Roof (108)
-Aichi's on the roof, looking through his deck.-
-...-
-...-
-...The thought of death weighs heavily on his mind... After the discussion with Ray, he realizes just what it would mean to cease to exist.-
-To lose everything...-
-...He... will die one day too, won't he...? It happens to everyone...-
-...-
-...Aichi doesn't want to die...-
-Of course, there's no trace of this serious subject going through his mind visible on his face.-
-He's just as blank and emotionless-seeming as usual...-
Roof (108)
-Aichi snaps out of his thoughts when he hears Isabela speak to him.-
-He looks up, still blank.-
"You do not need to apologize."
-After he says that, he finds himself realizing that there is something else that differentiates him from others (More things occur to him as he goes along, it seems...)...-
-...Other people use contractions. 'It's', 'who's', 'I'm', 'what's'... Those types of words.-
-Isabela used 'didn't'... and honestly, Aichi hadn't really considered trying to speak like that before. For some reason or other it finally clicked for him that he doesn't.-
-Aichi understands how contractions work, but he was always told to speak precisely and clearly. He never went against what he was taught, ordered, and told in that regard.-
-...Maybe... he should try as well...? To actually use contractions?-
"...I do—n't mind."
-...The way he said that was a tad odd, Isabela. Like he had to force himself to say 'don't'.-

"...No, it is—n't."
-It actually isn't. He's first and foremost Japanese, but he does know English as well (among other languages).-
"I—'m not used to speaking like this."
-He mainly uses English while here since it seems like a lot of people speak English (Leos and Sthesia for example). He mostly switches between Japanese and English, and his Japanese is as stilted as can be.-
-...He's going to figure out how to work on that as well.-
"It is difficult."
-...Seems like he's really going to have to work on this.-
-However, Isabela may notice that his tone seems almost... empty. Not quite, as it's clear he's struggling with the language thing, but it's clear this child isn't exactly... normal.-

Isabela: Hmm, you don't have to speak like that if you don't want to. The most important thing is whether I understand what you're talking about, right?

-Yeah, that's true...-
-...But at the same time he wants to be more human... and it seems like most normal humans speak like this.-
"Thank you, but I want to speak like this."
-After all...-
"Other people speak this way, and I want to be human."
-...He wants to be 'more human'?-

Main Room (Aichi)
-Aichi goes to open the door, aiming to go to finally the mall, but...-
-...? There's someone out there...-
"O-Oh, I'm sorry... I, um... didn't mean to stand in your way."
-He moves to the side, aiming to let the new guy walk in.-

Sayaka: Uh...preeety sure this ain't a simulation... (walks out of the Kitchen with intent to open the front door, but stops after two steps when Aichi did the job for her)

Isabela: "Human"? Are you saying you're not?

"We all fail. We all make mistakes. That is what makes us human."Roof (108)
"...I—'m artificial."
-He has been aware of this his entire life. For as far back as he can remember, he has always known that he's not a 'real' human.-
-He's...-
-...A tool...-
"...I want to be like a non-artificial human."
-...Isabela can tell that there's a small look of... is that sadness on his face?-
-He wishes he was actually human. He wants to be a real human, and not a tool.-

Main Room (Aichi)
-...? Chat site...? Virus...?-
"We're, um... not on a chat site..."
-...Is he new here? He seems to think this is a website...?-
"This is, um..."
-...OK, Sayaka at least explained that this is the real world.-
-Well, Aichi doesn't find him suspicious for saying he's not a virus...-
"I-I think he was just trying to clarify that he wasn't one..."
I-I’m not suspicious at all, I swear!
... Wait.
Real world? Not a chat site?
... Naaah, couldn’t be. You guys are pulling my leg, right? I get it, mess around with the Net Navi cause he got lost and somehow jumped into your chat.
-The robot places his hands on his hips-
Well I’m not falling for it! How can I even exist in the real world when I don’t even have a body?

DeerMain Room/Outside/Wherever (Aichi)
-...?-
"...'Net... Navi'?"
-It's clear by the expression on Aichi's face that he has no idea what a Net Navi is.-
"I-It's true though... This place isn't the internet."
-...Or is it? What if this place was all like an internet simulation or something?-
-...But wait, how would he have gotten here then? Where would his body be?-
-After all, he was about to go against Ren...-
-...No, it can't be a simulation... It'd make absolutely no sense unless Aichi's world was already a simulation or the internet.-
-Man, what was Aichi thinking?-
-He gets a sheepish expression on his face as he realizes his silliness.-
-He then looks over to Sayaka.-
"M-Maybe he expected us to be worried about it..."
-Who knows how his world is in comparison to theirs?-
-...Oh, Leos is here!-
"Leos! I didn't see you..."
-He then looks back over to the Net Navi.-
"T-This isn't the internet, so..."
-...Maybe that's why he can't pull it up...?-

Roof (108)
-...Honestly... he's not entirely sure who they are. He never thought to question it before...-
"...I do—n't know their names. I only know them as my superiors."
-...Or, well... The scientists assigned by his superiors.-
Edited by CrystalMemoria on Nov 9th 2018 at 12:23:07 PM
Wait? How do you guys not know what a Net Navi is? Don’t they teach humans that in elementary school? You have your PET, right?
-Okay, now it’s time to grow concerned. Your User hasn’t told you anything yet. There’s no data to gleam info from either...-
You... you guys are still messing with me, I know it!
-Sayaka, you might’ve struck a nerve with the kid robot-
And I’m not broken! I’m... I’m functioning perfectly! A-and I’m not a little thing! My name’s Kung Foo Kid!

DeerSayaka: (L) Odd that what?
(NN) Agh, sorry sorry - didn't mean to set you off. It's just...you're definitely not in your home universe any more. Don't think any of us here knows what a PET is, unless you're talking about recycling plastic bottles.
