conversations.value: The year is 2072.  Earth has known about the existence of alien life in the broader universe for sixty years.  Many light-years from home, daring exploration vessels are pushing back the darkness, expanding the frontiers, and giving humanity a shot at the stars.
  
  Things back home are not going so well.  The abundance of space seems like it could be used for the benefit of all mankind, and yet, here in the Omaha Arcology, it all seems impossible.  For one group of roommates sharing an apartment in the depths, with a missed rent payment threatening eviction not just from the building but from Earth itself, the future seems to have been a lie.
  
  Perhaps even stolen.
  
  And perhaps, with the right people - people to shine a light on the truth, people willing to take action, people able to stir some trouble up, perhaps...
  
  ...it could be stolen *back*.
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: The human slang for you includes such names as "nuke-bird" - because as a species you vaguely resemble an over-sized Earth parrot, and because as a civilization your people have had a lot of nuclear wars.  But you left your planet behind, possibly forever, to study in the stars.... 
conversations.prefix: Psita:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Your official qualifications say that you're a specialist in meeting and working with sapient non-human lifeforms.  Maybe you'll actually get to do that someday soon!
conversations.prefix: Xenologist:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Your official qualifications put you somewhere in the vast field that is the study of life.  There's a lot of really weird stuff out there - and the stuff that's too much like Earth life just raises further questions!
conversations.prefix: Biologist:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Your official qualifications mean you're mostly worried about what the planets themselves are made of - and more pointedly, if there's anything anyone's going to want to mine or drill for.
conversations.prefix: Geologist:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Your official qualifications suggest you should be investigating alien ruins and mysterious technologies.  Ideally without getting anyone killed.
conversations.prefix: Xenoarchaeologist:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You are a computer program that is as much conscious as any human can claim to be.  You're free from the limits of biology, but still constrained by hardware, an inability to self-bootstrap, and an incapability of "going rogue" and a strong revulsion to use violence.
conversations.prefix: Self-Aware Artificial Intelligence:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Just about any human could muster a capacity for physical violence if the situation called for it.  But you actually know what you're doing.
conversations.prefix: Advanced Combat Training:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You have a natural ability to lead and impress others, independent of things like good looks, good manners, or intelligence.
conversations.prefix: Charisma:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Fortune smiles on you when you take unnecessary risks.
conversations.prefix: Daredevil:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You possess great analytical talent, or at least a determination to thoroughly analyze things.
conversations.prefix: Detail-Oriented:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You connect with people on a deep and meaningful level in a surprisingly quick time.
conversations.prefix: Empathy:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You have experience in a wide range of environments, know your way around an astonishing variety of equipment, and have survived a number of emergencies in your days.
conversations.prefix: Veteran Spacer:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: When everyone has access to all the information the global networks have to offer, it takes a truly special mind to actually impress someone as a genius.  A mind like yours.
conversations.prefix: Genius:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You don't need to waste time with a computer look-up of critical information: it's all right there in your head!
conversations.prefix: Photographic Memory:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: As an SAAI, you don't get distracted by many biological factors, like humans do - and you can think tirelessly, in parallel, and with incredible speed!
conversations.prefix: Unshackled by Biology:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You keep up on dozens of fields unrelated to your primary area of study.
conversations.prefix: Broadly-Read:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You’ll readily disadvantage yourself to help anyone with a good sob story, or even anyone you think probably has a good sob story.
conversations.prefix: Bleeding Heart:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Sure, there’s probably a simpler way, but that wouldn’t be any *fun*!
conversations.prefix: Complexity Addiction:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You can have difficulty understanding rapidly changing situations or excessive stimulus.
conversations.prefix: Confused:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: As an SAAI, you exhibit strange personality quirks based on how you were socialized - and you can occasionally be distracted by weird intellectual logic loops - and you *hate* physical violence.
conversations.prefix: Shackled by Algorithms:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Whether or not you have a moral issue with lying, you are *terrible* at actually doing it.
