His apologies came as fleeting, and she could not attribute them to sense. She could comprehend the impression behind it, but something like that... was just worthless. "An apology is not required," she said, somewhat softer than before. It was this place, she thought, then. This place that was treating her like she was more than what her role dictated, and all of that was simply strange. Irregular. There was no point in simply asking her to exist for herself.

It was not something she was capable of. Or was interested in doing.

To his second comment, Rei stared. Quietly and outright, no emotions or changes visible on her mien. Stared as if contemplating the answer, as she rightly was. Did it matter to her, whose goal she served? As long as it didn't go against her original purpose, the purpose from her original world, it didn't matter to her at this point. She hadn't seen enough of this place to judge it as right or wrong.

And Rei herself was half-incapable of making that judgment. It was not something she placed substance in.
