What in the world is a "Soon"-type android?

Oops. Sorry, Zeke. Didn't realize I was stealing one of your jokes, though it did seem to me amazing that nobody had made the Soon-type android jokes before.

Actually, that TJI was by Marc. (It's a favourite of mine.) I actually thought you were referencing it on purpose.

The joke was probably just in your head from previous readings. I've done that before -- using a joke I only vaguely remembered and thus thought I'd come up with myself.

There's one like that in my 10LC segment. Hey, kids, see if you can find it.

Much like many of the characters in this tale, the suspense is killing me! Can't wait to read the next installment.
