We could call them Servos. Or maybe just the ones who automatically sense when you need something--and then do something about it.

And why does your waiter look so anemic and petulant? Like he's just had it with whoever took his hemoglobin. And his shirt.

That boy in Meggers's picture ain't even old enough to grow any hair on his chest. I'm surprised his mama let him pose like that.

Meh. I'm more of a historical fantasy girl myself. Waitron sounds like space waitresses in big neon colored wigs and vinyl pointy shouldered serving dresses.

Step aside, Tolkien. Harlequin Romances are the only historical fantasies worth reading!

I felt blasphemous just typing that.
