"I could recite the report word by word, but that is-" Connor snapped his mouth shut. Because he had been about to say callous. But Markus is a machine and he shouldn't be worried about being callous at a machine. The machine doesn't have emotions to really be upset.

Even if you were eventually a gift for a domestic setting, it wouldn't be unbelievable that some of my features were tested on you.

That is the beauty of RPland, give these characters the emotional journey they deserve
