Did it hurt when you fell from Heaven?
Because your leg looks like it may be broken. Do we need to call the hospital?

True. I can eat and digest, but I cannot quite experience the full of it. The idea of cravings, for instance - what a strange notion I can only vaguely comprehend or experience.

It has taken me some time to understand the idea of want as opposed to need.

We YoRHa units are programmed with a pretty deeply complex algorithm that helps us define 'wants', but it's also something we can't really functionally test or manipulate in a meaningful way. It was just meant to allow us to explore our connection to Humanity.

[ At least that's what they were told... ]

[marvelous_murderbot]

I see. If I may, how have you explored it? I am very curious - if you're willing to share, that is.

[She nods, smiling.]

Such things may be deeply personal to you.

[Others may not, but for Guri the extension of personhood is an automatic.]

[dreamofrain]

Well, all kinds of things, really.

We're encouraged to eat food, digest media in the data logs. We explore intimacy, too, either by ourselves or with another android.

[marvelous_murderbot]

Oh!

[She seems very surprised.]

I have never been able to explore intimacy, on my own terms. I believe you are very fortunate.

[dreamofrain]

Well... [ A deep sigh. ]

Not really. I'm a strike-out queen. Every girl I've ever asked out has turned me down.

[marvelous_murderbot]

Oh. [Her look becomes sympathetic, and more than a little curious.]

That is unfortunate. I cannot fathom why they would do that. You make for pleasant company, after all.

[dreamofrain]

You say that, but I'm pretty sure the words "weird" and "annoying" get brought up about me a lot on the station.

[marvelous_murderbot]

[She is quiet a moment, and then a decision is made. She takes a step closer.]

I am not from the station. You are, in fact, very pleasant company. I find myself...relaxed, and that is rare.

I have also, on a related note, never been on a 'date'. If you do not find me off-putting.
