[The recording is, presumably, accidental. Souji himself is mostly out of frame, although his hands are visible as he works on putting together a plastic model. The thing is half finished and he's popping the remaining pieces out of their plastic casing when there's a sharp but quiet snapping sound.

He hesitates, puts the piece down. Or rather, puts two pieces that should be one piece down.]

...Damn it.

[He sighs and goes about seeing if he can glue the broken plastic back together without the break being too obvious.]

Betcha it's not as cute as Mettaton!

[He half-chuckles.]

Well, it definitely doesn't have that kind of charisma.

[doorkey]

Betcha it can't do high kicks, either!

Is it like building a puzzle?

[video]

[eatsyourscience]

Yeah, like a 3D puzzle. Except once you put the pieces together it's harder to get them apart again if you need to.

[doorkey]

Sounds complicated. But maybe a good rainy-day project!

I don't know if I'd have the patience for it, honestly. Especially if it breaks really easy.

[eatsyourscience]

Yeah, they're pretty easy to mess up if you try to do them too fast. Especially once you start putting the decals on. But if you work on them, they can help you become more diligent.

Sounds like an excuse to play with crafts.

So is that really actually true, or just what you say to your mom and dad, so that they'll buy the kits for you?

[eatsyourscience]

[A quiet laugh.]

For me, it was actually true. But it's probably not like that for most people.

[video]

[doorkey]

Well that's good then, that it works for you!

I want to see it when it's all done! How cute it really is!

I'll take a picture and send it to you. It should look like this. [He shows her the picture on the front of the box.] But things don't always turn out quite right...