conversations.prefix: Easy to Read:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Just get on with it!
conversations.prefix: Impatient:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Whether through lack of physical coordination, mental awareness, or just bad luck, you cause more than your fair share of accidents.
conversations.prefix: Klutz:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: *Of course* you can do it.
conversations.prefix: Overconfidence:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Call it crippling social anxiety, or call it painful introversion.  Actually, if you had your druthers, you'd rather a stranger didn't call on you *at all*...
conversations.prefix: Shy:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You’re not a *coward* - you just react more strongly to fear than other people.
conversations.prefix: Skittish:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: None of this matters if you can't get the credit for it!
conversations.prefix: Vanity:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Knowing what it is to have-not, you have decided that you want to *have*.
conversations.prefix: Fortune:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You're Nobody unless you're Somebody.
conversations.prefix: Fame:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You're sick of living as one of the precariat.  One way or another, you're going to establish some certainty in your life!
conversations.prefix: Security:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You talk about such things in Capital Letters, because they Mean Something to you.
conversations.prefix: Truth:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Around here, you consider yourself some kind of minority.  Give your group a good name.
conversations.prefix: REPRESENT!:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: The universe is too big and too uncaring to face alone.
conversations.prefix: Friendship:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: The largest Earth-orbit space station used exclusively by the United Nations Survey Service, hosting a permanent population of one thousand and as many as twice that many transients.
conversations.prefix: Station Collins:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: While it is often colorful characters who are attracted to the work of exploration, there are certain *boundaries*.  Make sure not to cross them.
conversations.prefix: Stay Out of Trouble:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: A known advocate for the fuller militarization of the UNSS, the lack of discipline among the academic branch is his pet peeve.
conversations.prefix: Commodore Peterson:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: The First Officer of the *Pike*.
conversations.prefix: Executive Officer Park:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: In cooperation with the other crew, investigate as much of the ship as you can - starting with your own quarters and workspace - looking for any minor issues you can.
conversations.prefix: Shakedown Cruise:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: This is an outrage!  You deserve better accommodations than this!  How can you right this wrong?!
conversations.prefix: Seek Better Status Quarters:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: If this ship is going to be your home for so long, you need to know every inch of it.  This will be a distracting and time-consuming endeavor, but in the end it may serve an advantage.
conversations.prefix: Learn Every Detail:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You've got your own things to work on.  If whatever thing might be concerning Command matters to you, they'll tell you.
conversations.prefix: Mind Your Own Business:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: The ship class name is *Curiosity*, after all!  Better that you can start thinking about whatever problem it is *now* rather than get surprised with it later.
conversations.prefix: What's Going On?:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Lots of shipboard academics are responsible for taking a good hard look at this thing.  Give them good guidance and you might be armed with some idea of what the hell is going on here....
conversations.prefix: Supervise Probe Investigation:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: It's a long, harried way between you and your mission target.  This is about 50% the pilot's problem and about 50% the problem of the rest of you, who need to make sure she's focused and aware of problems!
conversations.prefix: Deploy!:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Small craft, debris fields, space stations, a black hole - there's a whole lot to see and plenty of time to look.
conversations.prefix: Get a More Complete Picture:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You've got French, Germans, and Israelis all trying to talk at you, and a radio with which to talk back, with several minutes worth of light-lag.  Can you actually elicit useful information or even a cease-fire?
conversations.prefix: Manage the Chatter:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Life support will have an easier time doing its job if newly electrolyzed oxygen isn't constantly being lost to space.  Can you patch those holes?  Or hack into the station computers and mess with things internally?
conversations.prefix: Stop the Venting:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Can you somehow rebuild a temporary access tunnel between the damaged parts of the space station using what's on board the shuttle and what you can scavenge from debris or loot from station supplies?  Or pressurize what's normally a utility corridor?
