12 00573E52 00581EF5 Very true. There are things far more deadly than a gang of would-be bandits in those hills. Trust me on that one.
19 00573E54 00581F11 Do any other routes see this much action?
35 00573E5B 00581F00 Okay, let's see what these sneaky little eaglets have waiting for us...
49 00573E62 00581EEF Here they come! Watch the rear, we're surrounded. We have to hold out until we can get an opening. In combat
50 Don't let those Brahmin out of your sight! in combat
55 00573E64 00581ED4 Do you feel that? A steady tremble from the dark. They approach.
66 00573E67 00581EFC We're not out of the woods yet. We just killed one of their captains. They're going to get a little... vengeful.
74 00573E6B 00581EF9 Bastards. They closed the gate. The button is above us, but looks like they're holed in there pretty good.
75 Tough guy up top looks like their boss. Let's pay him our respects and get that gate open.
84 00573E6D 00581ED8 Hm. Blockade ahead. What are they playing at. Leave the clean-up to me. You just watch for ambushes.
90 00573E6F 00581F08 It's always kill or be killed with Blood Eagles. Can't even give them an inch.
92 00573E70 00574FF5 And you're lounging around making jokes? Stand ready for a fight! Second part is more of a callout to the entire team
93 00574FF6 Okay, stay sharp. Everyone hold position.
110 00573E76 00574FD7 Don't know what you're talking about, Rudy, keep up.
118 00573E78 00574FAA Protect the Brahmin at all costs. Even at the sake of your own, or Rudy's, life. If we lose the Brahmin, we lose our pay. side mouth the "or Rudy's" part -- it's a joke
119 If you get lucky, you may spot some cargo that was lost on previous runs. We'll pay for that too. Let's head out.
130 00574F2E 00581EDF No, but the caps don't hurt.
138 00581EB3 00581EE2 (Chuckle) A wicked chuckle
139 That's a box you don't want to open. with a smile
141 00581EB5 00581ECF Let's hope no one is going to any graves today... Other than our enemies, as we cast their forsaken souls to hell itself. Starting cheerful, getting dark
142 Their screams echoing back as our merciless assault rips them from this mortal coil. Darkly we stride, tall and powerful, through this tunnel of death.
144 00581EB7 00581ECC Rudy. What are we hauling today? Greeting Rudy.
145 00581EB8 00581EF3 Agreed. Let's move out! Make for the exit! In combat
147 00581EBA 00581EDB Solid work, crew. Mission accomplished. Now, let's head outside before more of them show up. formal then more casual at the end
148 00581EDC Well done, we're in the clear. Let's head out there while we can.
160 00581EBF 00581EEA For years, I could barely breathe through the blood caked up in my throat. But little by little I found my footing again.
161 Even back then, there all sorts of shit you could get mixed up in. Mistakes you made weren't just wiped clean when the bombs fell.
162 So, I searched, and searched, until I didn't. That life ended with this caravan route. Found something here that gave me a reason to stay.
166 00581EC1 00581EDA Their captain is dead. Good going. Get the gate open and let's clean up the stragglers.
177 00583DA3 00583DA6 Watch the flanks! We've got more coming!
180 0058DEE3 0058DEE7 Better step back. This thing's about to go "boom!"
185 00591DD8 00574FBE Okay, gather round. Job is really simple, but also really dangerous, so listen up.
186 We're hiring you to protect these pack Brahmin and their merchant. Today, the role of merchant will be played by none other than Rudy. Say hi, Rudy.
188 006A2C0C 006A2C46 Okay, we should probably hustle a bit.

2 005FAB64 005FAB8B Well, hello there. The spot we're looking for is further in the facility. salutations kind sir
13 005FB58C Your boss looks like she's about to strangle me with one of those vines. Something happen in there?
