TOPIC TOPIC TEXT / PROMPT EMOTION RESPONSE TEXT #
GREETING GREETING Neutral 50 Could you come back in an hour or two? Even geniuses need their sleep. {very sleepy} 1
GREETING Surprise 60 Well, whaddya know? It worked! I mean, I was pretty sure it would, obviously. 2
Neutral 50 Here, take a few radiation Chems with you. I'm sure you'll run into more in the future. 3
GREETING Fear 60 Well, you're alive... That's the good news. But there was a little side effect. A teeny, tiny, um, mutation. But it seems to be benign, at least. 4
Happy 25 Here, take a few radiation Chems, as my little way of saying, "I'm sorry I twisted your DNA like a kitten with a ball of yarn." 5
GREETING Happy 50 No mess, no problem! Well, a bit of a mess. But no problem, regardless! 6
Neutral 50 Here. You know, for next time you get hurt, and I'm not around. 7
GREETING Happy 35 Okay, I even stitched a little smiley-face in you, to keep up your spirits. It's kind of hard to see from your side, though. 8
Neutral 50 Here, take this environment suit of mine. It will help with medical tasks, and it should help prevent the effects of exposure, too. 9
GREETING Surprise 50 Hey, I hear you're that stray from the Vault! I haven't seen one of you for years! 10
Happy 50 Good to meet you! I'm Moira Brown. I run Craterside Supply, but what I really do is mostly tinkering and research. {Surprised and excited} 11
Happy 50 Say, I'm working on a book about the Wasteland it'd be great to have the foreword by a vault dweller. Help me out, would you? 12
GREETING Surprise 50 Hey! Is that you? 13
Fear 25 Oh, my head's still ringing from that explosion... What happened? 14
GREETING Happy 50 Hey, new in town? Good to meet you! I'm Moira Brown. I take care of supplies and repairs here, but what I really do is mostly tinkering and research. 15
Happy 60 Actually, right now I'm working on a book to help the world. And I could use a bit of help. I can pay you, and it'll be fun! 16
About collecting the stuff from Super-Duper Mart... Surprise 10 So, how's the scavving been? Got the food and medicine from that Super-Duper Mart? {Scavving is pronounced with a short "a" - it's an abbreviation of "scavenging"} 17
About the radiation... Surprise 10 Oh? Feeling a bit under the weather? Or a bit over the Geiger-counter? 18
About Minefield... Surprise 10 How are those hot little potatoes? 19
Fear 10 Because, you know, they're on the ground, like potatoes. And hot, because they, um, explode. {Lea realizes the phrase she used wouldn't make sense to anyone else, and loses steam part-way through explaining it.} 20
Happy 25 Anyway, what's up? 21
About Minefield... Surprise 10 How are those hot little potatoes? Or whatever. You know what I mean. {Lea realizes she's using a silly phrase.} 22
About the Mole Rats... Happy 25 Oh, I can't wait to hear how the repellent's working! 23
About the Mirelurks... Surprise 15 So, are they intelligent? Do they have a leader? Some sort of king? Or priests? Or some sort of scaly community center? 24
About this serious injury... Surprise 10 Well, how do you feel? 25
About Rivet City's history... Surprise 10 Any luck finding out how Rivet City got started? 26
About those robots... Surprise 10 Fiddle with any interesting technology, lately? 27
About the library... Surprise 20 Is it there? Are there books? Can I go borrow some? 28
GREETING Happy 25 Oh, hey! Kinda busy here, but I guess I can talk for a bit. What's up? {Sounding upbeat and energetic} 29
GREETING Surprise 25 Huh. Did you know the human body can survive without the stomach or spleen? Oh, what's up? 30
GREETING Surprise 25 You know, I think I've found a new way to prepare Radroach meat. Still tastes like old feet, though. Anyway, what's up with you? {distracted, preoccupied with her own musings} 31
GREETING Happy 50 Hey, don't mind the smell. I was just testing a few chemicals, but it's perfectly safe to breathe. Really! 32
GREETING Happy 25 What's up? Anything interesting out there in the wild Wasteland? 33
GREETING Happy 25 How's it going out there in the Wastes? 34
GREETING Neutral 50 Oh, hey! Kinda busy here, but I guess I can talk for a bit. What's up? {Sounding upbeat and energetic} 35
GREETING Neutral 50 Huh. Did you know the human body can survive without the stomach or spleen? Oh, what's up? 36
GREETING Neutral 50 Hey, don't mind the smoke. It's perfectly safe to breathe. Really! 37
GREETING Neutral 50 What's up? Anything interesting out there in the wild Wasteland? 38
GREETING Sad 10 Oh, hey. What's up? {sounding defeated and ground-down by work} 39
GREETING Sad 10 Hey, someone who doesn't have a cart for me to fix or a brahmin to wash up. That's a nice change. 40
GREETING Sad 5 Hope you don't mind the smell of brahmin dung. It's been one of those days. 41
GREETING Sad 10 Hey. How's the wide, wild Wasteland out there? {Sounding like someone envious of the ability to go out into the wasteland} 42
GREETING Neutral 50 Hi there! I'm Moira, it's a pleasure to meet you! I run Craterside Supply. 43
Neutral 50 If there's anything you need, anything at all, I probably got it layin' around in here somewhere. Don't be afraid to ask! 44
GREETING Neutral 50 Hey, you! What do you need? 45
GREETING Neutral 50 Have you seen a radiphlange anywhere around here? I could really use one... ah, nevermind. What can I get you? 46
GREETING Neutral 50 Good to see you! Did you bring me any junk? 47
HD01HouseStuff I hear you're the person to see about buying stuff for my house. Neutral 50 Good to see that old house finally found an owner. 48
Neutral 50 I have all sorts of items and themes for that place that may interest you. 49
I'm looking to buy some things for my house. Neutral 50 Of course! I have all sorts of items and themes for that place that may interest you. 50
HD01HouseStuff01 Can you tell me what the items do? Neutral 50 Of course I can! 51
Neutral 50 Which one in particular interests you? 52
HD01HouseStuff02 Tell me about your Themes. Happy 60 Some people don't like living in a boring old house. 53
Happy 50 Purchase a theme from me and I use all of my design abilities to set your place up in the manner you request. 54
Happy 50 You can choose from the Vault, Raider, Wasteland Explorer, Science, Love Machine or Pre-War Themes. 55
HD01HouseStuff02Clear I'd like to change my house's Theme. Neutral 50 Okay, consider it done. Anything else? 56
HD01HouseStuff03 Okay, let me take a look at your stuff. Happy 80 Sure thing! 57
HD01HouseStuff04 Enough about the house. Let's talk about something else. Neutral 50 Okay. 58
HD01HouseStuffSub01 Tell me about the My First Infirmary. Neutral 50 If you're wounded or you've hurt one of your limbs badly, this setup will allow you to heal it up as good as any other Wasteland Doctor. 59
HD01HouseStuffSub02 Tell me about the Jukebox. Neutral 50 If you feel like filling your place with a whole bunch of music, switch this beautiful pre-war antique on. 60
HD01HouseStuffSub03 Tell me about the My First Laboratory. Neutral 50 This setup is great for experimenting and coming up with all sorts of useful concoctions. 61
Neutral 50 It also can be used to get rid of any horrible addictions you may have from tasting your results! 62
HD01HouseStuffSub04 Tell me about the Nuka-Cola Machine. Neutral 50 One push of a button and you can get your hands on an Ice Cold Nuka-Cola! 63
HD01HouseStuffSub05 Tell me about the Workbench. Neutral 50 If you feel like tinkering and want to build some custom gizmos, this setup will help you do it. 64
HD01HouseStuffSub08 That's enough about the items. Neutral 50 Sounds good. 65
HD01HouseTheme01 I'm interested in the Vault Theme. Neutral 50 Feeling a bit homesick are we? 66
Neutral 50 Remember, once you buy a theme you can't sell it back to me, although you could always purchase a new one. 67
HD01HouseTheme02 I'm interested in the Raider Theme. Neutral 50 Into the blood and guts look, eh? 68
Neutral 50 Remember, once you buy a theme you can't sell it back to me, although you could always purchase a new one. 69
HD01HouseTheme03 I'm interested in the Wasteland Explorer Theme. Neutral 50 Longing for the great outdoors are we? 70
Neutral 50 Remember, once you buy a theme you can't sell it back to me, although you could always purchase a new one. 71
HD01HouseTheme04 I'm interested in the Science Theme. Neutral 50 You're the intellectual type, eh? 72
Neutral 50 Remember, once you buy a theme you can't sell it back to me, although you could always purchase a new one. 73
HD01HouseTheme05 I'm interested in the Pre-War Theme. Neutral 50 Feeling a bit nostalgic are we? 74
Neutral 50 Remember, once you buy a theme you can't sell it back to me, although you could always purchase a new one. 75
HD01HouseTheme05a I'm interested in the Love Machine Theme. Happy 70 Feeling a bit anxious are we? 76
Neutral 50 Remember, once you buy a theme you can't sell it back to me, although you could always purchase a new one. 77
HD01HouseTheme06 Let me ask about something else. Neutral 50 Sure. 78
HD01HouseThemeNo Actually, let me pick another Theme. Happy 50 Go right ahead! 79
HD01HouseThemeYes Sounds good to me. Neutral 50 Well then, let's make a deal! 80
LamplightHolotape1 LamplightHolotape1 Neutral 50 My name is Carrie Delaney. I teach fourth grade at the Early Dawn Elementary School, in Washington, D.C. {doing an audio journal, and really shaken up/afraid} 81
Neutral 50 Yesterday, October 23, 2077, half the school went on a field trip to Lamplight Caverns. We were packing up to leave whenà when everything went crazy. {doing an audio journal, and really shaken up/afraid} 82
Neutral 50 The caves started shaking, the lights went out, the kids started screaming. My God... Mister Pollack went outside to see what was going on. {doing an audio journal, and really shaken up/afraid} 83
Neutral 50 When he came back in, he told us what he saw. Clouds. Mushroom clouds. It's finally happened. The end of the world. {doing an audio journal, and really shaken up/afraid} 84
LamplightHolotape2 LamplightHolotape2 Neutral 50 We're all okay. If you can call being stuck in a cave with 82 terrified kids okay. Alive, anyway. But I don't know what the hell we're going to do. {doing an audio journal, and really shaken up/afraid} 85
Neutral 50 It's been 4 days. Claudia went out this morning to look around, and never came back. Then Mr. Cob went out to look for her, and HE never came back. {doing an audio journal, and really shaken up/afraid} 86
Neutral 50 So now there's only me, two other teachers, two of the parents who were chaperoning, and a few of the cavern staff. And all these poor kids. {doing an audio journal, and really shaken up/afraid} 87
Neutral 50 We've got enough food and water to last for awhile, I guess. But after that? I just don't know. We can't stay in here forever. Can we? {doing an audio journal, and really shaken up/afraid} 88
MS03AboutMinefield What do you know about Minefield? Fear 40 They say it was a town called Ridgefield, until slavers cleared it out. Now, it's supposedly cursed, and just a deathtrap to visitors. {Spooky, like telling a campfire story} 89
Neutral 50 Now, everyone calls the place "Minefield" and says it's a ghost town. Superstitious nonsense, of course, but that's how people think. You'll be fine. {Abruptly matter-of-fact} 90
MS03AlreadyDid1
MS03AlreadyDid
No need to test that theory. I've already found food and medicine there. Surprise 50 I guess you've been around a bit! So, tell me about what you found! 91
No need to test that theory. I've only found food there. Surprise 50 I guess you've been around a bit! So, tell me about what you found! 92
MS03AlreadyDid2 I'm already incredibly irradiated. Can't you tell? Surprise 50 Really? Oh, how convenient! 93
Happy 25 I might just be able to take care of that for you, but first let me do a little examination. How do you feel? 94
I'm already a bit irradiated. Check for yourself. Surprise 50 Really? Oh, how convenient! 95
Happy 25 I should be able to take care of that for you, but first let me do a little examination. How do you feel? 96
MS03AlreadyDid3 No need to bother testing this. I've already been to Minefield. Surprise 50 Really? Wow, tell me all about it? Did you get blown up? 97
MS03DamageMedicine1 Why get myself hurt? I'm a good enough doctor to explain this part for you. Sad 25 That'll save a lot of time and effort. Oh, and blood, on your part. A real-world example might help more, but I won't turn down the help! 98
Neutral 50 Oh, and here's your pay for it all. Guess you earned it by working smarter, not... um... more self-destructively. 99
MS03GuideExplanationA Hold on. I need to know more before I agree to anything. Neutral 50 Well, it's a dangerous place out there in the Wastes, right? People could really use a compilation of good advice. Like a Wasteland survival guide! 100
Neutral 50 For that, I need an assistant to test my theories. I wouldn't want anyone to get hurt because of a mistake. Nobody's ever happy when that happens. 101
Sad 50 No... Then they just yell a lot. At me. With mean, mean words. 102
MS03GuideExplanationB Wait. How? I mean, how many people even read anymore? Happy 75 Anyone who wants to learn from my Wasteland survival guide, that's who! And for that, I need a research assistant who can test my ideas for the book. 103
Fear 15 I mean, if our research is off, it could lead to horrific misinformation that causes the grisly and needless deaths of uncountable innocents. 104
Happy 25 But, you know, no pressure. So, will you help? 105
MS03GuideGreed Pay? What sort of pay? And what sort of work? Neutral 10 Let's see, dealing with radiation, testing an experimental device, and I won't lie, it may include some reading. That sort of stuff, you know? 106
Happy 50 But for all that, I can pay you with caps, meds, chems, and maybe even a few of those unique inventions, if you do a good job. Interested? 107
Pay? You just said the magic word. Name the target. Surprise 50 Target? Whoa, no, no, no! It's not that sort of job! No, I'm talking about researching things like surviving in the Wastes and such. 108
Fear 10 And I can offer caps and meds and a few of my inventions in return. I guess I can even get you some ammo, if that's more your style. 109
MS03GuideGreed2 It's tempting, but I'll have to pass. Sad 25 Well, you do what you have to, I suppose. But the offer'll still be open, if you change your mind. 110
Doesn't sound like my style. I'm out. Disgust 50 Oh sure, because the angel of death really needs a helping hand out there. I guess "almost everyone in the world" didn't quite meet his quota. {Nasty sarcasm} 111
Anger 50 Just stay out of my way until you reconsider that, okay? Some of us actually give a damn about the survival of the species. 112
MS03GuideGreedAccept Sounds good. Tell me more. Happy 50 Well, it's a dangerous place out there in the Wastes, right? People could really use a compilation of good advice. Like a Wasteland Survival Guide! 113
Neutral 50 For that, I need an assistant to test my theories. I wouldn't want anyone to get hurt because of a mistake. Nobody's ever happy when that happens. 114
Sad 50 No... Then they just yell a lot. At me. With mean, mean words. 115
MS03GuideRefusal Not interested. I'm just here to do some shopping. Sad 25 Well, okay, I guess. But I promise, you'll love it when you hear about the guide. Maybe later, huh? 116
MS03MoiraBookIntro What's this book you're working on? Happy 50 Well, it's a dangerous place out there in the Wastes, right? People could really use a compilation of good advice. Like a Wasteland Survival Guide! 117
Neutral 50 For that, I need an assistant to test my theories. I wouldn't want anyone to get hurt because of a mistake. Nobody's ever happy when that happens. 118
Sad 50 No... Then they just yell a lot. At me. With mean, mean words. 119
What's this book you're working on? Happy 25 I'm still working on that survival guide that I told you about. Great idea, but I need help to test some of the theories. 120
Happy 50 Oh, did you reconsider helping me out? Because that'd be super awesome! 121
Can I have that Armored Vault Suit? Surprise 25 Oh, sure. I mean, if you're going to be my assistant, it's in my best interest that you stay alive, right? 122
Happy 50 Besides, I guess the original owner isn't coming back to pick it up, so you're the closest thing to an inheritor. Here! 123
MS03MoiraCurrentWork How's the book coming? Happy 25 I'm still working out the kinks in the first chapter. I'm calling it, "Survive." 124
Neutral 50 It's about dealing with the day-to-day needs out there. Finding food and water, avoiding hazards like radiation and traps. That sort of stuff. 125
How's the book coming? Happy 25 Oh, I'm writing up the second chapter right now. It's called, "Thrive." 126
Neutral 50 It covers the various ways to get ahead and stay ahead of the various predators out there. And how to patch yourself up if you don't! 127
How's the book coming? Happy 25 In the last stretch, now! The last chapter's going to be called, "Revive." 128
Neutral 50 It's all about how we can rebuild society and humanity, learning how to use old tech, preserving knowledge, building communities, and so on. 129
Happy 25 It's a little ambitious, yeah. But why aim low, right? 130
How's the book coming? Neutral 50 Oh, I've been doing a bit of research into ways to communicate with Centaurs. I mean, they should be able to talk, since they're mostly human. 131
Neutral 50 Or, at least, parts of them are mostly human. Sort of. 132
How's the book coming? Neutral 50 I was considering a new way to make irradiated ground fertile again with some mixture of brahmin dung and crushed rad-away. 133
Neutral 50 Of course, even if that works, the real problem would be irrigating the fields. And that'd require water. 134
How's the book coming? Neutral 50 I've been contemplating the possibilities of domesticating Mole Rats. I know it seems a little gross, but milk is milk and meat is meat, right? 135
How's the book coming? Happy 5 I was playing with an idea for an elevated brahmin feeding system, so they don't have to strain their necks so much. 136
Disgust 5 But the caravan master said, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." 137
Sad 10 I guess that applies to improvements, too. Oh well. 138
How's the book coming? Sad 10 Just taking care of business, as always. 139
How's the book coming? Sad 10 Sorry, I can't really talk now. I've got lots of work to do. Lots of dull, dull work. 140
MS03MoiraGhoul1A
The bomb in town just blew up! You're lucky to be alive!
The bomb in town just blew up. You're lucky to be alive! Surprise 75 Wow! Who would have thought a town built around a bomb could be so dangerous? {Honestly surprised, and naive as hell.} 141
Happy 25 Good thing I wasn't in town at the time, huh? Man, that could have really done a number on me! 142
MS03MoiraGhoul1B I have no idea. I wasn't even here. <Lie.> Surprise 50 Same here! I had just gone down to Springvale to do some tests turns out you can't teach a giant ant new tricks and before I knew it, boom! {turns out the ants can't be taught tricks is an aside, as if she expects the player is really interested in her experiments} 143
Fear 50 Oh, I hope it wasn't that Nuka-Psycho brew I was working on. Who could have guessed it would react like that? {Honestly worried it may have been her fault that the town blew up.} 144
Happy 50 Still... At least I'm okay, huh? {Totally cheerful and oblivious to the fact that she's not okay at all.} 145
MS03MoiraGhoul1C I blew up your town. Maybe you shouldn't have built it around a bomb. Surprise 50 Don't be silly, why would you blow up our town? You're talking crazy-talk. {Dismissive "pfft!" noise at the start} 146
MS03MoiraGhoul2A How odd. It appears that the burst of radiation has turned you into a Ghoul. Surprise 50 Oh my goodness! Do you really think so? I'm becoming a Ghoul?! This is... This is... {Incredulous, uncertain between horror or excitement} 147
Happy 75 This is amazing! I never would have dreamed I'd get to study a change like this first-hand! {Wildly excited at the scientific possibilities} 148
Happy 50 Now, if only I had somewhere to stay during the process. Know anywhere where a ghoul can settle down for a bit? 149
I'm pretty sure you weren't always a Ghoul. Right? Fear 5 A Ghoul? What, me? What do you... {Confused and trailing off} 150
Surprise 75 Aaaah! Why am I Ghoul? Is this because of that explosion? {(startled scream at the beginning)Surprised, but not actually terrified} 151
Happy 30 Actually... This isn't too bad. I always was curious to do some tests involving Ghouls. Know anywhere where a ghoul like me can settle down? {Warming to the whole situation quickly} 152
MS03MoiraGhoul2B Moira, don't take this the wrong way, but you got ugly real fast. Fear 50 Don't be silly, I just got some gunk on my face after the explosion... but that doesn't explain why it peels away in strips. And oozes. {Dismissive, but slowly dawning fear} 153
Surprise 75 You know what? I think I'm turning into a Ghoul! 154
Happy 50 This is fascinating! Now, where can a Ghoul like me go to study these effects in peace? 155
MS03MoiraGhoul3A There's an entire Ghoul community in Underworld, downtown. Happy 50 Really? Then I guess I'll be heading there, to join my newfound family and their warm, smiling, and hideously pockmarked faces. 156
You'll just have to fit in with some other community. Good luck. Happy 50 You know, this is just the perfect excuse to visit Rivet City! 157
Happy 25 But while I'm heading downtown, I've been meaning to check out the museum. Who knows what I'll find? Anyway, see you downtown, one way or the other! 158
MS03MoiraGhoul3B Seems to me like that isn't my problem, stickyface. Happy 15 Huh. I guess you're right. Well, this seems like the perfect excuse to do some of that downtown exploring I've kept putting off. 159
Happy 35 Guess there's no time like the present. Ta-ta! 160
MS03MoiraGhoulExplosion1 It was a job. Sorry, nothing personal. Anger 10 Well, okay, as long as you're sorry. But I expect you to apologize to everyone else in town, okay? And don't do it again! {like a scolding school-teacher} 161
Fear 10 Now, what am I going to do about work? And what's with the weird look? Have I got something on my face? 162
MS03MoiraGhoulExplosion2 Who needs a reason? Explosions are pretty. Happy 25 Yeah, they really are, aren't they? {Kind of lost in thought at the mention of pretty explosions. End with a dreamy sigh.} 163
Surprise 15 And I guess this is what the ascension mumbo-jumbo atom-cultists wanted, too. So, nice of you to help them like that, I guess. 164
Neutral 50 Now, what am I going to do about work? And what's with the weird look? Have I got something on my face? 165
MS03MoiraGhoulExplosion3 I was trying to shut you up for good. Now I'll have to finish the job. Surprise 50 Wait, what? 166
MS03MoiraGhoulWho Moira? Is that you? You don't look so good. Anger 25 Oh, that's a real nice thing to say. Of course it's me! {A little insulted about being told she doesn't look very good.} 167
Fear 15 What's with the weird look? Don't you remember who I am? Did you hurt your head in that big explosion? {Thinks the player may have gotten brain damage.} 168
MS03MoiraIntroduction What do you do here? Happy 25 Why, I'm an inventor, a tinkerer, and a general genius of junk. One person's junk is another's treasure, you know. 169
Happy 50 And traders bring in lots of junk, so I get dibs on anything particularly nifty. Sure, I don't have as much to sell, but it's more fun this way! 170
What do you do here? Happy 50 Moira Brown, inventor, tinkerer, and general genius of junk. One person's junk is another's treasure, you know. 171
What do you do here? Sad 10 My name's Moira Brown. I take care of basics around here. Nothing fancy. 172
Sad 15 I used to work on all sorts of things, but that seems like it was a long time ago. 173
MS03PersonalData I've been thinking about your experiments. Can I ask you something personal? Happy 25 Why, I'm flattered! What would you like to know? 174
I've been thinking about the guide. Can I ask you something? Happy 25 Absolutely. I'll bet you haven't been thinking about the guide as much as I have! 175
Can I ask you about your work and how my research fits into it? Happy 25 Sure thing, I'm an open book! What do you want to know? 176
What do you do here? Happy 25 Why, I'm an inventor, a tinkerer, and a general genius of junk. One person's junk is another's treasure, you know. 177
Happy 50 And traders bring in lots of junk, so I get dibs on anything particularly nifty. Sure, I don't have as much to sell, but it's more fun this way! 178
What do you do here? Sad 10 Not much, nowadays. I just sell stuff people need, and fix up the caravans when they come into town. 179
Sad 25 It's not all that interesting, but it helps out here and there. Guess I can't hope to do more than that, huh? {Depressed} 180
MS03PersonalExit
MS03MoiraPersonalExit
That'll do. Happy 25 Fine by me. I'm always glad to talk! 181
MS03PrintingRequestB Let me guess. You need me to go print and distribute it, right? Happy 25 So cynical! No, no, I can take care of all that with a few traders I know. What makes you think I'd force you to handle something so dangerous? {Playfully scolding.} 182
Happy 50 Now, you should just lie back and bask in the praise for helping with the book! 183
MS03QuestBeginAcceptA Sounds like a great idea! I can't wait to help! Happy 25 Good enthusiasm! Now, I think the first chapter will have to be about surviving day-to-day dangers. 184
Neutral 50 Things like where it is and isn't safe to find food, the dangers of radiation, and how to avoid and even profit from dangerous landmines. 185
Happy 25 Ooh, sounds like fun, doesn't it? Which do you want to do first? 186
MS03QuestBeginAcceptB Okay, I guess I'll help with this "Survival Guide." Happy 25 All right, then! Now, I think the first chapter will have to be about surviving day-to-day dangers. 187
Neutral 50 Things like where it is and isn't safe to find food, the dangers of radiation, and how to avoid and even profit from dangerous landmines. 188
Happy 25 Ooh, sounds like fun, doesn't it? Which do you want to do first? 189
MS03QuestBeginRejectA I'm afraid I'm going to have to pass. Sorry. Fear 50 But, don't you like the idea? I mean, it's a good idea, right? 190
Sad 25 Well, I'll still be here if you change your mind. Plenty to work on without that book, anyway. 191
MS03QuestBeginRejectB Hell no, crazy girl. I won't be your lab rat. Fear 50 What? Really? But... Please? 192
Fear 25 Well, I'll still be here if you change your mind. Plenty to work on without that book, anyway. 193
MS03QuestCompletedA It was hardly any work at all. How's it look? Happy 30 Looks good! I mean, it could be better, but nothing's perfect. And it's not like bad advice ever hurt anyone, right? 194
Happy 25 I'll share these with the traders, and soon, everyone will know about the Wasteland Survival Guide! 195
Happy 60 But before that, here's your complimentary copy, complete with my compliments. Good work, Wasteland survival assistant! 196
Thanks, I'm pretty proud of it. So how's the final product? Happy 50 Oh, it's great! Why, with the information here, we'll save hundreds of lives. Maybe even thousands! 197
Happy 40 I'll share these with the traders, and soon, everyone will know about the Wasteland Survival Guide! 198
Happy 70 But first, here! The very first copy of our book goes to you. I couldn't have done it without you, my Wasteland survival expert! 199
It certainly was an epic piece of work. So, is the final product worth it? Surprise 60 Oh my... It's brilliant! Even I'm astounded by my genius! No, it's more than that. By OUR genius! 200
Happy 50 I'll share these with the traders, and soon, everyone will know about the Wasteland Survival Guide! 201
Happy 80 But now, the very first copy of our book goes to you. It wouldn't nearly as good without your input. You're the real Wasteland survival guru! 202
MS03QuestCompletedB I'm just glad I can stop getting stabbed, irradiated, and shot for your science. Sad 25 I know it was a lot to ask, but we made a great piece! And it's bound to help humanity, you know. 203
Happy 20 I'll share these with the traders, and soon, everyone will know about the Wasteland Survival Guide! 204
Happy 40 But before that, here's your complimentary copy, complete with my compliments. Good work, Wasteland survival assistant! 205
I went through a lot of pain for that. It had better be worth it. Happy 30 And if it wasn't for that fearless fortitude and sacrifice for science, it wouldn't have been made. It'll be a tremendous boon to humanity, you know. 206
Happy 20 I'll share these with the traders, and soon, everyone will know about the Wasteland Survival Guide! 207
Happy 60 But first, here the very first copy of our book goes to you. I couldn't have done it without you, my Wasteland survival expert! 208
I should hope so. I nearly killed myself a half dozen times for that thing. Happy 60 And those risks will have saved hundreds no, thousands of lives! Your quality research really took it to the next level, you know! {excited emphasis on "THOUSANDS!"} 209
Happy 40 I'll share these with the traders, and soon, everyone will know about the Wasteland Survival Guide! 210
Happy 70 But now, the very first copy of our book goes to you. It wouldn't nearly as good without your input. You're the real Wasteland survival guru! 211
MS03QuestRewards Tell me more about the pay. Neutral 50 Oh, caps, chems, meds, and maybe even a few unique inventions, if you do a good job. I'm sure I've got something that'll catch your eye. 212
Happy 35 With a little ingenuity, you can turn a pile of junk into a mountain of caps! And there's no shortage of junk! So, will you help out? 213
MS03RadiationScience1
MS03RadiationScienceOption1
Fear not! With my vast scientific knowledge, I explain this one myself. Sad 25 Oh, but nothing beats a real-world example. And I have a new rad treatment I was just itching to try out on a live subject! 214
Neutral 50 But I guess you're right, and at least it keeps you safe and sound for later testing. Here's some spare chems for your help. 215
MS03ReasonExit Okay, I can tell how much it means to you. Let's get this book finished. Sad 10 Really? You really mean that? You think my book really could help humanity? {As if very sad but just offered a glimpse of hope.} 216
MS03ReasonExit2A Yes, I really do. Happy 25 Well... Thanks. That really means a lot to me, you know? {Comforted} 217
Happy 60 Now, let's get this book finished! 218
MS03ReasonExit2B No. It's a terrible idea. Don't even try. Surprise 50 But! But! But! {As if stunned by the player's betrayal.} 219
Sad 50 Well... okay. I guess helping out with the caravans is good enough. 220
Sad 50 Look, if you ever stop by the caravans around here, I could probably get you a deal. I guess that's like helping humanity. 221
MS03ReasonForGuide Why do you really want to write this guide? Neutral 50 Well, it'll help humanity rebuild, right? I mean, who doesn't want to help humanity? 222
Happy 10 Besides, it's bound to work out better than some of my other projects. I mean, with you helping, and all, how could it go wrong? 223
MS03ReasonForGuide2A Well, it's a big undertaking, and we've got to make sure we do it right. Happy 40 Oh, believe me, I know! I've been a bit careless with other projects, but this... This is important! This means something! {This is important! This means something! part should be spoken in the manner of Close Encounters of the Third Kind.} 224
MS03ReasonForGuide2B What do you mean about your other projects? Have there been problems? Sad 40 Well, a little before you first arrived, one of my experiments had a little accident. {Hesitant pause before "accident".} 225
Surprise 25 I mean, how could I have predicted the Centaur would think my assistant smelled tasty? 226
Happy 25 But nothing bad like that could happen with this book. It's a great plan, and it'll make up for everything else! 227
MS03ReasonForGuide3A I think you're right. Now, let's get back to work on this book! Happy 50 You got it, super research assistant! Hey, I should get you a costume or something! 228
MS03ReasonForGuide3B Okay, but it could be bad if the book's misleading. People could get hurt. Fear 40 Oh, I hadn't really thought about it like that. I don't want anyone to get hurt. That's the last thing the guide should do! 229
Anger 25 Well, we're just going to have to make sure it's accurate and useful and great, then! You and me! Together, we can research and write a masterpiece! 230
MS03ReasonForGuide3C
Moira, please don't write the book. It will just turn out badly.
This really isn't a good idea. Please don't write it. It'll just turn out badly. Sad 60 You... You really think so? But I thought I was so brilliant... 231
Sad 30 I suppose you're right. I wouldn't want anyone else to get hurt because of my foolish ideas. I'll just stick to helping the caravans. 232
Sad 15 Hey, if you're ever around again, stop by. I'll see if I can get you a deal on repairs, I guess. 233
MS03ReasonForHelp Why can't you do this research yourself? Surprise 10 Oh, I haven't got nearly the experience in the Wastes that you do. If I tried half of these things, I'd get my head blown off! 234
Neutral 50 At least you look like you can really handle yourself out there. All I'm good at is coming up with the ideas and fiddling with junk for caravans. 235
MS03ReasonForHelp2A It's really good of you to try to help people like this. Happy 25 I know, right? I figured, instead of just helping out the caravans with odd junk, why not put my brilliant mind to work for everyone? 236
Happy 50 And between my mind and your experience, this guide'll save a dozen times more lives than those greedy merchants will. 237
MS03ReasonForHelp2B It sounds like you don't know what you're doing. Anger 50 I know exactly what I'm doing. I'm trying to help mankind survive and rebuild! It's important, and I need your help. 238
Anger 25 It's a hell of a lot better than wasting my talents with the caravans, repairing cart axles and coming up with new ways to shovel brahmin crap! 239
MS03ReasonForHelp3A Well, I'm proud to be a part of it. You can count on me! Happy 50 That's the spirit, trusty research assistant! 240
MS03ReasonForHelp3B I don't know. Those caravans help a lot of people. Neutral 50 Well, I guess they do bring important supplies here and there. But still, I can help out so much more than the boring old stuff they do. 241
Happy 25 Writing this book will make a huge difference, trust me! 242
MS03ReasonForHelp3C Seriously, don't waste time with this book. Stick to helping the caravans. Sad 50 I... Well... Okay. 243
Sad 25 I guess you're right. It was a silly idea. I'll just stick to doing what's important. 244
Sad 10 Hey, if you're ever around again, stop by. I'll see if I can get you a deal on repairs, I guess. 245
MS03ReasonForWorking Why are you always working on such weird ideas? Disgust 40 Well, look around at the world we live in. It may be okay to you, but I've read about what it used to be like, and this wasn't it. 246
Anger 25 So we all need something that keeps us going, despite all the terrible things around us. For me, it's things like this book. 247
MS03ReasonForWorking2A I don't understand. Crazy experiments are what keep you going? Sad 10 No. It's like... Did you ever try to put a broken piece of glass back together? Even if the pieces fit, you can't make it whole again the way it was. {Hesitatingly, having trouble putting her feelings into words.} 248
Happy 10 But if you're clever, you can still use the pieces to make other useful things. Maybe even something wonderful, like a mosaic. {Hesitatingly, having trouble putting her feelings into words.} 249
Disgust 10 Well, the world broke just like glass. And everyone's trying to put it back together like it was, but it'll never come together the same way. {Hesitatingly, having trouble putting her feelings into words.} 250
MS03ReasonForWorking2B But why do you waste your talents on this garbage? Anger 10 It's not garbage! But don't be fooled - it is junk. It's just that junk's pretty important stuff, you know? {Emphasis on the "IS" on "it is junk."} 251
Happy 10 Junk can be turned into all sorts of useful things. And sometimes, even something wonderful. 252
Sad 20 And junk's all we've got left after the world blew up. Everyone's trying to fix it like it was, but nobody's trying to make something that's better. 253
MS03ReasonForWorking3A So you're trying to make the world better than it was? Happy 10 Hey, it sounds crazy when you say it that way, but that's what I'm aiming for, yeah. 254
Happy 25 The Wasteland Survival Guide isn't much towards that lofty goal, but it's an important one. 255
Sad 25 And that's why I need your help. I don't think I can do it alone. {Almost pleading} 256
MS03ReasonForWorking3B I don't know. Human nature doesn't change like that. Sad 25 Maybe. I've certainly heard people say that. But isn't it also human nature to try to do better than we always have? 257
Sad 10 Please, I've got to at least try to make the world better. And I can't do it on my own. I need your help. {Almost pleading} 258
MS03ReasonForWorking3C But why try with this book, when you could be helping out in real ways here? Disgust 40 What, helping the trade caravans with idiotic chores? Repairing carts and fixing up sick Brahmin? 259
Anger 25 There's got to be something more worthwhile that I can do to help humanity! 260
MS03ReasonForWorking4 You don't have the experience for a book like this. You'll be a laughingstock. Surprise 20 But that's why I'm getting your help! I know my flaws, and with your help, we can make something great for the world! 261
Sad 40 Please? It's just so... important. For everything. {Pleading} 262
MS03ReasonForWorking5 It will just get us hurt. You don't want to hurt anyone, do you? Sad 50 No... No, you're right, I don't. I mean, I've already gotten you hurt a couple times, haven't I? 263
Disgust 50 You're right. I can't go on with this book. What if the advice is bad and people get hurt because of it? I deserve to work on the caravans. 264
Sad 25 Please, if you find time out from your own important work... try to stop by the caravans and say hi. I'll see if I can get you a deal. 265
MS03RivetCityQuestion What's Rivet City? Neutral 50 Oh, it's this huge city on a ship where the river meets downtown! It's been around for as long as I can remember. You should really check it out. 266
MS03RoboticsExpert
MS03TechnicalGenius
I could just write that section for you. Trust me I'm an expert. Happy 25 Practically speak robot, do you? As long as you don't write it all in ones and zeroes, then I guess it'll be fine. Thanks! 267
Happy 50 In fact, here: just in case you expertise fails you, a few pulse grenades, and my old science textbook. Enjoy! 268

