When we rescued Roger, Caster was ambushed and nearly killed by one of the high-ranking Marines. I sensed the danger and fought my way towards her - but was a second too late. Were it not for Roger's own lucky timing, she would have died because I spent too much time clashing swords.
(looks down at his hand)
If Roger wasn't there - if Caster was indeed killed... would I still be the savior that you hail me as?
(Nods, smiles.)
I think I like it, too. Very nice place... Where do you come from?
…
(Is silent a moment.)
...Yes. Yes, you would... That—that you weren't able to do that wouldn't change the fact that you saved me, and probably also saved Niko Tesla... and that you're my good friend.
...I would hate to lose Caster... I know you'd hate it too, maybe—... maybe even more... we'd—we'd have each other, at least, and we could... we could help each other, and be there for each other... I wouldn't be alone, and—and you wouldn't either...

...Dragons? You're sure this isn't Iceland? Heh...
…
...R-really...?
...Hm. You didn't strike me as particularly rustic, but—... Eheh, that's—that's almost bigoted of me, to go assuming like that. Mm... What's that like?
(full of questions, this one)

What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?…
(Nod nod.)
...Yeah, we... we did...
…
(Skitters in for a very gentle hug.)
...Thank you...
...O-oh... Eheh... I myself am from the city, so I'm more used to, ah... a more urban setting.
Hm... Dragons are nominally mythical, special emphasis on "nominally". Does your little corner of Europe just happen to be where they're all hiding?

What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?'S alright... and... thank you, for also hearing me out, kinda...
(Robots really aren't the best at hugging, but at least she's not, like, jagged.)
...Oh. Ah... That sounds dangerous.
(Nod nod.)
Heh, that is quite likely the understatement of the century.

...Well, I mean... What if you were a psycho and you were gonna do something really awful, like... murder a kid?
But then, when you're trying to, uh... stab the kid with your knife or whatever, the knife turned into... a million dollars, and the kid was super poor and... uh... had cancer? And then suddenly, you've made his family rich and solved all their problems, and you didn't even mean to. That's... wouldn't you still be a psycho, if just a really unfortunate one?
