What would you be if you called others

[Scribbles it out.]

If you look and act human, what else could you be but human?

This memory... It raised more questions than it answered. And the only one it answered was that I was skilled in combat.

That depends on how you define 'human.'

[virginwarrior]

I'm not sure it can be properly defined. Humans are always changing, aren't they?

[dwn_infinite]

You could say that. More than a lot of us do. Some would say that's a plus.

[virginwarrior]

I think it is. No really having any boundaries, the only thing stopping us is ourselves.

[dwn_infinite]

Though you don't need to be human to grow. Or show restraint. Some of us just do a good job of copying it.

[virginwarrior]

I've a lot to learn yet.

I hope it doesn't sound rude, I don't mean it as such, but what are you then?

[dwn_infinite]

It's okay, I get that a lot. You know what a 'robot' is?

[virginwarrior]

It must get tiresome, I apologize. I'm afraid I don't.

[dwn_infinite]

Machine? Droid? [A pause while he flips through some old entries.] 'Golem?'

[virginwarrior]

Golem, that's a familiar term.

He got an A+ on the turing test.

[dwn_infinite]

Like that, except I was created to look, act, and think like a human. Don't worry, it's more of a compliment that you couldn't tell.

He's amazing then~

[virginwarrior]

That's quite impressive!

[dwn_infinite]

Thanks. If I ever meet my builder I'll pass that onto him.

So that's one possible answer to your question.

[dwn_infinite]

I'm Zero, by the way. With the Adventurers. You're Lily, right?

[virginwarrior]

I certainly appreciate the answer. And it's quite insightful.

I am, yes. It's a pleasure, Zero. It was actually suggested to me that I attempt to join the Adventurers.

[dwn_infinite]

Really? Maybe I'll see you there sometime.
