Taking care of yourself

[jianai]

I'm really not - I cannot meet, talk to Evaa like this. Sorry.

[Post-mission, Ren seems weird. Their speech pattern is rambling and slurred, and the horned person sways rather than standing still. In other words, sedated or high on painkillers.]

Still all, all things considered, it wasn't too terrible, right?

Wwe saved almost everyone. Only Unity Group could responsed so quick. Ah. Sorry. Can you help with this?

[Also, Ren's TSF fortified suit (male version) is partially removed, for ease of application of some kind of healing balm they hold in hand... before trying to hand it over to you, that is.]

Here, here. If it's alright. I have bad reach.

[Ren tries to point at their back.]

Y-yes, yes! This is a lot, thanks. Helping a lot.

[Ren stretches and tries to relax. While still maintaining a standing position of course, we don't want an Elma-pancake.]

You are always helping so much. Say Elma, you think it's programming or freewill?

You know... I've actually thought about that some times whenever I'm really bored and nobody in Team Jelba needed me to do anything. And I've read through a whole bunch of philosophical articles online about free will too.

Of course, I'm only an AI and that complicates things. But Selena told me once that if making a subot was just programming, there'd be more of us made.

[jianai]

Technically I am an AI too. Jus... biological.

But what differeence does that make? I wonder.

[prismphantom]

It's most certainly a nuanced and complicated issue! So... maybe we could continue it some time when your thoughts are more coherent?

[A beat.]

Not that I wouldn't enjoy the discussion, of course!

[jianai]

No, no, it's alll-right.

My everything. It feels funny. Better than art... other option, I guess.
