[Samus was currently in the caves of deck 15, where she had been poking around for the last several days. Now she was ready to search elsewhere.]

What does anyone know about this Carnival I have heard about? It is dangerous there I hear.

[Samus was itching for adventure, and the Carnival seemed to be the only place open to her for answers.]

You aren't planning on investigating, are you? It could be a restricted area... there might be severe repercussions for straying into such a place.

[If text could have a tone, Christopher's would be slightly sly. Hey, it's not like he's never done anything against regulations...]

I could be. Regulations are made for two reasons: to protect people, and to hide information.

Do you know anything?

Unfortunately, I know little. Just that it is unlike other carnivals of Earth, that there are strange animals inhabiting the area... and that deaths have occurred on the premises.

It sounds like the captain is not in complete control of the ship. Or he has posted a guard over something.

It is impossible to know which just from my own knowledge.

If you venture in... and let it be noted that I highly advise against it... I would like to accompany you. It seems like too unpredictable a place for one to go alone. Besides, I confess my own curiosity.

[The comms could be locked? Interesting. She tried her hand at the code. Without her suit, she could only do so much, at least until she grew familiar with it.]

What skills and capabilities do you offer?

Adept in both bioengineering and mechanical sciences. I haven't been able to find suitable scrap, but if I ever do I could build weaponry.

Aside from that, I am alien. I have speed, endurance, and strength above that of an average human's. A few enhanced senses as well.

Perhaps I could have you look at something for me. I doubt the captain's tampering can be removed, but it would be worth a try.

Humans are quite weak, physically speaking, compared to most of what I have encountered in my travels. You sound like you could hold your own. I will inform you when I am venturing in.

[Ohhh, you've earned a curious chirrup from this insectoid alien.]

Look at something? Where would I... find this something?

I am unsure where my components are stored when not in use. They are still there, just inaccessible.

[Chris chitters in a puzzled manner to himself before making the connection.]

Are you... are you in possession of a biosuit?

[Because if so, holy shit do want!]

One is part of me, yes.

[Huh? Part of her? That's just strange.]

Evidently a... different type of biosuit than the kinds engineered by my race.

[He's not going to let onto this, but he's not quite sure how he's supposed to "have a look at something" for her if that something is "a part of her". Is she asking to be dissected?]

I did not design it. The people that did are gone.

I am glad to see there is someone here who can discuss this with me. I have been surprised by some of the passengers' ... lack of understanding of basic concepts.

The feeling is mutual. If this suit is... a part of you, though, how am I to examine it? Or is that what I have to figure out?

I suspect there is some sort of interface, or some component that is within me that should not. Perhaps the medical bay will allow us to use their scanners?

But you mentioned weapons? If we found some scrap, you could build something you think?
