## Basic Files:

The Leaper Fai was born from the high density alloy in an experimental laboratory. She values accuracy, is generally quite stern, and pursues higher densities with a persistence as unmovable as the notches on a scale. For this reason, she carries food resembling small blocks of concrete on her at all times that is actually a supplement help her maintain her body density.

Her absolute rationality and self-discipline has made her a loanword for reliability throughout base and a dependable companion to all the Leapers. You can do anything with her and feel safe, as long as you don't lose control.

## Deep Level Files

### Background Story (I): Secret Weapon

All us Leapers know, Ms. Fai has secret weapon that can guarantee that she successfully completes all her missions-- a timetable! To prove to Captain Gaia that I'm just as reliable as the next gal, I got my hands on one of these "secret weapons"! Lets see here...

5:00 Wake up, stretch.

5:30 Charge energy.

7:00 Clean dormitory,

8:00 Begin missions

....

What in the world... this isn't useful at all! Does being a reliable grown up mean you have to be this boring? I can't do it, I'll have to find another plan!

"Hey! Um, you probably shouldn't just throw that away, wouldn't Ms. Fai be upset if she lost it?"

It's that tattletale Manis-- who cares!

Fai is way more accurate than this timetable, she's got no use for it!

### Background Story (II): Density and Accuracy

A particularly troublesome customer has been coming to the shop recently-- Ms. Fai.

To no one's surprise, she immediately bought the density testing equipment in the store which I had done my absolute best to procure. It was an all new, state of the art device in perfect condition. Then she went to Doctor Wood to requisition a microchip that she could implant in her own body and use to connect to her new equipment. That way she could detect every change in body density that ever occurs within herself.

However--

Ms. Fai soon came back to the shop looking for me. She said the equipment I sold her was faulty because the display could only show numbers to the second decimal, so it must be inferior somehow.

....

It's hard to describe what I felt in that moment but it was by far the hardest business negotiation I've had to deal with in years. It finally ended when I agreed to procure new equipment for her.

I lost so much money from this deal....

### Background Story (III): Mission Procedure

There are a few Leapers on base that are a little afraid of going on missions with Fai. There's only one reason: before every mission, Fai meticulously goes over the contents and procedures of the mission, and if any of the details somehow contradict each other, she asks relentlessly about the discrepancy until everyone's clear.

The less courageous Leapers make more mistakes the more nervous they get, like Yuan or Golin.

All the Leapers that are familiar with her, however, know that that's just how she is-- serious about the discipline of others, and even more serious about her own self-discipline. The mission procedures Fai creates for herself are as clear as if an advanced Al had designed them: time is accurate to the millisecond, distance is measured to the millimeter, missions lead into one another fluidly without breaks, and not an ounce of time, resources, or energy go to waste.

Captain Gaia must feel a little calmer knowing there's a Leaper like this around!

### Background Story (IV): Nutritional Supplements

Leaper Fai's dormitory is like a Schrodinger puzzle, sometimes when I open the door it's so neat that I can run in my standard pattern once around the room and it's clean.

Other times there are all kinds of things strewn all over the floor and I can hardly get through the door!

I was so curious about this that I once hid behind her table to see what would happen. After a little while,the Leaper Eggzy tiptoed in.

"Heheh- She's gotta have those special snacks hidden somewhere around here!"

I think I found the source of the mess.... But just what exactly is she looking for?

"There you are! I found it!" Eggzy cried out in excitement and popped a small cube into her mouth. "Plitt-- ugh, that's disgusting!"

She threw a bottle on the floor and left.

Alright... I'm going to have to leave this mess to Ms. Fai.

### Background Story (V): Disaster and New Life

I saw in Ms. Fai's Leaper Files that her birthday is listed as the day she arrived at base. Of course I remember that day, Fai is so special that as soon as I saw her I was filled with a mixture of shocked amazement and new curiosity about the world.

Strictly speaking, Ms. Fai was born from the universal explosion. A block of alloy came to life in a laboratory and took on a form I could never have imagined; the meaning expressed in her file motivated a burst of feeling and concern in me.

With my human will, I sometimes feel a sort of pride, even arrogance, but Ms. Fai has taught me to break through such a narrow vision of self.

In this vast universe, we cannot know why that piece of alloy would develop emotions; nor can we ever be sure that a broken bridge didn't collapse out of its own cowardice. Just like we can never know the origins of the explosion.

Ms. Fai came to life in a moment of disaster: we should likewise move towards a new world after experiencing the collapse of the old.
