"Oh yeah, Mr Bradley, transferring someone's mind into a computer digitized version of themselves is a bit trickier than just moving them from a cubical to an office, so I had assumed that there would be a bit of orientation on the new environment beyond 'Oh look...now you have a door AND a window!'..." Marissa laughed lightheartedly as she gazed at the new world around her.  In comparison to the 'real word' things seemed much more surreal, not just in colors and textures, but in their total lack of the little things - dings in perfection like peeled paint, dust, scuff marks on the floor and such.<br/><br/>She smiled coyly as he accessed the holo interface.  "Not all interfaces, it seems..." she stated as she watched him type.  "A friend of mine had modified some of the features of my current OS to work with a touch screen that he got from a restaurant as my meat body only has one hand.  Keyboards kinda sucked for me until now."  she held up a hand as if wanting to touch the interface but knew better.  "Granted, his hacks are nowhere near the beauty of what you have here, but after a bit of adjustment to the touchscreen, even if the docs found a way to fix me back, I was planning to keep on using my setup."  She shook her head and smiled.  "So far, the world you have made seems right up my alley, although I do hope that you have more in the lines of transportation than tanks or feet...I mean from what you have just said, this world is pretty dangerous and I can see why the tanks are essential, especially with Programs lacking true human emotion and reasoning, but I have to admit to being a klutz behind the wheel.  Every car I have ever owned has met with its fair share of dings while my bikes - my one accident notwithstanding - have never run into anything."<br/><br/>Marissa's awe grew as she stepped out into the city proper, "Testing limits is my daily bread, Mr. Bradley, and danger is the butter that I melt on it."  She shot him a mischievous smile.  "I've always downplayed that at the office before so that I would not spook the other code monkeys, but now that work and play are coming together for me in your little world here, I place myself completely at your disposal for whatever task you assign."  she looked out at the looming buildings.  "Will I be working with others that you have tapped, or is this  fend-for-yourself gig?"  Her eyes narrowed as she lowered her gaze toward the guards, wondering if there were ways to spot a corrupted program before he or she tried to kill her.
