[ She's thinking hard, and fast. The priorities: to make this fun, like a game; because it is interesting, and doesn't have to be scary. To do something rigorous, so that they can think of all the different possible options. And to do so in a way that doesn't make her dear friend uncomfortable.
And there's a pretty simple solution to all of those, when she puts it together in that way. She smiles. ]
Kind of. Niina-san... you think about things really logically. What if you came up with a series of tests, and I executed them for you? We'd have to account for all the different variations of ways someone could ask you to do something - an order, a suggestion, an idle wish - and maybe even friends of different types too, like your friends at the school, compared to just anybody on the network; plus different types of suggestions, easy ones or really dangerous ones; there's all sorts of different factors... but I feel like you'd be able to think of more variations than me. And that way, it's not really me asking you to do any of it, either; it's you putting together the plan, and I'm just helping you with it.
[ She pauses, and thinks back about what she just said. ] Although-- well, I suppose even that suggestion could come across as an order, just like when I suggested cleaning this room by mistake... so, just to clarify! It's not something that I want to do or don't want to do. ... I mean, it would be cool, but it's also something that I could try out just as easily when I change into a simulacrum, too! So... if it's something that you want to do, Niina-san... then maybe I could help you, if you wanted.
[ Her brain is starting to hurt a little bit, but she thinks she covered her bases? Man, being a simulacrum is more complicated than she thought. ]
