You had it done willingly?

[ it's hard to imagine, and it shows on her face a little. ]

... The similarities probably begin and end at physical, then.

[robopriest]

...This isn't the first time that someone's told me something like that.

[His face falls into something more neutral, but there's a slight furrowing of his eyebrows. And of course, that answers implies...]

Just because the only similarities might be physical doesn't mean that we can't meet on a further level. I'm willing to listen, but I won't pry. Your body is your own. Mine is my own. We went through different experiences, bad and good. Sometimes it's just nice to have someone around that at least looks like you, I think.

[bisouled]

It is. Don't get me wrong, I'm grateful you shared this with me, especially if you wanted to keep it a secret. That was really kind of you. It's just...

[ fiora laces her fingers together, anxious. She's not sure how to put this. ]

... It's complicated. For a lot of reasons. [ a small, apologetic sigh; she offers one of those reasons, just because she feels like he's offering her a lot already. ] It's hard to feel camaraderie when this body hardly feels like me anymore.

[robopriest]

[He nods. He understands it, in a way.]

One man's blessing is another's curse. I get it. [He lets out a low sigh of his own.] Anyways...I'm just glad to get to know you, nevertheless. You seem to be a sweet girl. Body or not, that doesn't change that.

[ Fiora offers a chagrined smile. ]

Flattery will get you nowhere, mister. [ but she shakes her head. ] Sorry, it's not like me to get down - I'm doing just fine. I'm basically used to it already. Besides, it does have some good points.

[ a beat. actually... ]

That reminds me - has your body been working normally? I'm missing some functionality that I usually have.

[robopriest]

Hey, its not flattery if its sincere, you know. Quite the opposite of flattery.

[And that...is a good question. He twists his mouth in a frown, glancing to the ground for a moment.]

Its working fine, but...some of the things installed aren't accessible. I can imagine its the fault of our favorite Realm.

[bisouled]

So it's not just me. At first, I thought I knocked something loose when I jumped at that barrier... I'm glad I was wrong.

[ the last thing she needs to do is go falling apart prematurely. ]

My radar and drones are completely offline. That on top of me missing one of my knives. If someone tries to come after me next, I won't be able to fight as well as I usually can.

[robopriest]

That's terrible. I mean, I guess you can fight with one, but...you're still in a vulnerable position.

[Fiora, please keep yourself safe....]
