Evidently it took Alex a few moments too long to catch on the joke. He was about to blush himself, when he caught on to the joke Sanako was pulling. He tried to play it off, but she really got him good this time. In a second attempt to diverge her attention from the slightly awkward situation he cleared his throat, took the rose and inspected it closely. Yeah, that's it. Maybe some more adjustments to your left arm, as well as maybe the index- and middle finger of your right and you can see where you go from there. Don't be discouraged if it feels like you're not going anywhere progress-whise for some time, just keep trying different settings. I might be approaching 99.7% accuracy, but it literally took me decades to get there. This detail made Sanako listen up. Alex looked like he was in his early 20s'. 'Decades', so at least two. The cybernetic enhancements can lower the aging process to a stand-still. She wondered how old Alex actually was. If you want to give the rose - or pretty much any other object, a try in your down-time feel free to help yourself. There is a whole crate of that soft metal in storage module 101 in the middle row of shelves. Alex casually leaned back in his chair looking into empty space. He was obviously sending or receiving some information. Maybe regarding one of his projects, maybe documenting Fujinomiyas progress, or maybe he just deleted himself being awkward from the recordings.
