["Somewhere between" is a phrase he's often used to describe himself, though not as a bridge between synthetics and organics -- he's in the gap between two generations of synths. The Gen 2 synths, with their pale skin and yellow eyes, have an undeniably manufactured appearance; however, it's only the Gen 3 synths that seem to have any kind of personality, that have enough human behavior programmed into them to actually pass for one. And then there's Nick, not enough of either one to fit squarely with the rest.

It's not as bad as it used to be, now that he's got someone to talk to, someone to commiserate with. He only hopes it lasts -- he's thought more than once already on the fact that people vanish regularly, there one day and gone the next as the Door sees fit to bring them in and take them out.

Down his eyes go to his hands, particularly that obviously mechanical one.]


I'm glad you came back.