14 00602F46 I'm glad you and the righteous Paladin got the answers you sought. Dramatic
15 00602F52 Harpers Ferry Train Tunnel. Be there, or be... not there. What else did you need? Attempting drama, then giving up
16 00604258 Welcome to the ninth circle of hell. First, the good news: it's bring-your-own paramilitary night, so the Paladin drinks for free. Trolling
17 00604259 I'm still thinking about other ways we might get this door open... Definitely not replaying old episodes of K.D. Inkwell in my head. Sure you're not
18 Any luck finding a way to lift the lock-down yet?
23 00605F39 What do you suppose happened to all the people down in here? No signs of a struggle. Gas leak maybe? Poison? Investigating
24 00605F3A Looks like we'll need to spell out Open, Sesame, and Seed in numbers. There must be hints about the numbering system around here somewhere. Discussing with partner
26 00605F3C We just need to find a way to inject this chemical into the waterline... Let's keep moving, see if we find anything. Discussing with partner
29 00605F3F See if you can find any communication left behind by the members of the caravan. Anything can help. Thinking
32 00605FF6 (light snoring)
36 005FB35E 00603269 Aha, have you returned to plunge into the depths of Big Bend again? Well, I'm on break, sorry. Starts dramatic, ends casual
81 005FB455 005FB586 Whoa, whoa, trap? Where's this coming from? Hold on, did you say "sheep robot"? Like the baa-baa kind, or the killer robot kind? Initially taken aback, then only cares about the sheep robot. This REALLY interests him.
92 005FB463 005FB56E How considerate of you.
99 005FB474 005FB575 Okay, just give me a second. Yeesh. Offended, sarcastic
117 005FB494 005FB4D1 Pull out your decoder rings, kids. It's detective time.
123 005FB49B 005FB4CF And... done! Trust me now? I'll even lead the way, so, if you change your mind, it'll be easier to shoot me in the back. Sarcastic
124 005FB49C 005FB4D2 Login credentials... check. New terms of employment... yeah, yeah... benefits enrollment expired, sure, sure... Hurriedly going through computer pop-ups
145 005FB4B5 005FB4CA There's a trick to getting in. Gimme one shake of a Lambsquatch's tail to get it open. Nonchalant
157 005FB94C 005FB3CA Boo.
161 What are we expecting to find there? 00602F3F Well... The last known whereabouts of one of our caravans. They set up camp there, but come morning the entire place was abandoned. A bit concerned
162 It was a big group. Maybe around fifteen, including our own guard.
163 What do you know about that weird sheep robot? 00602F55 Well, I know that I'm glad you killed it. If it found me first, you'd be talking to a pile of diced meat right now. That was a close one
165 What can you tell me about this train tunnel? 00603268 The train tunnel itself isn't so important, but underneath is a top-secret gas pipeline running all the way out of the region. Almost excited by the secret tunnel
166 It's a pretty discrete route. Safe too, comparatively. Cept, uh, the most recent trip. Kind of proud of himself, then realizing its insensitive
167 005FB94C 00604268 What were we talking about...? Oh, right. Neutral transition back into any interrupted scene
168 What is this place? 00604269 Just your run-of-the-mill illegal natural gas pipeline, courtesy of the fine people at the Bysshe Company. Nonchalant. Bysshe = Bish, rhymes with fish
169 A bit before the War, Bysshe offered to maintain this historic train tunnel out of the goodness of their cold, corporate hearts. Oozing with disingenuous overtones
170 And, wouldn't you know it, they may have had an ulterior motive. Feigned disbelief!
171 Why did you lock the door in the first place? 0060426A We ferried a lot of people through these tunnels. Didn't want any of our former clients trying to use it. Honest answer
172 Not for business reasons or anything... We just didn't want anyone else going missing down here. Really trust me
173 People lived down here? How do you know? 0060426B I snooped around a bit when I first recommended the route to Joanna. There's some offices that were clearly being used as bunks for a while. Straight forward
174 Not sure what happened to them. Almost looks like they just dropped dead on the spot... That's not a bad omen, is it? Nonchalant
175 How do you know so much about this place? 0060426C Er... In a past life I used to work with these pencil pushing sociopaths in suits. Doesn't REALLY want to talk about this
176 Well, not at this facility, but I was in-the-know about their various nefarious dealings in the region. Trying to wrap it up quick
187 What are strangler vines exactly? 00604272 I dunno. They're all over this region, though. Hard as hell to cut, and they grow like they hold a grudge. Nonchalant
190 00605C4D Yeah, okay. Neutral agreement
193 005FB94C 00605F4A Being back here again even gives me the creeps... And trust me, that's saying something. Troubled still trying to crack a joke though
212 I don't think I've heard that one before... 00602F60 Well, you heard it now. Consider it a public service announcement.
