"Why would anyone show you contempt - ?"

The question is out of his mouth before he can really think on it, almost-black eyes full of concern. It's a second after that he realizes his question, and furthermore - remembers that even if he hasn't been on the receiving end of that sort of scorn, he knows someone dear to him that does. The guilt makes him wince. Ah. Right. Of course, people show contempt to those who are different... but still, he seems like a wonder, and those eyes make his heart skip a beat. He's hoping his ears only feel hot and aren't getting red.

"My apologies. I understand, though..." Belias found himself smiling as his shoulders relaxed. "Curiosity and awe is all I have for you. I assumed you weren't fully mechanical - Nisha gets a bit scared around golems and automatons... quite the traditionalist, this one." He looked to his dog with a cheeky glance, laughing a bit to himself. "I suppose - may I ask if you get cold due to the metal transmitting temperature?"
