[b]It would claw and claw at the protective wall for a second, but eventually would go back to Theodynn. A helmet had appeared on his face, no visor able to be seen. He would stick the knife into the lizard’s stomach as it lunged, and would try to pull it out to no avail.[/b]

“I make eight-thousand dollars per day on a bad day. You’ll probably find no better pay.”
-
"Yeah, but that's you. And you love money. I won't be getting paid that."
-
“You’ll be getting paid our agreed amount. One third. Plus you’re forgetting bonuses if you do a good job.”
-
"Bonuses? Huh. I'll try it, but anymore terrible...horrible things and I seek out Nat."
-
“Hey, upside is that you get to spend a little more time with Rian during work.”
-
"That's true." Silver nodded. "I can keep her company more."
-
“She really needs it. She always bothers me about me getting in trouble, will be good to get her off my back.”
-
"Maybe you could be nicer to her..." Silver mumbled, walking.
-
“She’s a robot. Not like she has actual feelings. Just lines of code.”
-
"Oh f*ck off. She's sentient. She has feelings."
-
“You don’t get it. I coded her. She doesn’t have sentience. It’s not part of her code.”
-
"But...I could've....Then why not just change the code?"
-
“Because she seems to be trying to develop free will and I don’t want to ruin it.”
-
"So she is alive? I'm confused..."
-
“She’s alive, yes, but not sentience. But she’s developing it.”
-
"O-Oh, okay. That's different, I guess?"
-
“Very much so. She doesn’t know that she is alive.”
-
"Huh. I might try to help her then..."
-
“Go right ahead. You’ll be paying for her in a while anyways.”
-
"Then she'll actually be free. Free from your anger issues and stupidity."
-
“Stupidity? Girl, if you think I’m stupid you’ve got another thing coming. Let’s take earlier, for example, when I was saving you. That took careful word choice to try to intimidate them, and a lot of bluffing.”
-
"Bluffing that could've easily backfired if they weren't in a place where gods walk around."
-
“Exactly. I knew my surroundings. I’m a bounty hunter, half my job is getting to know the area around my target. That included Dojoville.”
-
"Takes ten seconds to notice you can get away with that, but okay."