I guess I can check the Super-Duper Mart again. Happy 10 Oh, great! Food is most important, but see if you can get medicine, too. And if there's nothing to find, then just come back in one piece, okay? 269
Okay, I'll check the Super-Duper Mart. Happy 10 Oh, great! Food is most important, but see if you can get medicine, too. And if there's nothing to find, then just come back in one piece, okay? 270
I'll test out the Repellent for you. Happy 50 It'll be easy. One tap with the applicator, and it overwhelms their senses with a sort of "feel-bad" sensation. Then they're gone before you know it! 271
Happy 25 You could test it out on just a few Mole Ratties, but for real testing, try it on ten or more. There should be plenty in the Tepid Sewers, downtown. 272
Sounds reasonable. I'll research Rivet City's history. Happy 50 Oh, now I can't wait for what you find out down there! And check around to make sure you're hearing the real deal! 273
MS03TaskAccept2
MS07TaskAccept2
I suppose nothing beats a real-world example. I'll get myself irradiated. Happy 50 Now, that's the adventurous scientific spirit! Go on out there and get good and fried! 274
Happy 25 Oh, but not so much that you can't come back. 200 rads should be enough to get a reading, although 600 or more would be more useful! 275
Happy 50 Trust me, I'll make sure you're okay! I've got some good ideas for a cure! 276
Okay, I'll get irradiated. Just be ready to fix me up when I get back. Happy 50 Oh, you're a peach! Or, at least, some sort of hardy fruit that grows in the savagely irradiated mockery of agriculture we have nowadays. 277
Neutral 50 Now, 200 rads should be enough for basic sickness, but if you can get 600 or more rads, my tests will be even more accurate. 278
Happy 25 Just make sure you can get back here, and I'll see to it that you're well taken care of! 279
All right, I'll try. Happy 25 That's great. I recommend the nest at the Anchorage War Memorial. I knew a trader who talked about the Mirelurks down there. 280
Neutral 25 Just go inside and find one of their spawning pods, probably down near the water. Put this observer inside, and get out quietly. 281
Fear 10 And be sure not to kill any Mirelurks inside their nest! If you do, it could ruin the validity of the study! 282
Just go in and connect the widget to the mainframe? I can do that. Happy 25 Yeah, you should just be able to plug it into the mainframe at the RobCo production facility. It'll give you access to the robots and terminals. 283
Happy 10 Okay, here. And be sure to keep an eye peeled for any other examples of how to make old technology work for you out there! 284

