"Is this recording? ...Um. Hi. This is Wirt. I'm not here right now - I-I mean, obviously, since this is a recorded message. Uh... Leave me a message and I'll get back to you, at some point."
Wow. That...actually, yeah. That does sound a lot like Monika. She hasn't been able to do much, since she's stuck inside a computer, but...she did kind of send me a poem about nails and knives and useless characters that was vaguely threatening?
[She also definitely sent it with a scream that made him jump out of his skin but he's going to skip that part.]
Let's just hope she doesn't find a robot she can jump to. [He glances at the door nervously.] Though... there are a bunch of robots here. That's... not great.
I don't know anything about robots, but...she had a body at the carnival. Like, a real body. She said she asked the Red Queen if she could have one she just gave her one, and said she could use it for a week. As far as I know there weren't any other catches, which is kind of weird?
Only for a week? [Dipper frowns.] Yeah, that is weird. And potentially dangerous. I don't love the idea of her not being confined to the network, but I also bet that if she gets just a taste for a real body and then has it taken away…. Well, she seems like she might take extreme measures to get what she wants.
...you're probably fine. [Maybe. Sort of.] There aren't as many electronics here as back home so like, she can't wipe out your bank account or mess with stoplights or anything.
[Wirt looks absolutely horrified by the future and the weird ways a computer could totally kill him or ruin his life if it wanted to.]
I-I mean...I guess? Do you get a LOT of potentially malevolent computer people in the future? Like, do you always have to worry about stoplights glitching and bank accounts getting wiped out for no reason?!

Sometimes I forget that you're from the eighties.

H-How much trouble am I in exactly?
