"No proof at all. He searched all of my phone and all of my conversations but didn't find anything."
She shook her head again, smiling like she was Supposed to even as she was still so wired.
It could have been worse, but really, how much of that was supposed mercy and how much of that was her own quick thinking? Her careful dissemination of information? And a few half truths, a few lies?
"I'll be able to recount the conversation in a little while. It's still replaying a bit, with the adrenaline," she stated, mostly as an apology. "But I think there wouldn't have been anything I could have said or done that would've resulted in anything different. If I made a performance about disavowing my EMMA when mine doesn't function the way his is describing, if I disavowed any interest in cognitive psience, I'm quite sure he would have assumed I was lying to save myself in advance. I was doomed from the moment I set foot in here. So hopefully I can be useful enough to leave intact."