MS07TaskAccept3
Nothing beats a real-world example, they say. I'll get myself injured. Happy 75 There's my brave research assistant! Go out and get bashed up. For the good of mankind! 285
Happy 50 Just make sure you stay alive and get back here! That's important! I can't stress that enough! 286
I guess I'll get hurt eventually. Might as well come here when I do. Surprise 50 Wow, what a great research assistant you are! I mean really, that's dedication. Demonstrating how to withstand pain by getting injured? Wow. 287
Happy 25 When you're ready, come back here with some serious injuries, maybe a crippled limb or two, and I'll take notes and fix you up. 288
Fear 25 I'll be waiting here with plenty of bandages for you. So don't worry, and just go get horribly injured. Oh, and be careful! 289
I suppose, for the sake of proper research, I can go back into Minefield. Happy 10 Oh, don't worry. No one ever goes there because they say it's a ghost town. And since ghosts don't exist, you can just focus on the landmines. 290
Happy 50 I hear there's a playground in the middle of the town. Reach that point and come back, and I'm sure you'll have some stories to tell! 291
I'll head into Minefield. Wish me luck. Happy 10 Oh, don't worry. No one ever goes there because they say it's a ghost town. And since ghosts don't exist, you can just focus on the landmines. 292
Happy 50 I hear there's a playground in the middle of the town. Reach that point and come back, and I'm sure you'll have some stories to tell! 293
Okay, I'll check out my local library. Happy 25 Great! The library should be in old Arlington, not far from downtown. See if you can download the archives from its computer. 294
Happy 50 If you can't get those, then even the card catalog would be useful. Any little piece of information could help the book. And thus, humanity! 295
MS03TaskBackToChoose I don't think I want to do that one. Happy 5 Okay, so where'd you like to start? 296
I don't think I want to do that one. Neutral 50 Okay, I suppose we can put that one off for a bit. 297
MS03TaskBegin I'm ready to begin researching the book, now. Happy 10 Well, I think the first chapter will have to be about surviving day-to-day dangers. 298
Neutral 50 Things like where it is and isn't safe to find food, the dangers of radiation, and how to avoid and even profit from dangerous landmines. 299
Happy 25 Ooh, sounds like fun, doesn't it? Which do you want to do first? 300
I'm ready to start researching the last chapter. Happy 5 The last chapter's a bit more esoteric. It's about the survival of humanity as a whole, and how to rebuild society. Deep stuff, huh? 301
Neutral 50 We need to know how large settlements are formed, how to harness the old technology, and I'll need you to get ancient history from a nearby library. 302
Happy 25 We're in the last stretch, now, so let's finish it up strong! What first? 303
I'm ready to start researching the next chapter. Neutral 50 The second chapter's going to be a bit trickier, I think. It'll cover how to handle creatures out there, for better or for worse. 304
Neutral 50 For example, repelling Mole Rats, learning about Mirelurks, and when all else fails, how to handle being injured. 305
Neutral 50 So, let's buckle down and get to work on this chapter. What first? 306
I'm ready to continue research on the first chapter. Neutral 50 I still need to study a living specimen with radiation poisoning. 307
Neutral 50 I need someone to research how to travel through a minefield. 308
Happy 25 And that'll cover the first section of the book. Which strikes your fancy? 309
I'm ready to continue research on the first chapter. Neutral 50 I've got to see how safe it is to scavenge food from one of those huge stores out there. 310
Neutral 50 I need someone to research how to travel through a minefield. 311
Happy 25 And that'll cover the first section of the book. Which strikes your fancy? 312

