Dialogue

Authorization

(ProtagonistProtagonist)! Wake up!
"...Terms and Conditions... Shall not authorize others to use..."
"...may not be transferred in any way..."
(ProtagonistProtagonist), you did it...
We're out...
"...you agree to give full authorization when necessary to protect the common interests of you and this existence..."
The Bangboo is twitching...
We'd best go to the store and take a look.
Icon Dialogue Talk It's so loud...
Icon Dialogue Talk What is that noise...?
A magnificent light drowned out (ProtagonistProtagonist)'s consciousness.
Familiar voices lingered, before being broken up by the shrill scream of data.
A huge torrent of information surges through the H.D.D. system and right into the brain of (ProtagonistProtagonist) synchronized with the Bangboo.
Originally intangible virtual data is transformed into a perceptual snowstorm through contact with the "Bangboo." In an instant, pain overtook all other senses.
"...Do you agree to the above user terms?"
Icon Dialogue Talk Stop tormenting me...
"...Do you agree to the above user terms?"
Icon Dialogue Talk Please stop...
"...Do you agree to the above user terms?"
Icon Dialogue Talk I agree.
"The license agreement has been signed, I am happy to be of service, (ProtagonistProtagonist)."
"...Together, we will make New Eridu..."

Meanwhile, outside New Eridu.

In a dark room reflecting the cold light of the screen.

Calm male voice: How surprising. A "key" has already been activated.
Pretty female voice: Huh? Really? Which one? Ghost? Jinn? Youkai?
Calm male voice: No. It's Fairy.
Pretty female voice: Oh, wow. Now that is interesting. Can we trace the host's ID?
Calm male voice: No. After the authorization process, Fairy actively removes all traces of its presence on the web.
Pretty female voice: Ah~ Why is that? Is that an order from the host?
Or has Fairy determined that anonymity is important to them?
Pretty female voice: What kind of person wants to hide?
Some lucky civilian? A skilled technician? A jumpy fugitive? Or...
Calm male voice: —A Proxy?
Pretty female voice: Wow~ If that's the case, then this just got even more interesting!
Calm male voice: But that doesn't matter right now. We need to report this to the higher-ups first.
Pretty female voice: Hehe~
How is Fairy's host going to respond? I can't wait to find out!

The Sixth Street Video Store, Random Play.

(SiblingSibling): Ah! You're finally awake!
Icon Dialogue Talk W-What? Was I dreaming?
Icon Dialogue Talk I'm... in the store?
(SiblingSibling): It's OK. You're safe.
Icon Dialogue Talk What happened to the data chip?
Icon Dialogue Talk Where's Nicole and the others?
Icon Dialogue Talk How did I get back?
(SiblingSibling): Stay calm, you're still recovering.
(SiblingSibling): I'll explain what happened. But before that, tell me what happened after reading the chip. You were saying so many strange things while you were passed out.
(ProtagonistProtagonist) explains the strange and painful experience.
(SiblingSibling): Hmm... It sounds like a dream, or something you'd hear in a psych ward...
(SiblingSibling): But I believe you, even if I'd rather not... I have no choice...
(SiblingSibling): I've got your side of the story, now it's my turn.
(SiblingSibling): After you read the data chip, our Bangboo disengaged from the H.D.D. control system.
(SiblingSibling): It seemed to be having some kind of overload, it was sparking and flashing like a concert at 404.
(SiblingSibling): We thought the extraction plan had failed, but then the Bangboo suddenly started to move, and it took Nicole and everyone to the exit.
(SiblingSibling): (‍(ProtagonistProtagonist),(ProtagonistProtagonist),‍) You were out cold for the whole process, twitching and mumbling.
Icon Dialogue Talk Sounds frightening...
Icon Dialogue Talk You didn't secretly record me, did you?
(SiblingSibling): (‍I didn't know what to do.I didn't know what to do. / I was in a real pickle.I was in a real pickle.‍) Then Nicole and the others rushed over with a mysterious doctor they knew.
(SiblingSibling): She helped me pull you out of the H.D.D. system and stabilize you. You slept most of the day before waking up.
(SiblingSibling): Nicole and the others went out to investigate. There's some good news, she paid her bill in full. Although some of it went to the medical bill and Bangboo repairs...
Icon Dialogue Talk That's some expensive bad news.
Icon Dialogue Talk I knew it...
(SiblingSibling): Oh, I haven't told you the bad news yet.
(SiblingSibling): Then let me tell you the bad news.
(SiblingSibling): You remember I said I have no choice but to believe you? The chip is read directly by the Bangboo, which is connected to the H.D.D. system...
(SiblingSibling): Go take a look at the computer, but be prepared.

(Interact with the computer)
The computer turns on. A low hum comes from the hardware as it fires up. A familiar page appears on the screen.
The emptied data station, the restored Proxy Network info, and the Proxy ID you gave away... Everything's exactly the way it was before you passed out. Except...
There's one strange pop-up window on the screen.
Icon Dialogue Talk What's this?
Icon Dialogue Talk Did you download some lousy media player again?
(SiblingSibling): I didn't install this! Before you blacked out, the H.D.D. System restarted. That's when she appeared.
Icon Dialogue Talk "She"?
Icon Dialogue Talk What do you mean by "she"?
(SiblingSibling): It'll be faster if I show you. Brace yourself.
(‍BelleBelle / WiseWise‍) bends over to pick up the audio cable, plugging it into the computer after a moment's hesitation.
(SiblingSibling): Ahem. Fairy? Are you there?
Voice output detected. I am here.
Icon Dialogue Talk She can talk??
Icon Dialogue Talk All this time my computer was a girl!
(SiblingSibling): Fairy... the person you were looking for is here. Can you introduce yourself?
I am a type III general-purpose AI equipped with total sequential integration. Development code: Fairy.
According to the user agreement you signed, I am to always assist you to complete your work and wait for the "opportunity" to arrive.
(SiblingSibling): What opportunity? What agreement?
According to the user agreement, I am unable to answer this question. You will receive an answer at the appropriate time and place.
(SiblingSibling): (‍She's such a difficult girl, but then she's only got value if she can keep secrets!She's such a difficult girl, but then she's only got value if she can keep secrets! / I don't understand real girls, let alone virtual ones... I better leave this to you, sis.I don't understand real girls, let alone virtual ones... I better leave this to you, sis.‍)
Icon Dialogue Talk What are you so happy about?
Icon Dialogue Talk You watch too many soap operas!
I noticed a recent deletion and transfer of data to a third party, which will hinder your career as an illegal Hollow Investigator commonly known as a Proxy.
I can help you make up for your losses and rebuild your Proxy reputation.
(SiblingSibling): Wait, so you can recover the deleted data?
Negative, I am unable to recover deleted data.
But I can help you rebuild your database.
I have unlimited access to over 80% of all smart devices in the city.
With my assistance, data does not need to be accumulated, and real-time analysis of Hollow extraction paths is possible.
(SiblingSibling): (‍T-That'sT-That's / That'sThat's‍) impossible!
Negative. That is precisely my core function. To prove this, I can assist you in Hollow investigations.
I've sorted through the anonymous forums for the Hollow Investigation Service's private information gathering site, commonly known as the Proxy Network, to find a commission that is appropriate for your current state.
Please choose an appropriate time to carry out the operation according to your preference.
