You wouldn't be the first to come in and find out there's been some pretty extensive changes to your biology. Though, uh... [this is going to be so impolite, but she's thinking he couldn't blame her.] If you haven't got a... okay. None of my business.

[She's getting kind of distressing mental images here. Moving right along.]

Bare-bones help wouldn't be the first unexpected thing we get here. Sometimes it looks like the admin's honestly trying to help. Other times...

[ HAHA... he can hazard a guess for how bizarre human biology is. ] guess i'll find out what other changes there are when i see 'em, no bones about it.

admin's kinda running the game here, yeah. [ and they appear to be unwitting players. ] have they really tried to help before? seems like most people here are pretty wary of them.

[Oh whew, very glad not to have stuck her foot in her mouth there.] Don't bust your skull too badly over it. Just be aware, things could be pretty different from what you're used to. Don't wanna find out any special ability's been removed just when you need it most. Trust me.

[Man, does she miss being able to toss gravity-altering mass effects around.]

They sure claim to be trying. Sometimes they're happy to share information, other times, it's all classified... you find the beacon application on your tablet yet? The Admin told us to turn it on to avoid poisoning effects, except that turns out to attract some pretty dangerous creatures. They don't seem aware of that. So sometimes it's like they've got no idea what's happening at all. [Her lips tighten in anger.] Or they don't care.

yeah, looks like all the fancy moves have been powered off for this one. guess admin wants us all to be at the same level. pretty egalitarian of them, i guess. even my special attack isn't as effective... there goes my ace up the sleeve. [ #op problems ]

and no i haven't seen that app yet. i need to bone up on all this tech. a monster-attracting feature is definitely new to me.

... you were talking about monsters, were you? [ these dangerous creatures. ]

SORRY I'M OUT OF PUNS T_T

I'd settle for any old regular attack. Even just a gun would be nice. Just in case... [Moment of brief cathartic violent fantasies over, she clears that up:] But I don't see what any of us have got to gain from fighting anyone else here. If that's what it takes to guarantee that, I'll take it over the other option.

[She thinks a bit about the answer to the next one, because she sees the catch here.] That's what people call them. Monsters is a big word, though. I'd rather know what they are than write them off like that.
