[ Elijah Kamski doesn't normally entertain guests. The amount of reporters, interloper and yes, even police officers, that have tried to gain access to his home throughout the years are in the dozens, and it's likely that only the remoteness of his home that keeps the media dogs from camping outside his door now that androids are free. Everyone wants to hear his opinion, as if it mattered. As if he had any say in whether or not androids should be treated like people.
It's true he had more than nothing to do with that, but admitting it on live TV wouldn't change a thing. Kamski has always been content to keep to himself, to observe and let things play out now that he has shaped the world in his image. After all, God Himself doesn't intervene in the lives of humans, why should he become involved with what happens next to his androids?
There are exceptions, of course. Chloe remained with him, his first and favorite model. She knew him better than anyone, and he'd certainly handed her a gun and told her to shoot, but she hadn't. And if Markus himself came knocking, Kamski would happily meet with him, though Markus seemed to know well enough that his path was theirs alone, not their god's. And naturally, Connor, who had gone from deviant hunter to a deviant himself, whose empathy was a part of him long before he marched out of CyberLife. He was fascinating. A road through which the beauty of his code, his freedom, could truly flourish.
The truth is Kamski is curious too. No other android had the advanced technology he did, no other android had more reason to side with his masters. And yet Connor had, despite even CyberLife's attempts to hijack him, fought back.
He's fascinating. Inviting him over should prove to be illuminating. ]
Connor, how nice to see you.
[ Yes, indeed, things have changed. Kamski answers the door himself for once, though he's likely only giving Connor the courtesy because he's Connor. He's even dressed, though a billionaire should probably dress in more than just jeans, a jacket and a t-shirt, but it's obvious by the lack of socks that Kamski has nowhere else to go today.
Then again, the fact that he manages to sound so ominous and still retain such presence even in his casual clothes does say something about the man. ]
Come in. [ He motions him inside. ] I've been expecting you.
