...ah. Disposable. Cole's frown deepens slightly as he looks over at 9S, picks out that particular hurt, dying over and over again, memories changed and wiped, only for 9S to gain new memories and the process starts all over again. Someone could die and come back. Corypheus did it. Those in the Hunt did it. 9S can do it as well.
"But you do matter," Cole murmurs, looking over at 9S. "YoRHa might not think so, looking down on everyone from their perch, ants in an anthill. But the ants matter to other ants." 9S mattered to 2B. 9S mattered to Rita. 9S mattered to Cole.
There's a small pause before Cole continues. "I'm sorry they hurt 2B. I'm sorry they hurt you." He's not going to say what he hopes, that it won't happen again, because part of Cole worries it will. He won't make promises he can't keep.
