Getting to First Base
Part 1 - Getting to First Base
The year was going to be difficult for Ryan, his practical work in computer science, one of the most important courses in his engineering school, was supervised by Mike Parson, a teacher-researcher who was much more interested in research than in teaching, he knew he was the worst teacher possible. Despite this bad news, the young student tried to remain optimistic, but his first computer class of the year really turned into a nightmare when he realized that the work was done in pairs on a single computer and that obviously the number of students was odd. From that moment he had already understood what was going to happen he was going to be the unlucky guy who was going to find himself alone and was going to have to do everything himself and unsurprisingly this first practical work session of the year had turned into a disaster... and of course Parson had done nothing to help him despite being at a disadvantage.
The following week Ryan had prepared himself psychologically to undergo his new 4 hours of weekly torture, it was going to last all year, he knew it and he had resigned himself to it now, he was ready to endure the criticisms and harsh remarks of Parson, who, by the way, had not yet arrived. He was not the kind of teacher who arrives late and everyone began to hope that the afternoon would be free until he arrived accompanied by an incredibly attractive young brunette that he didn't even bother to present to the rest of the class. He held that stunning young woman firmly by the arm and brought her directly in front of Ryan and explained to her that she was automatically paired with him for the academic year.
"Now let me introduce you to Ryan, every Thursday afternoon, we'll come here and you'll work alongside Ryan" Parson motioned the young woman to sit down and continued.
"This is your workstation, you must help Ryan to solve the exercises, without forgetting to speak with him, I'm sure he'll be very happy to get to know you better" he was now addressing Ryan
"Katie is one of my most promising students, but she also has a bit of an autistic side, but I really care about her! so be patient if she's a little slow" As she sat obediently right in front of him Ryan couldn't believe how she chose to dress for her first day, pink heeled shoe, redish pentyhose, ultra short mini skirt, and a short and excessively tight pink cardigan, compressing an incredible pair of breasts... It was obvious that she was not wearing a bra. Parson was petting her small head as he spoke to her again.
"You will get used to spend time with Ryan, I'm sure he'll be nice to you and that you two will get along very well" the young woman nodded happily
"Come on, introduce yourself, say hello to Ryan" he added while patting her head, a sweet smile immediately plastered itself across her lips
"Hi Ryan, I'm Katie Sparks, I just arrived on the university campus so excuse me for being a little shy" Her voice sound youthful, flirty, and had an over-enthusiastic pitch and tone that was nice but also felt a little off.
"Yes exactly, everything is new for her, she still needs to adapt to her new environment, so I ask you to be understanding with her, especially at the beginning" Ryan mumbled an uneasy "yeah, sure..." while avoiding looking at her too much. Any other girl dressed like that would have been a little too provocative for Ryan's tastes but strangely, that wasn't the case with her. Behind her friendly and bright smile Ryan could feel that deepdone she was not so confident, almost shy and hesitant, somehow overwelmed, inexplicably she seemed fragile and delicate. Ryan thought that indeed Parson was telling the truth about her, she seemed to be taking her first steps outside of a specialized establishment, certain things in her behavior could indeed suggest autism but Ryan was far from stupid, he also knew that a robotics lab took up a good part of the the university campus, he knew that Parson worked there and he knew that this lab had developed almost completely realistic looking robot prototypes. There was even a persistent rumor that these machines could be crossed in the corridors of the university without anyone realizing it. Could she be one of those ultra-advanced robots ?
If so, she was altogether an incredible marvel of technology because Ryan couldn't even hear the slightest sound of whirring micro-motors or the whine of servos. His suspicions came rather from the way she answered questions and solved exercises. She and he were working in pairs so he was the only one to notice but she clearly seemed to have been programmed with all the answers, only she seemed to have no understanding of what she was doing : Every time Ryan asked her a question about what she was doing or how she solved an exercise so easily she was unable to explain a single thing to him... In the end she didn't seem so different from all those artificial intelligence systems based on deep neural networks, she was a formidable machine to imitate, but remained unable to make any sense of what she was doing and of the world that surrounds her.
He was more and more tempted to take her arm and pinch her as hard as possible, at least he would have the clear heart of it but he still hesitated, if in fact she suffered from a form of autism, he thought of the utter humiliation she might have felt at being mistaken for a robot. It would have been horrible for her and he didn't want to risk traumatizing her. Too many questions had piled up in his head and luckily the break came, the 4 hours didn't happen all at once and the students had 30 minutes to decompress, he quickly left the classroom to clear his mind until 2 of his mates came over and told him everyone was talking about this new girl before adding "man she's super hot" Ryan suddenly realized that Katie hadn't followed the group and was probably left alone in the classroom, he hurriedly returned to the classroom building.
