text: > look around
  The scent of your house is strong here, and you are right next to its front door. You can't see far because it is so dusty here. Ominous clouds of dust loom on the ever-darkening horizon.
  
  PLANET SURFACE -> STATUS : TRUE
  
  > Smell
  It smells like the outdoors here. From a long way off you smell the stench of a man. Interestingly, you detect the enthralling bouquet of a female dog carried across the park by the wind. The reassuring smell of home is a hop, lick, and a bark away.
  
  ROVER -> CHEMOSENSOR : TRUE
  
  > go to female dog
  You trot off in that direction.
  
  You are outside.
  
  You can see a lump of rock here.
  
  ROBOTIC BULLDOZER -> SELECT : TRUE
  
  > Smell
  It smells dry and stale here. From a considerable distance you smell the stale funk of a man. Interestingly, you detect the entertaining fragrance of a female dog wafting enticingly from not too far away. The pleasant smell of home is two shakes of a tail from here.
  
  ROVER -> CHEMOSENSOR : TRUE
  
  > look at the rock
  You taste the rock. Not edible. Not a bone. Not interesting.
  
  LEAD ORE -> DIAGNOSTIC : TRUE
  
  > go to female dog
  You let your nose lead the way.
  
  A dug-up field pockmarked by small holes and accompanying mounds of dirt.
  
  You can see some paw marks here.
  
  ROBOTIC BULLDOZER -> SELECT : TRUE
  
  > look at the paw marks
  Paw marks from a medium-sized dog. From the look of the field, they must belong to a dog that either likes digging or was trying to find something important buried around here.
  
  BULLDOZER TRACKS -> DIAGNOSTIC : TRUE
  
  > Dig
  You dig for a while with your front paws. Finding nothing, you kick the dirt back in again so you won't be blamed for digging up the yard.
  
  ROVER -> EXCAVATE : TRUE
  
  > Smell
  It smells of freshly turned soil here. From a ways off you smell the odor of a man. Interestingly, you detect the riveting perfume of a female dog coloring the air with its lovely scent from only a short run away. The heartening smell of home is a short run from here.
  
  ROVER -> CHEMOSENSOR : TRUE
  
  > go to the female dog
  Trot, trot, trot.
  
  A long, dark furrow scars the ground in this part of the park.
  
  You can see a long furrow here.
  
  ROBOTIC BULLDOZER -> SELECT : TRUE
  
  > look at the furrow
  On your muzzle, you can feel heat radiating from the furrow walls, which are shiny and black. On the walls and floor of the trench, you can see some scratches that look like they could have been made by dog paws.
  
  TRENCH -> DIAGNOSTIC : TRUE
  
  > Smell furrow
  The long furrow smells like freshly poured tar.
  
  TRENCH -> CHEMOSENSOR : TRUE
  
  > scratch it
  You achieve nothing by this.
  
  TRENCH -> NEUTRALIZE CHARGE : TRUE
  
  > search it
  The long furrow is empty.
  
  TRENCH -> MANIFEST : NIL
  
  > go to the female dog
  Your legs carry you as fast as they can.
  
  A wide-open plain extends in all directions, as far as the dust permits you to see. It sure would be easy to get lost in this part of the park.
  
  You can see a female dog here.
  
  ROBOTIC BULLDOZER -> SELECT : TRUE
  
  > examine the female dog
  Your heart catches in your throat as you stand in her glorious presence. Graceful, athletic, and possessed of a noble bearing, she smites you with a glance down her long, fine muzzle. In her sensual mouth, she is provocatively carrying a bone almost as big as she is.
  
  ROBOTIC BULLDOZER -> DIAGNOSTIC : TRUE
  
  > examine the bone
  It is the biggest, juiciest bone you've ever seen. You envy the bone, which is clamped between the bewitchingly white teeth of the female dog.
  
  SPACE PROBE -> DIAGNOSTIC : TRUE
  
  > take the bone
  It is a nice bone...but how would she feel if you just took it? She might find that playful, but then again, she might take it the wrong way. She might like resent such a bold move, uninvited. On the other hand, she could be secretly wishing that you'd make the first move. It might be just the right thing. It could also be a dreadful mistake though. You might come across as greedy and pushy. Not the sort of impression you'd like to make... Um. What were you thinking about? You forget.
  
  SPACE PROBE -> SELECT : NIL
  
  > Pet female
  You shift a little closer to her and nonchalantly drape your tail near her, but a gust of wind pushes it away.
  
