[ Given 9S' programming, it's only natural that he's developed a sort of unique personality to those who share his model. His curiosity and initial setup granting him insight to what he's meant to scan has made him gentle, sensitive. Perhaps it's because of his natural obsession with humans that he's grown a desire to be much like one. And perhaps that's why he's grown naturally attached to 2B. Even with her mannerisms and caution, he merely sees it as her personality. Not a designated behavior embedded into her OS. Though he supposes both work in tandem to make her her.]

[ There's something to be said about how mechanical the discussion becomes, despite the topic. And though 9S tries to maintain a similar attitude, he can't help how he struggles to get that agreement out. His face is incredibly warm, especially in realizing that they're discussing a sexual relationship as if they're speaking about a mission. The emotion-riddled 9S rubs the back of his neck, feeling rather timid despite his tone. ]

You...
Sure about this? If you don't feel the same way....
