[Connor tilts his head slightly, actually giving his answer some thought.]

In a way.

I was designed to accomplish tasks. I will continue to try to accomplish the task set out before me until I succeed.

I'm not sure if that qualifies as 'feeling' satisfied or not, but doing nothing but waiting isn't really working towards accomplishing anything.

I believe I've felt something similar to frustration, however. [Since Miller seemed so interested in his inner thoughts and feelings it seemed like a reasonable thing to share with him.] Failing seems to have a very distinct... sting to it. I don't like failing.

[pampa]

[ it makes sense, in programming. give the robot incentive to succeed. it kind of freaks him out though, that connor can choose what those tasks are, ultimately. maybe that doesn't matter, not while they're all stuck here. ]

Failing sucks no matter who you are. I should know, I do it all the time.

[rk800connor]

If it's something you're experienced in, do you have any advice regarding how to best deal with the feelings of frustration?

[Because Miller obviously had his shit together.]

[pampa]

You're asking me? [ he sounds bemused. ] Don't make me your role model, kid. I'll let you down. Bigtime.

[rk800connor]

Yes... Oh. [He frowned slightly, LED flickering thoughtfully.] But you indicated that you had ample experience with failure. I was simply hoping that you might have some advice...

[pampa]

Ohhh, I get it. You want a guide on what not to do. In that case, you came to the right fucking place.

[rk800connor]

Do you feel as though you don't handle failure well?

[His tone was completely neutral, sounding almost detached. It seemed pretty obvious that Miller was mostly avoiding his request; Connor just didn't completely understand why, and he wanted to.]

[pampa]

[ he scoffs. ] Who does?

[rk800connor]

[Connor, once again, looks slightly discouraged, LED flickering yellow as he tried to figure out where he'd gone wrong.]

I apologize.

I thought...- You said you were experienced in dealing with failure. I thought maybe...-

Again. I apologize.
