Re: [Day 6 MM] Time For Venting (Expecting)

"With Luci and I, wherever we might be." Jan waves airily. "I've considered a flying palace, a secret underwater base, maybe a stealth equipped ship silently circling the core. We'll probably move a lot." Reflecting on the words after they're said aloud. "...We may need to find somewhere near childr...

"Yes, you should learn the tale of Vera Hawke".
Was it possible for an AI to lose sapience? They could find out.

"It would be wonderful if you'd be open to communication after we leave, why, if you communicate with people then they'll know not to come and bother you.

Re: Wampa Whompin'

Jan's happy to let it stay sealed (or semi-sealed) for a while, although also deeply saddened she won't be able to test out her new gun yet. Also happy to remain in contact with the thing should she ever need to leverage it in the future.

Happy to do a patrol or base renewal (hydroponics).

Jan is good at anything that takes agility and okay at perception/vigilance and most social skills.

"Overly lecture?"
Jan arches an eyebrow.

"That sounds tiresome, is the child stupid? If imparting information requires an overly long lecture I shall just purchase a droid to do so. I don't have enough time in my day to waste repeating myself. All the more reason to adopt a smart child I think."