Neutral 50 I still need to study a living specimen with radiation poisoning. 314
Sad 25 And that'll cover the first section of the book. Which strikes your fancy? 315
The last part of this chapter is about radiation, right? Happy 5 Well, I know lots about radiation from books... and personal experience, obviously. {A little sheepish} 316
Disgust 15 But I need to see how radiation effects normal, not-so-gooey humans. I never seem to get a live example to study. Not for long, anyway. 317
Surprise 25 So I need you to get a bit of radiation poisoning so I can study its effects. Oh, not a deadly dose, of course - I can fix you up before that! {A little hesitant about requesting this of the player.} 318
The last part of this chapter is about radiation, right? Disgust 25 Yes, that's what I need your help on. I know lots about it from books, but I never seem to get a live example. Not for long, anyway. 319
Surprise 25 So I need you to get a bit of radiation poisoning so I can study its effects. Oh, not a deadly dose, of course - I can fix you up before that! {A little hesitant about requesting this of the player.} 320
The last task for this chapter is getting food, right? Happy 50 Well, food and medicine. Everyone needs them once in a while, right? So they need a good place to find them! 321
Happy 25 There's an old Super-Duper Mart not far from here. I need to know if a place like that still has any food or medicine left in it. 322
Let's finish up the chapter with that landmine research. Happy 25 Landmines are one of the few dangers out there that you can profit from. Disarm one before it blows, and you can sell it for plenty of caps. 323
Happy 10 I've heard stories about a ghost town that's just full of mines. Traders just call the place "Minefield." 324
Happy 25 Sounds like the place for some fieldwork! Get in there, get back, and tell me all about it. And could you bring back a mine for my studies? 325
Let's finish up the chapter with that landmine research. Happy 25 Landmines are one of the few dangers out there that you can profit from. Disarm one before it blows, and you can sell it for plenty of caps. 326

