... Mundane.

It would do you well to end this ridiculous moping of yours soon.

Allow me to make one thing perfectly clear, though I doubt this information will properly register in your brain... Just like all other sensible advice I find myself feeling kind enough to give you.

I do not desire your pity, nor have I any need for it. I do not wish for anyone's pity. All experiments qualify as a gamble by default; sometimes one succeeds, sometimes one fails. To assume that this was any more than that confirms your lack of the ability to properly understand my reasoning. [ but that's most likely not quite true, and he knows it. ]

Of course, I don't expect you to understand. Doing so would be demanding too much of a silly primate girl such as yourself. Hoho...
