I'm not going to put those kinds of words in its mouth. If it even has a mouth. Its orb speaking apparatus.
[Even if it...explicitly said them...listen, ]
See, that's exactly my point - we're making all kinds of assumptions about what this orb wants and what it's getting out of it, but it's so far from being human that I'm not sure we can. Or even humanoid. Or living in the technical sense. What does something like this really feel like it needs to survive and be happy?
