Of course. [He brings up a hand, considering for a moment before adjusting his mask to gesture to it.]

What do these things really represent? I mean...I got it. I got that a lot of them are indications of what we are or things we've done. [He understood that due to research with his friends. The masks with the bloody finger prints, the blood dripping down them, some of the others made sense, too, but a barcode still makes little sense to him in terms of who he is. He's not an object. Not really.] I just want to understand where they came from and how they affect how we communicate with you. Is...that too much?

[Are the masks functioning to block the signal from the implants like the glasses he's made? He's curious about that, too.]
