"Riiiiight. Because most humans around here refer to themselves in the third-person-form of their own species." Sentient robotic personalities? What in the nine realms was this kid talking about? "Nothing wrong with not being human." He shrugged and pointed to his face. "Human face too, see? Human flesh and human blood. ...sort of. Not really, but close enough. Either way, I'm not human either." That didn't mean he was going to tell Crazy McCrayCray here just what he was, but maybe it'd help the other calm down.
Yes, very convincing. Nothing suspicious about your suspicious behaviour at all. Nope. He'll just, uh... pretend it isn't suspicious lest the suspicious weirdo try to spill his not-human blood all over the nice clean tile for calling him on his mistruths.
"Jim?" And then it dawned on Loki and it took every ounce of skill he had not to bust out with an amused cackle. "Yes, JIM, right. Just an Intelligent Mainframe. But he didn't like JAIM, so he said the A was to be silent. Y'know how those mainframes can be. So vain sometimes. Nothing like those clever Sentient Robotic Personalities. They're much more refined." It was a shot in the dark, but hey, a shot worth taking. Wheatley would either learn to lie better or Loki would just have way too much fun with this.
"I don't know if JIM has control of any neurotoxin, I think the humans of this facility learned from their mistakes, but let's plan for the worst, shall we? I could try my hand at hacking the system, but with a boast like that, I best leave it up to the professionals. I'll play defence to ensure you make it there safely and we can all partake in the very real cake when this is all over." Oh Gods he's enjoying the hell out of this little nut.
