JASON.MSG

{100}{}{You see a young man with sharp features.} {101}{}{You see Jason Zimmerman.} {102}{}{Hey, are you from really far away? Have you had a lot of adventures?} {103}{}{Yes, I'm from a Vault far to the north.} {104}{}{Actually, I'm from Mars. Want to see my firelance?} {105}{}{I've had some adventures.} {106}{}{Haven't done all that much, really.} {107}{}{Uh, far. Vault.} {108}{}{Oh. I thought someone who'd been through the wastes outside would be, well, smarter. Never mind.} {109}{}{Miles says that now that you got those parts, he can get the farms working, so that we don't have to sell bullets to the Hub. I never thought much about it until Smitty pointed out that the bullets he made were } {110}{}{sold to the Hub, who sold them to the gangs. I guess you found a good solution.} {111}{}{I never thought that we would be able to stop fighting the gangs. My father told me how you got them to promise to leave us alone. You know, I thought I always wanted to go adventuring, but I think that I like. . . well, the } {112}{}{feeling of security here now. No more worrying about the gangs suddenly attacking and wondering who's going to be killed.} {113}{}{Lorraine says that there was a Vault south of here, where a lot of my grandparents lived. What's it like living in a Vault?} {114}{}{It's pretty boring, actually.} {115}{}{It's very exciting. We have all sorts of technology you wouldn't believe!} {116}{}{Oh. Well, you must have had some adventures after leaving, right?} {117}{}{Not really.} {118}{}{Yes, there's quite a bit of danger out there.} {119}{}{As someone once wrote, 'Adventure is someone else far away having a very unpleasant time.'} {120}{}{Huh. The Hub merchants talk about radscorpions and stuff.} {121}{}{Actually, it's mostly just desert.} {122}{}{Well, actually, there are all sorts of monsters out there.} {123}{}{Really? What kinds of monsters have you fought?} {124}{}{Not much, just some rats and stuff.} {125}{}{Yeah, the Hub guards said that there are lots of radioactive mutant things living in the desert. Monster hunting must be a real blast!} {126}{}{Yes, it's a real kick!} {127}{}{No; it's more of a pain. Venom, bites, radiation. . . it's deadly.} {128}{}{I wish that I could go adventuring sometime.} {129}{}{I never though about that. I rather like having clean water and a place to stay.} {130}{}{I thought that living in the wasteland would be. . . you know. . . rugged, and dangerous, and everything. But I suppose we have enough to keep us busy here, with the gangs and all.} {131}{}{What, are you some kind of weirdo or something? Caleb never should have let you in the gates!} {132}{}{That's cool. All we have here is this stupid well and those underground farms that Miles keeps trying to get working.} {133}{}{Yeah, I noticed that you don't have a bedroll or anything. It must get pretty dirty and uncomfortable out there.} {134}{}{Hello again. Have any interesting stories to tell?} {135}{}{What do you want to know about?} {136}{}{Not really.} {137}{}{Well, if you do anything interesting, tell me all about it!} {138}{}{Leave me alone!} {139}{}{Thank goodness you're here! Please help me get out of here!} {140}{}{Ayuh.} {141}{}{Don't worry, I'll get us out of here.} {142}{}{Sorry kid, you're on your own!} {143}{}{What are you doing here?} {144}{}{Thank you!} {145}{}{Please don't leave me!} {146}{}{I thought that it would be fun to leave Adytum and explore the world. But the Rippers caught me and have been holding me here. Please, help me!} {147}{}{All right, let's get out of here!} {148}{}{No way. You got yourself into this, you get out.} {149}{}{I hope we get out of here soon!}
