[It hurt. Everything hurt. Existing alone ached and burned through what Labrys could only describe as her 'heart'. She'd been in a daze since dying to those shadows that whispered such horrible things--things that still echoed and bounced around in her head. Labrys heard the voices of her friends and sisters saying such cruel, hateful things and it hurt more than she could measure.]

[She wanted to forget. Forget like she'd forgotten before, when she had constructed the illusion of a human body and another life--a better life, just like any other student.]

[Exhausted, she dropped into a chair on floor ninety-six and leaned on the table in front of her, head resting on folded arms. Eventually, Labrys forgot why she'd been so tired and distraught in the first place.]

[...Then she forgot what she'd been doing the past few weeks.]

[After a while she forgot a great deal more, not the least of which being why she'd sat down in the first place. Was this not an inefficient use of time? Logic processors indicated this was not the Kirijo laboratory. Advisable course of action: find information. Standing, the robot girl somewhat stiffly walked until she encountered a terminal.]

[Her face was largely passive and expressionless, voice still holding its accent but utterly devoid of its usual life or energy.]


My sensors are indicatin' an unknown environment. Ain't sure if this is a new method of testin' capabilities. Unit number 031, requestin' and awaitin' orders.

[Oh, shit.]

[Oh boy, that's not good. Diarmuid's frown widens.]

Your heart and soul are what make you human. It's the seat of your emotions and memories--the things that make you, you. Is there nothing you are feeling right now that you don't understand or can't explain through other methods?

You may have once been built for that purpose, but that is the past. You have long since grown beyond that. One could even say evolved beyond that.

[It hurts Diarmuid to hear her talk like this since he know how hard she has fought to understand who and what she is. She is so much more than just a machine built to fight.]

I realize this might be hard for you to do right now, but can you try to look into yourself to find something that is...different from what you expect? It's not a system and it's not part of a process, yet it is still there all the same.

[If she has forgotten what her heart and soul feel like, then he needs to help her find them again. Hopefully, once she does that, it will help her regain her memories that much faster especially since he believes that memory is a part of the heart and soul and can ever fully be parted from them.]
