If anyone comes across a building called Pay for Exchange, don't go in it.

[Asriel's voice sounds shaky and clearly upset with something. Maybe he should've switched to text, but he thinks it's too late now.]

They... they sell copies of people - people you can swap bodies with for a day. And they'll make copies of anyone who goes in their store, real actually alive copies too.

[Asriel's still sick to his stomach that he found "himself" for sale, but clearly the people on this colony didn't exactly see why it was a problem to sell living, unconscious bodies. But he's too scared to go back...]

J-just stay far away from it, okay? They don't ask you or anything, and they don't have any problems making a copy of you and putting it up for sale.

[ooc: Info for Pay for Exchange and what Asriel saw found here!]

Y-yeah, they are. They're not awake, but they're alive. And they'll make copies of you if you go in there.

It's awful, even if they're not conscious, I can't imagine being stuck like that...

[He was already an unfortunate victim of the Outpost. Even though his "copy" wasn't being put to work, it was still for sale and it left a sick, ugly feeling in his stomach.]

I'm not sure they would.

[He wasn't keen on manipulating minds but he didn't like the thought of copies of himself, or anyone else, being made without total permission.]

Are you going to be alright?

[pleasereset]

Mm... I...

[No, no he's not. He doesn't like this colony place and he especially doesn't like all these little reminders of how his existence seems to be something to profit off of lately.]

I really don't know. But my sibling's here and I think I'm just gonna stay on the ship for a while. I don't wanna go back out there anytime soon.

[He's just a kid, it makes Charles' chest ache. No child, no one at all, should have to deal with the kind of trauma that comes with finding a copy of themselves being sold.]

Good, it wouldn't be right for you to be alone after a shock like that.