213 Wait, a killer robot? 00602F42 What!? Where!? Slight panic
214 What's with the mask? 00602F36 Oh just a little something to help me breathe... and to keep my jaw attached. Nonchalant
215 You know what they say: play with fire, get burned. Play with killer robots, get your face ripped off. It's a real saying, promise
216 What do you think happened to that caravan? 00602F38 Hard to say. The campsite was pretty much undisturbed... Just empty. Spooky stuff. Ghosts, probably. Or a ghost train. Train ghost? One of those. Starting genuinely concerned, shifting to distraction
217 Tell me which one of those two things -- and only those two things -- it was when we get there, okay? emphasis on only, a bit silly
218 I'll meet you there. 00602F3C Bring snacks, please and thank you. Trying to be cute
219 Not yet, I'll keep looking. 00604232 Okay. You and the Paladin have fun.
220 Okay, we'll find something to cut the vines. 00604246 Mm-hmm. I'll just skulk here in the corner in case another way of opening this door comes to mind. Dismissive
221 Let me know if you have any luck. Try not to die a terrible death. Cheery
222 00604181 00604227 There were some engineers living down here well after the bombs fell. Looks like they lasted a few years even.
223 Which means they had a way of fighting back the vines... Maybe start by looking for how they did that? Genuine suggestion, not sarcasm
224 I get it. We need to get through the vines. How? 0060420A Yeah, that's the tricky part. Troubled
225 Behind the impenetrable wall of strangler vines... 0060424C Winner, winner, Rad Steak dinner. Sarcastic
226 00604186 0060422D If you'll cast your steely gaze to the left, you'll see a massive impenetrable wall of strangler vines. Airline attendant speak
227 To verify there's no gas leak, we need to get to the pump room. One guess where that pump room is located.
228 Out with it already. What are you trying to get me to do? 00604253 I'm trying to get you to drop the bad cop act and listen for starters. Almost annoyed, Response to "what are you trying to get me to do?"
229 Okay, so, verify there's no gas leak. 00604234 Oh, I'd love to. But... there's a little problem.
230 0060418D 00604216 Here's the quick version: clever little me locked that door by setting off a bogus gas leak alarm.
231 But... It looks like in order to lift the lock-down, you need to verify there's actually no gas leak. The door is real picky like that. Maybe it was a bad idea...
232 Start making sense or I'll put my fist through that mask. 0060423B Well I hope you've gotten your tetanus shot. No telling where my face has been. But listen up first... unfazed
233 Okay, but what's the bad news? 00604262 The bad news is that I can't unseal that door. Response to question: What's the bad news then?
234 00604194 0060423D Yep, just like I thought... Let's chat. Disappointed
235 00604195 0060421E You're not going to like this... Follow me. Sigh
236 00604196 00604200 And... that's bad... Oh, that's very bad. A little nervous
238 00604198 00604224 Okay. The camp's just past this door here. I'll get it open.
239 00604199 00604206 I can't blame you. I know I'm a real looker. Cheeky boy
240 0060419A 00604248 Fine. But don't think we aren't keeping an eye on you.
241 0060419B 00604229 And viola! It's just a little further ahead. Please, after you. intentionally says viola instead of viola.
