[And that's all she says at first. If she thought she needed time to gather her thoughts for his first question, that was nothing compared to this. She's curious as to who might've told him that, but ultimately, it doesn't matter, does it? Not for helping him right now, anyways.
Although it's not like she knows how to help him here either. For as much as 9S dismissed YoRHa's creed about emotions, something like this is entirely different from what they're used to. Some androids pursued romance with each other, sure, but they weren't them. Besides, from what she saw, it rarely ever went well. Death in combat was always just a single mission away. She doesn't think they were really in a situation or environment that could hope to encourage romance.
She notes the way he cuts himself off though, and she can guess what he might've said there. Even if she did uphold the image YoRHa wanted for them, she's not sure it's a good thing, to be the way she is. All her life, she's been their perfect soldier, stoic and professional, and what did that get her? Her status as an executioner.
But that's all in the past now. It's supposed to be. Maybe they should keep that in mind.]
... YoRHa doesn't exist anymore. It's gone. Emotions aren't prohibited. [The only rules they have are the ones they've made for themselves. 9S has always embraced feelings better than she does, and she sees no reason for that not to be the same even here.] So what do you feel about it?
