[ Cisco's laughter is an immediate answer, when Rey brings up how Rey and BB-8 had met Finn. It had been a pretty great story, though he knows that the reality of it was probably a lot more stressful and uncertain at the time. Still, the mental image he has of it - Rey, with her staff, ferocious, and tiny round BB-8, egging her on, and poor Finn, utterly confused by the whole situation - is very funny. ]

He did.

[ He may have heard that anecdote, but what he doesn't know are the larger questions - and what better time to ask them than as he's arranging coal buttons for the snowman. ]

So droids are... they're artificial intelligence? Like you or me, with thoughts and feelings and identities, just in a body made of metal rather than bones and skin and stuff?

[ She'd said 'coding' which makes him think that's the case, but it doesn't hurt to be sure. Taako had told him lots of stories about robots that were essentially houses for the souls of the dead. BB-8 could be a being like that, or something else entirely. Or he could be like a version of JARVIS, or Gideon, just with a little round body to roll around in. ]
