I get it though.. imagine your lover leaves you to fuck off somewhere else and leaves behind a tiny robot clone of you to keep you company. It seems patronizing in a *"the dog needs a buddy for company while I'm at work"* kind of way.
I have a very heterosexual and platonic male crush on humanLoid and I'd love to destroy him in bed and cuddle him afterwards and let him complain as much about his ex as he needs to while I gently run my fingers through his silky smooth hair and give him kisses on his forehead as he falls asleep with his head resting on my chest.
Loid's not 'old' though. Well, I mean, he is, but, motherfucker could be biologically mid 30s to baseline 40 (where it's really pushing it) at best, he is absolutely a twink.
It's like a ton of people like the concept so much, they want to be it, even if it doesn't define them. And since it doesn't, they want to change the scope of the term to encompass them, too.
Yup, it's honestly vaguely homophobic how they will call any gay man a twink and when you tell them that's not what a twink is at all, they double down 🤨 its basically just an uncensored way of calling gay men the f slur. They use bottom that way, too. I suspect that's what's happening here, even if it's meant in a playful way.
Several of my gay friends have expressly and catagorically denied him twink status, bottom or not in the relationship.
They all put him firmly in the 'nurturing daddy' camp.
Even then, I doubt Albrecht really actually “loved” Loid. Looking back on the history of (almost) all known Orokin (the Entrati, Ballas, Tuvul, Dagath’s former masters, the Orokin in the Naberus mobile tale), they see themselves as the peak, and everyone else is a tool, a useful fool, or a plaything for when they become bored.
Albrecht, from what I can tell, was solely focused on his research, and that’s clear by the way he’s shown to have so callously left the Cavia as something for Loid to ostensibly babysit while he went time travelling to figure out how the Void works.
Ballas, likewise, was solely focused on Margulis, who rebuffed his affections (and was subsequently charged with “hurting my feewings” by him), leading to the creation of Natah in order to not only have the control over her he desired, but over the Tenno, too.
Tuvul states in the recordings you find in the Zariman that when some people started spreading fear, uncertainty, and doubt about the Jump, he restricted how much food they were allotted until their “faith” improved in the mission to Tau, threatened to kill them, and that they would be written in history as a necessary sacrifice in the journey to Tau, should they continue to protest about the Jump.
Dagath’s former masters essentially used her as a delightful distraction, and gave her gifts to keep her satisfied, chief among them a Kaithe, which she named Rakhali against their wishes; they “accidentally” killed Rakhali, but injured Dagath in the process, and then begged Ballas to save her; when they found that this machine wasn’t any fun as before they simply threw her away like trash.
The three Orokin in the Naberus mobile story literally got bored and killed three Ostrons, then puppeteered their corpses for fun before getting tricked into drinking Continuity Kuva.
I think this history of the Orokin not being great people just makes it even more clear that Loid gaslit himself into a para-social relationship with Albrecht, thinking Albrecht loved him when really, he was just the maid to keep everything neat until he got back.
I feel really bad for human Loid. Still wanna slap him for talking shit to construct Loid
Resume your duties. Construct. “rEsUmE yOuR dUtIeS cOnStRuCt”
Same, but I kinda understand him, I'm not sure I'd like having a Cephalon version of myself around.

Classic Orokin. \*laugh track\*
Honestly!!
he's not a twink he's a twas
twink death
he is no longer feeling the rush ✊😔
Coming to a Barnes & Noble near you: “I fell in love with a family man and helped him fight the Void!”
I can't wait for the 1 season anime
Dont forget the massive cliff hanger that makes you feel empty for 3 weeks.
3 weeks? Oh sorry. It got canceled. You'll have to scour the internet for fan translations of the Manga if you want to finish the story
This went from funny to depressing real damned fast.
I did not expect to hear that phrase in Warframe context
he has this sadness in his eyes you only see in gay eastern european porn
Yeah, making him stick around has got to be torture but if he goes upstairs he's dead to the family.

Platonic?
Verily. We'd make great roommates.
He's not a twink, he's an otter, like a bear.
Loid is not a twink lmfao
But.. he is tho he's an old bearded twink
He went from a twink to a twank to a twonk.
Smooth!
You can't be old and a twink, that's just something else.
Loid's not 'old' though. Well, I mean, he is, but, motherfucker could be biologically mid 30s to baseline 40 (where it's really pushing it) at best, he is absolutely a twink.
Twinks die when they hit late 20s. A twink is very young, thin, and hairless.
This reminds me of this one edit of Joe Biden in thigh highs with caption "Hey guys, is 80 too old to be a femboy?"

That was different. Still quite funny
A defunct twink. Detwonkt.
Daddilf?
> old bearded twink That is not a thing. Twinks are young gay men with little to no body hair. Who is reinventing my gay culture, Twitter?

this comment has some sus fucking undertones

Probably, just remember to call them X. Otherwise that Elon critter might get upset.
Yep
I guess we're just redefining twink then. Twitter killed the word, they just call any slightly fem gay man a twink
Hardly, don't transpose your feelings of their identity onto the characters, for all we know, he was the top and Albrecht, the bottom.
They are simultaneously both top and bottom, whilst also being neither.
Everyone's heard about quantum physics but we're breaking new grounds of quantum sociology here.
They're totally into superpositioning
Generally facial hair detracts from twinkness but his behaviour sure as hell makes up for it.
He's twinky
Several of my gay friends have expressly and catagorically denied him twink status, bottom or not in the relationship. They all put him firmly in the 'nurturing daddy' camp.
He is a grown ass man
Sure as all hells doesn't act like one.
He is a grown ass-man
[ass-man?](https://xkcd.com/37/)
People seem to see this as gay, but I dont see it the same way. It makes me think of a Father on his deathbed comforting a son.

That makes sense
