"It's the constant debate in my world. The constant struggle." I want to be real for you.
A real boy now. Loved. Wanted.
I have memories, but they're not real.
"Replicants aren't born, we're made. Constructed to order, put together out of parts of other things, out of the imaginations of humans, to the whim of humans. Artificial. Realistic, the closer the better, but never real."
Anything real should be a mess.
"We don't have souls, we only feel pain - feel anything - because we were given the ability to, we're only alive because someone else paid for us and only so long as we're serving a purpose. We don't have a right to exist in and of itself. We're not real."
