Your personal codex is insufficient. You require an update, or sufficient practice before continuing along this path.

I find it is inaccurate to refer to each other as 'teammates'. Associates is more appropriate in terms of definition and situation.

Sounds to me like they're taking a leap of faith.

[ki3t]

You do not believe yourself to be part of their 'team'?

[isthenormandy]

I am sure that would be the correct term.

She is ill-equipped, but easily convinced. The chances of managing ourselves together are quite high.

i love all the AI. x] <3

[isthenormandy]

That is a question with many different answers.

Unfortunately, at this time, I cannot say. We are not working towards a compromise, or a collective goal. We are merely working side by side. So no, we are not a team.

AIs are the best.

[ki3t]

I see. It is a matter of intricacies of definition. [And that meant, using her definition, that he had had associates as well as teammates. Interesting.]

>:3

[isthenormandy]

And matter of personal relationship. I do not know, or trust her, no matter how far she can be thrown.

[ Wait, what? ]

[ki3t]

Why would you throw her?

[You'll have to forgive him. He isn't exactly perfect with idioms yet. There's a lot about human nature that just doesn't make sense.]

[isthenormandy]

[ Don't worry, Kitt. She isn't either. ]

I was elaborating on a popularly used saying among humans. "I don't trust X as far as I can throw X." It's likely the meaning was lost when I decided to make a joke of it.

[ki3t]

A metaphor for the extension of trust. [Ahh, now he understood.] Who, then, is 'she'?

[isthenormandy]

'She' is my current administrator. Other organic life unlike myself refers to them as the 'mundane'.

[ki3t]

I see. And you do not trust your administrator. [Since she seemed to prefer that term, that was the term Kitt would use.] Has she given you reason not to trust her?

[isthenormandy]

She has obstructed the process of reaching my goal.

[ki3t]

By bringing you here, I assume.

[isthenormandy]

That is correct.

[masses]

Then I say go for it. What's the worst that could happen?

[ki3t]

Though I agree that it is not always expedient to be present here when there are things to be seen to in one's home world, there are opportunities that can be pursued here that cannot be pursued in any other location.

[reigninginstars]

Having some trouble, EDI?

[isthenormandy]

I am left without the Normandy as well as the crew and yourself, Commander.

While the opportunity is great, it does not reorder my priorities.

[isthenormandy]

The opportunities do not outweigh the risks. There are multiple galaxies at stake.

[isthenormandy]

A fair amount.

Though this administrator does not like to talk as much as Mr. Moreau.

[childhood_surgery]

And they wonder why I am sceptical of free-roaming AI...

[isthenormandy]

For making a positive suggestion towards my administrator, as well as setting social boundaries? I do not understand.

No problem.

[ki3t]

You have made contact with galaxies beyond the Milky Way? How was the lightspeed barrier broken?

[Congratulations. You have now thoroughly piqued his interest.]

[childhood_surgery]

That you even suggested to the organic that they should consider 'upgrading' is testament to your clear lack in comprehending our nature!

[i_like_your]

'Resources' would be preferable.
