Sometimes hard decisions are necessary. I don't know enough about the circumstances.

It does. So long as you believe that those who upload still have consciousness. That people like myself have consciousness. Then... it's still possible to die.
... I don't know if I'm the person for that kind of question since I'm not learned. [ To be a techy. ] But you feel all that people should, don't you? Nothing less.
That's right. Even when I had neural algorithms for emotions that didn't quite match the world yet, I still felt those feelings. Just in a slightly different way.
No one is born the same, so it would make sense that it would be different for you, even if I don't quite understand your circumstances.

... Even if you had less, that wasn't your choice. I think.
The world I came to live in didn't exist. No one else like me existed yet. But I also couldn't exist in the physical world the same way normal people could. So I couldn't really be nostalgic for it the right way. There was no way to even imagine interfacing with the past, because it was impossible.
I don't think that's strange, personally. Nostalgia is a feeling and people feel nostalgic when they listen to music or when they see art, even if they're pieces they've never heard or seen.
I suppose... They're remembering something similar, or simply the emotion is similar. [ He doesn't know. ] Either way, you came with it. It wouldn't be there if you weren't meant to know what it feels like.

[ this is such a nice way of thinking about it... he is so nice to her. ]
It was nostalgia. I had the... feeling of it. But there was no past for me to be nostalgic for. Not the same way embodied people have.
So I just missed the future instead. I missed people and places that didn't exist yet.

That didn't... Exist yet?

I always felt it. [ he's right about that. ] But now I feel it for the right things. For time spent with family in the past, or days that are gone.

Nothing... happens to them in particular. They just live out their afterlives.

But as far as existence goes, you carry on the same as you would alive. There's just less... External conflict in a place like Heaven.
