Description

Astor was marketed as a delicate model that could be easily broken if mishandled, but the buyers weren't aware of just how fragile he was. Usually he's kept in rather good condition, but occasionally the children he works with can get a bit rough. Sometimes they are outright hostile that a machine is supposed to be teaching them how to behave, how to be a "good" human.

'Why bother fixing something if it'll be broken again in a week?'

Despite having the money, his owners sometimes neglect and put off repairs and offer temporary solutions such as electric tape and prolonged charging to keep him from breaking any further until the next time they feel like getting him repaired. Their daughter is quite adamant that they are better about it, but sometimes they only tune her out.
