kiibo love hotel

>S: When we come here, everyone else starts acting strangely to me...
>S: But can that sort of thing even happen to a robot?

>K: Uhm, Saihara... I have a request.
>K: It's embarrassing, but, you're the only one I can ask something like this.

>S: Let me see, what kind of request is it?

>K: ...
>K: Would you let me romance you!?

>S: Really?! Romance?!
>S: (I know everyone's acting under some delusion here, but when it comes to Kiibo being romantic...)
>S: (But... I feel kinda strange about this.)
>S: ??? Something about whether Kiibo's actually means love or like ???

>K: As you know, I'm a robot. I'm not ashamed of that.
>K: ??? something about how he's never experienced love, shit, no idea ???

>S: Could it be... you want to learn about those emotions from me?

>K: Sometimes humans talk about affection like it's the most precious thing in the world. I also want to experience that. Could you please help me?

>S: Well, should I act like I was your lover?
>S: (Well... as long as... I wonder if I can do it.)

This is too long so I'm just going to start paraphrasing. Kiibo says he's going to act completely seriously, which surprises Saihara.
Then he starts going on an rant about how he should focus deeply on his partner's emotions, paying attention during dates, growing closer and closer...!
Saihara stops him and says he's going on too much, but doesn't offer any concrete objections so Kiibo keeps going.

>K: So, in order to know my love, please walk with me whenever I get sick!
>S: (It's becoming more and more exaggerated! I need to calm him down!)

Anyway he says "but if you don't like me, Kiibo, isn't it wrong to want to be in a relationship with me?"

>K: Well, that is... I'm in trouble if I get stuck there...

He says that it can't be helped even if what he says is wrong, and he's sorry, but:

>K: But I only thought of you when I went to make this request.
>S: Is that so... I'm sorry. I shouldn't doubt your feelings, Kiibo-kun.

Kiibo's unhappy, because:

>K: In love, I ask that you don't be so brutal... I refused to think it would be natural I would be refused...
>S: Oh... I'm not saying I'm refusing your request.
>K: ...really?

Then we get to the voiced part:

>K:It could be that.. I might have fallen in love with you.
>S:Huh? Wha- what?
>K:Right now, I.. It's just a hunch, but I might have developed an extraordinary love for you!
>K:Could we please exchange more warm words with each other? I don't want to let this sensation fade away!
>S:I-It troubles me if you say that, me being the only one actually aware here. Even I'm getting embarrassed..
>K:Then.. at least.. um..
>K:May we please.. hold hands?
>S:Hold hands?
>-still too awkward to say whether to say his budding feelings are love, I can't ignore them- (not really sure)
>S:If that's it, then yeah sure.
>-I extended my hand to him, and Kiibo's robotic hand slowly came to mine.-
>S:You know.. this isn't a handshake.
>K:Huh?! Ah.. you're right. Lovers grasp each other's hands a little differently than that, right!
>K:However.. I am so nervous I don't think I can move. Is it okay if we stay like this for a while?
>K:This is very.. I feel like my heart will calm down a lot more.
>S:Yeah, sure.
>-his hand connected to mine just like a handshake, was supposed to feel very hard and cold, but I felt strangely warm.
