Messages

During combat, every turn one of the following:

• <name> gets in front of your opponent and dodges very slowly. It's pretty cool looking, but doesn't seem likely to hurt anyway.

• <name> teaches your opponent X damage worth of kung fu.

• <name> fires a bolt of lighting at your opponent X (electric) damage. You assume it's static from working on too many computers, but <name> assures you that's just how humans work.

At the end of encounters:

• <name> offers you a pill to make you larger and a pill to make you small. Turns out you misheard and it just makes you smart. You gain X XP.

• <name> backs up some data from your computer. You gain X XP. I mentioned the part where it's backing up to your brain, right? Good, I'd hate to think I'd missed that.

• <name> offers you a pill to make you larger and a pill to make you small. Turns out only your brain grows, so your kaiju dreams will have to wait for another day. You gain X XP.

At the end of encounters, sometimes:

• In the process, you also learn a few tricks for decrypting software. You should be able to shave off a few minutes.

• <name> has something left over after feeding your head. Rather than letting it go to waste, you add it to your ever-growing inventory.