293 006041E0 0060422F Look out, here comes trouble. Sarcastic
315 006041EF 00604249 You rang, boss? Playful
317 006041F1 0060420D Oh crap. You really want to go back there? He knows he will have to, but complaining anyway
320 I think we have what we need. Let's go. 00604213 Okie-dokie. I'll meet you there. It's the big fancy train tunnel, just East of Harpers Ferry. Nonchalant
328 0060484A 0060487C If you really want to make it up to me, I've heard you guys have some killer rocket launchers to spare. Worth a shot
330 0060484C 00604870 Eh, water under the bridge. All of my best friendships start with misplaced suspicion of mass kidnapping. Nonchalant
354 0060485A 00604874 I'm right here, you know. Someone was talking bad about him
358 0060485E 00604884 I knew those pepperoni rolls had a funky taste. Joking
363 00604863 0060488D Add it to the catalog of questionable things I already have to answer for. This is funny to him
370 006058A7 006058BB All right, let's see here...
397 What are your thoughts on what we uncovered? 00605FFA I honestly wasn't following. Something about cats and rug burn? I dunno. But, it would be real swell if you found this lot safe and sound.
398 That looked just like the Sheepsquatch Imposter. 00605FFB Well, looks like the Truthseeker's Club of Lewisburg took on some new members. Impressed
399 The real question isn't what it was, it's how many more are out there? Thinkaboutit
400 So Aries... who are you really? 00605FFC Who are any of us? Who are you? Who is the Paladin? Who am I? Now, that's a good question. Lunacy
401 Thanks for the help, Aries. See you around. 00605FFD Oh, no problem. You should head over to Big Bend East sometime, join us for a caravan run. You're a natural at walking through dark train tunnels.
402 00605FFE Anything for a fellow caravaner. Be sure to stop by Big Bend now and then, we never get tired of seeing you.
404 00605FF0 00605FF4 Let's see... Thirty days past September... Carry the two... Examining a calendar

17 00573E81 00584B4B See you 'round.
65 00573E9E 0058212A Need something?
90 00584B38 Quietly a stranger approaches. Motives unclear. Their eyes shimmer in apprehension at the ghastly apparition that greets them. "Hello!" the apparition says gleefully.
91 00584B39 This world resists the positive changes we try to bring to it, but ever so slowly, our efforts make a difference.
92 00584B3A You're making quite the name for yourself. These merchants are good people, but they'd never make it through the tunnel without our help.
93 00584B3B Ah, fresh air! Well, freshly filtered ash-infested air! I'll take what I can get, as long as it means I'm still breathing.
94 00584B3C Don't be hard on yourself. The merchant isn't dead, and neither are you. We'll get 'em next time.
102 00602F43 The prodigal child of Steel returns! Here to kick in some doors, or helping out with a caravan? Dramatic, then chummy
103 00602F44 Well, well. "Ad Victoriam." You going to be joining us on this run? I'd feel a hell of a lot safer if you did. A bit mocking, then a little timid
104 0060326A Mission complete, soldier! At ease! Hey, uh... think you can get the Paladin to sign my helmet? Burly tough guy tone, then nerding out
105 0060326B Guess the Brotherhood really taught you how to fight, huh? Good seeing you strut your stuff again, buddy. Impressed
110 006A22C9 You see before you a changed being. One made of pure chaos, and, depending on the prior meal, a bit of gas. Lordly
111 006A22CA Just can't get enough of me, eh? Well, I owe you one. Go on, gawk away. You've earned it. Playful
116 00574F57 00584B2F Ack! I'm hit.
117 00584B30 Leave me be, you bastards!
122 00574F5A 00582129 Look alive. as a greeting
151 If you don't mind me asking, what happened to you? 00584B1B It was long ago, and not a memory that comes without effort to conjure.
