Sixth Blade
*The video opens up not to Jin, but to Veemon clearing his throat.*
Ah-hem. If I could get people's attention for a moment, I have a problem. You see, my human has decided that he needs something to call me other than Veemon. This would be all fine and dandy except for one little thing: he has horrible taste in nicknames! So someone tell Jin that Reuben is the name of a sandwich, not a mighty dragon sorcerer.
*In the background, Jin has walked up behind Veemon and is standing with his arms crossed.*
It also happens to be the name of both my preferred mobile weapon and a significant Biblical figure.
It's a sandwich, and if you start calling me that I'm gonna be hungry all the time.
I don't see how that's very different from normal.
No, you see, right now I'm a little hungry all the time. If you call me by the name of a sandwich I'll be a lot hungry all the time.
*Jin sighs and shakes his head.*
You should be honored that I want to name you after a craft like the Reuben. But if it's that much of a problem...I suppose I could go back to the drawing board.
Uhhhh...why do I have a bad feeling about that?

If anything, the sandwich might have been named after the same figure as the Reuben.

Did someone mention food? I'm hungry, Marley! And you need to eat anyway!
[Thanks, Hawkmon.]
[Video]
*Sigh.*
I'm fairly certain the name predates sandwiches as a concept, let alone that specific type.
[Video]
Wait, were we not talking about food? Forget it, I'm going to the cafeteria!
O-Oh, okay Hawkmon. I'll see you in a bit?
Okay! [And there's the sound of a door closing. Hawkmon's gone.]

For ESes like Reuben, it's a little bit different. I'm not sure how exactly to describe it, but there's an element of connection between the pilot and machine. Only certain people can operate them at all, but those they do respond to can almost treat them like an extension of themselves. It's...sort of like we're transmitting our will to the craft, so we can control them to a degree that would be impossible with a normal operating system.

And I wouldn't be so quick to assume something doesn't have a soul just because it's man made. I've met a few artificial intelligence based entities that I suspect would take offence.
[voice]
Zohar, huh... What entity is this? A god?
[voice]
*Of course, the android is a special case, but he doesn't know that yet.*
U-DO...some believe it to be a god, yes. Personally, I'm not quite so sure He is that easy to define, but it is certainly a possibility.
[voice]
"U-DO"? Whoever named it needs to be fired. I'd like to meet it, though.
[voice]
And...about meeting U-DO. *His voice grows melancholy, tinged with loss.* I wouldn't recommend it. My...I knew someone once who was capable of communicating with it. The resulting stress caused her to grow ill and eventually fall into a coma.
[voice]
Then I can talk to it without communicating face-to-face. If you've got a gate to it, can't you just chuck a message in a bottle in?
