<Snipped quote by Artifact>

You didn’t. I am what I am, and I don’t have a problem with that. But people can get mean if they want to and sling malicious things my way. Most commonly in the form of name calling, as you could imagine after our talk about originality. I’ve been called things like bucket-head a lot.

@Revolutionary

That's just a rude thing to say to anyone.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

I’m an android. Physically. But I am a person. I have humanity.

@Revolutionary

What do they do that makes you feel like they only care about the android part?
*Taps my fingers together*
Oh! I hope I didn't make you upset by asking questions earlier!

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

As long as they’re not mean about it. I’m fine with a machine being what I am, but I resent it being my identity. If that makes sense.

@Revolutionary

That part's interesting. Kat the person isn't tied to Kat the machine?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

Oh yeah. But I kind of just take it at this point. The people who make those jokes, it’s a novelty to them even if it’s lost its luster for me. So they can have it.

@Revolutionary

That takes some otherworldly patience. Credit to you.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

It’s well beyond the idea of originality for me at this point. The number of machine-jokes hurled my way, let me tell you.

@Revolutionary

You get it. And without putting any effort into it.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*Tilts my head*
Oh. Is that a hot-button topic for you?

@Revolutionary

No, you're fine. You'll just need to be clever to come up with one that's new to me.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

Careful. Don’t turn that water into steam.

@Revolutionary

*Winces without otherwise changing my expression and drops the idea*
You and Rhoan may be more similar than I thought.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

Also a mild joke. I have no expectations for talking to work, and that would put more people in danger than necessary.

@Revolutionary

I'm curious now! How that could work...

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

Maybe with all of your diplomatic powers combined, you could talk King out of being evil.

@Revolutionary

*Looks up, giving the idea serious thought*
I guess we could... we would have to... Mmmm, difficult. Not impossible, but killing him is probably faster.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

That’s, well, absolutely fair. Still, all that means is just that you’re not the absolute most prodigious.
*Laughs*
That’s far from bad.

@Revolutionary

*Flashes a full-width smile at the thought*
Yeah, I work with an incredible team. They deserve the props they get.
