[{"comment":"Hi Scott!Short and sweet - a great moral treatment at the end as well! I liked the description of the robot and the intro with the surrounding city. I also liked the background you gave your lead character, Thornton. In all, pacing's great, the theme is great, a relatable problem, mechanics seem spot on - congrats! A really good story!R","author_url":"https:\/\/blog.reedsy.com\/creative-writing-prompts\/author\/russell-mickler\/","author_avatar":"https:\/\/images-cdn.reedsy.com\/auth\/avatar\/2151256\/thumbnail_29e2d107f77cd33d6d938773885107435872ec43.jpg","author_name":"Russell Mickler"},{"comment":"Thanks Russell.

It made me uncomfortable. I felt a fear I didn't know I had. The setting reminds me of the Eldari from Warhammer 40K!","author_url":"https:\/\/blog.reedsy.com\/creative-writing-prompts\/author\/ashley-elizabeth\/","author_avatar":"https:\/\/images-cdn.reedsy.com\/auth\/avatar\/2513089\/thumbnail_e64ada02b03b5800e06287411712045de3394481.jpg","author_name":"Ashley Elizabeth"},{"comment":"Congratulations. This is excellent. The same thing happened to me\u2014 I left my scraggly but beloved garden behind when I had to spend a year abroad and my sister-in-law made it undoubtedly better but not mine. \ud83d\ude14. Anyway, a beautiful story with excellent distinction of voices and an important theme.

I wonder if you thought of making it into a novel.

It felt an appropriate read with the dirt still under my nails!

Something about doing your own work on your own yard- the work is the point, you do not want assistance. Eespecially from overeager metal spiders! I liked the character, Thornton and his basic but recognizable motivation. Congratulations!

Humorous and really well told.A keen gardener myself, I totally connected with your protagonist. Although sci-fi, it unfortunately strikes a bit too close to a possibly not too distant future.Congratulations on a well deserved win \ud83c\udfc6 ","author_url":"https:\/\/blog.reedsy.com\/creative-writing-prompts\/author\/shirley-medhurst\/","author_avatar":"https:\/\/images-cdn.reedsy.com\/avatar\/default\/76e8daf43b51c7469b266d37aab6e3ed52f679bc.png","author_name":"Shirley Medhurst"},{"comment":"I read so many stories this week from top of the list and quite a few from the last pages. Still somehow I missed your delightful story. Congrats on the win. Usually I don't care for sci-fi but this was not over the top and definitely still related to humanoid emotions.","author_url":"https:\/\/blog.reedsy.com\/creative-writing-prompts\/author\/mary-bendickson\/","author_avatar":"https:\/\/images-cdn.reedsy.com\/auth\/avatar\/2406977\/thumbnail_9d140900216bbe13149833dafd263c47a6488424.jpg","author_name":"Mary Bendickson"},{"comment":"Clapping.

Liked how your put emotion, reality, and busy world chores together. Maybe you have portrayed a world beyond now. However, I feel the short stories are relatable to the current situation.Regards,Zohan","author_url":"https:\/\/blog.reedsy.com\/creative-writing-prompts\/author\/yaser-zohan\/","author_avatar":"https:\/\/images-cdn.reedsy.com\/auth\/avatar\/2593180\/thumbnail_0ef3d1f22922372f9390c98b74265c862cb2c89b.jpg","author_name":"Yaser Zohan"},{"comment":"I loved this story; although it pains me to know that I'm struggling to write a short story with as much depth and character as this has and you effortlessly tied in a whole new city and setting from scratch as well as an original character and conflict.Keep writing!","author_url":"https:\/\/blog.reedsy.com\/creative-writing-prompts\/author\/katie-steinhauer\/","author_avatar":"https:\/\/images-cdn.reedsy.com\/auth\/avatar\/2482229\/thumbnail_eaf523470d939451a2973e5253057fb88d74aa9a.jpg","author_name":"Katie Steinhauer"},{"comment":"A great short story. Very real in its fiction world. The only very minor glitch I noted is the sentence "I guess I just have to get used to it, he thought.". At his age, Thornton should have already gotten used to the androids.","author_url":"https:\/\/blog.reedsy.com\/creative-writing-prompts\/author\/eilon-solan\/","author_avatar":"https:\/\/images-cdn.reedsy.com\/auth\/avatar\/2522301\/thumbnail_406e0abd5ffcd5919f12fad3238e23687fb073f4.jpg","author_name":"Eilon Solan"},{"comment":"That's a good point. Thanks for pointing it out. I will make sure to watch for such circumstances in my future writing. I love having others read my work for this reason. I am usually blind to stuff like this.

The overly solicitous B-7269, though overbearing for Mr. Gombar, was adorable; I greatly enjoyed its emotional naivety.

I also enjoyed the whole story itself, explaining the conflict that can occur with humans and growing technology!