Happy 25 Sounds like the place for some fieldwork! Get in there, get back, and tell me all about it. And could you bring back a mine for my studies? 328
I'm ready for more research on the second chapter. Neutral 50 There's a sort of Mole Rat repellant I've developed. I need it to be tested on a few Mole Rats before I can say it's a success. 329
Neutral 50 There's a lot we don't know about Mirelurks and how intelligent and dangerous they are. That definitely deserves research. 330
Happy 25 And that should be it for the second chapter. Which do you want to check out? 331
I'm ready for more research on the second chapter. Neutral 50 There's a sort of Mole Rat repellant I've developed. I need it to be tested on a few Mole Rats before I can say it's a success. 332
Fear 25 I hesitate to ask, but I'll need to examine the effects of serious physical trauma. I wouldn't ask if I couldn't fix you up afterwards, of course! 333
Sad 25 And that should be it for the second chapter. Which do you want to check out? 334
I'm ready for more research on the second chapter. Neutral 50 There's a lot we don't know about Mirelurks and how intelligent and dangerous they are. That definitely deserves research. 335
Fear 25 I hesitate to ask, but I'll need to examine the effects of serious physical trauma. I wouldn't ask if I couldn't fix you up afterwards, of course! 336
Sad 25 And that should be it for the second chapter. Which do you want to check out? 337
The last task for this chapter is something about Mole Rats, right? Happy 10 Mole Rats can burrow into almost anything and cause a lot of trouble. So I figured I'd make a chemical repellent stick for people to shoo them off. 338
Happy 25 But I need it to be tested before I put the recipe to paper in the guide. So I need you to find some Mole Rats and test it out a bit. 339
Okay, let's do that injury research to finish up this chapter. Fear 25 Great! I never get to study anyone who's severely injured. Not without them crying to be fixed right away or trying to bleed out and all that. 340
Happy 25 But obviously, you can handle a lot of abuse, so if I'm ever going to find a good example of human anatomy and injury resistance, it'd be you. 341
Happy 10 Next time you get badly injured, return here so I can examine you before I heal you up. I mean, you're going to get yourself hurt anyway, right? 342
The last part of this chapter is about Mirelurks, right? Happy 10 Yes, knowing more about them can help people learn to avoid, or even outsmart them. 343
Happy 25 So I picked up this observer device to study them in their natural habitat. I need you to hide one in one of the spawning pods in their lairs. 344
I'm ready to continue research on the last chapter. Neutral 50 I want to find out the history of how a successful settlement like Rivet City got started. 345
Neutral 50 I've also got to do a section on working with old computer electronics, so there's some research to be done in the old RobCo Production facility. 346
Happy 25 And that'll be it for the last chapter. So, what'll it be? 347
I'm ready to continue research on the last chapter. Neutral 50 I want to find out the history of how a successful settlement like Rivet City got started. 348
Happy 40 Also, there used to be a big library out there. Imagine, a whole building full of books! I'll need you to gather information there for me. 349
Happy 25 And that'll be it for the last chapter. So, what'll it be? 350
I'm ready to continue research on the last chapter. Neutral 50 I've got to do a section on working with old computer electronics, so there's some research to be done in the old RobCo Production facility. 351
Happy 40 Also, there used to be a big library out there. Imagine, a whole building full of books! I'll need you to gather information there for me. 352
Happy 25 And that'll be it for the last chapter. So, what'll it be? 353
The last part of this chapter is about researching local history, right? Neutral 50 Yes, Rivet City's in particular. It's the most successful survivor settlement around, but no one here really knows how it started. 354
Happy 25 Of course, that's why it's important to know how a place like that succeeded. So I need you to go there and do some researching! 355
The last subject is old technology, right? No challenge for... The Mechanist! Happy 60 Oh, this is so exciting! I feel like I'm sending you out on some sort of super-assignment! Okay, okay. Give me a moment to calm down... 356
Neutral 50 Now then, a trader gave me this bit of electronics from the RobCo factory. It ought to go into some mainframe in there to control the robots. 357
Happy 50 If there's a way to reactivate and control the robots there, it'd make for a good example of harnessing the past's technology for the book! 358
The last subject is old technology, right? Sounds interesting. Happy 10 It does, doesn't it? I mostly just deal with it after it's junked. But a trader gave me this bit of electronics from the RobCo factory. 359
Happy 50 If there's a way to reactivate and control the robots there, it'd make for a good example of harnessing the past's technology for the book! 360
The last part of this chapter is about the library, right? Happy 25 Yes. Books are where the old world kept its knowledge, and libraries are where it kept the books. And there's supposed to be one in Arlington. 361
Happy 50 See if it's still there, and if you can download records from its computer. Information dumps like those would be invaluable for rebuilding humanity! 362
MS03TaskBreak I'm taking a break from the research. Anger 10 Don't take to long. The sooner the book's done, the more people we can save with it! 363
I'm taking a break from the research. Anger 10 Well, okay. If you feel you really need one. 364
I'm taking a break from the research. Happy 10 Feel free! Gotta have my super researcher in tip-top condition to work, right? 365
I'm taking a break from the research. Disgust 10 Well, I can't force you to work, I suppose. 366
MS03TaskCompleteBasic Well, I've got the food. But no luck with the medicine. Surprise 25 Really? No medicine at all? None? Seriously? Well, I guess I should have expected that. It's been a long time, after all. 367
Happy 25 But you certainly did research a couple risks of those big stores. Tell me all about it! 368
I don't feel well. I think I've got a bit of radiation sickness. Anger 10 Hrm... I suppose a little radiation poisoning is better than none at all. Well, not normally, of course. Unless you like that sort of thing, I guess. 369
Neutral 50 So, let me do a little examination. How do you feel? 370
I went in and got back, no problems. Happy 40 I'll bet you didn't see any ghosts, either. So, tell me about the landmines. Did you get blown up? 371
Happy 20 But sure, sniper, shooting, yadda, yadda, yadda. Tell me about the landmines. Did you get blown up? {Like an excitable kid} 372
I went in there and a sniper started shooting at me! Happy 40 See? I told you it wasn't a ghost. Science, one. Superstition, zero! 373
Happy 20 But sure, sniper, shooting, yadda, yadda, yadda. Tell me about the landmines. Did you get blown up? {Like an excitable kid} 374
I tested the Repellent on a few Mole Rats. Surprise 20 Just a few? Well, I'm sure it'll be good enough. 375
Happy 25 So, how did my chemical repellent work? Safe and clean like a charm, I'll bet! 376
I set the observer, but I don't think they'll forget my visit anytime soon. Fear 25 Oh, no. You didn't rile them up, did you? Because I'm not getting a very good signal from the observer. 377
Disgust 50 I think they buried it in the mud. Oh, I really hope that was just mud. 378
Neutral 50 Anyway, you saw them, at least a bit. What are your observations about them? 379
You'd better be a good doctor. Happy 30 Well, lucky for you that I am! At least, pretty good. Good enough to fix this up, at least. {Slightly decreasing confidence over the course of this line.} 380
Neutral 50 You wouldn't happen to have a broken limb, would you? No? Well, never mind. Now, can you describe how you feel? 381
I asked a couple people about Rivet City's history, but it may not be reliable. Sad 10 Well, if it's all you could find out, I guess it'll have to do. So, what did they say? 382
I was able to get the robots online again, but I couldn't control them. Happy 25 Oh great! Reactivating long-dormant technology is definitely a good step towards the survival of humanity as a whole. 383
Sad 25 Then again, maybe it's more dangerous if it's active but uncontrolled. How did it turn out? 384
I found the library and checked the catalogue, but that's all I could get. Fear 40 Well... That's not really much use for the book, I'm afraid. But thanks for checking. 385
Fear 25 So, how's the place looking? How long before I can go over and borrow a couple good novels? 386

It's got a lot more food than most places, but I wasn't the only one there. Neutral 50 It makes sense that there'd be a few Raiders there. But if that's the only concern, that hardly makes it worse than anywhere else out there. 387
Happy 25 Well, keep what you got. Just traded for a big food shipment, myself. Here, take a bit, my treat - the taste kind of grates after a while. 388
Itchiness, sores, and so forth. Not the worst I've had, but still not fun. Happy 25 Well, here's hoping you don't have to get anything worse for a while, huh? 389

Happy 10 Okay, lie back and think healthy thoughts... 391
No, but it was a close call. Moving slow and staying off the dirt helped. Neutral 50 I guess placement of each step would be critical, wouldn't it? Especially if each one could be your last. 392
Happy 25 I know you may not want to see any more explosives for a while, but obviously you know your way around them. Have a couple rainy-day toys of mine. 393
I don't think it works like you hoped. The Mole Rats all died. Sad 50 That's not how it was supposed to work at all! The poor little Mole Ratties with their little noses! That's just horrible! {As insufferably cute and petulant as possible, especially when saying "Mole Ratties"} 394
Sad 25 I guess it's back to the drawing board for that repellent. I wonder if I can make it into some sort of fuel. Anyway, I'll just take that. 395

According to them, it was all set up by one upper deck resident. Surprise 50 Really? That's pretty unbelievable! 401

Disgust 10 Oh well. Still, for your help, have a few of these. They may help out next time you need to talk to a few folks. 403
It was easy enough to attach the unit. The mainframe took care of the rest. Surprise 10 Good thing I had it, then. Otherwise, it wouldn't have worked. Of course, you also wouldn't have been there. Still... {Lea gets slightly confused at her hypothetical situation.} 404

Yeah, it's still there. The Brotherhood's even trying to clear out the place. Disgust 50 Oh, it's about time! I guess everyone else is watching out for their precious guns, food, and loved ones first. No time for books. {Derisively - What could possibly be more important than books?} 406

Happy 25 Okay, lie back and think healthy thoughts... 412
Technically, it's the landmines that blow up, not me. And no, I didn't. Happy 10 Oh, I never get to discuss semantics with anyone anymore! People are always like, "No time to debate linguistic constructs, we need to get food." {Using a mocking voice for the quote} 413

You added too much chemical stimulant. The result was rather explosive. Surprise 25 Explosive, you say? That's kind of impressive, actually. In a horrible sort of way, at least. 416

Happy 25 Of course, since I am here, I might as well take care of you now. It's the least I could do. {Emphasis on the "AM"} 422
There's simply too many stories, and not enough evidence to support any of them. Anger 25 Well, I suppose that sort of thing happens, occasionally. But I guess if that's all that can be uncovered, what else is there to go on? 423
Neutral 50 Oh well. Still, for your help, have a few of these. They may help out next time you need to talk to a few folks. 424
Installation was much easier than reaching the mainframe in the first place. Surprise 20 Say what you will about the dead folks of the past, but they designed a lot of their stuff so even idiots could use it. No offense, of course. 425

The Raiders were using the pharmacy as a place to store their best gear. Surprise 25 So, you're saying that they acquired a well-protected stash? I wonder how many other places are hiding treasures behind monsters, hrm? 544
Neutral 50 Well, keep what you got. Just traded for a big food shipment, myself. Here, take a bit, my treat - the taste kind of grates after a while. 545
Happy 25 Oh, and take this! It's an old Food Sanitizer. Just carry it with you, and it should automatically make most food and drink more, um... better. 546
If I listen closely, I can hear my genes crying. Disgust 25 So, you're experiencing delusions, too? Fascinating! 547
Happy 25 Now, after taking a few notes, I'll take care of that nasty radiation with a bit of my own home-made concoction. 548
Happy 50 I've never had a chance to test it out on someone so heavily dosed, but I'm sure it'll work out fine. Exciting, isn't it? 549
Watch the details and look for broken patterns. That's where the traps are. Surprise 25 That's so true. For all of life, really. But especially the parts involving landmines. {As if considering something profound.} 550
Happy 10 I know you may not want to see any more explosives for a while, but obviously you know your way around them. Have a couple rainy-day toys of mine. 551
Surprise 10 And looking at this landmine, it gives me an idea. It's a terrible device that does terrible things, of course. But it's easy to make your own, too. 552
It appears that Mole Rats have a most fatal allergy to it. Explosively so. Sad 50 Those poor little Mole Ratties! I wonder if I could make a hypoallergenic version? Oh, but that'd hardly be effective. {Cute little voice when saying "mole ratties"} 553
Sad 10 I should mention that. Proper handling of Mole Rats could be important if they could be domesticated. Milked, maybe? Anyway, keep the repellent. 554
Neutral 50 Oh, but for your trouble, umm... Here, have the leftover chems from working on the repellent. I'm sure you can find some use for them. 555
They descended from local crabs. I'd call them "Scylla Serrata Horrendus." Surprise 25 That's very scientific of you! Personally, I wasn't sure if they were crabs or if they came from some sort of brine shrimp, perhaps. {Impressed!} 556
Neutral 50 Some of these observations about their armor and camouflage gave me an idea for reinforced, neutral-colored headgear. 557
Happy 25 Here, consider it thanks for not interfering with them. Oh, speaking of which, take these. So you can continue to avoid them in the future. 558
Pain's an abstract. I stay focused on the definable things, like survival. Happy 25 That's a very enlightened attitude you've got! Shame it doesn't stop bullets, huh? 559
Happy 40 Luckily, I'm here to patch you up. Now, hold still and quit fidgeting. 560
It began as a research station, which is why it's still a scientific haven. Happy 50 Hrm. With the protected location and resources that came from those scientific advances, I can definitely see how it grew so quickly! 561
Happy 30 A bit of smarts leads to a big reward, huh? Speaking of which, in thanks, have a few of these, for the next time you've got to be quick on your wits. 562
Happy 10 Oh, and I'll let the Rivet City traders know they'll be favorably mentioned in the book. You'll get a discount buying gear from them in the future. 563
Even after reprogramming, the robots were of questionable value as allies. Sad 25 Well, they're only human. Err, well, made by humans. Well, probably manufactured by other robots, but you know where I'm going with this. {Constantly re-correcting herself.} 564
Sad 10 Seems like a good thing to watch for when dealing with tech of any age. And it helps to pack a few pulse grenades, just in case. Here, have a few. 565
Neutral 50 Oh, and take my book on science - for some reason, I just can't get into the computer parts, but I've got the rest pretty much memorized. 566
This is an entire library's archives. You know how valuable that is, right? Happy 50 I suspect you and I are two of the only people who really appreciate its value, yes! 567
Happy 25 Oh my goodness, when I'm done with this, I'll have to work on copying all of this information. It could take a while, you know. 568
Happy 50 Oh, but here's a book of mine and some caps for your research. Think of it as pay for a civilization worth of overdue books. 569