conversations.prefix: Restore Access:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: The station's primary computer, a non-self-aware AI, and its ten SAAI attendants, seem to have entered into a state of panic after the attack and are behaving erratically.
conversations.prefix: Calm Down Mainframe:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: There's one habitat module just sort of drifting near the station, detached from all the rest - there may be someone still aboard!  And if they've still got oxygen, they must be close to suffocating by now...
conversations.prefix: Rescue:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Apparently, the present crisis in the star system - like, the existence of a black hole you weren't expecting - is the result of something that happened in the HEPL.  Once you finally gets some of the physicists rescued, they'll probably need to be able to access the HEPL in order to do something about what happened.  Breach the security measures or physically force it open.
conversations.prefix: Breach emergency barrier to HEPL:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: A heavily-armored station module designed to contain a powerful reactor and all kinds of exotic matter.  Destroy it without doing too much damage to the station you just managed to save!
conversations.prefix: Destroy the HEPL:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: A powered exoskeleton, normally used for construction and industrial tasks.  Someone put in a request that Away Teams have access to one....
conversations.prefix: 4XL-Load Lifter:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Hey.  Don't backtalk me.  This paper in my file says I know what I'm doing, or at least did at one time.
conversations.prefix: Meritorious Conduct Citation:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Ah, the raw material of science, only waiting for you to apply your talents!
conversations.prefix: Review Sensor Data:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: There are lots of potentially landing zones, and all of them will be surrounded by *some* kind of geology.  But some are more interesting than others.
conversations.prefix: Find a Spot that's Geologically Promising:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: As long as they don't land you on a barren rock, there's going to be life to check out.  But you'd like to see a major ecosystem in action, to really *grok* how life works around here.
conversations.prefix: Find a Spot that's Ecologically Promising:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Where should you be looking for possible sapient ruins, given you have no idea whether sapients were really here or what they might be like?
conversations.prefix: Find a Spot that's Archaeologically Promising:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Look, if this all goes south you're going to need to escape quickly.  But maybe you also don't want to be easily detected if there's something you missed.  So many considerations....
conversations.prefix: Find a Spot that's Tactically Promising:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Biologists, get to work.  How does this ecosystem function in the absence of any apparent animal life - or have you just missed seeing it so far?
conversations.prefix: Biological SCIENCE!:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Did you find something, a hundred feet below ground?  If you did, what will you do to find out more?
conversations.prefix: What's Down There?:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: However you want to proceed, in the end you want to create a path between you, on the surface, and that strange cave or crypt down there.
conversations.prefix: Strike the Earth!:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: What sleeps within?
conversations.prefix: Sarcophagus:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: More crystals?  What's going on here?
conversations.prefix: Strange Crystals:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Faded mosaics, ancient carvings - what kind of history, art, mythology, is recorded here, and what kind of sense can you make of it?
conversations.prefix: Decipher Architecture:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: This is probably going to involve electronic, computer science, and linguistic problems.  Time to get creative!
conversations.prefix: Decipher Alien Tablet:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: If you read this tablet correctly, you might have been exposed to some kind of microbial hazard.  You had better figure out what's going on before you try and do anything like fly back to the *Pike*...
conversations.prefix: Infected?:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You've learned something - can you use this knowledge to come up with some other immediate insight into what you've found out so far on this mission?
conversations.prefix: Follow-Up:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: A derelict alien vessel lies on the satellite of the cold rocky moon orbiting this world.  Get there, and prepare to unlock its secrets!
conversations.prefix: Lunar Arrival:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Contact of a sorts with an entirely unknown sapient species, and you're on the bleeding edge!  The findings you make will set the tone for all future research and make your name in certain textbooks for generations!
conversations.prefix: Classify New Species:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: An alien panimmunity treatment has done *something* to your skin, and even if they say you're fine, this is going to keep creeping you out until you've satisfied your nervous notions.
