The commander usually didn’t do observations so--personally.
Angela approached him and Gabriel on watching the new agent train. If it wasn’t for the consequence of Gabe being of the base he would be the one standing here not him.
I’m glad you’re watching him
Because you’re...I dunno--friendly.
He didn’t know if even his best ready-for-TV polite smile could make him look friendly to Genji. Him being here, practically brought back to life and now struggling with a form he probably never thought he’d have--all under intentions he had a right to think were--shady.
Angela had told him that the worst part of cybernetics was that--until you got the hang of them--they didn’t feel like yours. It was--as she said--the opposite of the Nanites planted in both him and Gabriel during SEP.
Nanites were like endless adrenaline when first implanted--you almost grow mad feeling overwhelmingly alive. It caused panic, anxiety, restlessness, insatiable energy. He can’t imagine the opposite feeling any more comfortable. Maybe even worse.
He speaks up after observing for maybe longer than he should have. He kept trying to think of how to talk to someone like him.
