conversation

[21:34] Sue 209 (nurse209) comes in and flops on the couch, giving a nod to Tae "so how's the geometry?"

[21:37] Tae loks up when  disturbed from her studies, about ready to snap at whomever it was, but that white metalliccasing would cause her temper to subside as she looks across the room at her friend. 'Not bad, I'm getting into some more advanced concepts actually. I should be up to a fairly competent point within the next few hours or so. It's just a matter of practice really." she'd smile gently and justsmile gently, patting the cushion next to her.
[21:39] Sue 209 (nurse209) nods and gets up, sitting on the couch next to her "so...why are you picking now to do geometry?".
[21:42] Tae just shrugs a little bit and thinks for a moment before answering. 'it's logical, i've decided that I should elarn it after i became competent at algebra. And that was finished about two days ago. You realize that i'm having to re learn everything right? I suffered  a great deal of brain damage, and was only re-educated with basic literacy really. I wish that hadn't been the case but sadly it was."
[21:43] Sue 209 (nurse209): oh, no, I didn't realize, sorry, was it the same thing that made you need the mask?
[21:45] Tae just gives a sigh and sits up, looking sad for a moment. 'yes, yes it was. I'm not sure how much you know about Chlorine gas, but simply put, if you don't have lungs you can't breathe, and if you can't breathe then your body is starved for oxygen, and braincells start to die off quite rapidly.  I used to be a genetiecist, now i'd need extensive training or implantation to do that same job."
[21:46] Sue 209 (nurse209): i see, so that's why you're so interested in either what phee can do for you, or z
[21:49] Tae nods a little bit and just shrugs for a moment, her curious nature in the matters of  her work quite clear  to sue now. 'Correct, and well, anything you can tell me about Z and Utopia would be useful, surely you actually know something." she'd just sigh aand think for a moment. "ahh right, we've discussed this already haven't we? my apologies."
[21:49] xChip 1.0.1.7: xChip is moving locations!  The store in Axel is no longer in service.
[21:50] Sue 209 (nurse209): yeah, it's alright, but it does sound like phee's got a good chance to transfer you
[21:52] Tae nods a little bit and she sighs. 'this is true, considering I'm equivalent to a Class three or Four A.I anyway, It shouldn't be too hard. I'm just thankful that she's agreed to act as my teacher in the matter, i'm really not sure how to thank her."
[21:54] Sue 209 (nurse209): course that all depends on if she survives the suicide mission in 8 hours, but still, it might not end as bad as i'm thinking
[21:56] Tae just smiles a little bit and reaches over to pat the woman on the shoulder. 'well, I'm sure you'd be able to help me as well. I mean, with everything racing raound in your brain, i'm sure that you'd be more than a little useful.' she'd just smile hopefully for a moment before she starts coughing all of a sudden, the disturbance coming hard and fast.
[21:58] Sue 209 (nurse209) turns "are you alright?"
[22:02] Tae winces a little bit as she slowly stops coughing, regaining her breath. "I'l fine, don't worry, please, I'm just a little torn up, but I think I've told you about my lungs, or rather, half of a lung." She'd sigh a little bit, her face, just contorting into a frown. "So, do you have anything you'd like to ask of me?"
[22:04] Sue 209 (nurse209): so the chlorine gas, it knocked you down to a quarter of a lung? what does the gasmask do for you then if it's the lungs themselves that;s the problem?
[22:07] Tae just sighs a little bit and taps her visor. 'remember when i went into the coughing fit and you had to adjust the pressure?  It isn't just the lung that is damaged, but my diaphragm as well, in short the mask breathes for me. the high pressure allows the half lung i have remaining  to fill with air, as well as allowing my chest to expand properly. On the exhale, my mask releases pressure allowing my chest to contract and lung to deflate to expel carbon dioxide. On top of that it amplifies the amount of oxygen i breathed by roughly four times. so it concentrates the oxygen to alost a pure blend, and allows me to breathe without being hooked up to a machine.'
[22:11] Sue 209 (nurse209): ahh, I see, that makes sense then, I thought the visor was linked to some sort of internal implant at first
[22:14] Tae shakesher head for a moment. 'no, the vissor has a wireless network as i'm sure you're aware. the mask is tied to the visor to give me alerts, but adjustments are of course manual as you've seen." she'd just sigh a little and let out a heavy breath. "anything else you'd like to know Sue? I'm just happy talking with you."
