What is it that keeps you living? Why? What makes it worth it to you?

[That’s, uh. That’s it. That’s the message. There’s no follow-up explanation or anything.

She’s just curious and doesn’t seem to see how alarming a question like that out of the blue might be]

[Yuri doesn't respond for a moment, startled by the frankness of the response.]

You have a lot of self-confidence, huh? Not that that's a bad thing. I'm impressed.

A glitch, though?

Of course! I'm an AI that was born from a situation that wasn't supposed to be, and I got admin powers and then I nearly had the entirety of the system under my thumb until I was undermined and now... now I'm here!

I have no shame in my origin or my past. But such philosophical questions are pointless if they don't lead to anything.

[ALright she feels like she can only partly follow along with all of that but she... probably gets it.]

I'm assuming you're not just an AI here, are you? Like you have a physical body and everything?

I was just curious to what everyones' answers would be. You can learn a lot about what a person values or even hints into what their lives were/are like by their answers.

I have a physical body yes! I went from 2.5D to 3D! o(^▽^)o

Ehhhhh. So you're one of those types of people. A busy body.

[onerous]

A 'busy body' sounds so negative though. I don't think I'm pushy about it or anything. Am I?

It's just something I was thinking about a lot lately. if there's a 'right' or a 'wrong' reason.

You don't get out of your room much, do you? Well it can't be helped that you're asking on the internet.

[onerous]

That make me sound like some kind of NEET or hikikomori...

It's just a little less awkward than asking people face-to-face.

Don't you have any imagination? These conversations are best in a group, with coffee, everyone is dressed in black...
