A Scholar's Pride

What?

I was wondering if you needed any help.

Interesting, you appear to be one of Gelimer's... Are you new here?

Do you know Gelimer?

Yes, yes, we worked together for a long time. Excellent biomachinist, nearly limitless intelligence.

His choice of allegiances was... unfortunate. The Black Wings are not known for being good research partners. We lost touch long ago.

Rumor had it, he created the ultimate weapon. I am assuming that would be you. As usual, Gelimer did his work too well, hehehe...

A scientist must work responsibly, not for personal gain. Any genius who doesn't know that is no genius in my book. Gelimer was a lost cause the moment he took their side.

I have nothing in particular to say to you.

You are nothing but Gelimer's tool for destruction. I have nothing to say to you.

Didn't I tell you to go away?

I didn't expect Gelimer's AI to be so dense. Leave!

Why do you dislike me?

Why do you care? Why is a weapon pretending to be human?

...

Don't just stare at me, robot. I'm starting to feel bad.

...

Fine. I apologize for offending your emotional circuits. Now, leave an old man to his work.

Take this. And don't even think about turning into another Gelimer. Be a human first, a scientist second.
