Still. I could go for a walk and not run into any barriers keeping me out.

[i mean. sort of.]

[camena]

[ shakes. WHAT DO YOU MEAN SORT OF. ]

You spend a lot of time out and about? Or are you more about, like, cooping up in your office to do online detective work?

[factoring]

[ The standard game thing of walking into invisible walls that can't really exist, but it's so the coders don't have to render additional areas. ]

Occasionally I get cases that require me to be out of my office for weeks.

[camena]

[ ah, a Classic Gamewall. ]

What, like stake-outs?

[factoring]

Or sometimes I need to get my hands on physical media.

[camena]

What's that mean?

[ like... buying dvds??? help ]

[factoring]

Sometimes it's easier to get things physically instead of over the network.

[camena]

Is that for fun, or part of work?

[factoring]

It's work. I don't go around taking things I don't need.

[camena]

I dunno, maybe you're a collector. Of something.

[factoring]

I'm afraid not.

[camena]

Well, what sort of thing do you do for fun? When you're not... Detective-ing?

[factoring]

I make coffee.

[It's terrible coffee.]

[camena]

Like... Fancy... grow the beans yourself coffee?

Or just...

[factoring]

Just trying different blends.

[camena]

Is that a hobby...?

[factoring]

If collecting badges is a hobby, so is this.

[camena]

I guess so...

I don't usually drink much coffee.

[factoring]

It's not for everyone.

[camena]

I just don't need the extra energy.

[factoring]

Enough on your own?

[camena]

Yep.

Oh yeah! So! What was with the giant robot?

[factoring]

[her ROBOT]

They're a program I'm familiar with.

[camena]

One of those AI things?

[factoring]

Something along those lines, yes.
