"I would pay really good money to just see a pomeranian with fox legs," Bree mused absentmindedly. She didn't even like dogs, but that was just goddamn hilarious.
"I've looked inside one!" Bree protested. "Or, well, I did after I decided to do this. I just didn't realize how many little bits there were on each thing. A hard drive is made up of so many parts," she added with a clear hint of existential despair to her voice. But the rest of the questions, she could at least answer... sort of. She'd been making a case study of Jean for a while, because he wouldn't tell her jackshit.
"So it depends on how intense the emotion is," she explains, squatting down next to him to gesture towards some of the part. "My prevailing theory is that we can overpower any weird aftertaste of factory-worker misery just by pumping enough interesting emotional residue into the construction. If you know anywhere I can get ethically sourced computer bits, that would help me immensely, because I'm going for a general feel of joy-love-and-orgasms so I don't want an aftertaste of misery souring the whole thing." She had considered leaning HARD into the despair concept but she was not Jean, not particularly good at breaking hearts, and also that didn't seem very ethical.
She tapped idly on the case with the back of her knuckle, thinking. "I'm actually not sure about the machine thing. I think it's just that the absence of any residue winds up feeling uncanny...? But machine made parts we have really intense feelings about would probably work better than parts made by humans who were just kind of vaguely suffering the whole time. We don't need to worry about lights or LEDs or anything fancy; he'd just be put-off by it. I'm going for a really victorian sort of feel," she added, gesturing to the half-finished keyboard. "Quiet running would be a plus, just... knowing him."
She laughed when he mentioned money, though she couldn't blame him. She was exactly like that too, but she had secured an unreasonable amount of money for this. Jean clearly had no concept of how much a computer cost. She held up one finger, then wandered off to her room.
She came back and took great pleasure in dropping a bundle of hundreds directly onto the computer part he was curiously exploring. It landed with a satisfying thud. "That's five thousand dollars," she explained with a smug smile, leaning back on her counter and crossing one leg over another. "That should give me a lot of research, shouldn't it?"
And hopefully she could judge by his reaction how gently she needed to ease into the 'orgasm' section of this plan.
