Stones of farspeech; within a day of the intro log

[conscientiousobject]

This is very sudden, and perhaps badly timed, for which I apologise.

[He really hopes he's not wasting the time of people trapped in rockslides or something, but--well, he would also hope someone trapped in a rock slide would be focusing on that and not. This.]

But I've just... returned to this place after a long absence and I've been informed there are other robots here now?

Is this true?

My name is Epsilon, and I am--was? Am. A robot myself.

So if anyone who can hear me has any kind of AI, or a similar form of existence... at your convenience, I'd like to speak with you! It's been a long time since I've known any others.

.... also, if you do need help, Ginko and I are able to move a great deal of earth between us, so please say something.

And what am I, chopped liver?

[forwearemany]

(The voice that answers is so obviously mechanical it's painful.)

Greetings Epsilon. We are Legion, relict of the Geth.

[in4apounding]

[Very, very cautiously.]

Are- um. Are there? You. ...Robots, I mean? ...Would that be a good thing?

[Nailed it.]

[counterblows]

Your name is...Epsilon.

[Oh, boy. That's not going to get horribly confusing any time soon.]

[vagabone]

[This is fine, really. Well, no, it's boring as hell and he did get bashed around a little, but other people are much worse off!! What with the needing to breathe and drink and eat and all.

At least he has his... rock-radio for company.]

Oh, cool, another robot. [He's not being sarcastic, it's a little on the cool side.] Hey, you met Ginko already?

[ Epsilon. It's Epsilon. Good lord. She thought Epsilon was gone. But in these places, did it matter whether someone was dead or not?

She never interacted with Epsilon, so she doesn't realize this isn't the voice he had used after his recovery. She doesn't know anything about that. So she replies. ]

What happened to you?

[eudaimonikos]

Oh! My best friend is - well, she's not a robot, but she's definitely an artificial entity. She's a Janet.

Also, I'm trapped in a buried house.

[motherfucking_ghost]

Oh! Uhhhh. That's cool. That's really--that's awesome, that's cool, love meeting other robots. [And AI stuffed into robots! But that's still...touchy.] You've been here before? How'd you leave?

And, hey, has um, has an Agent Washington talked to you yet? Maybe made an entire asshole out of himself?

[technicallytechnically]

You're a robot! Wait, are you like, a killer robot, or are you like...

[She tries very, very hard to think of... literally any other type of robot. Unfortunately, she's not from season one, so she's not very experienced with automatons of any type.

She's met one. It was not very eloquent.]

...uh, another type of robot that's really calm and nice and not covered in knives? You seem like a robot that wouldn't be covered in knives. But if you are, that's fine, I don't judge you know.

[deathfindsaway]

Can you explain how you were a robot? Forgive me if that's an intrusive question.

[The voice pauses for a moment, then returns as if it forgot something.]

Are you from Ginko's world?
