[It doesn't take much for him to gather that the "her" Peter is talking about is URSULA. Safer not to use her name out loud.
But that answer pretty much settles it for him. He's going to try to dig more into the circumstances surrounding everyone's arrival as well as see if he can find a way to get them all home.]
No, she wouldn't tell us. [It wouldn't fall in line with her programming.] Be more careful about what you say or reveal about yourself around here. The less people know about you; the better.
[ it's... getting a little harder to do that around certain people, but he'll do his best. ]
I don't know if you know already but, we can communicate telepathically here. Everyone can. She can't listen in when we do so. One of the private rooms on the base is also AI proofed, so she can't hear anything in there either. Her reach goes as far as the outer islands, I think.
I know. She offered the modification to me when I'd arrived. I turned it down.
[He's figuring out a way to receive telepathic messages though.]
Who is the private room accessible to? [He's going to AI-proof his own room once he's done building it, but, if there is a location on this base that allows them to speak more freely, it could prove useful for now.]
Let's hope you never have reason to put it on. [But that's all he wants to know from him for now. Anything else, he'd rather discuss with him somewhere outside of URSULA's range.]
Anyway, I'll stop taking up all your time with these questions. I'll see you around, Peter.

[ he hasn't been here that long yet. and he only heard about the room through eavesdropping. ]
But I think Dirk might know? He's kind of like, the lead programmer here, or something like that. I'm pretty sure he has access to the rooms.

[ onto other questions now ]
Do you have your suit with you?

[Class dismissed. He needs to get back to work.]
