What do you do here?

*All things robotical. You see a robot, I made it. See a broken robot, I made it that way. Deconstructed it down to parts.*

Do you have another name?

Can you tell me about this facility?

*Big {Mountain} MT used to be a mountain. Then there was a... slight mishap. Now it's a crater - the Dome used to be buried, now it's exposed to the sky.*

Tell me what happened.
|
Neutral 50
|
*This human... I can't believe it... he broke out of the Think Tank. In seconds.*
|
35
|
Neutral 50
|
*Then he went for Yangtze, got bomb collars, and started practicing on the subjects that were still there until he got the right frequency.*
|
36
|
Neutral 50
|
*We were sending robots to stop him and he was slicing and cutting through their shells with some suped-up laser gun like they were cheese... paper.*
|
37
|
Neutral 50
|
*When he hacked into the mainframe, 8 tried to stop him and got fried. Me? He rerouted my processors to take control of the train network here.*
|
38
|
Neutral 50
|
*If you see the tunnels with the trains plowed into them, you can thank our visitor for that. He wrecked the whole place.*
|

Neutral 50

*While we were trying to keep containment on the surface, turns out he used one train to punch out a tunnel and escape... sealed now, but...*

NVDLC03Dialogue0NVDLC03DoctorOLVLTopic015

Who were the others?
|
Neutral 50

*Two other human specimens. One arrived not long after the troublemaker... and the last one, not sure when he showed up.*
|
41
|
Neutral 50
|
*Thought the first one was going to be lobotomized in Y-17, she got out somehow.*
|
42
|
Neutral 50
|
*The last subject... Klein might know more. He talked to him, then let him leave the Think Tank. Hope he knew what he was doing.*
|
43
|
NVDLC03Dialogue0NVDLC03DoctorOLVLTopic016
|
Why is that?
|
Neutral 50
|
*Klein knows things we don't. And I think he told some of those things to the last visitor. Dangerous things if they ever got out.*
|

Are you sure? I'm a good listener. Got the ears for it.

Disgust 50

*O-kay, so my name isn't "O." Never was. It was circular, a single character, digit, but not "O."*
|

Neutral 50

*But even with enhanced sensors, no one here could get it right! Always kept seeing the letter, not the number.*

If they kept confusing the letter with a number, your name is Dr. 0... Dr. Zero?
|
Neutral 50
|
[SUCCEEDED] *Yes! Thank you. {Emph} Zero. I am Zero. How hard is that? A narrow, thin Zero.*
|
50
|
I don't get it. What, they thought your letter was a number?
|
Neutral 50
|
[FAILED] *I might as well take Dala up on that self-vivisection competition. Forget this. It's like talking to Klein's rear shell.*
|
51
|
NVDLC03Dialogue0NVDLC03DoctorOLVLTopic019
|
I don't know. "O" sounds more impressive.
|
Neutral 50
|
*Zero's my name. I'm proud of it, all right? It doesn't get the recognition it deserves.*
|
52
|
Neutral 50
|
*Truth be told, my emotional attachment to it doesn't even register compared to just having people recognize the difference!*
|
53
|
Neutral 50
|
*It's just that they're both sort of... round... and hollow. So when they monitor-scan them, they assume that... "Oh, it's O!" {Frustrated: "Stab me in the gut, please."} Vivisect me, please.*
|
54
|
NVDLC03Dialogue0NVDLC03DoctorOLVLTopic022
|
If you wanted to differentiate the "0" and "O," just put a slash through the zero.
|
Neutral 50
|
[SUCCEEDED] {Not sure he heard the player right} *What?*
|
55
|
Well, Zero and "O" do look a lot alike, there's no way to tell a difference.

Zero. Draw a slash through it.

Sad 50

*Did... did I shoot myself with a brainial beam or something? That's brilliant! I mean, I would have come to the same conclusion. {"Eventually..."} Eventually...*

*O... er... who am I deceiving. I never would have figured that out. I can't figure anything out! I'm... aighhh... I'm useless.*

Zero. Draw a slash through it.
|
Neutral 50

*That's pretty cool, actually. Destroyer of numbers. I already wreck every robot I study, why not basic arithmetic?*
|
59
|
Zero. Draw a slash through it.
|
Neutral 50
|
*I like your solution. With that kind of slash in the middle, I can set myself apart! If I wanted to.*
|
60
|
Neutral 50
|
*The biggest zero in all the Think Tank. They won't be able to escape it, that diagonal slash right down the middle.*
|
61
|
Zero. Draw a slash through it.

Neutral 50

*Thanks. Talking to you... it really helped unclog some frustration. {Amazed} Talking. What a primitive form of thought-kicking.*

|
64
|
NVDLC03Dialogue0NVDLC03DoctorOLVLTopic028

And that's what makes you truly a zero.

Or you may want to stick with "O." As in, the "Oh!" of discovery.

Well, there's power in zero. It reduces anything multiplied against it - to zero.

*Well, of course it does. That's the most lethal of mathematics...*

NVDLC03Dialogue0NVDLC03DoctorOLVLTopic033
