Who's more charismatic: Jules or a bot?

Right. Um. Good. I figured you and Ambrose were okay because, well, we've all seen how you two are pretty much couples goals, but I was a little worried other people could take advantage of your robottiness. So I'm glad they can't.

At this point, anyone asking or commanding that of me would certainly have to wait for a discussion with Ambrose.

Oh. Right! That makes sense, I guess.

It is probably also worth mentioning that the way the Laws of Robotics are phrased in words is a vast over-simplification, representing the complex mathematical equations and potentials that make up a positronic brain. Not all orders are equal. In addition, I was considered a valuable prototype, and my Third Law and my self-preservation was made stronger than is typical.

I realise you speak from concern and kindness. I appreciate that, Thorne, but I am not helpless.
thornsofmalkav: (concerned)

Yeah. Shit. I'm sorry that I made you feel that way, Daneel. You're one of the strongest guys I know.

[She kind of wants to hide in a robot hole now.]
thezerothlaw: (hello i am on the phone)

[Oh! No.]

You don't need to apologise, Thorne. You have not offended. Your concern was valid from your perspective, and your intentions admirable. I only wished to clarify, not correct.
thornsofmalkav: (hopeful)

Okay. But I do mean it that you're one of the strongest guys I know. Like mentally and emotionally. And one of the most fundamentally decent too. There's a reason I admire you so much. It's not just me thinking you're cute.