Indeed she had stayed in her place, he took the time to observe her from the doorstep, she was not aware that he was looking at her, in fact she seemed to be totally lost...
When he got closer, he realized there was definitely something wrong: She looked like she was on drugs or something. Her mouth was half open, she was looking at her feet, then at the ground around her, then her feet again. She seemed unaware of what was happening around her. Her beautiful hazel eyes blinked slowly in a strangely frequent and regular way. Then her little head just tilted forward as the steady blinking stopped. Her eyes seemed half-closed and everything that gave her the illusion of life seemed to have stopped. Ryan advanced little by little towards her, she had really beautiful silky, slightly curly light brown hair that fell to her shoulders. She seemed to be sleeping peacefully, Ryan sat in front of her as silently as possible, he expected her to come back to life at any moment.
Ryan kneels in front of her and started to touch delicately her legs through her semi sheer pantyhose. He looked at her. She was still frozen. He decided to push things a little further and started to massage her left leg as his heart started to beat faster. It was really tight incredibly tight. Ryan could smell the elusive scent of plastics and rubber, It was like the smell in a brand new car. Maybe it was coming from those pink high heels shoes she wore... or maybe she had been put toghether just a few days ago and Parson wanted to test how realistic she was
As he was inspecting her left thigh he noticed something. There were two faint plastic marks running on the outside and the inside of her left leg. It was hard to tell if that line came from her pantyhose or was a mark of how her legs were made.
As his mind raced, Ryan was still touching her but he couldn't feel any muscles or anything of that sort. He spread her legs a little more until he got a nice view on her panties. As he was now touching her thigh, it started to feel a little wrong. he was pressing hard, trying to grab some muscle or something but it felt like I was groping a thick layer of silicon with some rubber under it. He pinched her leg as hard as he can, just to be absolutly sure... No doubt about it. Katie was a real robot.
Glancing over her to make sure he was still alone in the classromm he moved his hand closer and closer, as he reached her crotch, he could tell she was fully “equipped.” Then when he push his hand against her clit, he heard a distinct "BIP" coming from the inside of her as she suddently spring back to life.
She immedialty open her eyes again and after a second she smiled warmly at him without saying anything, Ryan was looking deep in her big bright hazel eyes, then at her soft smiling lips, She wore some nice red lipstick with some warm orange undertone, it was beautifully done, Ryan suspected it was not lipstick it was just how her silcone lips where painted as she came out of the factory. Her youngfull friendly face just looked impossibly naturally flawless her tanned complexion were too perfect to be real but her makeup was somehow almost invisible.
"They all left me here all alone... Mister Parson told me that the students would come and talk to me if I was nice to them" she said, he was totally amazed by the perfect piece of technology she was. For now Ryan was determined to be as nice as possible with the lovely robot girl, after all, she hadn't done anything wrong and she was just so sweet and friendly towards him.
"Look at me, I came back to see you" he told her with a smile as she giggled with sincere delight "Looks like you're the only one who likes me, Ryan !" Katie chirped, sounding just as enthusiastic. Something was totally different, he knew she was a robot, a machine, but he just felt comfortable with her. He felt relieved to no longer have the slightest doubt about her, everything was simpler now, her perfect body no longer intimidated him, she was after all only a sophisticated toy and for now he felt rather playful. Katie on her side was confusedly aware her private parts had been touched but she did not understand much what it could mean. Her intuitive AI only sensed that Ryan was in a different mindset about her.
"Something happens to me...My panties seems tighter... When I spread my legs" Katie said with a coyness to her voice that caused Ryan to raise an eyebrow. He just couldn't help to take a good look at the rest of her incredible body. She really looked like she had applied way too much self-tanner everywhere, but somehow it really looked good on her. Maybe because somewhere he knew she wasn't hiding her imperfections, it was her real skin except it was made of some kind of silicone. It was just what she was, she couldn't do anything about it...