152 00602F53 You mean the voice? The mask? It's not so much what, but who. And, uh, I think you've already been acquainted. Coy
153 It's my special reward for standing between a robot and love... Love that, uh, some one may have programmed it to seek out. Coy
154 I do not recall that programming requiring ripping the face off of any human in its path. Or hunting down Bysshe employees for that matter... Suddenly realizing something
155 But... Isn't mother nature amazing? And it's gone
156 It never hurts to ask. But the reason I'm wearing the mask did. A lot. Can't breathe without this thing now. Snarky
157 If you ever think "hey, I'm going to try and play God today." Don't. Trust me. Nonchalant
158 What is the "Blue Ridge Caravan Company?" 00584B17 It is the tide, bringing in what was lost at sea. Also, we provide protection for traveling merchants. Start dramatic, then casual for second sentence
161 It's good seeing you again, Aries. 00602F35 I know right? I feel like we're old friends now. Seeing you again makes me want to venture out and solve some mysteries in the Wasteland. Excited then being dramatic
180 Wait, you ate a Sheepsquatch? 006A22B4 I ate multiple Sheepsquatches. Kind of stringy, but has a unique mouth-feel. Gotta watch for quills, though. Ouch. underline on multiple
181 I thought there was only one Imposter robot... But in Harper's Ferry... 006A22C1 Oh, I know. It's been bugging me for a while now. Maybe you heard my, uh, breakdown at Scoot's cabin. Serious
182 I'm not sure how, but I think it's... reproducing. The special program I installed, it could... Well... growing concern
183 Eh. I'm sure it's nothing. forget it, playful
184 Thanks for explaining... finally. 006A22A0 You've got to admit, I've been real patient about revealing my tragic origin story. Pretty proud of myself. playful
185 The Sheepsquatch Imposter... Bysshe... What's the truth behind it all? 006A22C8 Okay... Fine. All these secrets are getting heavy to lug around all day. Friendly
186 Bysshe wanted Lewisburg for some natural gas deposit under it or something. I, a loyal and brilliant employee of theirs, happen to come from there. Sincere, but a little spite
187 Since I'd sold my soul to the man already, it wasn't far beyond me to comply. Even if a little maliciously.
188 What started as an attempt to utilize a local legend to scare people off, spiraled into me falling into my old ways. Getting a little glum near the end.
189 Obsession. Fear. Paranoia. Became so obsessed with finding the real Sheepsquatch that I made some... unfortunate miscalculations... Getting a bit grim
190 Many years and multiple spit-roasted Sheepsquatches later, I emerged the man you see today. Unafraid and no longer alone. Playful again
191 How are things with your family? 006A22A6 I don't have the courage to face Shelley in person just yet... But I did leave a letter with Carver. Slight shame
192 Next time he heads back, I asked him to deliver it to her... He's a good kid. Spending time with him has been... pretty fulfilling, actually. Still a bit shy
193 He's more of a fainting lamb than a Sheepsquatch, and that's all right by me. Preferable, actually. Sincere, playful
194 "Protocol Adonais" -- what does that even mean? 006A22B9 I heard a legend once. Of a man who feared. Many things haunted his mind, but they all lead to one thought alone: death. bard-like
195 Obsessed with the notion of nothingness, he buried himself into the idea of leaving something great behind. bard-like
196 He knew if the day of his demise were upon him, he'd do everything in his power to create a record-- to leave a shadow behind where once he stood.
197 With his own eulogy in hand, but heart continuing yet to beat, he was presented a choice: let only the ego die, live on as the id.
198 So fire consumes the words of what he was. Death could never again haunt him, for he had already passed.
199 006A22BA Spent my entire life before the bombs being afraid of dying. Had me doing stuff that, even today, I'm not proud of. Sincere, but kind of nonchalant
200 I pushed everyone away. Except the fear. That never left. All alone, except for me... and the fear. Sincere
201 The most frightening thought was dying alone, forgotten. No friend to read my eulogy. Growing dark, glum
202 So, I made a plan: if the moment came, I'd record one myself. It... ended up going on a little longer than expected. Perking up, then finally joking around again
203 In the end, I guess it's just a journal of my thoughts... and instead of proving my death, it's proof I'm still alive. Nostalgic, sincere
204 Cool name, though, right? And it's gone again
242 Have any leads on work around here? 006A2C48 If you look carefully, you can see a shiny glint from the top of Vinny Costa's dome. It's like a distress flare that says: help me. Mocking. Vinny is totally bald.
