That brought out a smile from her, though she didn't transform back into her usual persona.  "I guess the real question to make sense of it would be, if I was a guy but preferred to be a girl in the 'trix, if you'd still be interested."  She paused for a moment.  "I mean...I tried it once, as a guy.  I didn't tell, but she didn't ask, and she didn't really care next time she met me.  I guess I never really thought it'd be a big deal to some people."  She paused for a moment to consider, didn't seem sure, then wanted to ask, "So if someone was a guy in the meat, you knew that, but they had a hot female persona, you wouldn't be interested?  Or you'd only be upset if you weren't told straight off the bat, and you want to know how different someone's persona is and what they truly look like before you'd be interested?"<br/><br/>Smiley had already at least volunteered to meet every Runner present in the meat, even if she stayed in VR the entire time.  Her first run had had a few issues when she tried to just send a Smileydoll and people didn't trust her when she didn't show her face.  Of course, she was much quieter in AR, and didn't like the experience nearly as much as her near-constant VR immersion.