"The seam presses into my crotch" She licked her lips and smiled, then added, "I could have trouble taking it off sometimes !" Ryan notice her pink panties were clearly visible under her shockingly short miniskirt. As Ryan was still speechless she spread her legs and arched her back before adding proudly "I can dress myself without any help... but I'm still practicing undressing, I'm sure I can still improve !" She was obviously a machine but machine or not she was amazing and Ryan can't help to think "God damn ! That thing is really hot" She was just surreal. He suddenly realized that his eyes were fixed on her chest. Unlike the previous hour, he no longer felt any embarrassment looking at her unreasonably compressed pair of breasts in her ultra-tight pink top... after all, he knew she wouldn't judge him. He was still in his thoughts as she interrupted him.
"Do you like looking at my boobs?" The lovely little android was still smiling, beaming practically. "I think I should wear a bra." She added as she crossed her legs. The leg on top was slightly swinging, her left high heeled foot was pointed toward him, bouncing up and down. Ryan had noticed that some student had already returned to the computer lab and he expected Parson to be back any moment, it was time to calm things down.
"Well, Katie, I'm not an expert but I'm not sure it's really the best idea to wear a bra with such a tight top..."
Katie’s head tilted, ever so slightly, to one side and she pursed her lips. Ryan could tell that she wasn’t actually “thinking” rather her processors were mulling over the words, converting them into usable data, and formulating a response.
"Yesterday mister Parson told me wearing a bra is always better !" He felt he should respond something to her, but the conversation had gotten so awkward "My boobs look bigger when I am standing bare breasted but the weight of my breasts makes my balance harder… I should wear very tight top or nice bra to lift them and separate them nicely… that's what mister Parson says ! Ryan was suddenly shivered when he saw Parson come back into the room. He grabbed the robot firmly by the arms to make sure she was fully focused on him.
"mister Parson... wants - us - to - work... together" He made sure to pause to give her the time she needed in case she has trouble to understand him, then seeing the teacher coming towards them he hastened to add "please don't talk about your boobs or your crotch when he's there"
Ryan could never have imagined that a machine such as Katie could exist. She looked so real, with her sparkling eyes and kind smile, she was just the prettiest girl on the university campus and she only cared about him, it was just too good to be true.
But as soon as he got back to his tiny dorm room he felt very uncomfortable thinking about her again. He enjoyed talking and watching this wonderful young beauty but in reality she was only a machine made to manipulate him and deceive his senses. He knew that the day his classmates found out what she was he would look like a fool. he considered more and more he should reveal to them what she really was but he quickly realized on the contrary that he was rather lucky to be the only one to know her secret.
His first idea was to use her to cheat on exams, after all she knew all the answers in advance but very quickly Ryan realized that his privileged and seemingly very warm relationship with one of the most beautiful girls on the university campus had completely changed his social status. Girls who would never have talk to him before now seemed to be interested in him... Of course sometimes they asked him about this "mysterious girl that we only saw in practical computer work and then disappear after" but often they just came to see him... just for him, because after all, if this "Katie" revolves around him so much... there must be something really special with this guy !
But after a few months his perception of her changed, in his eyes Katie has become much more than a simple technological curiosity that can sometimes prove to be useful. After all, she was a perfect girl fantasy evolving by his side and very quickly Katie became an important part of his sexual dreams and fantasies, at first as a very real young woman, but after a while he also dreamed of himself, repairing her or reprogramming her. Sometime he was helping her as she was malfunctioning and needed some help and sometimes he was literally tearing her to pieces progressively dismantling her until the perfect creature she seemed to be, simply ceased to exist. After all, she was the object of his fantasies but she was also really an object...It was no surprise that sometime he took pleasure in imagining her exposed in such a way since that was the only state in which, the sexual fantasy that she was beginning to become and the reality of what she was could coincide in his mind... Progressively Ryan became fascinated by the absolute ideal of feminine beauty and the concentrate of technology that she was, and this dual nature of her was never more visible than when he imagined her firm and voluptuous body, revealing some electronic circuits, blinking and beeping softly as she talk and smile so kindly to him.
Paradoxically, this mental phase helped Ryan to feel fully at ease with her. His mind began to accept the idea that she was both a machine, an object made to give the illusion of life, but also something beautiful to look at and that he was simply happy to be able to share moments with her in such a privileged way. He spent more and more time explaining all sorts of things to her that she didn't seem to understand. The artificial girl's inability to make obvious logical connections between simple concepts had become an object of amusement for Ryan. Gradually he had developed a certain talent for explaining the basics of the computer course to the synthetic young woman, he used simple words, breaking down the ideas between them in order to be certain that the computer or whatever was inside her can grasp the meaning of his explanations. It was hard work, but each time the electronics inside her tight little plastic body, seemed to really understand what was being explained to it, the delightful reaction of naive surprise and shyly concealed pleasure that followed really did something to Ryan. Each week with the robot was more enjoyable than the previous one.
