AVA looked back down at the gun in her hand, as she listened to her creator explain on the reason she shouldn't hold onto such an object. As much as she found it logical, as much as she had wanted to agree, the android wasn't quite sure if the decision to get rid of it would help their case. As far as she knew, they were bound to be hunted and tracked down, so they had to at least protect themselves with a weapon. But then, AVA looked back at all of the times that she found herself to be capable -- by just using her physical attributes alone. She thought this over the whole time of looking at the gun in her hand....perhaps Sophie was right. 

The only time she had ever broke eye contact with the item, was the moment of giving Sophie that much-needed coverage. "My pleasure", the android replied back to her in her usual neutral but eloquent voice, before looking to the ground, once more, until she heard her human guardian reassure, seemingly promising, AVA that they will find a safe passage that would get them out of this, alive. "I know that I am innocent, and yet I know that the answers we seek are hidden from certain eyes. The question is, where do we begin to find those things?", the question replayed itself within her own mind, and by going through her own memory, there wasn't really a lead; not to her, at least. 

What broke her out of her concentration, was the fact that Sophie gestured to the armed gun, once more. AVA looked back up, to see the other woman's face, and then, her hand. Her blue eyes looked down once more to her own hand, she reluctantly lifted it, and carefully handed it over to her. The physical sensation of having to brush her synthetic skin with organic was quite confusing sometimes, and AVA wondered what it would like to possess such biology. The humans confused her sometimes, but that was why Sophie was there. She was her first contact with such a species; in a way, to blend in with them, her creator and "lab assistant" became the teachers, her friends, her guardians...and her family. So far, with them being around, AVA remained stable and informed. 

For probably the umpteenth time, the android once again scanned Sophie's face, having to map every corner, and commit the image to memory. It was really a strange feeling whenever she was near the human woman. Even AVA herself found this rather confusing.
