How to use this page:

This is a listing of every "entry" in a given game conversation as scraped from the game files. Entries often contain written dialogue, as well as conditional logic governing their appearance to the player. They also link to other entries, sometimes automatically and sometimes through player action. This page is best used to search for a specific word or phrase, as following the links in this format can be difficult. For an experience that better accommodates the branching structure of these conversations, see the corresponding interactive page.

Column definitions:
  • ID: a numerical index for the entry within this conversation.
  • Character: the character speaking or acting.
  • Dialogue: prose containing spoken dialogue and other description.
  • Conditions: logical checks governing this entry appearing or occurring.
  • Links: entries that might follow this one, depending on conditions and player choice. Most links are internal to this conversation, external links to other conversations are marked with the format (conversation ID, entry ID).

2 Composure Hear that? Magnesium. That's what you're lacking. The lack of magnesium has you slouched.
  • 3
3 Electrochemistry The magnesium levels in your blood are dangerously low. It's about the low magnesium levels and *not* the high alcohol levels.

6 You So there's a lack of magnesium in me?
  • 9
7 You My magnesium level is fine. [Discard thought.]
8 Electrochemistry Yeah, the other things! Long live the other things! Made you strong as an ox, they have.

9 Composure Yes, and it's critical. Look at yourself. You're practically devolving into a fish due to the lack of magnesium in you bloodstream.

10 You I need to Mag it up?
  • 12
11 You So I need to Mag it sideways?

12 Composure You need to get *SO* magged up! You've probably had two heart attacks and a minor stroke already... and the only prescription is insane amounts of magnesium.
  • 13
13 Endurance One stroke? Don't be so modest. He's having one right now.

14 Composure Mag it sideways? What are you talking about?! You need to Mag it *up*! You've probably had two heart attacks and a minor stroke already... and the only prescription is insane amounts of magnesium.

15 You You're saying... I need to become a Magnesium-Based Lifeform?
  • 17
16 You I need is to stop thinking about this. [Discard thought.]
17 Composure Yes. If you want to live, you need to *evolve*. You need to transcend the carbon barrier. Go to the apothecary and buy insane amounts of magnesium -- it will reverse the damage to your circulatory system.

21 Electrochemistry Just remember -- it's not the alcohol. Buy more of that too. Alcohol is *not* the problem.

22 Electrochemistry And it's certainly not the dextroamphetamine.
  • 25
23 Electrochemistry Nor pyrholidon, that sweet, sweet psychoactive radiation drug.
  • 24
24 Electrochemistry Nor smoking for forty years. It's the lack of magnesium. And excess of coffee. You should stop drinking coffee. It wreaks havoc on your gastrointestinal system.
