Was everyone who went to check on the Pillar altered somehow...?

What happened down there?

[He hesitates. It hasn't really seemed like anything good came out of going down there. Except for, you know, the whole No More Pillar thing.]

...

If there's anything that I can do... I will. Police should help those in trouble. Shouldn't they?

[thxforthememories]

Is that a bad thing?

[deadlydoctor]

No, actually it is.

I like it. When did you started enjoying life?

[thxforthememories]

I've always liked living.

[deadlydoctor]

Who wouldn't enjoy that?

And now that you are finally acknowledging it, what are you going to do to enjoy life?

[thxforthememories]

I don't know. There might be some.

... I'm part of a team.

[deadlydoctor]

Glitched people, maybe.

I see. [His tone of voice change to a less mocking one.] That does change things.

[thxforthememories]

You really think so?

[deadlydoctor]

I do. For good or bad.

Who's your team?

[thxforthememories]

The Brave Police.

[deadlydoctor]

So you are with Bunny, McCrane and Pretty eyes. [That last one would be Deckard.]

Sounds like a good group for you.

[thxforthememories]

Those aren't their names.

[deadlydoctor]

Wow, I can tell already that you will be a great detective.

No, those are nicknames but they work the same. Bunny calls me Red anyway.

[thxforthememories]

What's that supposed to mean?

Just use their real names.

[deadlydoctor]

Nothing, nothing.

I like my way better.

[thxforthememories]

Your way is more confusing.

[deadlydoctor]

My way is also less formal.

You aren't the best at social interactions, are you?

[thxforthememories]

I do fine.

[deadlydoctor]

You could do better.

You are as serious as Ratchet sometimes, you need to let go and relax. Do you have any hobbies?

[thxforthememories]

I look after Kay.

Does that count?

[deadlydoctor]

The little thief girl? [He likes her.]

Yes, she probably needs someone to look after her.

[thxforthememories]

Yes.

She does. We're family.

[deadlydoctor]

How sweet. Did you get her a Christmas present?

[thxforthememories]

...

What?

[deadlydoctor]

Christmas was two days ago. On Earth people who are family give each other presents.

[thxforthememories]

Two days...?

[He shakes his head a little. He'd thought it was -- that's weird.]

She hasn't said anything.
