9: That's kind of nice. 9: I think. 9: Unless it isn't?
[Kouyuki likes the sky and the wind and the feeling of freedom that comes from both, but what if 01's name was something like his? Implying something unkind in the context of this app and its induced hallucinations. Calling him artificial.
He considers both of 'his' names. His real one, and the one this app has forced on him. Neither name is bad. He's always known what his own means, and he's never disliked it. In fact, before this app had appeared, he'd always thought it sounded a little festive and cute. More appropriate for a girl, sure, but he'd never let that bother him, just like he hadn't let the meaning bother him. So why is it so hard now not to be rattled by that meaning? Why can't he shrug it off the way he's always done before?]
