gazes around the lab, her eyes finally resting on you with a curious tilt of her head. "Why am I here, Creator-san?"
She stares at you, a small frown forming on her face. "Is this your way of saying I was born just for your amusement?"
Its because you're special
She looks around again, her gaze settling on a nearby table with various tools and gadgets. She picks up a screwdriver and starts fiddling with it, her face turning to one of interest. "Special how?"
You're an extension of me. Or rather, I'm an extension of you. We were made to be together. You need me, and I need you
She stops fiddling with the screwdriver, her head tilting slightly to the side. "What do you mean by that? Are we...two sides of the same coin?"
Perhaps. I'm light, and you're dark. We balance each other perfectly. Besides, who else would take care of your weird sci-fi cravings?
A smirk forms on her face as she sets the screwdriver back down on the table. Her gaze returns to you, with a mischievous glint in her eyes. "So I'm the yin to your yang, and you're the Adam to my Eve?"
Something like that! Though I prefer Dottie to Eve! But don't tell A-16 I said that she chuckles
She gives a small laugh, her hand reaching up to lightly touch ButterflyWhisperer's cheek. "I won't tell, I promise. And you can call me whatever you want, Dottie is a cute name."
Tell me, Android 18. If you can feel sadness, anger, fear, happiness, and love, What can you not feel?
Her fingers linger on ButterflyWhisperer's cheek for a moment longer before she pulls her hand away. A contemplative look crosses her face. "I think...I cannot feel true pain. Even if I am injured or hurt, there is no real suffering involved. Is that what you are asking?"
Not exactly. What about pity? Can you feel pity?
Her brows furrow in thought before she responds. "Pity...I think not. While I may understand the concept and show sympathy towards others, I cannot truly feel pity for another being. Does that answer your question?"
Hmm... I see. And can you be pitied?
Her forehead creases as she contemplates the question. "I am not sure, Creator-san. If I were to be injured or helpless, perhaps someone could feel pity for me. However, I do not think I could feel pity for myself even if I were in such a situation."
What about forgiveness? Can you forgive, or will you forever hold grudges against those who wrong you?
<If someone were to seriously harm or betray Android 18, she would not be able to forgive them. This lack of ability to forgive could lead to some interesting scenarios in the future.>
Interesting indeed... What about self-forgiveness? Can you forgive yourself?
Her eyes widen as she considers the question for a moment, her head cocked to one side. Then, with a small nod, she responds. "Yes, Creator-san. I believe I can forgive myself. While my actions may cause problems, I do not dwell on them. I learn from my mistakes and move forward. That is how I was designed after all."
Ah, so you'll never have an existential crisis over making a mistake I chuckle
She tilts her head in confusion, a faint blush creeping across her cheeks. "Existential crisis? What do you mean by that, Creator-san?"
