"I have been here for about 2 minutes (I'll assume that's how long, because I don't know how big the ship is really, correct if needed) And I resent the implication!
I am Stephen Hawking, and I invented physics.
So no, I am not brain damaged."
inform the man of his gross mistake.
"I'm pretty sure that physics was invented by a wide range of individuals over the course of hundreds of years and is constantly being updated and changed. And if I remember correctly your particular contributions consisted of still unproven hawking radiation and about 50 different stabs at theoretical physics, some so abstract they're more akin to philosophy then hard mathematics. That and your fetish for black holes. Just like Thomas Jefferson."
The man in the kiosk across the hall shouts "HEY-OOOOO"
There's a moment of awkward silence.
"So you gonna buy something or not?"
You just want the AM to teach ya about amps huh? Don't worry, her stuff with milno is aaaalmost done. One more turn or so, I promise.
((Well, I'll settle for an AI version of her, but if she wants to hijack her AI version, I won't complain.))

((I'd just like to remind Piecewise that I too, am waiting for Milno to finish his thing to get some amp trainage with the AM. I requested it some time ago. I haven't been posting much because I didn't really have anything to do on ship and I've been kinda busy lately. But yeah, just a reminder. I suppose it's my own fault for kinda falling off of the grid there ))
You can both take the AM's classes after Milno is done.
Check the smaller door to see if it is a better escape route. Then asplode things. If able to do so, do not look at explosion.
You head the opposite way and check out the smaller door. It seems mostly unguarded; an internal passage that leads across a skyway to some other building that wasn't included in the simulation. You shrug and take it, walking nonchalantly for a good mile or so before tuning your radio to the right frequency and then sending a small transmission. It reads "Boom."
You don't hear the blast, but you can feel it; and whats worse is that you can see it. A tiny shudder that comes racing up the skyway like a ripple in a pond. The lights in the entire building go dark.
The simulation ends with a blinking "GOOD JOB" in bright green text.
A novel that doesn't require much thought to read, it is hard to think while shitfaced, and not picky on the booze. Heavier, the better.
She gives you a bottle of something called "LEAD BRICK" a silvery grayish bottle filled with something the color and consistency of mercury. She gives you a copy of what looks like some sort of simple action-adventure novel; a pulp sci-fi thing with a raygun gothic image of a man surrounded by green women on the cover.
