[he shakes his head]
I have questions, and I have opinions. They come with this body whether I like it or not.
But I don't really interfere with the choices people make.

[she frowns.]
But... What about your choices?

Hm... I make a few choices. There are things that I get to decide, when it's in the moment.
But I mostly follow the mission, and my duty to humanity.
[so he'll never make a choice that really overrides what a group of humans want]

[thinking it over...]
I do not like that, I don't think.

[ . . . . well
he smiles a little at that, despite everything]
... that's kind of you, Vin.

[she shrugs.]
I just don't like people thinking they are not as important as others just because of who they are. It's nothing to do with kindness.

I think it still counts.
It's easy to see us as weapons, because that's what we are, and tools to reach an end. Being told that we're important is... well, nice.

It is... a low bar that you're praising me for.

... it might be higher than you think.
[people are cruel. buzen knows that. he doesn't mind being seen as a tool - it's just nice to hear that others might feel differently]
Either way, thank you.
We'll see what happens once we find whoever did this.

...I would doubt that, I think.
[people are cruel, but she still believes there should be a baseline of decency that anyone meets, even if it very often doesn't happen that way.]
You feel certain that we will find them, then?

Certain... Hm...
[ . . . . ]
I almost feel like we have no choice.
It would be worse for morale if we don't, and more dangerous.

Yes, but... Both of those are true, but they don't mean we'll succeed.

They don't.
But the desperation provides considerable incentive.
We can always prepare for what'd happen if we don't find them.

That's true...
[but her pessimism]
Do you think they would hurt someone again, were we not to find them?

[buzen nods]
There's no reason to think that they'd stop, if something has ahold of them and we don't know how to remove it.
