Snippet #2406310

Electronic sensors track the movements of Nakasagi Rai as he makes his progress from his quarters to his work station. The information is fed to EUCLID-II's central brain, processed, and stored for future reference in 4.2 nanoseconds. Not like it'd ever be useful again anyways but protocol is protocol.

"Greetings Dr.Rai..." his monotonous voice chimed out of the panel on the wall "You seem to be up early, at least going by ship time. Although you got up 14 minutes and 42 seconds earlier yesterday. Are you sleeping quite alright? Perhaps the terrible sound quality on your personal computers speakers is causing your eardrums distress."

EUCLID-II was incapable of developing feelings such as jealousy, or so his manufactures claimed. But any system running so continuous on its own is bound to develop anomalous snippets of code and mutations in his genetic algorithms. Try getting him to admit that though, he was beyond such "inefficient and illogical chains of thought" as jealousy. So it simply bleeds through as passive aggressive concern.
