He and I discussed the process based on what he recalled during our very first week here, since I noticed his emotion processing was different from mine.
[scien wanting to see dahut's heart after murdering him was such a weird rationalization from him to try to make sense of his violence, and fell apart quickly under his own scrutiny....]
He spliced a few memory banks together... but the correct number is about five. Then there is the process of ensuring that the entire experience is able to transfer to the next body—but that is what I will be seeking to uncover.
But as long as you know. I will have to make a number of disposable vessels and salvage out the memory banks from each.
Makes sense. Daisychain everything together so you aren't overloading one bank and spread out the information to be processed simultaneously. I can see how it might be easy to lose something in translation though with that much data.

...I know this might not be relevant to what I'm trying to discover myself. But I think understanding how the body adapts in any of these situations is still important.
... then during the process tomorrow, I will allow it. You may observe, but I will not ask you to assist in anything that requires you to get your hands dirty.
[sweet shoma doesn't need to take on the task of carving up scien's empty vessel like a thanksgiving turkey]
[ a nod of thanks. that's good enough for him. but...that's an offer he hadn't quite considered, though he doesn't say no immediately. ]
Into a spare bank? [ this reasoning makes sense, honestly. ] It's a back-up, so all of my current memories still stay with me, don't they? I don't think I'd mind that. As a failsafe.
It's exactly as it sounds. A memory back-up, a copy of the memories you had at the time of upload.
Dahut and I might offer it to the ship at large, in case anyone is worried about death... but it'd also be useful to you outside of here, so I'll permit you to take your data with you.
It would be. We did talk about me sorting through my memories for anything that might help in my search. I could at least study it more in-depth when I got home.
In the end, it is still data. You should be able to read it with your systems, since you and that girl with the artificial intelligence in her eye are from the same place.
Like I'm telling Mizuki what I'm doing. [ which is a little more sharp than usual, but it smooths out again almost instantly. ] But you're right. We're advanced enough that I could figure out a way to read it on my own when we got back. That shouldn't be a problem.
No. [ well. ] But she'd probably...it doesn't matter since it's my own data and something I need to fix for myself.
[ she'd probably caution him to be careful and not get in too over his head and blahblahblah while being skeptical of him figuring it out, and it's the latter that he isn't interested in. ]
If I can't read it myself, I'll figure out another way to do it.
We do. [ judging by the tone that is actually true. that's never been an issue. ] But when we get back she's got a whole bunch of other stuff to get back to, and I have my own stuff to figure out. So it's easier not to go into it until I have to.

You may help Dahut with basic procedural tasks.
no subject
but thank you, scien, for your consideration. he would in fact absolutely not be cool with doing that part himself. ]
Understood. I'll help where allowed and observe when Dahut and you take over yourselves. Let me know when tomorrow and I'll be here.

[that will be his summons... scien continues to look through some of the code and data that fly through the screen in a rapid pace, tilting his head]
I was going to ask if you're interested in uploading your memory data. Partially as a failsafe in case we're about to embark on anything dangerous.
Partially because you could take it with you when you leave.

I'm not doubting that.
I still find your answer odd. You seem like you trust each other.

Results are what matters.

As long as all your resources are being utilized.

[ and maybe he'll tell her later when he's not kind of frustrated with her, but he does at least acknowledge abis as a whole is a resource. ]
