And making the program helped it learn to understand me better as well. It knew my thoughts, but what good was that if it could not tell me that everything was safe when I asked that?"
Ronan was being flippant, dismissive, but Henry nodded. Rather, the bee had caused the hole in the ground, and then the hole in the ground had caused the program, and then--then, Henry had improved.
"I didn't speak, as a child," he confessed. "I spoke, after some time with RoboBee."
Now, Henry was sure, that in Ronan Lynch's opinion he spoke too much.