243 He's right there, so... If there's something that needs doing, Vinny will pay you for it.
244 006A2C49 Hear about these "Brotherhood of Steel" jerks? They've got a fortress up in the mountains somewhere. I'm sure they'd pay you to shoot stuff. Disinterested
245 006A2C4A Stop by a train stations. Before the war, people use to put up fliers when they needed help.
246 Not saying those people are still around... or alive, but could point you to something interesting... or valuable. It's a long shot

1 006A21E5 006A22FC There's something that's been pecking away at my brain for a while now. I mean, forever, really, but worse than usual. Struggling a bit to be personal
2 I've been keeping tabs on you-- sorry, but I'm sure you get it-- I think you're maybe the only person around here that can help. Him spying on the player is no big deal-- this isn't an admission.
3 Look, I kill, steal, find stuff, and so on. Just gotta be caps at the end. 006A22F2 Well, that makes this easy. I'll take one order of "find stuff," please. Blunt
4 Uh... You okay, Aries? 006A230C Uh... No. Not really. Defeated
5 006A21F5 006A22EF There's this thing I started... It's called... (ahem)... Protocol Adonais. Unsure at first, buying in at the end. Ado-nay-is (similar to Adonis)
6 Hold for suspenseful stinger... He actually says this out loud. Not a script note.
7 There's a series of Holotapes that were recorded over time as a part of this protocol. I need to retrieve them so I can finalize the process. Straight forward
8 I'll give you the coordinates to the most recent one. You should be able to track them down in reverse order from there.
9 And you'll be funding this adventure, right? 006A22EE Yeah, yeah. Travel expenses will be reimbursed. Just hold off on the mini-bar, keep your receipts. Dismissive
10 Yeah, Ad Victoriam. What's got you so glum? 006A22F6 Glum? Me? I'm smiling ear to ear under this mask. Pretty sure I have ears. Okay fine, yeah, something's bugging me. Trying to play it off, then bringing back on the level
11 What, lost steam already, clown? 006A2321 Yeah, sorry, if you were here to see me hop and clap like Mr. Jangles, you're out of luck. Not bothered by the insult-- he's used to hearing it
12 Okay, give me the coordinates, I'll get started. 006A22E6 Magnificent. I've marked the first one for you. Pick that up and it should provide coordinates for the next in the set.
13 I'll make it worth your while... Fare thee well, Knight Errant. Attempting to return to being fanciful
14 What's on these holotapes? 006A2305 Nothing weird, if that's what you mean. Waving it off
15 Okay, nothing weird and incriminating. Waving off... but less
16 Fine, nothing that incriminates you, okay? Admitting. Emphasis on YOU
17 Did you break your legs along with your sense of humor? 006A2301 As you'll see, this is a bit of a... extended hike around Appalachia. It'd take me months to get the time off needed to fetch them all. Feels a little guilty he can't do this himself.
18 Trust me, I wouldn't be asking for help snooping around if I could myself-- snooping is personal favorite pastime. Sincere, then silly
19 You're actually serious, this MUST be bad. 006A230D Well, the world's not ending or anything. I mean, ending again. This is more of a... ugh, personal favor. Trying to play it down
20 I have no idea what this is all about. 006A230F Really? You have no idea at all? Do you just, like... wander blindly from place to place, obliviously uncovering the past? Flabbergasted, frustrated
21 I've figured out who you really are. 006A22F4 Well, go on. The suspense is killing me. A bit playful
22 Don't have time for this, I'll be back later. 006A230A Now you're just being cruel, Knight-Errant. A little annoyed
23 I'm just kidding, you're pretty touchy today. 006A22F1 (sigh) Yeah, you've caught me on a bad day. Okay, then I take it you've figured out my real name? Light touch of annoyed
24 Seriously. I pick things up and get caps for it. What's the deal? 006A2307 That's... oddly respectable. realizing he's okay with this
25 Okay, guess I'll just spill the beans myself... Assuming you have any idea what any of it means. Now realizes he's talking to an idiot
26 You've been Knight Shin this whole time. 006A22ED Who even is that? Do you Brotherhood types just make up titles for fun? No! Bewildered
27 You're the long-lost heir to the Garrahan estate. 006A2304 Yes, and here's the key to my hidden fortune. It may look like a hand grenade, but pull that pin and hold it tight. You'll see! Facetious
28 But, no... Way off. Flat
29 You're Homer Saperstein, the alien researcher. 006A22E9 How do you know about Homer? Has he been talking to you, too-- Wait. You're not baiting me on this. Nice try. Genuine curiosity turning into suspicion
30 You're the Overseer of Vault 76. 006A2300 How I've missed the days of Taco Tuesdays and Pin the Tail on the Donkey in our beloved paradise below the ground! (cough) No. Starting facetious, mocking. More of clearing throat than full cough.
