While it was caught, we... tried to use the podium in that room. We were supposed to - recalibrate something.
...so we did, even though something was making us feel... tired, and like someone else would handle it. When we did, our bodies changed, painfully. It was - it was a lot like what I said happened in the simulation room when I investigated it there.
[...]
It didn't last long. They went back to normal, and that was when the creature got free of the door. I kicked it when it started to open its beak, since the last time it did that, another beak came out and attacked us...
[she sighs]
It really... didn't like that much. It fought back. It stabbed my leg with its tail, and I - lost consciousness sometime around then, because of all the blood. I don't know how we got back. When I woke up, I was in the pod.
...it's okay. It wasn't pleasant, but - if hearing about it helps you figure out anything about what's going on here, I'll retell it as many times as it takes.
...that seems to be a common theme here - how far will we go to get what we want...?
[...]
Because of the similarities between what happened in that room with the recalibration and what happened in the simulation room, though, I wonder if it's... maybe a hint as to what started all of this. [she sighs] Of course I can't know for sure, but...

Thanks for telling me. I know it must have been difficult to recount it, especially so soon afterwards.

With ours, the choice at the end seems like it was more about testing us how far we'd go.

she can't really fault him for making that face, considering all of the shenanigans they get up to]
I'm sure we'll all try to do better, though.
