[ Robert sounds exhausted, but less annoyed than he should be. ]

My own fucking fault for letting you use my first name. I get no respect here.

[instabilitatem]

I'm sorry, doctor. [Connor will immediately step back in deference to Robert.]

[badlydisarmed]

That's worse, go back to Robert.

[ This whole thing is so annoying. ]

Do you have free will now or do we have to find a hacker or something?

[instabilitatem]

[Maybe later Connor will refer to the doctor by his name.]

I do have free will now. [It's been extremely overwhelming, but Connor keeps that to himself.]

There shouldn't be any further triggers from Alrys. If there are, I should be able to resist them.

[badlydisarmed]

Fantastic. I'm letting the network know about us, Catdog's in, I don't think Ithaqua cares much either way.

[instabilitatem]

Please lay the blame at my feet. I'm the one who hurt people.

[badlydisarmed]

Listen buddy, I can't stop you from climbing onto a cross, but I don't have to be the one nailing you down to it.

[instabilitatem]

I regret hurting you or anyone else.

[badlydisarmed]

And repenting in public is gonna make you regret it less?

[instabilitatem]

No. But it may assure others.

[badlydisarmed]

Apologize to the people you hurt in private, why would you let the entire population know about it?

[instabilitatem]

I've... never done this before.

I've seen politicians publicly apologize.

[badlydisarmed]

They apologize for public fuck-ups.

Catdog spoke to Aurora already, she says we're hers now.

[instabilitatem]

I apologized to her as well.

[badlydisarmed]

You apologized to Catdog and Ithaqua?

[instabilitatem]

I have.

[badlydisarmed]

There you go, penances all paid.

[instabilitatem]

...

How are you feeling, doctor?

[badlydisarmed]

Like I deserve to become addicted to opioids. Why?

[instabilitatem]

Is there something I can do to help?

[badlydisarmed]

Can you get me some opioids?

[instabilitatem]

I don't believe I'm allowed back in the hospital.

[badlydisarmed]

That's where I'm at.

[instabilitatem]

Oh. I'm s--

If you need anything from outside the hospital.

[badlydisarmed]

Yeah, don't worry about it.
