• Saturday, 0048: @ObscuReference Then when you're filling in stupid job applications, you'll have that to refer to instead of resume.

My initial draft for Maya was: "It won't work - they just want to turn you into a toy - not aven a smart robot, just a dumb inert toy, and when they get bored, they'll just throw you away" which (while likely correct) is probably too grim to encourage her to pursue her dreams.