[22:17] Sue 209 (nurse209): did the ccident cause any other serious in juries?
[22:19] Tae just shrugs a little bit and thinks for a moment. 'my heart was severely damaged also. My remaining part of a lung and heart are held to gether with medical implants. frankly Sue, it's only a matter of time before my heart decides to tear itself apart, especially if i exer exceed 115 beeats per minute. So frankly, i have a rather evsted interest inchnaging bodies, be it cybernetic or organic.'
[22:25] Sue 209 (nurse209) nods "understandable, that was originally how sergei had approached me about his experiment, promises of 'living forever' and other stuff.
22:27] Tae just gives a sigh and shakes her head. "Well, I'm glad that you're here now, you're a very good friend." She'd just smile gently and look kindly on the woman, almost worshipful. 'so, what are you thinking about right now/"
[22:29] Sue 209 (nurse209): hoping tomorrow goes well, I'm going along with Phee and Armitage as technical support, I'm beter at jumping and diving than phee, while she's better at shooting
[22:31] Tae nods a little bit and just smiles gently, having heard that bit upstiars, but happy to be heraing it again as confirmation of intent. "well, i hope that you all make it back alright, i'd be sad if i lost you."
[22:33] Sue 209 (nurse209) smiles, "Thanks, I'd be sad if I lost me too *smirks* but seriously, thanks, hopefully it will work out, Phee has had a past as a fighter, I don't really know armitage though.
[22:36] Tae just shrugs a little and looks over the woman. "Well, i'd suggest that you simply trust her, of course this is coming from someone that recently arrived here. You're a nice woman and a good friend.' she'd just sigh for a moment and shake her head. "How about we talk about something else? This is sort of morbid."
[22:43] Sue 209 (nurse209) laughs "ok, so if you went through with the transfer, still going to get that chassis you showed me?
[22:45] Tae just shrugs a little bit and gives a  sigh. 'why wouldn't I? This is the body that the 'dear leader' wished me to have. this isn't what my natural genetics are, very llike far from it. That chassis I showed you, i'd like for it to be an organic body were i to be cloned."
[22:47] Sue 209 (nurse209) nods "yeah, I read your dossier, they really modify the women to all look like the leader'sfave huh?"
[22:49] Tae just blinks a little bit, scratching the back of her head. 'where did you find that? even i don't have access to it, In fact, i don't think I've ever seen it. Was there anything interesting on it?" she'd just blink for a moment aand sit back floored. "But yes, this body is genetically engineerred to look this way. Do i honestly look like I have the fat to have breastts this big?"
[22:51] Sue 209 (nurse209) laughs "could be worse, I've seen some with genetic work done, where they need a wheelbarow to carry their chests, if it weren't for the fact their waists would snap in half first
[22:52] Tae just smiles a little and looks herself over. "I feel proportional in comparison, thank you sue, that made my day. But it didn't answer my question either."
[22:54] Sue 209 (nurse209): no, you don'[t really look like you have much fat at all
[22:56] Tae chuckles a little bit and shakes her ehad. "I meant about the dossier, and thank you, i think. Though of course, I've been easting  bit heavier recently. i was really all skin and bones until recently. Actually as far as food goes, having a nutrient drip while i wa sin the hospital was quite good for me."
[22:58] Sue 209 (nurse209): dossier, I did some poking around some databases, saw a name that looked familiar, checked it out *shrugs*
[23:00] Tae kust looks curious for a moment, her eyebrows rising slowly. "i'd like to know exactly what you found out about me if you found anything interesting. I hope that i wasn't too strange."
[23:01] Sue 209 (nurse209): intellectual, worked as a lab tech at an early age, very early
[23:01] Sue 209 (nurse209): brain development stunted due to malnutrition
[23:03] Tae scratches the back of her head for a moment, trying to remember it, what memories that she did have were fragmented and damaged.. The bit about stunted brain development didn't surprise her in the least looking back on it. "well, i guess working in a lab at a young age is something to be proud of, even if my brain didn't develop right. I'm just happy to be giving it the chance to develop right now."
[23:06] Sue 209 (nurse209) nods "you'll be running a lab soo enoug most likely, anyway, I need to [23:06] Tae nods a little bit and smiles. 'I'll see you later then, and please, have a nice day."
[23:07] Tae Aichi (taellinu.aichi) is offline.
[23:07] Sue 209 (nurse209) nods back, "thanks, you too
