Hello again, Mister Unimportant.

[proudlywehailed]

I see I made an impression.

[mucked]

You'd be foolish to think you hadn't. And something tells me you're not a fool.

[ gut. instinct. hunches. something like that. ]

[proudlywehailed]

Sometimes I wonder, here. Is your ship damaged much?

[mucked]

I was told we hadn't any...shields. Things could be better. [ a pause. ] But they could also be worse.

[proudlywehailed]

No engineer, then. I'd offer mine, but apparently he took some processor damage himself.

[mucked]

-- Processor damage?

[ never mind the absurdity of offering another person at the drop of a hat. ]

[proudlywehailed]

He's a machine. Sweet guy, though. Shame your ship doesn't have one.

[mucked]

[ she thinks about her conversation with barnes.

and, on a leap of faith and estimation: ] Is he an...android?

[ thank goodness she texts the word and isn't forced to mouth its clumsiness. ]

[proudlywehailed]

To my knowledge, yes. Something a lot more emotionally intelligent than your standard computer.

[mucked]

'Computer' -- I'll never get used to that, I don't think.

[ during the war, computers were people. young bright women good with their sums. ]

[proudlywehailed]

Times change, Ms. Carter. The world is barely recognizable anymore.

[mucked]

Forget the world. We're in a whole bloody different star system. Every last atom is different.
