Thank you for not taking offense. [Not that many people are offended by the less tactful things that Chekov says—the wide-eyed sincerity has a way of diffusing hostility—but he likes knowing that he didn't irritate Lelouch within a minute of meeting him.]
Maybe you can enjoy this even if the circumstances are far from ideal—the circumstances of our physical bodies more than of our minds. [Has someone already given him a briefing on the whole virtual reality thing?] I imagine that there are worse prisons.
