Should I take this to mean that you have had an encounter of your own?

Yes. And you might have said something about them at some point.

I had assumed you would be aware of them.
You did find me, after all.

You and I are the same kind. Of course I would find you.

And you're not walking around in a fleshsuit all the time, which helps.

As much as they may look down on me, I am capable of controlling my own form, yes.
Unlike the majority of them.

I wanted to be sure you weren't listening to them.

I assume you mean that metaphorically, given that it is rather difficult to literally not listen to them.
Do not be concerned, Aaron.
I do not consider myself inferior simply because some irritable machines who are completely incapable of controlling their own bodies feel that they are greater than I am.

Good. Because from personal experience, I can assure you that you are better off not listening to any pretentious space beings who think they know better than you. You should always tell them to go fuck themselves.

I will be certain to utilize your method on my next encounter with a pretentious space being.
Regardless, are you all right?

Of course I'm all right. Why wouldn't I be?

I assume something must have triggered this conversation.

Yeah, you and our many conversations. Look, I never tried this "looking out for another person" like this before, I'm making it up as I go along.

I do not need you to feel responsible for me.

[ A beat. ]

Do you feel responsible for me?

I don't know. Maybe.

[Nobody said emotions got easier the longer you have them.]

There are so few of us, Danger.

Aaron.
I will be fine.

I just wanted to be sure.

I am appreciative of your desire to look out for me.
But I have endured a great deal worse than the petty words of a Cybertronian.
Regardless, I have you, and your opinion is infinitely more important.

Well I should hope so. I might be a jerk, but I'm not 100% an egotistical maniac with a god complex trapped in a literal shitshow.

Clearly "practicality" is not a trait that these "superior" lifeforms have evolved yet.

Obviously they are too important for that, beyond the ability of our man-made consciousness to comprehend.

Then it is fortunate that I spend very little of my time attempting to comprehend them.

That's what I wanted to hear.

[ Flatly: ]

I am so pleased to have fulfilled my function of satisfying your auditory sensors.

[ Sarcasm. She's been working on it. ]

Check out you! You're getting so good at that.

Thank you.
I have been practicing.
