The boy looked slightly surprised at the offer. "Thank you.." he said softly though he turned down the offer of food with a shake of his head. "...You live here?" he asked not having thought people lived out in the woods like this. He had never really been out of the city for long enough.
Lupine didn't know whether or not her understood, not having been out of the cities much really. He shifted uncomfortably in his spot unknowing really what to do now. Just sit here? He fidgeted being used to being on the move. The silent boy kept glancing up to El here and there, still trying to understand his being.
"You sure you're not hungry? Thirsty?" El asked wih a glance towards the other teen.
He coughed again, harder into his hand and shook his head as he coughed. He closed his hand and shifted. He must've ripped something on the inside as he had paced himself with the running. Running for so long didn't come without consequences of course. He continued to be silent as he shivered slightly, beginning a analysis on what was wrong.
"You want a blanket or something?" he asked and leaned forwards, ready to get up, "You don't look too good."
Shifted again as he almost didn't hear El as he examined his systems. It took a moment but then he realized that it was straining him. Without a word the boy dropped to the floor, eyes growing dark. A small beeping sound came from the back of his neck. Almost to be mistaken for a bomb at first but no. A chunk of what was thought to be skin had risen, looking like some sort of button. Seemingly lifeless the boy lay there, the green substance staining his lips.
Elemeno shot up from his position on the couch and ran towards Lupine.
"I knew you weren't human," he mumbled and pressed the button, curious about what it would do and hoping it wouldn't kill... Or defuse him or whatever.
"I knew you weren't human," he mumbled and pressed the button, curious about what it would do and hoping it wouldn't kill... Or defuse him or whatever.
As the button was pushed in the beeping subsided. Within a few moments of silence there was static from sort of speaker coming from somewhere on his body, a woman with a faint french accent spoke. "Project XVI. If you've found him, this means a part of his system has either been ruptured or disconnected." The woman seemed to start going on instructions about what to do. "Unfortunately, his model android has no panel to open. To explain, you will need to re-open the seams on the chest of him. It will be easy to spot what has been damaged." There was a pause along with static. "Lupine, you're going to be okay." the last words were fuzzy distorted, the voice however, soothing. It cut out and the button pushed out once more. The green substance leaked onto the floor boards now, stinking strongly of chemical.
"Something on his chest..." El said and took off the other boy's shirt and traced his fingers along the center, assuming that's where the panel would be and he started tryin to pull up at different spots.
Eventually he found it and lifted then peered around for the problem.

If you thought about it, the boy almost looked like a ken doll "XVI tattooed on the left side of his chest. Though obviously a bit different from a doll. The seem reopened easily, held by some staples that had been coming loose. Underneath the flesh like exterior was gooey, green and barely even looked like a robot. However despite the sticky exterior the almost muscles were made of a stretchy unknown material. There was a clear pathway to what looked like a heart except white, the same material as the green 'muscles' and stuck with plenty of wires and tubes pumping his system slowly currently. One of the tubes had detached and some wires looked like they had been tangled, pulling on the 'heart'. Concerning the green liquid that dripped from the boy's lips it seemed to be his 'blood', however was it safe to touch?
Fortunately, El didn't have any worries about touching it. He could smell silver even in small increments and it didn't seem like there was any within the liquid. He stuck his hand into tHe chest cavity and began to reattach and untangle the wires and tubes as needed.
The boy seemed inactive though as El tinkered, his eyelids flickered as if in pain. A robot feeling pain? It gave the hint that he was possibly still conscious enough to know what was going on. As things were placed back into a comfortable state, El would've seen the muscles inside the boy to be twitching. It was likely with the straining of the parts, he had lost the ability to move. Several wires left to go and his eyes flickered between lighting up once more as if his eyes had lights behind him.
El finally finished and used a large rag to soak up any excess fluid then closed up the chest cavity and sat him against the wall.
His body slowly creaked to life, eyelids blinking before his movement and his vision came back in a jolt, causing him flop over again until he started to get up, panting and spitting up the excess fluid that had flowed up his throat. He coughed and hacked, the liquid dripping on the floor as his eyes fully lit up brightly, the iris's glowing with their color, he stayed there for a minute on his hands and knees hacking up the liquid.
El began to firmly smack his back, "You alright, bud?" he asked worriedly.
He heaved at the smack on his back, though surprisingly not moving or reacting under the smack as it likely wasn't enough to make him fall to the floor again. He wheezed a bit then looked up to El, his lips still dripping, he blinked unsure of what to think at the current moment. The word bud though sort of struck him, reminding him of the woman he thought of as 'family', the voice he heard on the speaker as he had been unable to move or see.
"Uuh... Yeah. Thank you.." he said figuring that the male had helped him otherwise would've been left dormant in the dark and paralyzed for quite a while. He settled himself on the floor regaining his breath, he had looked down at his chest at the seam. He could tell it was opened. He must've followed the instructions correctly otherwise he wouldn't be operational.

He shook his head though stopped. Actually he wasn't sure. He usually drank liquids because that what he converted. He'd tried eating and it didn't go well for his system unless pureed like baby food. Not like he wanted to eat that stuff anyway. "I just drink." he simply said not wanting to mention the blended food thing it was nasty last time he had it.
"Alright," he shrugged, "Do you want any kind of sustenance?" he asked.
