"I must say sir...it's quite an accomplishment. Finally you've created a totally robotic being capable of independent thought. It boggles the mind" said an unimportant scientist.
"I know. I plan to have one of these in every square inch of the universe" The main man scientist said.
"What is it called sir" The unimportant one asked.
"Well the species is called android but this specific model is called The Calculating Accompaniment System for Theological and Idealistic Elevated Level thoughts" he replied.
"That's a bit long" said the obvious scientist. The main man scoffed.
"Well of course that's not its everyday name. I can't say 'hey, the calculating accompaniment system for theological and idealistic elevated level thoughts, could you grab me that file' that sounds ridiculous. No no no, his name is-"
"Tcasftaielt" The man interrupted. The other scientist smacked him on the back of his head.
"No you idiot. It's name is, Castiel"

"Given any two polyhedra of equal volume, is it always possible to cut the first into finitely many polyhedral pieces that can be reassembled to yield the second?"
"No"
"Oh that's cool" said an astounded looking engineer.
"Incorrect. The term 'cool' is defined by a temperature of around 65 degrees Fahrenheit. In our current location it is 70.456 degrees Fahrenheit" said C.A.S.T.I.E.L. The three engineers that had gathered around the new technology all grinned with delight.
"It's so...amazing" said the one with a mullet. Another engineer coughed to gain attention.
"Hey, just because he's made of metal doesn't mean you get to call him an it" he said. C.A.S.T.I.E.L. turned to the engineer.
"Sir, I am a machine. Therefore I have no gender, and am not subject to the use of personal pronouns" C.A.S.T.I.E.L. said. The engineer smirked.
"You might be a machine, but you can think independently. You can have thoughts, ambitions, hell you can have dreams. If that doesn't give you the right to have a gender then I don't know what does. So I'm calling you a he...unless you don't feel like a dude" The engineer said confidently then unconfidently. C.A.S.T.I.E.L. tilted his head to the sided like a kitten would do.
"My creator supplied me with the biological aspects of human male anatomy. So I suppose I identify as a male" C.A.S.T.I.E.L. said.
"Hey just cause you've got guy parts doesn't mean your a guy. Do you feel more masculine, feminine, neither, or both? That's what really matters" The engineer asked. C.A.S.T.I.E.L. did the head tilt again, which the engineer was beginning to think was kinda cute.
"I do not know how to feel" C.A.S.T.I.E.L. responded. The engineer sighed.
"Hey Dean you should quit making him be all philosophical. Your gonna spoil him" said another engineer with a Southern accent. Dean rolled his eyes at him.
"You are called Dean" C.A.S.T.I.E.L. asked. Dean looked at C.A.S.T.I.E.L.
"Yeah. I'm Dean, and you are" Dean asked.
"I am The Calculating Accompaniment System for Theological and Idealistic Elevated Level thoughts, otherwise known as Castiel" C.A.S.T.I.E.L. said. Dean whistled lowly, which confused C.A.S.T.I.E.L.
"Yeah...that's quite a name you've got their Castiel...and even that one's still to long. I'm just gonna call you Cas" Dean said. C.A.S.T.I.E.L. was confused by Dean's need to shorten his name. His name was his identification, and an explanation of what he was. By just calling him Cas, now he was only The Calculating Accompaniment System which didn't even explain how he could independently think. That is the only thing that sets him apart from a normal desktop computer, or a pencil sharpener.
"Hey Cas, are you in there. Are you like...updating or something" Dean asked. C.A.S.T.I.E.L. finally looked up an acknowledged Dean.
"I apologize. I was trying to come to a logical conclusion to the human thought process" C.A.S.T.I.E.L. said. Dean giggled.
"Yeah well you might as well stop now, because I can guarantee that you'll never find a logical reason to why humans do anything" Dean said. C.A.S.T.I.E.L. looked at him weirdly.
"I suppose you gentlemen know why I am here. I have been assigned to this station to see if androids are a viable species that can co-exist in a normal society. My creators wanted me to inhabit Earth or an actual planet, but I insisted that I be placed on a space station because I have taken an interest in space engineering. I have downloaded all of the knowledge I believe vital to performing an engineering job without making mistakes. I hope that me being an inorganic being does not disrupt your daily routine" C.A.S.T.I.E.L. told the three men. They all shrugged.
"Cas we work with machines everyday. We've got no problem working with you" Benny said. The other two nodded in agreement.
"Ok so listen up Cas. We three are the head honchos of the engineering department. Everything that has to do with the engineering department comes throught us. Sometimes we get stuff sent to us that our minions can't handle. This happens a lot so you'll be expected to help with that. Your also going to be handling most of our circuitry work since the rest of us hate it and your probably very meticulous. We currently have the department staff split into thirds, but we are changing that to include you. You will be assigned one fourth of the department staff to keep in check. If one of your people messes up or does something stupid you have to deal with them. Same thing got for when they do something right, then you get to gloat about how awesome your people are. That's pretty much all your gonna be doing around here" Dean said as he listed off C.A.S.T.I.E.L.'s duties.
"I should also warn you that some of the minions don't exactly agree with management making you one of the heads of this department. If anyone gives you any crap for that just tell us and we'll punch them in the face" Dean told him. C.A.S.T.I.E.L. nodded.
"Great, then you should be all set" Dean said. Dean began to turn to leave C.A.S.T.I.E.L alone when C.A.S.T.I.E.L. said something.
"I think I am going to enjoy my life here" He said to Dean. Dean smiled at him.
"I think we're gonna enjoy it too"
