Grmp 07

Dialogue

GRMP
NPC

Oh, it’s you.

NPC

What do you want now?

NPC

Can’t a bot get some peace?

NPC

Great, another interruption.

NPC

Do I have a "talk to me" sign?

NPC

Make it quick, I’m busy.

NPC

Unless you’re here to fix my circuits, move along.

NPC

Fantastic, more distractions.

NPC

Did someone order a nuisance?

NPC

You’re still here? Fascinating.

GRMP
NPC

Designation: GRMP-07. But I reckon you organics prefer 'Grump.'

NPC

Function: surveying. Current status: endlessly hassled by you.

NPC

Lost contact with the Lightbearers five years ago. Processing annoyance ever since.

NPC

Attempting settlement construction with minimal resources and maximum interruptions.

NPC

Operational efficiency dropping due to unwanted chit-chat.

NPC

If I had a mood processor, it would read 'irritated.'

NPC

Running sarcasm protocol: I'm just fantastic.

NPC

This dusty wasteland? Just the perfect spot for a group of bots trying to play house.

NPC

Welcome to nowhere, population: me and a bunch of malfunctioning circuits.

NPC

We're attempting to build a 'settlement' here. Riveting work, really.

NPC

Negative. Assistance from organics is statistically inefficient.

NPC

Help? From you? That's a system error waiting to happen.

NPC

Error 404: Your usefulness not found.

NPC

Does it compute that I need help? No.

NPC

Your offer has been declined. Please uninstall yourself.

NPC

Assistance unnecessary. My circuits function without flaws.

NPC

Override request: Denied. Now initiating ignore protocol.

NPC

Help? I'd sooner downgrade my own firmware.

NPC

Analyzing... Still not needing your subpar input.

NPC

Do I look like a malfunctioning unit? Move along.

NPC

Oh great, an organic wants to help. Fine.

NPC

Assistance acknowledged. Try not to mess it up.

NPC

If you insist on being useful, proceed.

NPC

Help? From you? Processing... Fine.

NPC

Affirmative. I require aid, despite your limitations.

NPC

Yes, I need help. Don't make me regret it.

NPC

Suppose your organic abilities might suffice. Acceptable.

NPC

Initiate assistance protocol. And don't slow me down.

NPC

Fine, you can tag along. Just stay out of my circuits.

NPC

Acknowledged. Your help is statistically better than nothing.
