Annoyed Ghost-tied to the Gamia destruction

[Alice's video projection is flitting about from monitor to monitor, looking...rather frustrated.]

Melted down for scrap...honestly, these people! Never once thinking about others!

Grrr...I do so much for them, and then they just...!

[She flops down somewhere on the screen, looking defeated.]

Bah. Maybe someday I'll show them what it's like to be a ghost...

...I guess I'll just have to keep waiting, huh...

Have you ever had a body you can actually control? Not just a computer?

Stripping people to a... ghost, as you call them, is what we do to some criminals on Cosmic Ark. It's a harsh punishment.

[girlfriend_dot_exe]

Hm...counting just those capable of independent locomotion, right now I have...seven. There were the various test machines I used back at IDS...But right now, I have seven bodies.

[mecha_eihwaz]

That's... more than I expected.

Where are those bodies now?

[girlfriend_dot_exe]

In the hangar, of course. The Zeta Plus, two tanks, and four vector bits. 1+2+4=7.

[mecha_eihwaz]

Can't you treat the Zeta Plus as your main body then? It's a pretty cool robot.

[girlfriend_dot_exe]

Hmm...I suppose so, but it can't fit in the hallways here...

I'd rather have a human-like body.

[mecha_eihwaz]

I haven't considered the size problem...

Maybe if we added arms and legs to one of the bits?
