No matter what, you’re wrong about that. I know why you feel anger toward them, but what happened to you, doesn’t invalidate them.
Melody is a straightjacket program, not an individual. It does not deserve my soul.

It doesn’t. Regardless of how she sees Melody, or what she thinks of you, Data still did experiment with souls, we know that. And Melody told us why she was having an identity crisis, and it matches up like a jigsaw puzzle with what she’s saying happened to her. You think that’s coincidence? This sucks. This all really, really sucks, and I don’t want it to be true as much as you do. But we’re never going to fix anything if we turn a blind eye to the things that hurt.

<Snipped quote by Meta>
I don’t think I can aid in this conversation.
<Snipped quote by Meta>
… We can figure something out. My- my Dad has an ability involving souls…
<Snipped quote by Meta>
“For a while”?
<Snipped quote by Server>
Your mom is still your mom, no matter what she thinks about what happened to her. And you are still you. But despite opinions formed by experience, I can’t imagine any lies about the events she describes specifically.
<Snipped quote by Meta>
And you won’t continue to lord it over our heads after this would be done? You’d stick to your word?
<Snipped quote by Meta>
How do I really know you can actually do it?
<Snipped quote by Meta>
Mm…
<Snipped quote by Server>
That’s a bold thing to say. You think any of Data’s enemies have been tracking specifically our endeavors here in your home and waited until we were close to figuring out everything to step in? Seems like an odd thing for someone to do.
<Snipped quote by Server>
Why wouldn’t I?
<Snipped quote by Meta>
Groundwork set for expectations. I have to know, what were we going to find if we ignored you and followed the program’s beam?
*Points up*
<Snipped quote by Meta>
Reasonable. Just not what I expected.
<Snipped quote by Meta>
Nothing inherently wrong with it. For such an important thing, though, I imagined you’d be a lot more concerned with permanence.
