[She didn't seem fine, but who was he to push it? He wasn't really in a good graces with her as it stood.]
Adaptable or not... If you need anything, I'm just... right across the hall.
[Because he was adaptable due to his programming, but that didn't mean she was taking things okay. It made sense, though. She had a harder time than he did.]
[ Her face scrunches up momentarily. The room choice had been a matter of convenience initially, but now...
It's a while before she answers. ]
Thanks. [ Then, after another long pause: ] Same to you. Not that I'm sure of what I could give you.
[ Well, she had an idea, but it was hard to imagine him coming to her willingly for support. Even though they were equally deviant, she couldn't shake the feeling that he saw her as some lesser being, almost like Kamski had. She was no fancy prototype.
So yeah, her bitterness may have come through, just a tad. ]
[ Again, a long silence. Maybe it's her residual fear and the lingering dislike clouding his words with suspicion, she doesn't know. Maybe it's the feeling of inferiority? Whichever it is, she doesn't like that answer. ]
Nothing. I have no reason to get anything from you. We're both stuck here and... I'm not the same person anymore. [Android, but details.] There's no point in me trying to start anything, even if I wanted to.
[ Her eyes have narrowed, her hands balling into fists. The conflict inside her is strong. She knows he's like her. She knows he's right. Why is it so hard to let this go?
She breathes out in frustration. ]
I'll keep that in mind.
[ After that, she says nothing more. Otherwise she might give him an actual reason to start something. ]
[He really has nothing more to say than what's been said. He wasn't interested in pushing her into a conversation or talking to him if she didn't want to.]
Like I said. You know where to find me.
[And he'll leave it at that unless she wants to build off of that.]

There's nothing you need to give in the first place.
[Just her company was good enough and her forgiveness if she so chose it]
