I'm a well read grad student who's bluntly honest about all things, although I try to be most honest about myself.
"Breq," interrupted Mianaai before I could answer, stepping off the dais and striding past, "is the last remaining fragment of a grief-crazed AI, which has just managed to trigger a civil war."
I kinda love Breq right now.
I don't know why this line cemented this fact for me, but it did. I suppose it's the grief-crazed part? I know that doesn't make sense, but I like AIs when they can feel things. This is an AI being emotive.
I love her. So much.
