She told me that it didn't matter whether or not I was in a simulation, because the real world was basically just a simulation, too.

[So yeah, talking about living on in the Machine's memories sounds pretty on brand for her.

The mention of the two of them lived together in close contact, building experiences and memories during the time that Shaw had been away, hasn't escaped her notice - and it occurs to her that Harold, more than anyone, can go beyond just commiserating with her: he can tell her about the time with Root that she'd missed out on. And while commiserating can only go so far with her (she appreciates the spirit of it, it doesn't mean nothing, but she's also well aware of it not meaning as much as it should), sharing new information has a much more concrete purpose to her.

So. She clears her throat.]

I, uh-- what was it like, being roomies?
