[MUTUAL BLUBS...combined with very pleasantly warm water--it is a little harder to stay tense when these things are at play, isn't it? Man, this would definitely be a lot worse if it were happening anywhere else...though then again, would an incident like this actually happen anywhere else either?
Well--never mind that--really, even if most of it was babbling, 9S would be pretty happy to just proceed as if the last five minutes hadn't actually happened. As impossible as it is to actually willfully forget about it, though, the slight shift in topic helps too...and 9S is already perking up with visible interest.
Like, sure, that was a surprisingly thorough response, but--it's honestly kind of refreshing in its detail! Most people don't bother to answer things nearly that helpfully, you know? In his experience, anyway... 9S may also be biased about this since he pulls from the database for more trivial things half the time himself, which is basically the same thing as reading from an online search anyhow--]
Under two minutes, huh? Wow, that isn't for very long at all... [A hand emerges from the water on his end, if only so he can wave it around a little in a vague but intrigued sort of gesture.] Geez, it's no wonder you were starting to get worried, in that case! Us androids can retain air intake for about five minutes or so, I'd say? That's the average with the tests I've run on myself, anyway! And that probably varies depending on body size too, but it seems to be a pretty decent baseline. I--aha... [Ah, a second hand emerges--and now he can raise both of them in a thoroughly apologetic sort of gesture, with a sheepish smile to accompany it.] I wasn't running any tests this time around, though! I was just...er, since these baths are--really, really nice? I've never been able to soak as much as I want before! Sooo...
[Mmmmaybe he was trying to take advantage of his five minutes being underwater in this particular instance, yeah........]
