"You seem to like everyone here. Is there anyone you don't like?"
"You seem to like everyone here. Is there anyone you don't like?"
"There are some that I do not enjoy spending much time with, but there are none I truly don't like." Four chuckled some.
"Well then. Who's your least favorite?"
"Three," Four said with confidence.
"Really? He's my least favorite so far as well. Very. . . assertive."
"Yes, he is," Four agreed. "He doesn't seem to understand how… overpowering his personality can be."
"He will learn. I think. It's sort of endearing. Mostly obnoxious. But a little bit nice."
Four chuckled slightly.
"Well, perhaps he will, perhaps he won't."
"He will. I'm confident he will." She turned her attention to her coding for a moment then returned to Four. "Do you like cats? I mean, I know you don't have a pet, but do you like them?"
"Cats are nice," Four said after some time of thinking. A look flashed across his face as Orion did something to the code, but nothing was said and it disappeared without a glitch.
"Hmmm." She deleted her work and then did it again, hoping to catch a glimpse of the anomaly again.
Four made another face, like he had just sucked on a lemon. Then, it was gone. It seemed unlike the others, Four was faster at correcting himself than the code meant to do so.
"Alright. Interesting. I bet it's because you're the butler. You probably know more than most of them. Who runs this place again? Two?"
"Twelve." Four couldn't help it.
"Right. He probably knows the most. Okay." She put another semicolon at the end of a different line.
Four froze for a moment, then looked around.
"What are you doing?" he demanded. No glitch.
"Messing with you. Why?" She shifted in her seat.
"Stop it. It feels… strange." Four shook his head in disgust.
"Alright, alright." She leaned back. "How many rooms are in the hotel?'
"Thirty-seven." Four seemed to calm down then, when Orion stopped messing with the code.
"Why thirty-seven? Any particular reason? I feel like forty would be better. Or thirty-five."
"Because, there are thirty-six of us," Four explained, "And we need an extra room for a guest."
"Huh. I didn't realize there were so many of you."
"Mm. Most never ask." Four smiled calmly.
"Are you. . . related in any way?"
Four was silent.
"No." Liar.
"Right. Sure. Is anyone else related to these other residents?
"No, not that I know of." This time, it was the truth. It was only them.
"Alright. How many of them are you related to?"
"None," Four said. "As I pointed out before, none of us are related."
