Katelin. It’s good to hear from you again.
I’m settling in well enough. Focusing on what’s important — places to live and job opportunities. Familiarizing myself with the city.
Then you have an advantage over me. And I guess you can’t provide me with a reason why an android suddenly has a human body, from a biologist’s perspective?
You asked me of particular interests in art and music: my answer is that I’ll cater to what will provide income for myself and someone else, for now. But as for personal preferences, I prefer painting and playing the piano.
I've considered that. But depending on its exclusivity, they're not going to let just anyone play. I'd have to make the cut. Outperform any competition.

[ actually, the answer is no. she does have the degree, that much isn't a lie - but she's a field agent, not a scientist. ]

Maybe they still hire pianists in bars here?

No pressure, as they say.

I used to play often.

Though you'd probably have to listen to a VR version of my performance. Somehow I don't think I'm going to find a real baby grand anytime soon.
[Or even hope to afford one to practice on.]
no subject
