[It sure is kind of odd when you actually stop to try and think about it, isn't it? Aesthetic effort this big isn't put into weapons without a reason, surely. It's almost like someone was trying to prove something...
Well, but 9S wouldn't be able to answer any of those questions himself, because he surely doesn't know either. It's just how it is--how they are--and in the end he's glad for it, too? It sets androids apart from machines, for one thing. (Or so he thinks, anyway--) And even besides that--if he couldn't feel and enjoy things, then even an experience like this one would be falling to the wayside about now? --Cheek-pinching included, yes, though--well, he could really go without that sensation, geez--!]
Hey, who are we calling a dummy here...! [Less genuine offense and more of a mild sort of complaining, at least; he makes a face, or at least--tries to, despite all the tugging. Wow!!] Look, I don't know! I guess nobody would around here, when you put it like that...but it's just really weird to think about!
[He reaches up to attempt half-heartedly grappling Kaname's hands off his face with his own. What is this, the fourth time she's messed with his face now?! He's actually almost starting to get used to it--and honestly, he doesn't actually mind it all that much normally? But of all the times for her to do it, this time's--kind of, especially awkward, since this means she's now closer and it's even harder not to look where he shouldn't....
Since maybe androids can have that kind of interest too, yes!!! Surely everybody can have a basic aesthetic appreciation for, other people, sometimes?! And it's not like Kaname isn't pretty--
Yeah, he's leaning back a little as if this is somehow going to help things (it doesn't)--and his face is definitely a fair amount warmer under her hands than it's probably been in the past. But at least this can be blamed on the hot bath too. Anyway, anyway...carrying on the conversation seems like the best way to distract himself, so!]
"Resources are limited, so don't operate beyond your cost"...Command would usually say something like that. [It's recited with a bit of a sigh.] If you're having a bath for maintenance it's recommended to take about fifteen minutes tops, or you're going to hear about it. I always sort of wondered what it'd be like to take as long as I want...I could get a little too used to this, to be honest!
