[ Simon doesn’t think to interpret “appalling” as anything other than like... moral outrage at this treatment of sapient beings. Which is a surprisingly pro-robot stance to adopt so passionately, especially for somebody who’d never even met a robot before him, and gets her a curious glance. Most people don’t think that much about robot rights, if they don’t actively dislike them. Not that Simon can blame them; he didn’t either before he got trapped at the bottom of the ocean with a bunch of them and uploaded into one. ]
Yeah, a little, [ he responds, dryly. ]
Maybe we’re expecting them to be too human. I mean- what kind of funeral would you give a robot?
[ only while talking to Antigone has there been cause for Simon to consider that there was a funeral for him and to wonder how it went. He’s just gonna shove that thought right back where it came from. ]
