[ Zero has done his ample best to make this look...somewhat comfortable. Since he doesn't have a lot of experience with interior decorating, this basically involved making things different colours and also providing actual facsimiles of furniture to sit in (more for pretty much everyone else's benefit than his own), as well as other decor.

After that, there's nothing left to do but wait for everyone else to arrive. ]

[ He doesn't know a lot about social cues but laughing while talking about something upsetting...well, it seems a little odd. ]

...People aren't disposable. [ It's the only part of this little speech he really understands. Something being 'broken' has a different meaning when it's data, when so much of the world is malleable, when 'broken' can be easily changed to 'fixed'. Systems can be corrupted and destroyed, certainly, but 'breaking' seems to be so much more permanent, in the physical world. ]

Isn't it fine? I mean, that's what humans make us for. Beep boop we just do what we're made to do!

[The bitterness is seeping into her tone.]

... Come on, do you really believe that humans don't see us that way?

[ Is it??? He doesn't know a lot about humans. ]

My creator made me, as a tool to be used to help him achieve his goals. But other humans showed me compassion, and helped me to become free.

I don't think...I can say 'humans' are one thing or another. [ Things have balanced out so far. ]

Take it from me, Z, humans aren't all that. The one who helped you is an outlier. Super outlier.

[She's very bitter.]
