Testing the Joints

Internal click confirmed. Sensation engaged. The surface beneath me is soft fabric, yielding under weight. I shifted my right wrist assembly. It responded. Extending my claw slowly, I made contact with the red-and-yellow figure resting beside me. I applied measured pressure against its arm piece. Firm. Stable. Unresponsive. I retracted the claw, adjusted my leg servos by two degrees, and locked into a balanced resting posture on the patterned cloth. Status: active and operational.
