That's the best you can do. My memory code knew a little bit about human mentalities but uh... the species that built mimic bots didn't. So I'm kind of confused about how humans work.

The number of people that have given up because learning a new skill's hard and takes time.

You threw the book across the room.

That's a very 'giving up' kind of gesture.

Mmm.

Well, I'm convinced.

Most likely. But I don't really know if I'll be needing it.

Except to destroy you, maybe. Technically speaking mimic bots are supposed to try and kill their trainee whenever they fight.

But Xenos turned that function off.

My name wouldn't really mean anything to you.

But I'm a vigilante. Part-time.

Unofficial.

Superheroics...

I hate to drop bombs like that on you, but generic code's all about giving out information that's important for the trainee to know.

"N-No, it's fine... It'd be better for me to know that..."

-She would rather know that it's intended to kill her (or at least would be if that part of the programming hadn't been turned off) than to be led into a false sense of security.-

-...Huh. Puts Xenos admitting everything up front into a new light.-

It's what the species that built me is like.

They want their warriors to know how to survive, so they make the training as bad as the field work in terms of mortality rates. I still have that info up in my head.

Or at least... the up to date info from... ten years ago.

I suppose it is.

It's not exactly glamorous but it's work I want to do.

And wish I was doing but, you can't help being stranded in a place like this...

Bears don't break the law.

It'd be animal abuse to just go out and beat up some bears.

Yes, but there's some animals you aren't supposed to shoot.

Either way, I don't think bears are covered beneath British Law... because there are no bears on the British Isles.

None since 1000 AD.

Also sometimes you have to deal with the whole "is it your property" thing.

Especially with foxes.

You have to prove that it was a danger to local wild life and...

I don't know why I know rural law so well, considering I do urban cases, but I read up on the law in general when I got into this career.

It's the law.

It exists for a reason...

Mostly so that jumped up country gentlemen can't torture living creatures by having their hunting dogs tear them apart for sport.

Or y'know- preserve wildlife populations?

We don't want to kill off the deer because every jacked up guy with a weapon wants venison tonight.
