Androids have been going missing. It's not very well known, because no one wants to cause a panic, but there are whispers in certain circles. Neighbors letting messages pile up, beloved robo-pets not coming back for maintenance or cuddles, it all paints a suspicious picture.
Curiosity doesn't pay it much mind until one of their main customers doesn't show up to pick up his robotic bird after its repairs are done. They know how much the man cares for his bird, if the giant list of care instructions is anything to go off of, and so they decide to investigate. But of course, they can't go on their own! That's a one-way ticket to wherever everybody (everyboty) got taken.

Some strange happenings seem to be afoot. Dear customers, have no fear! Curiosity is on the case.
While she waits, Curiosity browses the news forums, her eyes seemingly fixed on a point in the middle distance while she reads. She's sitting atop the cluttered counter, in plain view of the entrance. Her bag is already packed, and sits beside her on the counter alongside the cage for Mr. Roboto's bird. The bird is in its sleep cycle at the moment, but is fully repaired. She hopes she sees him at some point to return it.

Any adventurers interested in investigating the current disappearances, feel free to message me or just drop by the shop this Saturday at 1:00 PM! There will be snacks! :)

Curiosity waits in their repair shop on the Saturday the investigation is scheduled for, absently feeding Laika a few pieces of scrap metal from their latest project. The door is propped open, with the sign for the shop set up in the window. "Bots & Bolts" is crossed out once and "Robo Repair" is written under it in a different colored marker.
