I'm new, so...  we're given free reign of this guy? Seems cool.

Well, you can affect Maugham's desicions by suggesting that he does something, but he won't always follow those, only if those opinions are well-justified. Also, you may ask him anything.

Shower or whatever
Shower>Redress>Shoes>Remember Job>Muse on Geography>Leave Home

Great idea, by the way. That won't take too long, I hope.



Muse on the wider geopolitical situation a little.

Frankly speaking, I'm not that informed when it comes to politics. Local newspapers and the radio are usually quoting those of the Commonwealth, and most of them are directly controlled by the Dominion administration. Anyway, if I understand correctly, there's nothing really new today. The Pure Domain is doing it's superpower thing, the bugmen and some other dudes are all like "we can do it better", the Independent States are corrupt or/and ruined, the Pazzis are a nuisance, nothing is heard from the aliens, and everything else is rather barren.





Recall what our job is again.

Also, what was that dream we had, anyway?


I am a secretary to the Head of the local Telecommunication Board. We don't have much to do at the moment, since most of the network is provided and taken care of by the Dominion. As for my dream...

Let's say, I haven't talked to her for around three years now. Haven't seen much of her either.




Head out the door.

+1, put on some shoes first though, maybe that pair of boots by the door.

Alright, let's move.

Yes we should do that, but then also check our wallet to make sure our memory hasn't been tampered with. The day feels a bit strange!

M-marks? What marks?

Oh, these ones.

Those two lamps would have been a part of bioelectrical nanointerface if I had had one installed. A while ago the Dominion administration proposed to fit all local government workers with those, but then restrictions came in. Now it's nothing more than a fancy piercing. Also, I'm less than eager now to do such things for no good reason.

The interface users are somewhat of a rare sight nowadays. The availability of such augmentations is rather low as well.

Those two were cops, by the way.

Eh, I don't quite remember how much I had on me... Around two hundos, I think?

Alright, it makes two hundred credits in cash and some 3 thousand on my work account. I can use my labour card in local stores and, on some occasions, in the Commonwealth.




There it is, our office. To the left.

I like the art, and I already start liking the setting (we don't get these around often here!)
