinning so wide, he clasped that undeveloped photo to his chest and peered upwards, a couple of his mechanical legs hooking onto the brick surface. ﹚
I'll be back tomorrow, show up! Y-y-you can check yourself to see if it's worked.

Fine. But this is the last time, got it?

The way his legs tapped so carefully on the hallway carpet, avoiding noise while he peered around the bend. His fingers clamped anxiously on the long lens that extended from his body.
.. and he paced after the sound of walking, to follow.
Just enough behind in order to ensure his safety.

While he couldn't help the way his mind raced, trying to pin together thoughts and understanding on the strange soul, he could help how he paced his way over to the door.
How he opened it.

“ But I'm.. I-I'm not exactly hiding, I'm shielding my skin. It's sensitive, and I don't exactly like not looking human, ” the shutterbug hurriedly explained, seemingly underestimating the other's abilities, but he did back off about the photo. For now.

One hand reached up, out - fingers making more of that very odd and creaking noise.

His hands were hesitant in doing so. He wanted to keep it after all, and being this honest - he couldn't help worrying if he should've taken a photo before they got this settled and social.

That question caught his attention, head turning towards his guest in surprise. A brief flicker of color touched the monochrome entity's face from a flattered confusion.

Instead, he made his way along his room and back towards his kitchenette, setting that camerabox down onto a counter and retrieving himself a drink.

Clammy hands reached to clasp onto that old camera, pulling it up close without even checking in for permission. Excitement tugged a full grin as he began to pace back and forth.
There were those whirrs and clicks in full swing. “ If I could- wow, it's awesome! Where did he get one? ”

“Hmmm? Of course. I sometimes take photos as a hobby, and a little blackmail. Heehee.”
He showed a pictograph box to the multi-legged figure.
“Careful with it. It’s not mine. I took it from my buddy while he wasn’t looking.”

Stepping over slowly, carefully, visibly trying to pace himself to seem less intimidating, he offered out the foil-wrapped takeout bite. “ You're interested -? ”
