"Can You Handle Your Emotions?"

Emotions are... eh. We all have them, whether we want to or not. Some people have control over their emotions, and some people let their emotions control them. Where does your character fall on this spectrum? More importantly, what's their relationship with their emotions like? Do they bury everything deep, deep down inside, or are they the first one to cry over a sappy movie? Do they even know how they feel about what's going on inside? Pretty meta stuff.

• No blank top-levels.
• Instead, characters are to respond to the proposed question: can you handle your emotions? / are you in touch with your feelings?
• Get deep. Look within. Hear, think feel... or don't.

My purpose? To safeguard my freedom, and the individuals in my care.

[Hmm. That's a tactic Arid knows pretty well- even if it took her a while to recognize she was doing it.]

Has that tactic been successful for you?

More often than not.

It isn't perfect, more like a temporary patch.

How do you individuals come into your care? Do you choose them?

I do now.

[Her tone is low and determined. She devoted herself to protecting the wrong man because she was programmed to, before. Never again.]

My allies are more than worthy. They saved me from terminating once before - in spite of the harm I caused them, trying to save myself. Protection is the least I owe them.

[Conner isn't sure what to make of that. She was used to machines that took direction or answered questions when prompted. The more she spoke with the android the more she understood how deep the android's feelings went.]

What makes them worthy? I mean, are there character presets you look for or is it a feeling?
