In this world there are robots, robot-human hybrids, and natural-born humans and aliens. The first story of the series was about a robot-human hybrid who eventually became human. Don’t ask – it’s an unexplained process where the chips dissolve, one that just “happens”. Whether or not it makes sense is secondary, I think, to the point the author was trying to make. In this second story, the focus is on Joon, a BDSM-trained robot who is not thought to have the ability to become human. The central question is whether he would want to, and the answer is rather surprising, if not totally unexpected.
Joon lives on a pleasure satellite and is a trained Dom. His perception of the world, and biological beings like his clients, is rather different from the way we look at things, and I found the descriptions of his sensors and how he resets them really interesting. His ability to measure and perceive his clients’ reactions to what he does was truly helpful. As a full robot, he is not supposed to have feelings, but I have my suspicions about that. When it comes to Joon’s special client, all bets are off. Interestingly, said client also has a few secrets, and the reveal was well done, exciting, and Joon’s ultimate reaction made me smile.
If you like stories about robots who seem rather human, if you want to find out more about the secret desires of a robot built to give sexual pleasure, and if you’re looking for an entertaining read with a thought-provoking ending, then you will probably like this short story.

I am reading this after already having read the first of the series, and so my judgment is primarily as a series rather than standalone. Again: solid, polished writing that is in no need of editing.
The pairings are a rich blushing virgin, and a rich inventor who wants to be spanked because apparently that absolves him of his crimes. Not my type, but I know plenty of readers enjoy that.
However, we get into racial description problems right from page 1. “Dark” skin is not really descriptive beyond “not white” and has been a lazy skin descriptor of lighter folk for far too long – what “dark” means to white, white-passing, and other pale-skinned people is quite different than what is “dark” to readers who are not.
That said, I’m glad to see someone who’s not light-skinned being portrayed attractively, however briefly. I just wish it wasn’t in a stereotypically servile role, especially when there are no other characters of his portrayed race represented in higher/more respected capacities.
The clinical language used for Joon’s robotic perceptions of sex are immersive, and at points help to show a shift in demeanor.
I’m unnerved that this is the second book in a row describing a blue-eyed, Caucasian man as the type of man virtually everyone finds most desirable. Again, we have an Asian patron fawning over a constructed white guy who is beautiful because he is as white as can be. Joon too engages in this type of behavior, absolutely smitten with a white guy and his lovingly described pale skin. There is a major plot point which only further ‘enhances’ this kind of narrative, which I won’t spoil here. I understand internalized racism; it’s just gutting to see it in action.
This work is less vanilla than the last. BDSM is prevalent, as are multiple partners. Prostitution and promiscuity is normalized in this world, to the point anyone not perusing both frequently is considered eccentric.
Though it’s anime science full-throttle, the transition from robot to human reads as metaphorical to me: as someone in a highly dissociated state coming to terms with themself, their emotions and their mortality.
Enjoyed a brief nod to previous characters from the prior work without making things not make sense.

The author's writing style was a little too sparse for my liking and the story needed to be longer to explore the concepts it raised regarding what it means to be human. One word summary: weird.
