[The feed clicks on to show David, wearing his usual gray uniform, standing near the pool table on level six. He's holding a nail and studying it a bit before he says anything, turning it over and over again in his fingers before looking up and smiling politely at the camera, in that usual polite but definitely vaguely creepy way everyone should be accustomed to at this point.]
A colleague [More or less, although he doubted Holloway thought of him as such. He had always seemed to treat him as a child, or a tool, and one usually didn't consider either such things colleagues.] of mine and I once had a conversation about how far one was willing to go to get their answers. It is my understanding that most of you are here for something less abstract, but nevertheless just as hopefully satisfactory, often at extreme personal cost and risk.
So I would like to pose the same question to you, wardens: how far are you willing to go, to get what you came all this way for? What would you be willing to do?
[Private to Erik]
[After his chat with Pietro, David really did not know how to process it. At all. And while admittedly, there are potentially better people to talk to about this, the very confused robot is turning to someone he more or less respects and probably understands how fucking weird this whole thing is.]
May I have a word with you? [He doesn't exactly sound shaken, but. He certainly sounds less cool than he usually does.]

[And he hates it. He's too human, and not human enough, and he feels like that makes him something better, but no one's ever acknowledged it.]

[And that is definitely past tense for a reason. B(]
[Private]
[Private]
Yes.

Now what do you want?
Re: [Private]
To be free.
[Private]
A sentiment I share.

[Private]
I don't know. Maybe by graduating.
[Private]
I suppose that's one way.
[Private]
They'd have us believe the only way. How are you going to achieve it?
[Private]
I don't know.
[Private]
Maybe you ought to figure that out.
[Private]
Perhaps.