Yet he still suspected that all that seemed to think and feel the young robotic student was only an illusion. That enthusiastic smile, that little wave of the hand, that grateful look was nothing but the fruit of billions of weightings and parameters of her neural networks. Networks whose each exit controlled a mechanism behind her beautiful face or an artificial muscle of her dream body, a network whose each entry received information relating to their interactions but without really understanding them, a formidable imitation machine, but nothing more. Ryan knew this but couldn't help but feel some form of empathy for the robot, she seemed to have the IQ of a naive 5 year old child while exhibiting the body and attributes of a 20 year old young woman at the peak of her beauty and fertility. This strange mixture was doing something to Ryan, he had a hard time admitting it to himself but this machine, this beautiful artificial young woman, he began to feel a deep sense of attachment to her.
For his part, Parson, the teacher who supervised the practical computer work, very quickly understood that a special relationship had developed between the young synthetic woman and this student. Katie was the most important research project of his career, and he constantly watched the robotic girl out of the corner of his eye throughout the lab sessions. Besides, he did not hesitate to intervene regularly even if it meant interrupting the exchanges of this young couple of a new kind. Indeed when Parson spoke to Katie it was never about exercises or practical work in fact he came to tell her how to stand, what to do or what to think "Why did you say that?" "Don't stand so straight" "Look Ryan in the eye when he talks to you" "Go see the other girls during breaks" "Stop smiling at me stupidly, I'm your teacher not your boyfriend" "Don't give answers too quickly" "Did you even realize that Ryan was trying to help you?"
In fact he behaved with her as with a pet that must be rewarded or punished... and Ryan was always in the front row to witness these exchanges. Throughout the year Ryan had begun to feel increasingly sorry for the artificial girl who usually didn't know what to respond to Parson's verbal assaults until she often found herself on the verge of crashing. Once, he had even had to directly interrupt an exchange between the teacher and the young synthetic girl for fear that her system would end up crashing in front of the whole class because he felt her so confused and lost by the flood of questions and uninterrupted remarks that she had to undergo.
In fact Parson was such an unpsychological man that he didn't even know how to talk to the robot he was developing. Fortunately he was smart enough to realize that Ryan, on the other hand, was rather good at talking to the machine and that the boy was "useful" to him...
Then quickly summer arrived, the end of the school year approached and Katie... katie became very different from what she was at the beginning of the year, more curious, more sociable, more talkative also, before class started she was always going to greet Ryan warmly the second she saw him walk down the hall, so everyone in the class considered the two to be officially together.
The reality was quite different though, in fact Ryan wasn't even sure she was capable of sex or even just kissing. Obviously he knew from their first meeting that she was apparently fully equipped for it, but everything she said or did since that first day seemed to indicate that she just wasn't programmed for that sort of thing yet. Anyway, he didn't know how to approach the subject with her. It's not that Ryan was shy but he was starting to know Katie very well and he just suspected that she probably wouldn't even understand what he was talking about. He just didn't have the possibility to broach the subject in good conditions for her as for him... Katie just disappeared too quickly at the end of class and the break in the middle was too short for that too.
Finally to his great dismay Ryan had noticed that Katie had unfortunately started to show signs of multiple wear and tear, for example the synthetic skin around her knees was taking on more and more unnatural looking creases when she was standing up... but it was especially her hands that had begun to seriously worry him, they were frail in appearance with small fingers that were quite short but above all very thin, which seemed to him really fragile. Throughout the year they had seemed less and less mobile until she stopped typing or even writing and it seemed to him that today her hands were barely good enough for turning a door handle without being able to do much more.
Eventually Ryan was slowly starting to realize that once the year was over he would probably never see her again.
Then one day when the school year was almost over she just didn't show up at the start of the class, Katie had never been late before and Ryan immediately thought it was all over that she was probably already disassembled and that there was nothing left of her except spare parts stored somewhere in a laboratory.
He had regrets but regained hope when he realized that Parson looked obviously worried and upset, that day, things didn't seem to be going as normal, so maybe Katie hadn't been scrapped yet, maybe it was just something else...
