There doesn't appear to be a manual, but the devices are less complex than the replicators from what I have observed so far. You will be better equipped to determine that.

I have a question for you. Kira calls you "Yuki". Do you prefer that, or 9S?

[twoaffirmations]

Oh, that's...kind of between us?
The nickname, I mean.

You can call me Nines if you want?

[reposing]

[oh. of course it is.

Not that it bothers him, but it does paint a specific picture for Alucard. He would not intrude upon that.]

If you don't mind that.

[twoaffirmations]

It's fine by me. People who knew me well back home would call me that.

[reposing]

Nines it is, then.

[twoaffirmations]

Yeah.

Uh... Alucard is all you go by, right?

[reposing]

It's the name I want you to use for right now.

[twoaffirmations]

[That means there's something else he's not telling him? That's kind of unfair...]

Okay...

[reposing]

That does not satisfy you.

[twoaffirmations]

[He's been called out!]

Well, no? You know mine, so...

[reposing]

I apologize. It must seem a bit unbalanced.

However, my name is a bit of a personal matter.
I hope that will change, with time.

[twoaffirmations]

Kind of, yeah.

I wonder what that means... But okay, I won't ask you about it for now.

[reposing]

I appreciate you resisting temptation.

[twoaffirmations]

It's pretty difficult, you know. I'm really curious.

[reposing]

I'm glad that you are. It says a lot about you as a person.

Let's make a deal, then. If Lapis takes me to the planet, then by the time I return I will tell you.

[twoaffirmations]

That sounds waaay too easy. What's the catch? Shouldn't I have to do something?

[reposing]

I think your patience is payment enough, Nines.

[twoaffirmations]

Yeah, yeah. This better be worth the wait.

[Or he will have words to say.]
