[The discovery that yet another alien enemy race is presumably human-like drives Asagi to reflection. He's looking at the bonsai tree in his room, which seems to be growing fairly well.]
...The Wulgaru use an army of obedient clones to fight. These clones don't even have the will to refuse; they can only fight, and die when they're no longer needed. The Balmarians are similar; they want humans to be their soldiers. They want someone other to fight for them.
[A pause. He draws parallels to his own situation.]
...Are they really that different from humans?

[If anything, he has more, at least by non-Unity Group standards.]
And I don't know. I know it's probably possible to leave, but I didn't dig deep enough to find out. I've always been surrounded by people telling me how important the MJP program is, and what vital role we all have. It's... very hard to even think about quitting in such conditions.

..Everything else that happens around us is so important. There is a very real chance that in a few years, mankind could be enslaved or wiped out...And, I don't...want...for much.
I get food, a place to sleep, and nobody tries to take possession of my body. Not even when they're angry...That much is fine.

[It takes Eva little while to go and fetch her sketchbook. The drawings inside are all landscapes, sketches of the areas around the various Unity Group bases late at night. They're very simple, and some have some wonky perspective and proportions. None have people in them.]

[Quick, say something more uplifting!]
It has potential. I know people who's been drawing for years, and they're not much better. If you practice, you'll probably get good soon.
