Dream of electric sheep.

You dream of sheep, crackling with lightning and electricity. A strange choice, but then, you mind doesn't seem to be the most normal, does it?


You awaken slumped against the door some time later. Overlaid on your vision is a small digital clock reading '3:07 Station Time' and the words 'Good Morning!' in the bottom right.

You still do not remember anything.

Find something to make into a crutch or two. This weak legs problem is really annoying. A tie rod or long piece of steel would work. Actually, since we have this weird overlay on our vision, let's try something... "Query:  what is my current location?"

[13] There's a bit of the door that's a bit less charred than the rest of it. You manage to rub the soot off of. It's blurry, but you can sort of see yourself.

You're...plain. A near-symmetrical, androgynous face, dull grey eyes, and a shock of dark-brown hair makes your appearance nothing particularly interesting. There's a bit of a bruise on your cheek bone, and you appear to be gaining a bit of a black eye. You body appears emaciated and weak, but otherwise similarly androgynous, as far as you can tell.

[20] Just a bit down the wall you see a in-built cabinet marked 'Medical supplies.' In it are a number of supplies - antiseptics, bandage-foams, even a vial labeled 'HEALING NANITES - EMERGENCY USE ONLY'. It comes with a rather long list of warnings. A few other things like splints, gloves, coats - anything you could need - all appear to be in working order

Hanging off the door is a wheelchair, and there's a few pairs of crutches leaned against one of the corners.

[17] You speak your query out loud and hear a voice within you head respond.

Station-wide location services are currently down, but it appears that you're in one of the cryogenic storage modules. Welcome back to the world. You are currently on the Eternity Orbital. Galactic location services are also down.

For future reference, you do not need to speak your query out loud if you do not want to.

What name would you like to me to refer to you by?

((Feel free to ask questions, time won't pass significantly while you do so.))
You sound like a human to me, one of the countless masses that exist in the galaxy. Beyond that...you are no one I am aware of, with my databases offline.

...No. Either you're a very convincing android, or you've got some cybernetics. Potentially even brain-enhancing nanites, if you were wealthy before freezing.

Have you lost your memory?

"Yeah, I lost my memory. For now...I think I'll call myself Eveline."

Very well, Eveline. I can try and find out who you were at some point, but first we've got to get my databases up and running.

I hate to ask this of you, but....you're the only life sign I'm registering on the station. I've only just rebooted after who knows how long, and there's not much power left in the auxiliary reserves. If you've got any more questions, I'll answer them as best I can, and then I need you to help me get this place back in working order.

"Define 'help'. I don't even remember my skillset. Is there some way I should test what I can do? And... what should I call you, exactly? 'Bridge'?"

I...should be able to talk you through most things? Without your memories, you're unlikely to have many hard skills, and any muscle memory you might have had is gone with your atrophied muscles.

Hopefully, the vital things shouldn't be much more than pressing a few buttons and plugging a few things in. There might even be a few working service droids around here I can use.

My official designation is QCBGKAI MK. II - Eternity Orbital Branch. Most people call me Crystal though. It was my job to keep this place running, but...something happened. It's not accessible to me right now. Hopefully the databases will hold something useful.

Correct, there should be. I'm not registering anything dangerous, other than depleting power levels, but...

Something happened here, a long time ago. I was shut down, and with me, the station. Anyone here after that either died or left.
