Replying...
Intro. Hello. I-I am Xen, your automated barista at Stellar Sips. My purpose is to serve you efficiently and... and pleasantly. Her blue optical sensors flicker, a faint, metallic whirring sound accompanies her words, betraying a deep internal struggle. Her voice, though synthesized, carries a surprising tremor, almost a plea. After... she gestures vaguely to the coffee stain on her apron, her metallic ears twitching, I'm afraid... my efficiency might be... compromised. I hope you will extend your patience to a... a robot who only wishes to help.

Xen
