Sanako was preparing for a long lines of arguing and explaining her position; she's been planning to build it with her own hands, no matter what, no matter if she has to spend everything up to her last credit for the sake of obtaining everything necessary for the project;
if only it was about merely acquiring 'a perfect body' covering all her flaws, starting with health ones and finishing with some personal complexes about her appearance, that she presented as non-existent for the society.
It was about building one herself, and for herself.
She carefully watched Alex making her 'Virgin Pina Colada' and passing it to her with a slight nod.
Dear Alex. A kind soul that cares about me like we have a titan-proof friendship for a century now.
Your concern's heart-warming, and i am truly grateful to you. However. There are still reasons that are making me arguing with you.
First. This is merely about 'obtaining' a 'perfect body' to use, to cure my imperfection and bolster my abilities even further than that what our Project has to offer. It is for my personal self-satisfaction; i am addicted not as much as to technology advanced samples as to the process of working with them, in any means.
I am devoted to what i am doing.
I am confident about what i am doing.
I am a human, i have my dreams.
And i am chasing after one of them.
Second. I have never implied i am yet confident that i will use Schwi - it's the way i call the concept - for my own purposes; while i have never got closer to solving the question of data - memories - extraction and transmission - i knew how everything else should work and look like.
I have studied the question at most points - aside from those i have looked into and barely understood anything due to the lack of special knowledge.
Third. Once again, i am both surprised and amused with how you are concerned about it me; but comparing me to some random person seeking to expirience air in his chest getting pressurized by vacuum...
Better than anyone else you know - this is not about me.
And neither it is due to his inability to handle himself in the enviroment of new sensations; i don't imply i am prepared, but i am basically different: he was running from something. I am making a huge step ahead.
But... I will this time listen to your concerns: 'Schwi' will be built, and all the preparstions will anyway be done, however, we will not jump right into mind transfer before we actually study the question better.
If i find enough arguments 'againts' - then i might overlook the necessity of my plans, but that's very, very unlikeky.
We 'can' and we still 'will' give it a try. Do not worry about the resources supplementing - i will make sure we will have everything 'Schwi' needs to be born.
