[Synth...
“I should really look over the source myself before installing this,” you say.
“Good technopath,” Synth says, “I would give you nothing if you were going to be careless with it. Here, just take the package and look it over yourself.”

You decide the task at hand demands your attention, the reputation of all femboys is at stake!
