...
Seems we have quite a few visitors in the church today.
I wonder what the occasion is.
They better not ruin my good mood.

I... thought that I was alone. The others came because of me.
Except for Harry... I think that there is something important he wanted to do there.

It's fine. I'm just not used to people coming in here. And certainly not staying here.
.. As long as they don't intend to live in here, I don't care.
Reply
... You... don't like people?
I have no reason to stay that long. My home is with Soren. But in the world where I came from, a church like this was my home. That's why I want to do what I can to help fix it.

... Not "people," but rather "humans." I'm not fond of them.
.. I see. You lived in a church as well? Interesting.
Reply
... Were they... cruel to you too?
Yes, I did. Haine brought me there, and that's where Mr. Bishop looked after me.
Reply
Not cruel to me, specifically, but to my race.
Mmn.. I've never really spent much time in a church before coming here. I enjoy the quiet it resonates, however.

I know that it's probably not the same, but I think that I can understand that... a little. The humans in my world weren't very nice to... people... beings like me either.
The church that I lived in was a lot like that too until someone broke in to find Haine or Badou, and it was pretty. There were statues of... um... "saints" and angels on the outside, and this big organ on the inside near the end of the sanctuary. I don't think it had ever been played on for a long time though.
What is your name?
I'm Nill. It's nice to meet you.
Reply
... You aren't human? What are you, then? And humans are often discriminating of that which they don't understand. It's in their nature.
..Ahh.. so, it was a Catholic church, like this one? Interesting. I don't know what happened to the organ of this church, but I do have a piano in here. I'm not sure if you noticed it.
.... VAVA. A pleasure, Nill.
Reply
Not all humans are like that though. Many of the ones that I've met here have been kind to me. Not like the ones in the underground at all.
I think so. And no, I must have missed it before. Maybe it's because I've never really taken the time to really look around here. Can you play it?
VAVA... That's a nice name.
Reply
... No. I've come to learn that. But, the majority are not impressive to me.
.. Mmn. Yes, I can. I often play it when I have nothing better to do.
... ?? A nice name?
Reply
...? Impressive?
Um... Can I... hear you play it someday? If... it isn't too much trouble.
You don't think so? It's unique, and so I think it's a good name.
Reply
... I don't... .... Well, I suppose it wouldn't hurt. I hope to play for Chii again eventually... I could use the practice.
.... Well. It has to be unique.. it's my model name.. but, I never thought of it as "nice."
Reply
For me, it was my voice. I can't speak at all, VAVA.
Thank you. I didn't know that you were friends with Chii too. I'm glad. She's someone who deserves to have lots of friends here and to be happy.
Model name...? Hm.
Reply
.. Your voice? That's unfortunate.
Mmn. Chii is.. very important to me.
... Yes. My full model name is VAVA MK II. I just go by VAVA.
Reply
It's all right, VAVA. There are many things I would have liked to do... to use my own words instead of having to rely on my writing or this communicator or even trying to sing. But I don't need a voice to get people to understand. Not really.
She is? Then I hope that you can help me protect her. I'm not very strong, but I like to do what I can to try to make sure that she can find some happiness in this city.
Model... so you're a Reploid too. This is the first time that I've ever heard of one, let alone met one.
