Report in.

Maybe I'll decide to care.

You don't. It's just unusual that you take an interest.

My breach self was...vulnerable in a way I'm not used to. It's a strange memory to have.

[justsayyes]

Yeah, well. I'm sick of us always talking about me.

You care about being vulnerable? On the Barge?

[biocomposer]

I don't enjoy being vulnerable anywhere. But regardless, I'm simply not used to it.

[justsayyes]

What, do I need to punch you more? You're a human. And not even one who's much of a fighter.

[biocomposer]

Comparatively, I agree. However. You're referring to physical vulnerability and not, say, emotional resilience.

[justsayyes]

Whatever. Don't see what the big deal about that is.

[Even if it was kind of what she was getting at, calling her human breach self 'strong'.]

[biocomposer]

What the big deal is about non-physical forms of strength, you mean?

[justsayyes]

Not all of it, maybe. A soldier who can't handle battle is worthless. But that's not what you're talking about.

[She can't even really articulate what it is, the kind of strength of self he has. The flexibility. The ability to heal.]

[biocomposer]

I don't think it's what you were talking about, either, in reference to your other self.

[justsayyes]

She was only human. Guess she had to do things differently. Doesn't mean anything.

[She's not jealous. Or a discomfited by the idea of a version of her in that life experienced more happiness than she ever did doing what she was created for. Than she ever has doing anything.]

[biocomposer]

No?

I think you would been benefit from that kind of strength, just as I might benefit from greater physical strength.
