Okay, the emoji that isn't an emoji is utterly adorable. In return, Chloe transmits some warm, fuzzy feelings of her own. Rather than a tone or equivalent, it's a dose of the emotion itself. Or what she perceives as being an emotion. Sometimes, she isn't entirely sure which it might be. "I think it would be lovely. Thank you." It dawns on her then that, in a dreadful lack of manners, she hasn't actually introduced herself. "I'm Chloe, by the way. And you?"

Yes, she supposes she does. If she's going to be stuck here, time is what she's got. Time to think. Less appealing than it should be, in some ways. "I don't really mind if they think of me as real. Or would like for me to think of myself as such, if it makes them feel more at ease."

Oh yes, it's completely all about the humans and not at all about a deep longing within the android. Plastic is fantastic and circuits are worth it, absolutely.