  ROBOTIC BULLDOZER -> SYNCH : TRUE
  
  > examine the female
  Your eyes are drawn to her perfectly rounded shoulders and haunches, her long arcing tail, and her soft, pendulous ears. You avert your gaze so as not to appear overly forward. In her amorous mouth, she is agilely carrying a bone.
  
  ROBOTIC BULLDOZER -> DIAGNOSTIC : TRUE
  
  > look at the ears
  Rover is covered from nose to tail with white fur dotted with black splotches.
  
  ROVER MODULES -> DIAGNOSTIC : TRUE
  
  > Mount female
  You're not even on your second date with her! Better keep your paws to yourself.
  
  ROBOTIC BULLDOZER -> MOUNT : TRUE
  
  > Kiss female
  The very thought makes your canine heart scramble like a greased xihuahua in free fall.
  
  ROBOTIC BULLDOZER -> INTERFACE : NIL
  
  > Smell
  It smells barren and lifeless here. From not too far away you smell the stench of a man. Interestingly, you detect the engrossing aroma of a female dog at muzzle's distance from you. The cheerful smell of home is getting fainter.
  
  ROVER -> CHEMOSENSOR : TRUE
  
  > go to the man
  You scuttle forth.
  
  You are right outside a dilapidated shack, which has clearly been neglected. A gust of wind lifts a sheet of dust and rains it down on you.
  
  MYOMITA AI -> SELECT : TRUE
  
  > examine the shack
  The shabby shack could use more than a coat of paint. The walls are bent at strange angles, and the door is askew. Ominous clouds of dust loom on the ever-darkening horizon.
  
  -> DIAGNOSTIC : TRUE
  
  > open the shack
  That's not something you can open.
  
  -> ACCESS : NIL
  
  > go inside
  You can't go that way.
  
  ROVER -> SELECT : NIL
  
  > look at the door
  A heavy plastrex door hangs loosely in the door frame, tenuously attached by one frail hinge. The door swings wildly in the wind.
  
  DAMAGED AIRLOCK -> DIAGNOSTIC : TRUE
  
  > enter door
  You walk into the tumbledown shack. There is a man here who looks old and grumpy. Like your home, this place has a sleeping room and an eating room. It looks like you've walked right into the sleeping room.
  
  The man yells at you and you tuck your head down. "Blah, blah, blah!" He doesn't seem to move though. Maybe he can't move.
  
  Nope. No movement. Hmph. You don't feel so afraid of him.
  
  You can see a pink pillow here.
  
  DAMAGED AIRLOCK -> ACTIVATE : NIL
  
  > examine man
  The man seems flat like a rug, rather than round like a ball. He makes a lot of noise, but he doesn't move around at all. He just stays up against one wall. Boy, does he seem mad, "Blah, out, blah, blah, dog!"!
  
  MYOMITA AI -> DIAGNOSTIC : TRUE
  
  > take the man
  I don't suppose the smelly man would care for that.
  
  MYOMITA AI -> SELECT : NIL
  
  > smell man
  The smelly man smells unbearable at this close range. It is like something out of a nightmare: a combination of mouthwash, carpet cleaner and air fresheners. Entirely sickening.
  
  MYOMITA AI -> CHEMOSENSOR : TRUE
  
  > look at the pillow
  A puffy, pink pillow with a pretty design on it: a red ball, with radiating red and white rays.
  
  NPT -> DIAGNOSTIC : TRUE
  
  > remember npt
  That doesn't ring a bell.
  
  ROVER -> DATA_FETCH : NIL
  
  > go to the eating room
  You eagerly scamper that way.
  
  The room has big cold box just like the eating room in your home. It's less loud in this room, but you can hear the man in the other room yelling, "Blah, blah, Myomita, blah, blah, blah, Earth, blah, blah, dog, blah, blah!". On the floor, there are two dishes.
  
  You can see a food dish (in which is some canned food) and a water dish (in which is some crystal clear water) here.
  
  LOCATION -> SELECT : TRUE
  
  > examine the food dish
  The other dog's metal food dish smells much better than yours.
  
  FUEL RESERVOIR -> DIAGNOSTIC : TRUE
  
  > smell it
  The food dish smells unremarkable.
  
  FUEL RESERVOIR -> CHEMOSENSOR : NIL
  
  > take it
  Nope, the food dish is stuck to the ground. So much for going home with a "doggie bag".
  
  FUEL RESERVOIR -> SELECT : NIL
  
  > examine the water dish
  The other dog's plastic water dish looks much better than yours.
  
  COOLANT RESERVOIR -> DIAGNOSTIC : TRUE
  
  > take it
  You can't. It seems to be part of the ground.
  
