Good evening! My name is Adele Cerletti, and I've recently been appointed director of Template State Psychiatric Hospital. Now, I know people immediately get wary when they hear the words "psychiatric" and "hospital" in the same sentence, but let me assure you that I have no plans to commit any of you

Don't make me laugh. Nothing you can say to us 'refugees' can make us feel better in this place. Especially when you're talking to someone who can't feel in the first place. Nice try, though, you might actually get some suckers to talk to you.

[Yea, Wei's only a little bitter he lost his job. :'D;;]

[crossestobear]

You'd be surprised. It's my job to make people feel better.

Can't feel? What do you mean by that?

[vi952]

I doubt Template can surprise me anymore.

Either way I'm a Contractor, not a human. I gave up my emotions and conscious for my contract. Have been that way for almost eleven years now.

[crossestobear]

I see.

Well, if you'd given up your consciousness, you wouldn't be talking to me at the moment, would you?

[vi952]

Not true. Contractors not having a conscious is more directed towards the human idea that there is a line between right and wrong, which is completely erased in our minds. We do something considered by humans wrong yet don't hesitate in doing so as long as the job is logical. We also don't guilt after the deed is done.

That's why most Contractors were used by the government as killing machines. Make sense now?

[crossestobear]

Ah, you mean something of a moral compass. I understand.

[vi952]

That's right. I just lack one.

[crossestobear]

You have absolutely no values whatsoever?

[vi952]

Is having no values really that hard to understand? You don't need them to live. I don't need anything like values, I only keep what is useful for my own gains.

[crossestobear]

...Mm. And do you have any history of psychological disorders?

[vi952]

Who doesn't?

[crossestobear]

I should have made myself clearer - serious psychological disorders. Conduct disorder, perhaps?

[vi952]

Contractors don't have disorders unless you count our remunerations. Those can and usually are considered obsessive-compulsive.
