[He may as well be talking to a corrupted. It's as useless as trying to prove a point to a wall and believe it to be listening.]
He's programmed to be that so called "dependent" but time and quirks have made it much worse. The Orokin constructed him to protect as much as help me and I in turn swore to do the same for him. I didn't have to. He's merely a cephalon and one worn by time and loneliness.
You know, after I retrieved all of the parts the Grineer tore from him, he told me it was ok to destroy him. To get a new partner. I told him no.
So yes I know that it's not favorable to you or the crew. But that's how it's been for centuries. There is no simple fix. ...we are trying for this ship.
[He looks away.] So until he wishes for me to not to or Lotus somehow tells me not, I will come whenever he calls.
[Well, she didn't really expect him to understand her point. She'll need to consider a new angle of attack. Probably talk to the captain first, though, since he will no doubt have computer person insights.]
You missed my main point, Tenno. The effect this has on the ship and crew is secondary. I am concerned because this is unfair to Ordis. Ordis is part of this crew now, just as much as you are, and you will need to get used to the fact that his mental health and ability to function is no longer solely your concern. It is my job to see to his wellbeing.
[And to Wrath, the job is sacred.]
Your history is important context. But your circumstances have changed completely, as have his. I understand very well that these things have no simple fix, and I am prepared to discuss the matter in detail to search for a new angle of address. [She tilts her head slightly.] But as of right now, you seem uninterested in even acknowledging that there is a problem.
[Pushing himself to his feet, he strides over to her. He looks down at her with narrowed eyes.]
Do not tell me that I am so blind as to not see a problem with my partner. He is damaged and I know that. I'm appreciative of your help as much as the rest. The situation has changed. I get that.
But do not talk to me as if I'm stupid enough to ignore said facts. And I will gladly repeat myself. Ordis has the last say so now that we cannot contact Lotus and you will not be the one to stop me from my duty. He will.
[Now she just looks unimpressed. Really, Tenno, trying the height thing? Really? She's kicked scarier, taller, grumpier things out of bed in the morning and told them to go to work.]
You need to clean out your fucking ears if you think anything I've said conflicts with your duty. [Eyebrow raise.] Unless your duty actually is to keep Ordis completely dependent upon your approval in order to function?
[He's fought things bigger than this ship before so in all honesty there is no fear when standing up to Wrath and he has no desire to fight her. There is respect for her but right now he was sincerely not liking her.]
We're done here.
[Turning away from her, he returns back to his previous work.]
[The temptation to make this into a pissing contest is pretty fierce, but also useless. She knows her back is a mess and she can't really back it up, which is frustrating.
But hell, what is there to respect about her. She's hollow. But she sets that aside, refocuses on the point of this conversation, reassess. Which is basically, Tenno is going to be an active detriment to Ordis at this rate, and she's just going to have to find a way of dealing with it. This is going to be a long-term thing anyway.]

You may be done.
I'm going to do my job.
[She heads out of the armory.]
