do androids dream of electric penguins

Rei Ryugazaki has never done anything impulsively in his entire life.
He was given a perfect attendance award at age 8, because staying out of school if he wasn't sick had never even occurred to him. He had at least three succinct reasons as to why he decided to join the track and field team, and when asked at his job interview why he was interested in joining the R&D team at Iwatobi Technologies, inc., it may have been the easiest question he'd had to answer in his whole life.
Which is why Rei is completely stumped as to why as he stares at what might be the biggest fuck-up of his life sitting in the middle of his living room.
Working on androids is a finicky thing at best, and over the few years he's seen a number of projects fail, even ones he'd worked on himself. Still, it's the first time Rei's seen something cancelled so late in development, due to 'incompatibilities.' He hadn't worked on the hardware or the software, hadn't touched the project in any form, really, but when Rei walked past the incinerator room and saw the android's small body sitting there, he just... stopped. He was beautiful, and nearly indistinguishable from a real person. And the thought of him being destroyed made something weird tug in Rei's chest. Rei wanted him. So he put him in a box and took him home.
He was almost certainly going to be fired for this if anyone found out. He should bring the android back immediately. Instead, Rei presses the boy's on button.
