Silence on Ryunosuke's end, for another moment. Synthetic or not, he feels some real sympathy for her. Pleading to be allowed a place to exist, to survive... Isn't that human enough?

And yet, he can't forget the first hand experience he's already had. A taste of the harm she's capable of causing, whether it was intentional on her part or not.

"...May I ask you one more thing?"

Before he answers her question. Before he makes any promises.

"In the Simulation room... Setting aside the fact that my companion and I who were trapped in there could have died. The scene you shared... It didn't exactly inspire much confidence, you know. Just what did you mean, exactly? What is the 'it', that this Maker fellow was convinced was so harmful?"

Not the orbs again, surely?