31 You're Calvin van Lowe, Sheepsquatch enthusiast. 006A22E5 (sigh) "Sheepsquatch enthusiast" ... My whole life summarized into two ugly words. Yeah. That's me. Sincere
32 You're Ward from Foundation... Why are you here? 006A22FB Finally, someone with the guts to say it. But, no, much as I aspire to be, I'm not Ward. First sentence in a "tough, hardened voice"-- mocking a popular line from the game.
33 006A2217 006A2320 I am-- or was-- Calvin van Lowe, supposed food for the Sheepsquatch, fool who was felled at the hands of his own creation. Playing it up a bit
34 But figuring that out isn't the reason I sent you on this grand tour. There's one more tape-- and I have it here. Serious again
35 Take it. Either burn it, or give it to one of the merchants here named Carver Timmerman. I want the decision left to fate. But you'll have to do. Somewhat serious
36 You can listen, if you want to know why. Or just burn them and be done with it. Up to you. I've sat on this for too long, time for this coin to land. A bit painful to say
37 Okay, I'll decide how to handle it. 006A22F5 Thanks... Let me know how it goes... Please. A bit deflated
38 Carver? Why him? 006A230B Just give the tape a listen, if you need to know. Sincere
39 This is too much responsibility, Aries. 006A22EB I... know. You're right. But that's the job. Caps in exchange for deciding my legacy. Sounds fair to me. Sympathetic at first, hardening up
40 If you went through the trouble of recording this, you've already decided. 006A2302 You'd think that right? Well I'm a wild card, pal. You know that. Almost playful
41 Give 'em away or burn 'em. I'll still sleep easy either way. It's the indecision I'm stuck on. Sincere
55 Just had to make an entrance, didn't you? 006A22FA Yeah, I've probably got a few self-control issues to resolve. Playful
56 006A223B 006A22E8 Maybe we can get some practice in at that now? If you want, I mean... Cautious, trying to be less of a creep
57 Cheer up, I'll find them. 006A22FE I'm counting on you. I mean it. dead serious
58 Not yet. 006A22F9 Okay, well... just let me know if you manage it. Deflated
59 Why are these tapes so important? 006A22E3 They just are... Sorry, it should make more sense once you find them. Trouble finding the words
60 006A2241 006A22F7 Listen, I really appreciate what you've done here. You deserve every cap. Sincere
61 Now, uh, Carver and I are long overdue for a little chat, so... Thanks again, and see ya around. Sincere
62 Great. Here with my payment, I hope. 006A22E1 Yes, yes, little mouse,I've brought your cheese. Mocking
64 006A2245 006A22E4 Hey, kid. You really gotta work on your peripherals. Reserved, but trying to be playful
65 006A2275 006A229F But... what's done is done. Here's your reward. You've earned it. Serious
66 I'm going to need some time to process this. Like... at least 10 minutes. See ya around. Serious, then back to joking
67 006A2287 006A22A8 Right, I bet. That's fine, I'll just drown in these tears filling up my mask... Don't worry... about me. Trying to pull some sympathy out of the player
68 006A2288 006A2310 Hello there, brave and venerable Knight Errant of the kingdom of Atlas, the fraternity of technology, the-- (sigh) Hey. A bit of whacky role playing that deflates as he gives up
69 006A2311 Still hunting for those holotapes? They're pretty spread out... so, uh, sorry about that. Still pretty deflated
70 006A2312 I take it you've found the full set. What do you think? Cautiously curious
71 006A2313 Carver is over on the West side, if that's the path you choose. Otherwise, there's a fire pit nearby. We can talk after you've decided. Straight.
