conversations.value: When we created nanotech, we marveled at our ingenuity. When we birthed the first AI, we applauded ourselves. 
  
  When we released the nanoplague, everything changed.
  
  The Pulse protects us to a point, but the streets aren't safe anymore. We barricade ourselves inside the arcologies, make what we can, and send Runners out to trade for -- or take -- the rest.
  
  We're all carriers now.
  
  [Carriers is a post-apocalyptic cyberpunk zombie game based on a setting I wrote for Jason Pitre's Spark RPG. It's serious in tone, and I expect people to be respectful.]

conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You've allowed Paloma's nanobots into your body, and she is now a part of you.

conversations.value: It's got the smart targeting system, mag rounds, and the optional black matte finish.
conversations.prefix: Sieger Mark IV:
conversations.from: gpt

conversations.prefix: Hero:
conversations.from: human

conversations.value: You're in love. In this city, is as often a bad thing as good.
conversations.prefix: Lovestruck:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You're playing both sides. Maybe you're in another arcology's pocket, or maybe you're playing two gangs off each other.
conversations.prefix: Double:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You want to cure the nanoplague. You don't even know if it can be done, but you want to try.
conversations.prefix: The Cure:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You've got a rival, someone you respect and who you're outwardly friendly with, but with whom you're at cross purposes.
conversations.prefix: Frenemies:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: That alarm means that the outer wall of the arcology has been breached. Only two things could be responsible: a rival arcology, or the zeds. Not sure which is worse.
conversations.prefix: Find Out What's Happening:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Your home. Rance Biotechnic was once the premier purveyor of gene therapy and nanotech augmentation. Now they're scraping by, like everyone else.

conversations.prefix: Help Kreuz:
conversations.from: human

conversations.value: It has unique properties. What is it doing to you, though?
conversations.prefix: Luma's Blood:
conversations.from: human
