[ all she can really do is nod. She doesn't know how much A2 told him, but whatever she said was the truth - not that she expected otherwise.
The apology is less expected, and she's not sure what to do with it. Her death wasn't something she talked about even with 9S until recently. 2B hasn't thought about it very much until coming back into contact with A2 here forced her to. Why should she? She'd seen her own death as an inevitability. The end she'd been given was messy, but it was a nobler one than she deserved. She'd cut down so many of her sisters in the throes of the virus like rabid animals - yet she was given the chance, the honor, to pass peacefully. The only regret she has is that her passing hurt 9S - and that guilt is fresh and raw, an emotion she wouldn't have felt so keenly a few months ago. ]
... You don't have to apologize. I asked her to. [ I wanted her to kill me, is what she almost says, but she gets the feeling that if she says that, she'd hurt Simon, too. ] I'm not someone you should be mourning.
