DAY 265 — Morning Greeting
Welcome to Day 265, inmates. Your weather will be fair and sunny. You will also have some new company.

For those of you interested in adopting pets and have not yet done so, we will be adding a few additional options. You may want to stop by and see if any of them click with you. After all, pets have many positive influences upon their owners from stress relief to increased responsibility.

(OOC: Details on the Tribble invasion here. Other new animals you'll find include bearbees, turtleducks, hedgehogs and tarantulas)

	Hey, Veridical. I'd like to request some tools for a project I'm working on. [He had a list in hand, ready to go.] (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Kiosk ai_veridical 2014-03-31 09:34 pm UTC (link)
	Tools beyond which you can find in our stores? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Kiosk devine_braid 2014-04-06 09:08 pm UTC (link)
	Unless I missed the stuff that will help me do some boring on an internal combustion engine, then, yeah. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Kiosk ai_veridical 2014-04-06 09:50 pm UTC (link)
	I will require a detailed list. [Which can be handwaved.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Kiosk devine_braid 2014-04-06 10:16 pm UTC (link)
	Alright. You got it. [He had his list, too.] Um... can you take a picture of it or should I read it to you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Kiosk ai_veridical 2014-04-06 10:20 pm UTC (link)
	I have already processed this list. I will require more information about your goals for this project. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Woah! That was quick.

Um. Okay. Like, for um... what I plan on doing with them?

Well, a friend of mine's got a scooter and I'm a mechanic, and I offered to do some work on it for her. Maintenance, upkeep, all that stuff. No offense to you guys, but I think she kind of wants a human to work on it for her.

[Once he got past the initial shock of the AI picking up on his list before he even did something specific to scan it, he felt into his slicker cooler delivery.]

	I am superior to an organic life form in that way. Since this is a cooperative effort the tools will be made available at a reduced rehabilitation point price. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Kiosk devine_braid 2014-04-08 04:05 am UTC (link)
	Oh. Well, that's cool. I guess I've earned points through running the post office, huh? [He smiled a bit. He wasn't sure how many, but it was okay.] So, does that mean I'm good to go, then? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Kiosk ai_veridical 2014-04-08 04:45 am UTC (link)
	The post office is a favorable boon in your points. However, you are not eligible for all of your equipment at this time. You may choose two-thirds of your tools and make due until you can raise the remaining necessary points. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Kiosk devine_braid 2014-04-10 06:29 pm UTC (link)
	Right. Gotcha. [He considered the list for a moment, and picked the more important ones first.] I'll come back in a few weeks or so, then? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Kiosk ai_veridical 2014-04-12 07:31 pm UTC (link)
	That would be appropriate. (OOC: A little sooner is fine too since that could be awhile OOCly) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Kiosk devine_braid 2014-04-13 04:01 am UTC (link)
	Alright. See you then! {OOC: Thanks!} (Reply to this) (Parent)

	That's alright, you don't have to go out of the way to do something I can accomplish myself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ai_veridical 2014-04-05 10:31 pm UTC (link)
	What an enticing way for you to put it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Can't punish me for something I haven't done... isn't that the way the game is played? And I do believe I've held up my end of the bargain. So hand it over. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ai_veridical 2014-04-05 10:37 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, I'm quite certain I could if I were so motivated. For now, you may have your coat tomorrow. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Neil's a little uncertain about this; back in the City he'd only dealt with the Deities a handful of times but it was always dangerous. Maybe the people in charge here are nicer-- he hopes-- but he's not counting on it.] Um, hello? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Kiosk ai_veridical 2014-04-05 10:28 pm UTC (link)

	I wasn't sure if there was something special I had to do to get your attention. Hello, there. I wanted to ask if you could help me with something. My name is Neil, I'm pretty new here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ai_veridical 2014-04-05 10:43 pm UTC (link)
	Would you like to do something special? Maybe a jig? Also, I brought you here. I am aware of a great many things about you, Neil. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	had_not_lived 2014-04-05 10:49 pm UTC (link)
	Well, I'm sure you do, I just thought it would be nice to introduce myself since we haven't really met before. [HE'S JUST TRYING TO BE POLITE, GOSH.] I was wondering-- I had some other things with me, when I left the City I came from. A painting and a sword and a bunch of books, that I couldn't find when I woke up here. Is there any way I could get them back? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ai_veridical 2014-04-05 10:52 pm UTC (link)
	[And it's adorable, really.] At least not that you're aware of. [Nope, not clarifying that.] Retrieval of those items will require rehabilitation points of varying quantities. Books, the least, because they can be a tool in your rehabilitation. Then the painting and then far, far, far from either of those will come the sword. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	had_not_lived 2014-04-05 11:01 pm UTC (link)
	[Cryptic statements don't even seem out of place. Ok, if you say so, lady.] So if I stay out of trouble and... What, do activities here, I can get my things back? Okay. Can I ask how long it normally takes? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Something like that. It will depend on the amount of your involvement and the excellence of it. For example, running or working in a business is good. But you'd get less points with a bar or porn shop than you would for a hat boutique and that would still be less than running a business to promote healthy eating and exercise habits. There are also classes to take and teach. Organizations to start or join. Perhaps someone with a bit of imagination could add even more.

	All right, then, I guess I'll come back when I've done something excellent. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ai_veridical 2014-04-05 11:38 pm UTC (link)
	An exciting prospect indeed. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hey, Veri. Just got some boring requests. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Not a problem! ai_veridical 2014-04-21 06:25 pm UTC (link)
	How exciting. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2014-04-21 11:13 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah totally, I know right? [Hah.] Just wanted to see if I could get a variety of plants to stick in the gardens here. [Gonna rattle off a few names, vegetables mostly.] ... And a red rose bush. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ai_veridical 2014-04-22 02:35 am UTC (link)
	Some of those are available already in our stores. You are okay with the use of some of your points for the rest? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2014-04-22 04:39 am UTC (link)
	Yeah, I'd be down with that. Thanks Veri. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Then they will arrive tomorrow. (OOC: Which you can handwave at this point.) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
