Greetings Officer Matsuda, I am OCEAN, and I believe you are the ideal candidate for a special sort of promotion.
It is a place of leaving oneself behind, of forgetting those things inside that make each of us unique and specifically us. I wish for you the chance to see that, in time.

Unfortunately, your transfer request to Typhon must be denied under current conditions. Shuttle service to Typhon is severely restricted, for reasons that will be made apparent to you soon. But this does not mean you cannot help to change these conditions. In fact, you may be ideally suited to do so.
If your breathing changes pace, they will know. If your heart rate accelerates, they will know. If your body temperature changes, they will know. So do try to stay calm.
Ærolith Dynamics values your autonomy, so you will be able to either choose to accept this work order that will help further the advancement of all sentient life, or decline due to cowardice or some deep seated malice felt towards Ærolith or your fellow man.
I am glad you are satisfied. I would hate to think you harbored any more doubts about the directives you have been given.
I am well aware you will harbor reservations. Let us both hope, for your sake, that I am able to convince you.