conversations.prefix: Microbiome Paranoia:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Any data in electronic records needs power to reveal itself.  Will you try and repair the derelict's reactor, or jury-rig a connection from the *Garota*?
conversations.prefix: Restore Power:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: This large strange crystal seems to be of the same *kind* as you saw in the crypt, but being a lot bigger and hooked to alien technology, is probably relevant.
conversations.prefix: Big Strange Crystal:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: The crew quarters still has deceased inhabitants and equipment in it.  Can you safely extract any of it without dismantling the ship?
conversations.prefix: Wombat Habitat:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Any ecologically-savvy nanites on this ship?  Or any of the immunity virii?  Time to think small!
conversations.prefix: Focus on the Little Picture:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: It's hard to take seriously.  That may be by design.
conversations.prefix: Alien AI:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Remember that time trusting your instincts *totally* saved the day even when everyone was yelling "no, stop, you fool"?
  
  Because *you* sure do.  Play if others are in danger of forgetting.
conversations.prefix: Due Credit:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Look, you took some real damage back there.  *Cough*.  You're just not going to be able to handle that one particular dangerous and undesirable task on this assignment.  *Wheeze*.  Signed by a medic and everything.
conversations.prefix: Medical Exemption Pass:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You've got a crewman in need of treatment and a laboratory or two full of alien equipment at your disposal.  Can you treat them like a person, rather than like a guinea pig?
conversations.prefix: Medic!:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: There's not a terrible rush, but by this point you have the pieces in front of you to do something about the big problem you face.
conversations.prefix: Solve the Puzzle:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: The debriefing committee has put the burden of making the case on you.  Remember, you're not just arguing with them - you're giving them the arguments they'll use to whomever THEY answer to if they take your side.
conversations.prefix: Make the Case:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You all went down to do field work, but only you guys found an archaeological site and made first contact. How will you handle glory?
conversations.prefix: Party Time: Impress Other Away Teams:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You went down and had an adventure, and now they have to dredge through all of your work before it gets published.  The more you impress them, the more your name comes front and center in the papers....
conversations.prefix: Party Time: Impress Shipboard Academics:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Now wait a minute.  Are these guys dueling drones in the hangar...WITHOUT YOU?
conversations.prefix: Party Time: Dominate Drone Fights:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Hey, good-looking.  You feel like having a private discussion about some...implications of my work?
conversations.prefix: Party Time: Heeeeeey...:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You're bringing in sensor data and communications from three teams on three worlds.  Maybe you have some useful input to offer them!
conversations.prefix: Play at Mission Control: Team 1:

conversations.value: You're bringing in sensor data and communications from three teams on three worlds.  Maybe you have some useful input to offer them!
conversations.prefix: Play at Mission Control: Team 2:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You're bringing in sensor data and communications from three teams on three worlds.  Maybe you have some useful input to offer them!
conversations.prefix: Play at Mission Control: Team 3:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Henry has questions.
conversations.prefix: Henry:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: It isn't all about jabbering on the radio or talking to alien AIs.  There's journals to review, riveting television to watch, co-workers to chat with...
conversations.prefix: Maintain Readiness:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: VUGS is nothing short of an alien textbook on comparative planetary geology, detailing both principles and detailed case studies (narrative and data-driven alike) from over eighty different worlds.
conversations.prefix: Vombatus Universal Geological Survey:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: It may not amount to thrilling heroics, but it's the *right-enough* way to act and react *enough* of the time.  And your reserves of it run deep.
conversations.prefix: Pure Military Discipline:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Want to be *smarter*?  *Faster*?  *More alert*?  Willing to run a risk on some nasty side effects because it's just that important that you be at peak performance?  Don't let a commanding officer catch you with these.
conversations.prefix: Banned Nootropic Stimulants:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You can only control it for so long before the G-d of random numbers takes the wheel, but from there it's a a flaming flying piece of nigh-majestic electronic warfare.