Bonus Tough Response
Those Raiders must've shot me twenty times. But who's counting? Sad 35 You do what you need to do to get food and medicine, I guess. It's not pretty, but I guess that's the way it's got to be, right? 570
Neutral 50 Well, keep what you got. Just traded for a big food shipment, myself. Here, take a bit, my treat - the taste kind of grates after a while. 571
Happy 25 Oh, and take this! It's an old Food Sanitizer. Just carry it with you, and it should automatically make most food and drink more, um... better. 572
Well, it itches a little, but I can walk it off. Disgust 10 Oh, sure you can, you tough ol' survivor. Now sit down before you fall down. 573
Happy 25 Now, after taking a few notes, I'll take care of that nasty radiation with a bit of my own home-made concoction. 574
Happy 50 I've never had a chance to test it out on someone so heavily dosed, but I'm sure it'll work just as well. Exciting, isn't it? 575
There may have been an explosion or two. Oh, and a sniper. No big deal. Disgust 15 Oh. Well, if that's all! I'll just study this and hope there aren't any more explosions, shall I? 576
Happy 10 I know you may not want to see any more explosives for a while, but obviously you know your way around them. Have a couple rainy-day toys of mine. 577
Surprise 10 And looking at this landmine, it gives me an idea. It's a terrible device that does terrible things, of course. But it's easy to make your own, too. 578
It gives them quite a kick, like too much Jet or something. Surprise 60 What? You're kidding, right? Wait, you aren't kidding. Probably a metabolic reaction to the chemicals. 579
Sad 10 I should mention that. Proper handling of Mole Rats could be important if they could be domesticated. Milked, maybe? Anyway, keep the repellent. 580
Neutral 50 Oh, but for your trouble, umm... Here, have the leftover chems from working on the repellent. I'm sure you can find some use for them. 581
They don't seem to fight each other. So no struggle for leadership. Surprise 35 Oh, really? Maybe their leader figures are bred, sort of like ant queens? I wonder if relocating a Mirelurk "king" would prompt the others to move. 582
Neutral 50 Some of these observations about their armor and camouflage gave me an idea for reinforced, neutral-colored headgear. 583
Happy 25 Consider it thanks for not interfering with them. Oh, speaking of which, take these. So you can continue to avoid them in the future. 584
I hardly even feel pain anymore, honestly. Fear 35 Deadened nerves? That's probably a bad sign, you know. Like, nervous system degradation type of bad. 585
Happy 25 Luckily, I'm here to patch you up. Now, hold still and quit fidgeting. 586
They cleared out the Mirelurks. Then science folks and the rest moved in. Happy 25 I'll bet they used some sort of chemical device to drive off the Mirelurks. Or a sonic device? Anyway, I guess it worked pretty well! 587
Happy 50 A bit of smarts leads to a big reward, huh? Speaking of which, in thanks, have a few of these, for the next time you've got to be quick on your wits. 588
Happy 10 Oh, and I'll let the Rivet City traders know they'll be favorably mentioned in the book. You'll get a discount buying gear from them in the future. 589
I just hacked the mainframe so the robots would be a challenge. Happy 40 Well, I wouldn't have guessed you had it in you, but I suppose it worked out anyway. 590
Happy 25 Of course, I'll bet it helps to pack a few pulse grenades, just in case. Here, have a few. 591
Happy 10 Oh, and take my book on science for some reason, I just can't get into the computer parts, but I've got the rest pretty much memorized. 592
Now you can protect and catalogue all of the information it once had. Happy 50 Does that mean it'll be a "guard catalogue"? You see, because... Never mind. {Lea loves puns. The rest of the world, not so much.} 593
Happy 25 You'd have laughed if you knew the words "card catalogue." I wonder if there'll be one down there once I tell the world about it? 594
Happy 50 Oh, and here's a book of mine and some caps for your research. Think of it as pay for a civilization worth of overdue books. 595

Bonus Sly Response
It's very hard to talk my way past that many people shooting at me... Surprise 35 Oh, dear. Well, I guess the dangers around those old supplies keeps it from being smooth sailing. Otherwise, they'd already have been looted, huh? 596
Neutral 50 Well, keep what you got. Just traded for a big food shipment, myself. Here, take a bit, my treat - the taste kind of grates after a while. 597
Happy 25 Oh, and take this! It's an old Food Sanitizer. Just carry it with you, and it should automatically make most food and drink more, um... better. 598
Oh, I feel fine! <cough> Never better! <cough> No problem at all! <wheeze> Sad 50 Oh, you poor dear, putting on a brave face like that. Well, don't worry, it'll all be better, and it's for a good cause. 599
Sad 25 Now, let me take a few notes, and I'll handle that nasty radiation with a bit of my own home-made rad-cure concoction. 600
Happy 50 I've never had a chance to test it out on someone so heavily dosed, but I'm sure it'll work out fine. Exciting, isn't it? 601
Fast hands and faster wits can get you an awful lot. Including landmines. Happy 40 That's a pretty good way of putting it. I think I'll use that in the book. Maybe I should credit you as a co-author, instead of just a researcher? 602
Happy 20 I know you may not want to see any more explosives for a while, but obviously you know your way around them. Have a couple rainy-day toys of mine. 603
Surprise 10 And looking at this landmine, it gives me an idea. It's a terrible device that does terrible things, of course. But it's easy to make your own, too. 604
I don't believe this is as non-lethal as you had expected. To put it lightly. Sad 35 Oh dear. All of them? Well, I don't think I could water down the formula any further. 605
Sad 10 With that much testing, I guess it's beyond correction. Go ahead and keep it. Maybe you can find a nicer use for it, right? 606
Neutral 50 Oh, but for your trouble, umm... Here, have the leftover chems from working on the repellent. I'm sure you can find some use for them. 607
They seem mostly independent. I don't think there's any sort of "society" there. Disgust 25 Well, they certainly aren't making tea and having nice chats, obviously. But maybe you're right - any social development is minor at best. 608
Neutral 50 Some of these observations about their armor and camouflage gave me an idea for reinforced, neutral-colored headgear. 609
Happy 25 Here, consider it thanks for not interfering with them. Oh, speaking of which, take these. So you can continue to avoid them in the future. 610
Despite my glossary of expletives, nothing properly sums up this pain. Surprise 60 You? At a loss for words? Oh, it's worse than I thought! 611
Happy 40 Luckily, I'm here to patch you up. Now, hold still and quit fidgeting. 612
It had success as a science station, and people flock to success. Happy 40 I guess that's how people are, huh? Show a little initiative and success, and they'll support you enough for real success. 613
Happy 25 Nice work - it must have taken a lot of investigation. Here: for the next time you've got to shine like that. 614
Happy 10 Oh, and I'll let the Rivet City traders know they'll be favorably mentioned in the book. You'll get a discount buying gear from them in the future. 615
Like a charm. I only wish it were always that easy to manipulate people. Anger 40 Hey, robots are people, too! Well, some of them. Kinda. 616
Happy 10 Well, okay. Not really. Still, just in case you anger a few of our more metallic brethren, have a few pulse grenades I picked up, just in case. 617
Happy 25 Oh, and take my book on science - for some reason, I just can't get into the computer parts, but I've got the rest pretty much memorized. 618
The place was a death trap. But I got in and out as quick as I could. Surprise 35 Why would someone booby-trap a library? Unless... they're trying to keep all of the knowledge for themselves! 619
Happy 50 Well, we won't let that sort of information be held hostage, will we? We'll educate the world with our book! 620

I had a fun party with some Raiders. Then a guard robot jumped out of a cake. Happy 40 Well as long as it was no problem for you, then! I mean, who doesn't enjoy cake? Other than robots, of course. I bet they prefer pie. Or maybe pi? {Lea doesn't get the sarcasm in the player's statement.} 622
Happy 25 Well, keep what you got. Just traded for a big food shipment, myself. Here, take a bit, my treat - the taste kind of grates after a while. 623
Happy 10 Oh, and take this! It's an old Food Sanitizer. Just carry it with you, and it should automatically make most food and drink more, um... better. 624
I feel about as bad as you look. Anger 25 Well, maybe if you're lucky, you'll end up looking like me, too! 625
Happy 25 Now, after taking a few notes, I'll take care of that nasty radiation with a bit of my own home-made concoction. 626
Sad 50 I've never had a chance to test it out on someone so heavily dosed, but I'm sure it'll work out fine. Exciting, isn't it? 627
Too... tired... to be... snide. Surprise 50 You're a lucky one, you know. At this level, most people don't make it. But then again, most people don't have my experimental tricks! 628
Happy 25 Now, after taking a few notes, I'll take care of that nasty radiation with a bit of my own home-made concoction. 629
Sad 50 I've never had a chance to test it out on someone so heavily dosed, but I'm sure it'll work out fine. Exciting, isn't it? 630
Oh, disarming it's real easy. Just jump up and down on it. You go first. Anger 50 Do you think I'm an idiot? I may be a little impulsive, but not an idiot. I'll just take a look at this on my own, then. 631
Anger 10 I know you may not want to see any more explosives for a while, but obviously you know your way around them. Have a couple rainy-day toys of mine. 632
Surprise 10 And looking at this landmine, it gives me an idea. It's a terrible device that does terrible things, of course. But it's easy to make your own, too. 633
It's like explosive whack-a-Mole Rat. Can I get it in bullet form? For people? Disgust 75 That's horrible! You're horrible! This thing is horrible! Everything's horrible! Argh! 634
Disgust 25 With that much testing, I guess it's beyond correction. Go ahead and keep it. Maybe you can find a nicer use for it. But I doubt it. 635
Disgust 10 Oh, but for your trouble, umm... Here, have the leftover chems from working on the repellant. I'm sure you can find some use for them. 636
They've got a little, bubbling castle and they spend all day circling it. <Lie> Surprise 60 Really? Are you kidding me? No, really. Are you? Huh. Guess I'll have to wait to see what I get from the observer. 637
Neutral 50 Some of these observations about their armor and camouflage gave me an idea for reinforced, neutral-colored headgear. 638
Happy 25 Here, consider it thanks for not interfering with them. Oh, speaking of which, take these. So you can continue to avoid them in the future. 639
My only solace is thinking about inflicting this pain on people like you. Anger 20 Oh, well aren't you a grouchy one today? What got you in such a bad mood? Oh, yeah. The massive physical trauma. {As if chiding a child.} 640
Happy 25 Luckily, I'm here to patch you up. Now, hold still and quit fidgeting. 641
Some old coot says he took these notes. They seem reasonable enough. Happy 25 Well, this data looks legitimate. An outgrowth of a science station, huh? Just goes to show what I always say about cleverness! 642
Happy 50 A bit of smarts leads to a big reward, huh? Speaking of which, in thanks, have a few of these, for the next time you've got to be quick on your wits. 643
Happy 25 Oh, and I'll let the Rivet City traders know they'll be favorably mentioned in the book. You'll get a discount buying gear from them in the future. 644
It was robotic carnage. But I caused it, so it was the okay sort of carnage. Surprise 30 Well, I guess one thing about using the old tech is that it can feel a bit like playing God. But you're probably not supposed to. I think. {Lea's got her own ideas about whether or not it's "wrong" to play God.} 645
Happy 20 Seems like a good thing to watch for when dealing with tech of any age. And it helps to pack a few pulse grenades, just in case. Here, have a few. 646
Happy 40 Oh, and take my book on science - for some reason, I just can't get into the computer parts, but I've got the rest pretty much memorized. 647
The librarian's on duty. I'd have brought you a present, but I forgot my card. Happy 50 What, like it was never touched? Well, that's the way it should be! Nothing can overcome the power of knowledge, after all! 648
Happy 75 Thank goodness it's safe! I'll make sure to tell people that they can find more information there. It'll become a holy place for the educated! 649
Happy 10 Here's a book of mine and some caps for your research. Think of it as pay for a civilization worth of overdue books. 650
MS03TaskDescription1 Getting food doesn't sound so bad. What are you looking for? Happy 50 Well, food and medicine. Everyone needs them once in a while, right? So they need a good place to find them! 651
Happy 25 There's an old Super-Duper Mart not far from here. I need to know if a place like that still has any food or medicine left in it. 652
Tell me more about repelling the Mole Rats. Happy 10 Mole Rats can burrow into almost anything and cause a lot of trouble. So I figured I'd make a chemical repellent stick for people to shoo them off. 653
Happy 25 But I need it to be tested before I put the recipe to paper in the guide. So I need you to find some Mole Rats and test it out a bit. 654
Researching local history sounds easy. Disgust 10 Don't be so sure. You'd be surprised how confused people get, even about important things. 655
Neutral 50 In this case, I'm talking about Rivet City. It's the most successful survivor settlement around, but no one here really knows how it started. 656
Happy 25 Of course, that's why it's important to know how a place like that succeeded. So I need you to go there and do some researching! 657
MS03TaskDescription2 What's this about radiation? Happy 5 Well, I know lots about radiation from books... and personal experience, obviously. {A little sheepish} 658
Disgust 15 But I need to see how radiation effects normal, not-so-gooey humans. I never seem to get a live example to study. Not for long, anyway. 659
Surprise 25 So I need you to get a bit of radiation poisoning so I can study its effects. Oh, not a deadly dose, of course - I can fix you up before that! {A little hesitant about requesting this of the player.} 660
What's this about radiation? Disgust 25 Well, that's what I need your help for, isn't it? I know lots about it from books, but I never seem to get a live example. Not for long, anyway. 661