  COOLANT RESERVOIR -> SELECT : NIL
  
  > go to sleeping
  You bound away towards your goal.
  
  The smelly man's house is boring. The only furniture in the room is a pullout sofa. In one direction lies the eating room, in the other, the door that leads back to the park. The smelly man is still here and carrying on, "Blah, blah, blah, dog, blah, bad!"
  
  You ignore him.
  
  You can see a pink pillow here.
  
  LOCATION -> SELECT : TRUE
  
  > take the pillow
  You take the pink pillow in your mouth.
  
  NPT -> SELECT : TRUE
  
  > go to the female dog

  You are right outside a dilapidated shack, which has clearly been neglected. The wind picks up, making it even more difficult to see.

  You bound away towards your goal.
  
  A wide-open plain extends in all directions, as far as the dust permits you to see. It sure would be easy to get lost in this part of the park.
  
  You can see a female dog here.
  
  ROBOTIC BULLDOZER -> SELECT : TRUE
  
  > give the pillow to her
  The pink pillow does not impress her, and it falls to her feet. No doubt she has many suitors.
  
  NPT -> DELIVER : NIL
  
  > Dig
  You dig for a while with your front paws. Finding nothing, you kick the dirt back in again so you won't be blamed for digging up the yard.
  
  ROVER -> EXCAVATE : TRUE
  
  > examine the female dog
  You glance at her slyly while pretending to survey the ground near her feet. The fine columns of her legs rise magnificently from the ground, standing proudly atop her perfectly trimmed paws. The fur on her legs is bristly, and you wonder what it would be like to rub against it. Distractedly, your gaze drifts over her until a blowing clod of dust ricochets off your head, cutting short your reverie. In her angelic mouth, she is elegantly carrying a bone.
  
  ROBOTIC BULLDOZER -> DIAGNOSTIC : TRUE
  
  > Rub female
  You get the impression that she's not ready for that.
  
  ROBOTIC BULLDOZER -> SYNCH : TRUE
  
  > climb her
  I don't think much is to be achieved by that.
  
  ROBOTIC BULLDOZER -> SELECT : NIL
  
  > get on her
  You are already close enough to the female dog.
  
  ROBOTIC BULLDOZER -> ACTIVATE : NIL
  
  > look at the pillow
  A puffy, pink pillow with a pretty design on it: a red ball, with radiating red and white rays.
  
  NPT -> DIAGNOSTIC : TRUE
  
  > open it
  That's not something you can open.
  
  NPT -> ACCESS : NIL
  
  > take it
  You carefully take hold of the pink pillow with your teeth.

  The smelly man's house is boring. The only furniture in the room is a pullout sofa. In one direction lies the eating room, in the other, the door that leads back to the park. The smelly man is still here and carrying on, "Bad dog! Blah!"
  
  You ignore him.
  
  DAMAGED AIRLOCK -> ACTIVATE : NIL
  
  > examine the sofa
  The sofa looks wrong somehow, like maybe it's broken. It is more or less unfolded and looks even bigger than Janet's futon.
  
  CASIMIR DRIVE -> DIAGNOSTIC : TRUE
  
  > search it
  There is nothing on the pullout sofa.
  
  CASIMIR DRIVE -> MANIFEST : NIL
  
  > close it
  That's not something you can close.
  
  CASIMIR DRIVE -> DEACCESS : NIL
  
  > smell it
  The pullout sofa smells musty, like a wet dog. On the whole, not a bad smell at that.
  
  CASIMIR DRIVE -> CHEMOSENSOR : TRUE
  
  > get on it
  You get onto the pullout sofa.
  
  CASIMIR DRIVE -> ACTIVATE : NIL

  Sleeping Room (on the pullout sofa)
  The smelly man's house is boring. The only furniture in the room is a pullout sofa. In one direction lies the eating room, in the other, the door that leads back to the park. The smelly man is still here and carrying on, "Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah!"
  
  You ignore him.
  
  LOCATION -> STATUS : TRUE
  
  > stand
  You get off the pullout sofa.
  
  ROVER -> DEACTIVATE : TRUE
  
  > hit the man
  You're not really supposed to attack people unless they are a threat. This smelly old windbag is loud and malodorous, but so are suborbital shuttles, and you leave them alone. So, you let him rant on while you go about your business.
  
  MYOMITA AI -> OFFENSE MODE : TRUE
  
  > listen to the man
  You hear the ongoing rantings of the old, flat man on the wall. The more he blathers on, the more you tune him out.
  
  MYOMITA AI -> AUDIO INPUT : TRUE
  
  > examine wall
  Dingy walls that might have once been white but are now a mottled brown color.
