Thanks, Nick.

First question: Do you know what your power source is?

[outofthepast]

Gen 2 synths run on a long-running, low-grade nuclear fusion core. Some kind of Institute tech, probably.

[failedpromise]

Huh. Guess you don't ever have to worry about recharging.

(Convenient. ...And potentially risky. What happens if something in that power core breaks?)

I heard you can eat. Can you taste? What about other senses?

[outofthepast]

No, not so far. Thank God.

Well, I don't technically eat. But I can taste. I've got all five senses, or at least something to stand in for them.

[failedpromise]

I'd ask you what that's like, but that's not really a question with an easy answer. Got a favorite food, Nick?

(This isn't actually important to her current line of questioning, she's just curious.)

You had any issues with feeling a pull toward an entity, either after using abilities unique to you or just seemingly at random despite refraining from doing so?

[outofthepast]

Most of it's wasted on me but I don't mind a bit of steak now or then. Or bourbon.

I haven't felt any "pull" towards anything. I don't know what that means and I don't care to, honestly. I do as little navel-gazing about where I fall on the Entity's attention span as possible.

[failedpromise]

Noted.

(As far as she's concerned, it's not a waste if he enjoys it. He'll totally be getting bourbon from her at some point, probably.)

Got it. That's all I wanted to ask. Anything you wanna know?

(She did say she could offer information in exchange. And not just information about herself-she's got a lot of stuff sitting in her databases.)
