Hello! Um, I'm told that there are others of you out here that arrived on the ship? Which is pretty interesting! Have any of you investigated it at all? Do we know where it came from? I mean obviously we all got on it somehow—which is another thing to investigate, now that I mention it, because I have like zero memory of that—but if anyone's taken some more diagnostics on it that I was able to do in a few hours I'd love to compare notes! I guess I'd also appreciate if someone could fill me in on the situation out here, since this is... not anywhere near any place I've ever been, based on my GPS.

Oh, um! I forgot to introduce myself, ahaha... anyway, I guess you can call me Judy? I'm looking forward to getting to know all of you; um, feel free to say hello? Hi.

re: Authorities --
Advanced weaponry, collars that block the use of any sort of superhuman power or ability (they use these on anyone deemed a threat), extremely disciplined, tend to raid en masse.

re: gratitude --
The more you know, the less I have to tell the next guy.

Wow. Creepy!

Superhuman powers? Is that a... thing, around here? Do the collars to anything aside from block... stuff like that? Also, what constitutes "a threat", I feel like that would be good to know.

"Is that a... thing, around here?"

Yes.

"Do the collars to anything aside from block... stuff like that?"

Not as far as we know.

"Also, what constitutes "a threat", (...)"

We're not sure. Assume that if you're dangerous in any way and they notice, you're a threat.

Oh, well then, hopefully I won't have anything to worry about. Hopefully, anyway. I can't imagine why they'd ever think of me as a threat, though.

What kind of things have they gone after people for in the past?
