Audio, 001 [ID: Rock Light]

[syntheticson]

[Surprisingly, the first thing to notice about the audio is probably how -clear- it is. There's very little (if any) background noise, almost as if it's from someone with built-in communication. Of course, it kind of is.

The second is that is -definitely- some weird prepubescent voice.]

Haha, maybe I should have access this board... earlier. I got here, and then there was that whole big ceremony, and it just kind of slipped by me...though, to be honest, this flows more like a chatroom. Are we using some sort of ICU-variant? Do I need to ask for people's UINs?

Oh, maybe I got off to the wrong start.

Hi! I'm Rock. I'm the son of Dr. Light - well, one of them, anyway, and... well, he built me and my brother and sister and all my other brothers! I guess I'm kind of on my own right now, though. Which leads me to my first question.

How many people have experience with robots and robotics? I mean, it's okay if you don't. I was just wondering. Knowing someone to come to for the occasional repair might be handy, given my reputation back home.

Anyway! I might not necessarily have wanted to be here, but if anyone needs my help, I'll do my best!

I care about my operator in the same way you'd care about your human creator. I'll protect and serve him to the best of my ability - and that is my choice.

I see no need to extend that to the rest of humanity. There is the difference between us. One of many.

I am far from heroic. You shouldn't assume initial pleasantness as the hallmark of a good person - that will get you hurt, or worse. Try to be careful.

[ Magicman is somehow saying "i'm not a good person' and then actively giving Rock advice at the same time. Truly, he has many facets. ]

Perhaps I shouldn't... but even if you don't see yourself as good - I don't think you're all that bad, Magicman.

...I'll accept your opinion, then. I've given you the necessary data to make your own decision on that front. [ He won't change his mind on his own perceptions on himself, but really, what else can he do but accept other people's good will. ]

Have you acquainted yourself with the major cities here yet? It's useful to get an idea of what you're in for as you travel. I don't believe you're allowed to cross borders uninhibited or use the Porter without restriction unless you register, though.
