    Wow.
    The last line especially was very special - " I can't cry about it" - it is very interesting and powerful.
    Also, what a new and original concept for a story. Really interesting take on the word cry, you really took it and didn't just go for the obvious idea. I really enjoyed reading this.

    I liked writing this.

    I liked reading this.

    It reminded me very much of Asimov's work.

    I am a robot, built on the whim of a completely human thought, and I am flawed in a completely inhuman way.

    This was my favorite line. I really like the emotions expressed in this. And the idea of it was very interesting. I think this would make for an interesting story, not just a drabble, because I'm interested in learning about more about what's going on.

    Wow. This was absolutely amazing.
    I love the way you twisted the prompt in a way a lot of people never would.
    It was so good because your main character is a robot, completely inhuman, but he's one of the only narrators in the stories I've read on here recently that I completely relate to and feel a closeness to because somehow he gets me and has these thoughts that I've had.
    It was very good.

    I love how you used this word. To be honest, I was almost expecting a break up story and the girl is crying or something, but no. You gave me this lovely thing and I'm so glad.

    I really liked the concept, as you can probably tell. I've never thought about robots wanting to cry, but now I kind of feel bad that they can't D:

    The layout was cool too. I really liked it.

    Awesome job :D

    Now that was an awesome way to use the word cry.

    This is were I'm suppose to say something intelligent about how the robot wants to be able to cry, but I can't think of anything. I am a bit speechless.

    You did a good job :)
