( He lets out a quiet sigh from his vents, expression not changing much except for his slightly tired optics. )
No matter if it does or not, it's besides the point.

「 Does it? 」
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤA small smirk cracks on his face, a weakness in Enker's defenses shown.
「 I know how it feels to compare yourself to others. Trust me, I do. It won't get you anywhere. 」

It matters much less to me now than it used to.

Ah, it’s nothing, really. There are robots out there who are far more heroic than myself.
( Enker tries to be noble /now,/ but he surely wasn’t back then. He’s just making up for his actions now. )
I appreciate the compliment, though, so thank you.

Not anymore, no. When I was created, the only thing I cared about was my purpose.
Thankfully, I found a better one, and left my creator.

No, not exactly. I was built to hunt down and destroy one specific robot.
( He takes the time to sit down on a fallen log. )
My creator… despised him, for defeating all of his other creations. I was built to be an exact counter to that robot’s abilities.

Hm, I suppose not.
( Despite the uncomfortable feeling, Enker appreciates the other's willingness to answer, as it helps him feel more familiar. )
I have asked many questions, so it's only fair that you do the same.

「 Why are you apologizing? I'm the one who told you to ask. 」

「 But, would you mind if I did the same? 」

Ah. I-I'm sorry to hear you're... afflicted with such a condition.
( The sight will stick in his mind for a while. )
And... my apologies for being so nosy.

「 Ah... no. This is from... a series of old mistakes. 」
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤHe brings the hand closer to Enker— if only he hadn't. Even within the darkness of the hand, the veins of the hand are visible, marked with an even darker shade.

( That's much more unsettling than the flowers. )
You mentioned before that you were friends with this 'darkness'. Is that why your hands are...?

「 She is. But, ah, enough about that. 」
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤHe covers his mouth with a hand, covering a decent amount of his cheeks in the process. His hands look... clawed, almost, tainted with some inky darkness.

I-I see. It was impressive either way.

I have never seen… magic… like you just exhibited. Naturally, I would have a lot on my mind afterwards…
