[You forgot to check earlier but currently your game is running at normal speed. Still warm but not at full furnace blast.
As for the matter of "Jack," you need some more information before you can make a final decision.]
>TALK: Why can't "Jack" tell us what he needs to like he just did? Why does he need us to switch our point of view over to him?
You feel a dull buzz in your head. You feel as if you desperately need to talk, but the right words won't come out.
[PARANOIA] This instinct isn't natural. <span class="mu-r">Whatever this is, it's not coming *from* you and certainly it's not *for* you.</span>
The <span class="mu-i">robot</span> within the escape pod emits another cacophonous cipher-slurry:
Okay, ohhhhhkay. I see we got off on the wrong foot, pal, but you gotta understand! I'm underneath a ton of pressure here! To crew, I'm a threat. For you, it's a game. But for ME? For me, THIS JOB IS MY FUCKING LIFE!
Just...
Dammit, the words are already in the air. It's too late to take them back now.
Then let's just take it from the top, eh Pal?
Welcome to DISFORTUNA!
Name's Jack! Jumping Jack Flash! I'm the guy who'll be guiding you through the Tutorial.
And to really quickly answer that question of yours:
1. I need both the current player character status AND your express permission in order for me to fix your missing SYSTEM files, such as the pause function, character switching, and healthbars. This delivery has been a long time coming.
2. I need your help because I don't got a Goddamn clue on how to negotiate with these fire-hating moths which did not exist up until now.
Now please hurry up and click on my face before these freaky fellows throw me out ANOTHER FUCKING AIRLOCK!!!
[Hehe. Hmm. Should you click?]
>Y
>N
>Henry's PANIC Check -> SUCCESS
"Captain, what are your orders?" Henry's voice snaps you into reality.
>If this robot tries to breach in without my order, disconnect the escape pod away.
"Start the disconnect procedures on the nearby panel. Do it!"
"On it Captain!"
"Please don't! It's all just a misunderstanding!" the robot pleads, synthetic desperation filling the antechamber.
[HENRY'S DESERTER] "Get away from the airlock, you defector!" Henry screeches with all the hate in his heart.
>WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO?
