[So this is what it feels like to be alive.
As a doll, Four's interaction with the world is muted, dulled because he has no nerves or living bits that allow him to truly feel things. But now? He can feel the bed he's sitting on, and he can actually feel temperature! He carefully inspects his fingers and wiggles his toes. Wow! It feels so strange to have lungs and other sorts of organs!
A glance in a mirror causes him to do a double take though. Four has never truly attached gender to himself, so therefore has never been bothered with thinking about it. Imagine his surprise when he sees a clearly female face staring back. Further inspection says that yes, he is indeed a girl. What does this mean?
Anyway, Four is definitely announcing this. He excitedly turns on his device and waves out at the network. Look at him! He's a human and a girl, this is a very odd day but it's exciting. That idea that his human body is capable of speech never occurs to him.]
I'm human!
I want to know what food is like! And water. And wind!
Can someone show me what it's like to be alive?

It's nice to feel so close to the world.