72 006A2314 Right. Where was I? Oh, yeah. Neutral
73 006A2315 And so... one life ends, and another begins. Neutral
74 006A2317 Never thought this day would come, if I'm being honest. Thanks for pulling the trigger for me... so to speak. Sincere
75 Unless you had to shoot some guys trying to get the tapes. In which case, thanks for literally pulling the trigger for me. Goof ball again
76 006A2318 Finish up with the kid... We can talk later. a bit hushed
82 006CCAB0 006A22C7 Oh, man, you are in for a ride! Devious, excited
84 006CCAB2 006A22CF Not without a lot of effort... And, a lot of stories. Downtrodden, turning into a good idea
85 You ever hear the one about Toxic Larry? genuine excitement
88 006CCAB4 006A228E Yeah... (cough) ... I'm still not really sure how to, uh... Awkward, long pauses
89 Uh, how's Shelley? I mean, your mom. The other mom. The Shelley mom. trying to be less awkward, failing
91 006CCAB6 006A22BC Sorry to get you caught up in all this, kid. Sincere

12 006C8D2C 006A22A4 No, I mean, I-- Barely getting a word in
50 006C8D38 006A2293 Fear not. My family is here now. Probably still entranced
52 006C8D3A 006A229B (Inhale) (exhale) Hmm... Family. Soaking it in
54 006C8D3C 006A22A1 What? genuine question
57 006C8D3E 006A228A Your wayward son returns, you slumbering beast of mists and mystery! Dramatic flair
58 Re-sculpted and carved into something new, I retread my old grounds with a fresh gleam in my eye, shining brighter than an atomic flash!
60 006C8D40 006A22A7 This step is the first time my feet hath graced these gentle grounds in my decades long absence. Announcing to the world
62 006C8D42 006A228D Oh, more than a spell, my trigger-happy undead friend. Cheeky
65 006C8D45 006A22BB Sorry, just needed a little stretch to go with that delicious, boggy air. Finishing a stretch
66 Also, I assure you, the skin under here ain't so smooth, Genie. Overly polite
68 006C8D47 006A22C2 (Inhale) (exhale) Ah! Appa-la-chi-yuh! really soaking it in
69 006C8D48 006A228C Oh shut it, furball! yelling at the cat
71 006C8D4A 006A2290 ... but maybe, right? Maybe? Falling to the temptation of believing his own twisted thoughts
72 No, dammit, shit. Get it together. I gotta get outta-- Realizing he slipped, trying to pull himself back together, frustrated
74 006C8D4C 006A2294 Holy hell, you little bastards are everywhere. You must be repopulating like rabbits. Annoyed
75 ... Huh... Something disturbing dawns on him
76 Repopulating... This a very troubling concept to him, dangerous even
77 Could it be... ? .... .... Growing very worried now, some shaky breathing with dead air
78 No, no, no, no, no... Stop. No, no, no... Come on. Stop it. Trying to get control over terrifying thoughts in his head. Frustrated, scared
80 006C8D4E 006A229C ... So why come out here, old boy? ... What's this ... truth ... you were so certain of? Thinking back on something he remembers his friend telling him
81 (typing) Unread
82 (sigh) Oh, Scoot... ... Hm... Geez, I didn't think he was so... Reading through some troubling journal entries.
83 Well... Nothing recent. Not sure if that's good or bad news, I-- Finished reading, then gets interrupted by a cat meowing
86 006C8D51 006A22CD What the f-- oh, it's just a cat. When's the last time I've even seen a cat? Wandering around a cabin, surprised to see one of MANY cats. Talking to self
87 Thought Scoot hated cats... Guess things really have changed, huh. To self, in thought
88 Clearly, it's... been more than a bit since he's been home. That's, uh, probably not a promising sign... Searching around, seeing the place is abandoned. Realizing his friend probably doesn't live here (or is even alive)
