Seems a mix of regional accents and responses: the "yeaaah" perhaps very Southern Californiia, and her "Is that so?" has a more typical British inflection.

Blink rate appears fairly normal, but the speed with which the lids close is a bit slow, as if partly volitional.

hahaha, "yeeeeaaaah".

I like it, it's better than Alice. Thank you.

Darn good... but Poopy says 'yeah' too often, and few times saw her respond with that 'yeah' before you completed the statement. In the pauses, she stays quite blank and emotionless. But what the hell... what she can do right now, is just astounding!! Keep up the good work.