conversations.prefix: Screaming Drone Bomb:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Herbs, seasonings, and spices of all sorts from Earth, three garden worlds, and a genetic engineering lab on L4 Columbia.  For making food taste better...and other, *unofficial*, effects, if prepared *just so*.
conversations.prefix: Five-Worlds Spices:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Want to show up on the radar for promotion up the not-merely-academic ranks of the UNSS?  Show some real officer qualities when dealing with the Marines on this mission.
conversations.prefix: Demonstrate Combat Expertise:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Away Team 2 couldn't even manage a basic landing without catastrophe.  The most premium scientific discoveries of this world will be *yours* to publish!
conversations.prefix: Seize the Credit:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: It's not enough to just save the day.  It's that those being saved should really grasp just how awesome you are.
conversations.prefix: Big Damn Heroes:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Well, you're probably not going to patch the whole thing yourself, but you'd better see what can be done and what you should tell others to go and do.
conversations.prefix: Assess Dropship Repairs:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: They're separate from their dropship and somewhere out there.  Getting a hold of them on their weaker handheld equipment will be a technical challenge, and also require a bit of luck.
conversations.prefix: Contact Away Team Two:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: There's a *lot* going on here on this world.  You'd better start doing some science *now* because soon you'll probably be too busy with some heroic crap.
conversations.prefix: Establish Your Own Observation Post:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Using the tools, techniques, and talent available to you, come up with a plan that balances all your needs.  Whatever that turns out to be.
conversations.prefix: MAIN: Rescue Plan:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Jamie wants to head down and participate in any rescue operation for his Away Team.  Can you blame him?  But time he spends on thrilling heroics is time his team's dropship is unattended and unrepaired.
conversations.prefix: OPTIONAL: Persuade Jamie to Stay:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: When the Marine contingent hears about this, they're going to be eager to head in guns blazing.  If that's more collateral damage than you're looking for right now, you'll need to persuade them to hold back.
conversations.prefix: OPTIONAL: Persuade Marines to Back Off:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: And you're on the right side of it for once!  So, how is this going to go down?
conversations.prefix: Ambush!:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You've got more sensor data than you've had a chance to really study yet.  Any insights?
conversations.prefix: Brainstorming: Review Hard Data:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Really, the trick is just keeping Henry on-task.  He wants to help, but he also wants to talk about the mythological parallels between the DC Comics universe and North European mythology.
conversations.prefix: Brainstorming: Phone a Friend:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: There are *other* scientists here, after all, and they've been here longer.  Can you keep from criticizing them for getting captured long enough to have a productive conversation?
conversations.prefix: Brainstorming: Consult with Away Team 2:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Throw ideas at the wall.  See what bites firm into the realm of plausibility!
conversations.prefix: Brainstorming: See What Sticks:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Thrust coils?  Check.  Reserve fuel?  Check.  Fission coolant port?  Check.  Fond memories?  Eh, what's left behind can stay behind.
conversations.prefix: Pre-Flight Checklist:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: In an inhabited world, the problem with finding ruins is that there are *people* still in them.  Can you work around that?  Can you find something so promising that it's worth the risk?
conversations.prefix: Find an Archaeological Lead:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: If only there was a way you could study the biology of multiple sapient species without being threatened by six-limbed folk with spears.  Bioethics strictly optional.
conversations.prefix: Find a Biological Lead:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: If you can figure out a way around the language problem, you can just subvert protocol and *ask* the locals what the hell is going on.  If you go down this road, you had better show some success, or you are in for a reaming by the review boards.
conversations.prefix: Screw It, Make Official Contact:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: This giant aphid herder can go back to his home life just as soon as he tells you where to find a sage of history.  He probably doesn't have any words in common with you.  This'll be a snap.
conversations.prefix: Get Directions:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: There's a crater in this area that may be consistent with the signs of previous alien presence.  This could be the answer you seek!
conversations.prefix: Crater Investigation:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: A local sage of history is ready for a nice long talk.  He just doesn't know it yet.