What's this about studying Mirelurks? Happy 10 Mirelurks are a big threat in some areas, and knowing more about them can help people learn to avoid, or even outsmart them. 663
Happy 25 So I picked up this observer device to study them in their natural habitat. I need you to hide it in one of the spawning pods in their lairs. 664
Old technology is no challenge for... The Mechanist! Happy 60 Oh, this is so exciting! I feel like I'm sending you out on some sort of super-assignment! 665
Happy 25 Okay, okay. Give me a moment to calm down... Now then, after some searching, I got this RobCo processor widget. 666
Neutral 50 Supposedly, if you connect it to the mainframe at the RobCo factory, you get access to an army of robots! 667
Happy 50 Seems like it's right up your alley, huh? And it'd be a great example of how to harness technology, wouldn't it? 668
Using old technology sounds interesting. Happy 10 It does, doesn't it? I mostly just deal with it after it's junked. But a trader gave me this RobCo processor widget. He said it's worth a fortune! 669
Happy 50 According to him, if it's connected to the mainframe in the RobCo factory, you could have access to all the robots you'd ever want! 670
Happy 50 Now that would be a great example of how to harness technology, wouldn't it? 671
MS03TaskDescription3 Let's hear more about the landmines. Happy 25 Landmines are one of the few dangers out there that you can profit from. Disarm one before it blows, and you can sell it for plenty of caps. 672
Happy 10 I've heard stories about a ghost town that's just full of mines. Traders just call the place "Minefield." 673
Happy 25 Sounds like the place for some fieldwork! Get in there, get back, and tell me all about it. And could you bring back a mine for my studies? 674

I'm going to hate myself for this, but what do you mean about handling injury? Fear 25 Well, I never get to study anyone who's severely injured. Not without them crying to be fixed right away or trying to bleed out and all that. 678
Happy 25 But obviously, you can handle a lot of abuse, so if I'm ever going to find a good example of human anatomy and injury resistance, it'd be you. 679
Happy 10 Next time you get badly injured, return here so I can examine you before I heal you up. 680
Happy 50 I mean, you're going to get yourself hurt anyway, right? 681
I could check the library. Maybe someone's already written a book like yours. Surprise 25 Oh, that'd sure save me a lot of time. But I bet then it wouldn't have your name on it, now would it? 682
Happy 25 Books are where the old world kept its knowledge, and libraries are where it kept the books. And there's supposed to be one in Arlington. 683
Happy 50 See if it's still there, and if you can download records from its computer. Information dumps like those would be invaluable for rebuilding humanity! 684

MS03TaskLie I went into Minefield and came back, no problem. <Lie.> Anger 50 There's no way you could have gone there and gotten back already. 688
Anger 25 It's got to take at least a day to get there and back. Now get going! 689
I got through Minefield alive, and I even brought you a present. <Lie.> Anger 30 I appreciate the landmine, but there's just no way you could have gotten to Minefield and back already! 690
Anger 10 I mean, it's got to take at least a day or so to get there and back! So get going! 691
I got through Minefield alive, and I even brought you a present. <Lie.> Happy 40 Oh, great! And you look like it went fine! So, how was it? 692
I got through Minefield alive, and I even brought you a present. <Lie.> Happy 25 My very own landmine! Just what I've always wanted. Well, always since I sent you out on this, anyway. 693
Surprise 10 Now, tell me all about it. What was it like going through there? What's it like disarming a landmine? 694
I checked out the Super-Duper Mart, but nothing's there. <Lie.> Anger 50 Do you think I suddenly lost track of time or something? There's no way you've gone there and back in the blink of an eye like that! 695
I checked out the Super-Duper Mart, but nothing's there. <Lie.> Sad 25 Really? Oh, that's a shame. I guess it was an obvious place for people to get food, so it all got taken long ago, huh? 696
Happy 25 Still, good work checking it out! And have some food as thanks for the work. It's a shame you didn't find any, there. 697
I tested it out, and it works just fine. <Lie.> Anger 25 Oh, come on. You barely even left! I can't imagine you tested it on reasonable number of subjects so quickly. It can't have been a good sample size. 698
I tested it out, and it works just fine. <Lie.> Happy 50 Excellent! Finally, mankind will have a way to shoo away those annoying pests without resorting to cruelty or violence! 699
Neutral 50 I'll just take that back for my final studies. Oh, but here! I've got lots of leftover chems from the testing. Maybe some of them are your style? 700
I went to the site of the library, but the building was destroyed. <Lie.> Anger 25 Oh, come on! You weren't even searching for a full day! You can't just give up on knowledge like that so fast! 701
I went to the site of the library, but the building was destroyed. <Lie.> Sad 50 Really? All of it? Not even a single, tattered paperback? Oh, that's terrible. Just like the Library of Alexandria County. What a loss to the world. 702
Sad 15 But... I guess I promised you some pay, didn't I? Here's some caps. But it's nothing compared to the wealth of knowledge we've all lost. 703
Rivet City is actually the remains of an ancient, underwater civilization. <Lie.> Disgust 15 Oh, come on. Now you're just being silly. There's no way you went down to Rivet City and came back in less than a day. {No problem believing the crazy lie about the underwater civilization, but she doesn't believe it was found out so fast.} 704
Rivet City is actually the remains of an ancient, underwater civilization. <Lie.> Surprise 15 It is? I've never heard of anything like that! I don't even know anything in books about that sort of thing. Unless... 705
Surprise 75 Oh my goodness! Do you think it's originally from Atlantis? Or maybe Mu? Maybe they started the war? I never would have guessed that without you! 706

