Sorry there's no background. The layers went weird on me! D: Well, enough excuses. Here's Steam's story!

-Bzzt- -A. I. Artificial. Intelligence.- -Click click whirrr-

Steam was made by a scientist. A completely sane, run-of-the-mill, boring scientist. Steam was created to keep the scientist's socks warm. For some reason, the scientist thought a dog-shaped robot would be perfect! Alright, maybe she wasn't completely sane. The scientist. Anyway, something went wrong in the dogbot's design, and it developed feelings. The need to be loved came first. Then Steam developed the need for food and water. The scientist was delighted, seeing as she'd created life and would become rich. She started laughing menacingly as she imagined all the things that she would be able to do with that imaginary amount of money. By this time, Steam had developed more feelings. Steam was extremely frightened by the scientist's scream-whoop laughter. So, she ran away.

The scientist continued laughing for ten years. It stopped because she had an extreme craving for a sandwich. So she made one. And ate it. And then continued laughing.

Steam, being the resourceful dog she was, began to take residence at a junkyard. She became best friends with a ladybird, which was a bug, so it never returned her affections in a perceivable way. She was fascinated by its buzzing, and so attempted to construct a pair of wings. She used some discarded horse tack, some glass, odd bits of lamps, and sheet metal. Also, an extremely defective pocket watch, which only Steam could ever possibly read the time on. She acquired an affection for the watch, though it clashed with her wings, and began to wear it everywhere.

When she was done making the wings, one promptly fell off, and, as you can see, the other is gradually falling apart. It used to have a few more segments to it. There are scuff marks on her face from digging around in the junkyard. Steam claims to have given up on her wings, but that doesn't stop her from trying. The scientist is looking for her, seeking riches and fame. And riches. Riches especially. Steam continues naively playing with her ladybird.

And scientist lady wants you to make her a sandwich.

I hope you liked my entry! ^-^
