[ It's such a small, strange gesture, watching 9S get dressed all over again. With the way that the both of them are speaking now, it almost feels as if their previous coupling had never occurred, a sudden and terrible tension gripping the room. 2B isn't concerned with appearing human, though she's been programmed to love humanity. This decision is borne of pure selfishness and she knows it, and she'd be lying if she said she didn't have any doubts.
As she watches 9S, she counts the number of myriad ways that this could go wrong. She knows that he's worth it, worth all of it, but she also knows that some prices aren't hers to pay. As he replaces his visor, she watches him in silence, quietly wishing she could imbue herself with the same resolve he demonstrates. ]
We will. [ She agrees, stepping closer to him. 2B reaches out and gently grazes the back of her knuckles against his cheek when he mentions cycles, her words catching in her throat before she speaks again. ]
You're positive? [ She asks, giving him a final out. ] Then... go ahead. Just tell me what you need me to do.
