N-No...it isn't you. I just get distressed easily...I don't want to lose your trust even if I don't lose your loyalty. You're...really important to me. You always will be, no matter what.
[It may be more personal, but at the same time... Connor's tone shifts as he explains. It's easier to return to his default when speaking about this.]
I was ordered to put an end to the android uprising by any means necessary... Even those that don't necessarily comply with the laws of my world. Though androids are forbidden from bearing weapons or endangering human lives, my programming allows me to do both at my own discretion.
[...]
I know you wouldn't. But you could order me, or any of your other followers, to kill or maim— And you would still have my absolute trust. My primary concern was that someone had gone behind your back and committed an act that you disapproved of. That is all.
Even though your creator gave you a purpose you didn't want?
[Quietly. But it doesn't sound like he doubts his words, per say. More like he's trying to understand another point of view.]
The androids from my world— The deviants. They resent humans for using them for their designated purposes. It's... a relief to know you disagree with their opinion.
I guess...in the end I feel like...if I don't have a purpose I like, it's more constructive to just make a new one for myself.
[Hating them doesn't change it. It just leaves bitterness.]
I think it's okay to be upset for as long as you need...I'm still upset, after all. But I want to do things that make me happy. I want to make a whole world where people are happy. That's what drives me, now.

[Justice takes a breath.]
S-So you just wanted...to know, for the future? Just to know what...what I could or couldn't say?
no subject
[It's more that he's concerned someone went off and killed without Justice's consent, but. It's fine, maybe.]
I apologize for causing you distress. It feels like I'm doing that relatively often these days.

Justice, do you know what my mission is? The one I was given in my own world?
no subject
[He might already know, but he likes hearing them explain these things. It feels more personal that way.]

You're right, I'd never order you to do that.

You're an enforcer. I was, too. That's why I'm so strong.
no subject
You're an enforcer— But you were designed to look like a child?
[hey delta, wtf.]

[He clenches his fists. Clearly, he doesn't like having this knowledge.]
My creator's own justice, I suppose.
[Hey delta wtf is basically the entire zero escape plotline]
...I guess it's just a human privilege to be able to find your own purpose in life instead of just being assigned one.
no subject
... Do you resent humans for it? For having the liberty to choose their own purpose in life?
no subject
[Startled, Justice snaps his gaze up.]
No...of course not! I'm so...happy for them. I'm a little jealous, but...I love them.

[His opinion of the deviants from his world is still at ground level, but. Well. That's a matter for another day.]
I hope that world can become a reality. Individuals should be content, not filled with unease.
