Hello! My name is Asami. I currently work at the Research Center in general technology and I'm a Spring.

[That's a quick and nice introduction from this lady before actually getting into why she's contacting the network, sitting in a living room dressed in fairly comfortable and casual clothes.]

I'm very interested in technology in general and wish to know what kind of technological level you have back in your worlds. My own isn't even closed to what they have here. Our telephones have landlines, for example, and our cars look nothing like the ones here. So it's been a new and wonderful experience.

[She's made plenty of new discoveries so far.]

Or you could tell me what's your favorite technological thing you've discovered while being here... or even just an app on these smartphones.

Maybe tape up signs like 'please hold hands before using transporter'.

[soundsperfect]

Just how many teleporters are there in the city... that could take a while.

[abnormalizes]

A lot, but you could frame it as a public service thing and get volunteers to help?

[soundsperfect]

That's true... It might even work. I'll pitch the idea to my coworkers, see if we can make some signs.

[abnormalizes]

How is it working in the Research Center? Do you like your job?

[soundsperfect]

It's nice. They give you a lot of freedom on what projects you take on and the pay is pretty decent. They're even helping me understand all new words I might not know.

[abnormalizes]

That does sound pretty nice. I'm job hunting myself, but I don't really know what I'm looking for yet.

[soundsperfect]

I recommend at least checking it out. There are plenty of departments to choose from.

[abnormalizes]

That's what I hear. I guess I'm just not really sure where my job skills would work best? There really isn't a good analogue to what I used to do.

[soundsperfect]

Hmm. Well, tell me about what you did? Maybe I might have an idea.

[abnormalizes]

I worked with monsters in a power production facility that harvested the energy that monsters give off when active. My duties included seeing to their social needs and beating them down when they breached containment, along with trying to keep employee casualties to a minimum.

[soundsperfect]

Oh... well we do have a section for examining monsters. I'm sure your expertise would be appreciated there. Sometimes the monsters they bring in are rather aggressive.

[abnormalizes]

That sounds like exactly what I'm best suited for here. I'll check it out.

[soundsperfect]

Good to hear! Maybe we'll meet sometime when you're around.

[abnormalizes]

I'd love to hang out sometime and talk science.

[soundsperfect]

Gladly. I'm always down to talk some science.

[abnormalizes]

Same! I'm enjoying my vacation from my work here, but I do miss getting to be a nerd sometimes.

[soundsperfect]

Hey, if it's for fun, it's not really work, right?

[abnormalizes]

The part where you get paid is still pretty important generally.

[soundsperfect]

Well, that.

[abnormalizes]

Sad but true. If anyone could find a way to survive off of fun it would be me, but nope.

[soundsperfect]

Perhaps one day, you will. Never give up.

[abnormalizes]

It'll revolutionize society as we know it, for sure.