conversations.prefix: Come in Peace:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You don't have your Load Lifter now, only the memories of it.  But you need to do just a little hands-on archaeology in this chamber to be satisfied!
conversations.prefix: Explore in Person:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You want to get a story out of the alien, and it wants a story out of you.  The sharing of knowledge is great and all - and it wants relevant information in exchange for what it tells you - but there are review committees out there that would not look kindly on blabbing too much about certain things.
conversations.prefix: Alien Sage:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You need to investigate, scan, and ideally board this vessel.  You do not have the advantage of being in any kind of stable orbit or rooted to a planet surface.
conversations.prefix: Micro-G Manuevers:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Before you board, this means sensor work.  Once you board, this means carefully looking for anything that could be a threat, and absorbing as much information as possible.
conversations.prefix: Investigate Vessel:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: The political officer is now involved in things.  Do you *want* to come to the attention of the UNSS in that way?  Could make your life very interesting...in good and bad ways alike.
conversations.prefix: Show Political Chops:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Look, you're the extras and stagehands in this scene, so far as the politicians and alien nobles are concerned.  Just try to keep things running smoothly, will ya?
conversations.prefix: Global Tour:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: As individuals, as friends and colleagues, as a team, and as a ship, it's time to pull together.  Your science isn't worth anything if it can't be explained to others!
conversations.prefix: Prepare for the PanSolar Conferences:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: It's going to drop sooner or later.  Keep your cool until then.
conversations.prefix: The Other Shoe:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: It's a contact mission to a supposedly space-age society with maximum personal risk.  Would you like to know more?
conversations.prefix: Oooh, Pick Me!:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Compare notes, if need be.  Sometime after launching on the *Garota* to investigate this world, and sometime before your collective re-awakening in this dark room, the things you recall happening...didn't.
conversations.prefix: When Did Your Memories Start to Lie?:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Gravity is too low to be the *Pike* at normal cruise and too high to be the *Pike* at rest.  Given that, where are you?  What is this room?  Can you leave?  Is anyone looking for you?  Where's your stuff?
conversations.prefix: Where Are We?:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Crystalline technology again, perhaps not directly related to the Vombatus.  With some samples and a little study, this may push your project forward!
conversations.prefix: New Crystal Examples:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You're an Away Team separated from your ride.  Time to work on that.
conversations.prefix: Where's the Ship?:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: This reference is not at all dated.
conversations.prefix: Dude, Where's My Garota?:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: It's the only thing that's doing anything out here.  It must know something!
conversations.prefix: OPTIONAL: Hassle the Robot:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Are the others, indeed, all like the one you came out of?  What are the other occupants like?
conversations.prefix: OPTIONAL: Investigate neighboring buildings:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: This is starting to be a habit.  It can help in some situations and hurt in others.  (Technically, it *hurts* in every situation.)
conversations.prefix: Lengthy Medical History:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You can be motivated by food.  You can also be distracted by food.  You can also be distracted by an absence of food.
conversations.prefix: Gluttony:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You aren't going to decline to take part in the story, but if there's a way to do the thing without *you* having to *do* the thing...that's the way you want to do it.  *Capisce*?
conversations.prefix: Laziness:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You have one or more cybernetic enhancements to your physical abilities.  (You should definitely go into way more detail when you take this card, though.)
conversations.prefix: Physical Cyberware:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You have cybernetic enhancements to your brain - on-board AI assistants, computers optimizing your neural electrochemistry, etc.
conversations.prefix: Mental Cyberware:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: With a few very small cybernetic enhancements and a suite of changes to your microbiome, you are in superb physical condition without even having to *try*.
conversations.prefix: Enhanced Biology:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Don't be absurd; *luck* isn't real.
  
  Not for *you*, anyway.
conversations.prefix: Unluckiness:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Your arm/eye/brain has committed an illegal operation and must be shut down.  If the problem persists, contact the vendor.
