1. Do you wish that you had any freaking clue what was going on when you first showed up here?
2. Isn't it time we started sharing information?
3. Do you have an opinion that nobody cares about?

If you answered 'yes' to any of the above questions (except for the third one), then congratulations, you win the responsibility of assisting me! My name is Rhys and I want to start compiling info so we can start helping each other out and maybe give the new people something to do other than crap their pants when they're screamed at by jelly monsters.

I can program a startup message that can display a welcome guide or info or something the first time a phone is booted up. Hope said he can install it in all future phones too. But unfortunately, I'm one of the recent arrivals to this murdercave and I don't know a lot. That's where you guys come in!

So, give me info, like:

• What the hell is going on. In layman's terms.
• Where people can go to live or whatever.
• p̢̀́͡0͟f̸̵̢̕͟s͏̢ ͏̧̛o̶̸̴̡͞ ̴̕͝k̶͟҉ì͡L͡L̶̕͡͡ ̸̴̨̧͞t҉̧͟͞h̸͜$͜͏̡͜͡$̴̧́̕ ̵̕͘̕ì̕͟d̸҉͢͞0̛͡0̶̶͡͡0̵͢҉t̡̛̀͝͡ good scavenging stuff is.
• What we know about the, uh, supreme beings of this place.
• How to work the damn microwaves.

That... You know that doesn't excuse anything, right? I mean, you're still partially responsible for anything heinous that Hyperion was a part of.

I didn't exactly pull the triggers you know.

That was weird.

Anyway I'm just a desk jockey. You want to blame someone, take it to my boss, Handsome Jack.

Oh wait, you can't, because he was murdered by bandits.

I rest my case.

[cowardley]

Still does not negate your responsibility. "I was just taking orders" is a crappy excuse.

Also, is your phone hacked or something?

[hybridification]

Must be a glitch from when I tried to install the network functions into my OS. I'll work it out.

As for the other stuff... man, I think it's really a 'you had to be there' kind of thing, you know? It seemed like a good idea at the time.

[cowardley]

Can you virus yourself? Because that sounds terrifying.

I... Well, I guess I can understand. But not really. [ she was involved in a tragic prank, after all, but she didn't help destroy a planet ]

[hybridification]

Uh... yeah. I guess. If you put it that way, it's a little scary.

That's generally the sort of thing people say when they want to say 'you're wrong, but I give up trying to explain why'.

[cowardley]

I'd be careful. I don't think we have a lot of choices in anti-viral software here.

Look, it's not that, but... You did something terrible, but you just brush it off as if it's nothing. Some people might find that... off-putting.

[hybridification]

I can see that. I'm not a bad guy though, it's just- I don't know. Complicated.

Anyway. I'll let you know if I find out any more technological wonders.

[cowardley]

I believe you. I don't think you're a bad guy, just someone who has made a few bad choices, that's all.

Thank you, Rhys.
