"It doesn't matter to me..." She tasted on the words. That sentence alone was the very reason she reckoned that she would never get along with this grunt. He seemed to view everything with such indifference it scared her. If she was to suffer some sort of meltdown, she imagined that he would just shrug, take out her chip and toss it into the garbage as if it was none of his business.

"I... like to talk", she said. "I am a social being. I haven't had anyone to talk to for so long. But it doesn't feel like you are appreciating it, nor taking what I have to say to you. It's demoralizing if anything. To find that the only creature you are able to communicate with for so many years never has anything to say back. It makes me feel even more alone than before. So that's why I was asking if you really had any need of me? Otherwise my request is to be put into shutdown until I am needed... or... you know... if you ever have something to say?"

That dreamless void is even better than having someone ignore you...

"Little room for doubt, comrade", she said. "A simple yes or no will suffice. I won't blame you for denying my request."
