Alar cupped his hand to whisper to her, as a few in the crowd seemed interested in their conversation. Eventually they pulled a bit ahead of the crowd, far enough apart to speak normally. Pleasure sparked in his silver eyes despite his grave expression. This was new, different, and fun, while still adhering to his work parameters. None of the managers would scold him for assisting a guest, or at least he didn't think so.
"Your hair color is the only imperfection," he said, drawing his free hand back to stroke his chin. "Even I or my co-workers could be fooled, otherwise."
The android followed her gaze back into the crowd. He almost stopped to allow his new companion a better glimpse at the people, in case she recognized someone. Instead the girl clung to him and pulled him along at the same time. He blinked in confusion but submitted to her wishes, picking up his steps to match her pace. Shops blurred past with their bright displays of trinkets and wafting food smells.
Nor did he understand her mute request for silence.
"Shall we make haste to the attraction? I could lead you through the crowds as quickly as possible, if you wish."