I'm not really comfortable with getting irradiated. Sad 25 Not even for humanity? Not even for science? {Pleading, with an emphasis on "SCIENCE" - almost over the top.} 709
I haven't been to Minefield yet. Hold on. Surprise 15 It's not just because they say the place is haunted, is it? Because that's no reason to avoid the place. 710
Fear 10 Ghosts don't exist. But landmines do. Oh boy, do they. And that's what we need to study! 711
I just haven't found enough Mole Rats. Surprise 25 Wow, it repels them that much? I can't wait for your full report! 712
I find this whole "Mirelurk intelligence" thing a bit hard to swallow. Neutral 50 There's only one way to know for sure. Just slip the observer into a spawning pod at the War Memorial. I'll take care of the rest. 713
You seriously want me to go out and hurt myself for your book? Happy 25 Oh, don't think of it as crippling yourself for me... Think of it as getting free treatment when you eventually end up getting yourself hurt! 714
I can't get a straight answer out of those folks. Happy 10 Try asking around a bit. You never know who's collected a lot of information, do you? 715
I haven't been over to the RobCo facility, yet. Happy 25 Well, why not go over there and make a few friends? Or activate them, I guess. 716
Is it really worth risking my life over a bunch of books? Happy 25 Places like that store the collected knowledge of the entire human race. How we began, how we lived, and how we died. Knowledge overwhelming! {Lea gets a bit worked up over the idea of that much knowledge collected in one place.} 717
Fear 25 So I'd have to say, and please, please don't take this the wrong way... Yes. It is worth risking your life over those books. 718
Fear 10 I mean, no offense. 719
MS03TaskNotComplete2 I'll do it when I get around to it, all right? Anger 15 No, not all right. Every day you don't help with this research is another day people might die! {Whining} 720
Anger 30 And I can't write without good research, or else people might follow bad info and die anyway! So get to work! 721
You realize how ridiculous this request is, right? Anger 50 I realize a lot of things, but this isn't one of them because it's a real scientific necessity and... and... and not ridiculous at all! {Exasperated and a little confused by the end of her protest.} 722
Anger 10 What I mean is, I need this research, and you're probably going to get irradiated out there, anyway. So why not come back here and help me, too? 723
I don't think walking around in a minefield is a very good idea. Surprise 25 Neither is going around all the time with a loaded gun or running with sharp objects, but people do those things all the time! 724
Happy 50 You worry too much. Just be careful where you step, and I'm sure you'll be fine! 725
I'm not so sure about testing this stuff. Surprise 10 Oh, it's perfectly fine, and made from organic ingredients. Well, it affects things' organs. That's close enough to being organic, right? 726
Happy 50 Either way, it's perfectly safe. Heck, once it got into food for Jericho, and he never even knew! {Whispered when talking about Jericho.} 727
Why do we care if they're intelligent? They still try to kill me. Happy 25 Okay, yes, they're jerks. But if they're intelligent, we can get them to stop. And train them. Maybe we could even ride them! That'd be fun! {Almost giddy at the prospect} 728
Why not study injuries on yourself? If it'd help, I could shoot you in the gut. Happy 10 Well, I could hardly be an impartial observer in that case, now could I? It'd ruin the validity of the entire experiment. 729
Fear 10 Besides, you wouldn't shoot me, now would you? {Disbelieving at first, but slowly becoming uncertain.} 730
Fear 50 Umm... How about I just leave you alone for a bit? {Worried and trying to get away politely.} 731
History is for losers. I'll do it later. Anger 35 No, history is what losers become. {Stern, like an angry second-grade teacher.} 732
Anger 25 You go right back and talk to those people and find out something so we can make sure others learn from their successes! 733
Robots aren't really my style. I'll do it later. Neutral 25 The trader who sold me that insisted it was a snap to use. Just plug it into the mainframe, and it should take care of the rest. 734
Happy 25 Of course, if you played around with the systems after that, we'd probably learn even more. But you can deal with that when you get there. 735
What if the building was destroyed and I can't even find its remains? Happy 25 No need to worry about that. It's got to be around - it's a government building, and they were all built to the highest construction standards! {Blissfully naive.} 736
Happy 50 I could swear I read that in an old book somewhere, so it's got to be true! 737
MS03TaskRejection Actually, I'll have to wait a bit. Sad 35 Well, I guess I can wait a little. I've got plenty of other projects to work on, after all. 738
Fear 25 But come back soon and help out. It's for an important cause! 739
MS03TaskReturn
MS03QuestReturn
Let's talk about collecting the stuff from Super-Duper Mart... Surprise 10 So, how's the scavving been? Got the food and medicine from that Super-Duper Mart? {Scavving is pronounced with a short "a" - it's an abbreviation of "scavenging"} 740
Let's talk about radiation... Surprise 10 Oh? Feeling a bit under the weather? Or a bit over the Geiger-counter? 741
Let's talk about Minefield... Surprise 10 How are those hot little potatoes? 742
Fear 10 Because, you know, they're on the ground, like potatoes. And hot, because they, um, explode. {Lea realizes the phrase she used wouldn't make sense to anyone else, and loses steam part-way through explaining it.} 743
Happy 25 Anyway, what's up? 744
Let's talk about Minefield... Surprise 10 How are those hot little potatoes? Or whatever. You know what I mean. {Lea realizes she's using a silly phrase.} 745
Let's talk about the Mole Rat Repellent... Happy 25 Oh, I can't wait to hear how the repellent's working! 746
Let's talk about the Mirelurks... Surprise 15 So, are they intelligent? Do they have a leader? Some sort of king? Or priests? Or some sort of scaly community center? 747
Let's talk about this serious injury... Surprise 10 Well, how do you feel? 748
Let's talk about Rivet City's history... Surprise 10 Any luck finding out how Rivet City got started? 749
Let's talk about those robots... Surprise 10 Fiddle with any interesting technology, lately? 750
Let's talk about the library... Surprise 20 Is it there? Are there books? Can I go borrow some? 751
MS03TaskReward1
MS03TaskReward
What's the pay? Anger 10 Hopefully, you'll be finding food and medicine, but I could sweeten the deal by paying more food when you get back, regardless of the results. 752
Neutral 50 While you're away, I can at least search through my junk and see if there's anything that'll go with old food to make it more appetizing. 753
I don't know if handling weird chemicals is safe. What's it worth to you? Happy 25 Don't worry about the chemicals. I handled them all the time while experimenting, and I'm perfectly fine, aren't I? 754
Happy 10 How about I let you have the leftover chems I used to make it? Heck, do a thorough job, and maybe I'll let you keep the repellent itself. 755
What's the value of digging up history? Disgust 25 You mean, apart from making sure we don't repeat our tragic failures in a never-ending cavalcade of human pathos and suffering? {Rhetorical question, said with frustration.} 756
Neutral 50 Let's say... A big pile of Mentats. I got a shipment of those in recently. Do a good job, and maybe the people of Rivet City will reward you, too. {Said with mild disdain for "a big pile of Mentats"} 757
MS03TaskReward2 You want me to get irradiated? How could that possibly be worth it for me? Happy 25 Oh, don't worry so much about it. I'll be waiting here with a nice, tall glass of rad-cleansing brahmin milk for you when you get back. 758
Happy 25 Well, mostly just a whole lot of Rad-X and Rad-Away. And maybe even a more reliable way to get rid of radiation! Assuming it works, of course. {Assuming it works is added under her breath.} 759
Sneaking into a Mirelurk lair? The pay had better be worth it. Happy 25 While you're working on that, I'll be following up on a lead I've got for a couple Stealth-Boys. When you're done, they're yours. 760
Happy 50 And who knows? Maybe we'll learn something useful from the Mirelurks. 761
What's it worth to you? Happy 10 Well, you'll be getting access to an army of robots. That ought to be reward enough, right? But if you insist, I could spare some pulse grenades. 762
MS03TaskReward3 That seems kind of... unhealthy. How will you make it worth my while? Happy 25 What better reward for avoiding explosives than to pay you with explosives? Frag grenades, in this case. I got a pretty good haul of them recently. 763
Happy 50 And if you bring me back something to study, maybe I can make some modifications for you. Nothing like tinkering with a live mine, right? 764
What could possibly be worth breaking my bones over? Happy 10 Did you know, when bones break and re-heal, they grow back tougher? In a way, you'd be repaying yourself. Once I make sure you survive, of course. 765
Happy 50 But in a more tangible way, I can give you a modified environmental suit of mine. How's that sound? 766
What do I get for going to the library? Happy 25 The obvious answer would be, "a book." But I guess there might not be any left there, so how about I pay you with good old-fashioned caps? 767
Surprise 25 Who knows what you could buy with all those caps? It could be anything. It could even be a book! 768
MS03TaskSetDone That completes the first chapter's tasks, correct? Happy 40 Yup, you've done a great job! I just need to add in the section on how to cook rat, and this chapter's done. 769
Happy 20 Here, for your services, I've saved up quite a few Stimpaks. Of course, you may need them: we've still got two more chapters to go. 770
Is that all of the research for the second chapter? Fear 10 Absolutely! I'm glad to finish it up, but I'll bet you're even happier, right? 771
Happy 40 Just one last chapter, now. And it's much safer, I promise! 772
Neutral 50 Oh, and here's your payment - two big boxes full of ammo. Think of it as insurance, in case the next chapter isn't as safe as I predict. 773
Is that it for the last chapter? Happy 50 It certainly is. With that last bit of info, I'm all done! 774
Fear 10 For all your hard work, I want you to have this Mini Nuke. I kept meaning to use it to dig a well, but honestly, it just makes me nervous. 775
Happy 50 Now, I just need to do a few last tweaks and it'll be ready to print and distribute! Thanks for all the help! 776
That completes the first chapter's tasks, right? Happy 40 Correct, and it's looking very smart. Very smart, indeed! They'll be dazzled by our intelligence! 777
Happy 20 Here, for your services, I've saved up quite a few stimpaks. Of course, you may need them: we've still got two more chapters to go. 778
I suspect this completes the second chapter's research, correct? Fear 20 Correct, as always! And your feedback's really led to a very smartly written book. Maybe too smart for some folks, I worry. 779
Disgust 10 Of course, if the reader can't be bothered to understand something important as a book on how to stay alive, then what can we do, huh? 780
Happy 15 And in case those readers blame you for their ignorance, here's your payment: two big boxes of ammo. Now, on to the next chapter! 781
And now my research for your book is completed. Isn't it? Neutral 50 Yes, that concludes our exceptional expert endeavor! I have to admit, I was worried it would go over some peoples' heads, but it should be fine. 782
Neutral 50 For all your hard work, I want you to have this Mini Nuke. I kept meaning to use it to dig a well, but honestly, it just makes me nervous. 783
Neutral 50 Now, I just need to do a few last tweaks and it'll be ready to print and distribute! Thanks for all the help! 784
Is that all for the first chapter? Happy 40 Yup. It's looking like it'll be a real tough book for real tough guys. And real tough gals, too, of course! 785
Happy 20 Here, for your services, I've saved up quite a few stimpaks. Of course, you may need them: we've still got two more chapters to go. 786
Is the second chapter done yet? Happy 20 You bet. Your feedback is just the stuff for that rough-and-tumble, survive-anything sort of feel! 787
Fear 10 Of course, readers who aren't already rough-and-tumble may have a hard time dealing with it. But I'm sure they'll pick up survival as they go. 788
Happy 15 Nothing to concern ourselves over, I'm sure. Here's your payment - nothing too complex, just lots and lots of ammo. Now, on to the next chapter! 789
Are we done with the last chapter? Happy 50 Yup, that's the last bit for the toughest survival guide in the Wastes! Survivors of the world, rejoice! And everyone else, too! 790
Fear 20 For all your hard work, I want you to have this Mini Nuke. I kept meaning to use it to dig a well, but honestly, it just makes me nervous. 791
Happy 50 Now, I just need to do a few last tweaks and it'll be ready to print and distribute! Thanks for all the help! 792
Does that finish out the first chapter? Happy 40 It most certainly does. And if I keep writing in the style of some of your reports, this is going to be one mighty slick book! 793
Happy 20 Here, for your services, I've saved up quite a few stimpaks. Of course, you may need them: we've still got two more chapters to go. 794
Is it just my imagination, or does that complete the second chapter? Happy 40 Oh, it's very real, and very complete. I think I'm really capturing that sly and stylish way you have of getting around problems out there! 795
Fear 15 Of course, I worry I'll write with too much style and not enough substance. So keep bringing me back good research, and that won't be a problem! 796
Happy 10 Here's your payment: I know ammo isn't really your style, but think of it as excellent bartering material. Now, on to the next chapter! 797
Correct me if I'm wrong, but that completes the book. Right? Happy 40 Smooth, suave, and done with a smile. I swear I picked up a few pointers from your style, myself! 798
Fear 10 For all your hard work, I want you to have this Mini Nuke. I kept meaning to use it to dig a well, but honestly, it just makes me nervous. 799
Happy 50 Now, I just need to do a few last tweaks and it'll be ready to print and distribute! Thanks for all the help! 800
Is the first chapter done yet? Happy 40 It definitely is. I'm trying to put that same great sense of humor you've got into the book. Keep it up, and it'll inform and entertain! 801
Happy 20 Here, for your services, I've saved up quite a few stimpaks. Of course, you may need them: we've still got two more chapters to go. 802
This chapter done yet? I don't know how much more research I can take. Happy 30 Oh, you. Of course we are. And I think I'm really capturing that snide wit of yours. So, for all your snippiness, I think it'll help the book. 803
Anger 10 Still, I can put up with plenty of your little jabs, as long as the research is good. 804
Happy 10 And, yes, you'll still get paid. Here: nothing says loving like big boxes of ammunition, right? Now, on to the next chapter? 805
I swear, if I have to research anything else, I'll just shoot myself now. Happy 15 Well, lucky for you, we're done! And for all your nasty attitude, I think the quips made it a lot more entertaining to read. That's bound to help. 806
Fear 15 For all your hard work, I want you to have this Mini Nuke. I kept meaning to use it to dig a well, but honestly, it just makes me nervous. 807

MS03VaultQuestions1B Where'd you get the Vault Suit back there? Surprise 15 I'm pretty sure I remember a girl coming into town with that about ten, twelve years ago. 811
Happy 25 She didn't know a thing about the Wastes, and I knew she'd get herself hurt without some sort of protection. So I offered to armor her vault suit. 812
Sad 5 Never saw her again probably died out there, poor thing. In a way, she gave me the idea to write this book. It's yours, if you help. 813

Anger 50 Now, go on out there walk through that Minefield like a real researcher! 886
SpeechChallengeFailure Anger 25 I don't think so. I've heard a lot of stories from traders that there's food out there. A whole lot. 887
Anger 50 Either you weren't looking hard enough, or you didn't really go at all. Either way, I'm going to have to insist you go back again, alright? 888
SpeechChallengeFailure Happy 5 I know it's just about a definite that it works right, but I can tell you haven't really tested it out much. 889
Happy 50 I appreciate your confidence, but I can't stress enough the importance of good research. So please go out and give it a real test, okay? 890
SpeechChallengeFailure Anger 50 I don't appreciate that sort of joke, especially not when it's about losing knowledge. 891
Anger 75 Now you go out there again and get back to looking! 892
SpeechChallengeFailure Surprise 15 Yeah, yeah, very funny. Just go there and do some real research, will you? 893
SpeechChallengeFailure Disgust 10 Yeah, I'm afraid that's not going to work with me. {doesn't think the player is worthy of the information, or can be trusted with it} 894
