You were going to dismantle the machine, were you not?
...So it wasn't exactly by choice? [ forced to revise his assumptions again, but this is par for the course for any conversation with scien. still, he doesn't offer pity because he thinks it would just get thrown back at him. ]
And, I didn't think you were interested. [ he'd just meant, glad dahut was spared from the pain in general. if there's anything he knows about scien, it's that he cares deeply for dahut. ]
I did, but if I deem it necessary, I could put it back together again. [he just doesn't want anyone else to have access...]
For my experiment, it was my choice to modify my lungs based on preliminary research to see if it was ready for all Reliver models. However, the pain is an unexpected side effect even though my lungs are strengthened.
[they're stronger and he can endure more than the average person, but also every breath is absurdly painful so it's also unsustainable for the average person]
You've made it quite clear. Then to be frank, I don't care about your ego, either. You refuse to change, and so do I.
I think it's unfortunate you suffer such pain, and so I offer condolences. I am grateful for your actions, regardless of your intention, and so I express my thanks.
Whether you accept my words or not is of no consequence to me. And neither are you beholden to them.

[ he'll sit down across from scien, whom i assume has been seated. ]
...I'm sorry. That doesn't sound pleasant.

You don't need to apologize, just as you don't need to thank me for my choices.
It is for the sake of my ego, so that I can remain true to my own choices.

Think of it as a colloquialism, then.
