AL smiles at V. "And good on you for it. There's a reason the alter ego calls you her 'Inspiration Fairy'. Usually it's because of something you've written that I get something to do whether it's in my normal universe or my Secundus self. She does still plan on writing that fourth story, by the by...I think she wants to try and finish this stuff with Data and I first."
And then she fidgets a little under Simon's frown. "I originally wasn't going to. Had it not happened the way it did, I probably could've held out a little longer. I would've just asked if we could just spend a little more time together." She pauses. "But I had found out the one I loved was going to die and I didn't get the chance to really talk to him before he was sent to 1893. And then it was too late until the ship's engineer reattached the head they found - yes, Data's head is 500 years older than his body. Time travel. Anyway, once he was reactivated and safe, that's when I decided that I didn't want to just be a friend; I wanted to be more even though he couldn't return my feelings then."
"I believed it would be beneficial if I were to agree," says Data. "I did not want to cause her any more pain."
She smiles a little. "He's talking about how I told him it hurt when I saw his body. You know...inside?" She puts her fists to her chest to elaborate. "And then two years later he got the emotion chip and was finally able to return my feelings. The only thing that couldn't be done was we couldn't be linked. Won't work with an android brain...same reason as to why I can't read his mind. I could sense his feelings once he got them, though, so that had to be close enough."
AL pokes V back. "Right on all counts." Then she laughs at the rest of them. "I think we're all ramblers on certain subjects. Get the alter ego talking about horses or, well, any of us and we can't shut her up."
