Chester wasn't used to interacting with DEE, and in fact he'd only seen him once or twice in the years he'd worked here, so he was pretty taken aback by DEE and how he came off. He technically LOOKED like Dumas, down to the little scars and lines in his face, but his voice and stance and everything else was just slightly skewed enough to be his own person. His voice sounded younger, less worn from care and worry, and his word choice was a lot more naive, like the being made of billions of colors of light saw only in black and white. And then his stance, his complaint, the tone he was using... it was something Chester had never seen in Dumas. When Dumas was mad, it was a true and violent rage, while this kind of mad was the justified kind of anger you get from religious types. Regardless of the anger, Chester found it absolutely entertaining.<br/><br/>"Why, it turns out he's not your little brother, but your conscious." Chester teased only a little bit and then addressed the program.<br/><br/>"Then what would you do DEE? Have YOU figured out where she's gone? Or a better way to help her? Because we can't just keep letting her disappear like this when it could kill her." Chester reasoned. "Do you care more about your morality, or Mari?"<br/><br/>He did really want an answer from he program, not just because they could use any new ideas, but also because Chester was curious as to how intelligent and how human DEE was. True AI programs took years of slow, gradual programming, massive amounts of memory banks, and a hint of luck. And DEE came about on accident, as far as Chester knew. To be honest, Chester was half convinced that DEE could be a split personality of Dumas just manifest through the computer, but he was willing to find out one way or the other, and contrary to what DEE thought, Chester wasn't about to crack open his code to find out. Doing so could effectively 'kill' an AI, and the world was too small to break something this wonderful just out of curiosity.
