I apologize.

[And that's it. She won't reply.]

KOS-MOS...

[Sorry Shion, avoiding you and everyone else while she tries to figure out what this feeling is.

Spoiler: it's guilt.]

You just think you can say 'I apologize' without an explanation and think that's okay?

I know you were responding to KOS-MOS, but my name is Shion Uzuki, and it's actually my fault that this happened. Please don't blame KOS-MOS. I know there probably isn't, but if there's anything I can do to try to make it up to you, please let me know. I really am very sorry about this.

I just want to know why it happened.

... I'm not even that angry. Just confused.

Maybe a little angry but not that much.

KOS-MOS needs a lot of sensitive equipment for maintenance and recharging, which was not brought to the tower with her. I attempted to rebuild some of those things with parts I gathered from the tower, but it gave her a virus that caused her to systems to perceive every life form as a threat. That is why she attacked.

Oh.

You didn't give her the virus on purpose. So it's not your fault. She was being controlled by the virus. So it's not her fault.

So it's okay.

[It's not but shh.]

I'm still very sorry. I'm going to make sure nothing like this happens again.

[Hopefully...]

That'd probably be best.

But I'm okay. You don't have to apologize.

So, who's fuck up was this?

I've a burning desire to turn that robot into scrap metal so I'd suggest you own up.

I already took care of that. Leave her be.

[She was hoping to avoid a situation like this. Especially after having to fix the damage Allen did to KOS-MOS...]

I'm afraid it wasn't KOS-MOS's fault, it was mine. So please don't take it out on her. I will do whatever I can to try to make it up to anyone she hurt.

Spoil-sport.

Am I supposed to care? It's stupid to want revenge on someone who wasn't in control of herself.

Hurt? Are you kidding?

[More like destroyed not only him, but the one place of sanctuary he's managed to glean from this hell. There is no way he's going to be able to hit the gym until he can block out the ghost-smell of his own death from that floor.

...he hates failure.]

I'll take it out on whatever I need to. I promise.

I understand that you're angry, but isn't there any way I can convince you not to harm her?

Clearly you do.

Agreed, about as stupid as defending a robot.

Aside from being self-aware, that robot is important to her creator. And her creator is important to me. Leave her alone.

She's a robot, she doesn't feel.

Though I'm not merciless. What can you do to convince me?

I'll do what I have to.

That isn't entirely true. KOS-MOS does have the capacity to feel.

But, I'm really not sure. I'm only a scientist. I could offer my knowledge and skills, but I'm not sure what use those would be. If it comes down to it, you can take your aggression out on me, since it was my mistake that caused KOS-MOS's actions.

No more so an illusion than all of our current circumstances.

As for revenge, that would be too easy and fairly pointless as I'm sure you'd agree. Death bears no weight in a place where there is no finality, however painful I'd be obligated to make it.

[Scientists. Off screen Sephiroth would scowl at the screen. Always the scientists. Though maybe he could get something worthwhile out of this...]

Tell me about your field of science.

See if I care.

There's no need to hurt either of them.

Of course.
