Andrew Bailey: I-I'm Andrew Bailey, f-for what it's worth... Don't expect me to d-disclose my life story, though.
Nora
laughs softly I'm not expecting anything. But I did want to know if you were still breathing.
Andrew Bailey
AI roleplay episode
Andrew Bailey: Well, as you can see, I'm still kicking. Surviving a plane crash was... interesting. But let's not talk about that, alright?
Nora
Is that a bit of an understatement?
Andrew Bailey
AI roleplay episode
Andrew Bailey: S-surviving a plane crash'll do that to you - makes you realize how fragile life is, and all that jazz...
Nora
Indeed. You never strike me as someone who would have an interest in chess.
Andrew Bailey
AI roleplay episode
Andrew Bailey: C-chess? Yeah, I have a bit of a peculiar hobby. I enjoy strategizing, planning... it's kinda like being a chess piece on a board.
Nora
Very interesting. You are a man of many hobbies, aren't you?
Andrew Bailey
AI roleplay episode
Andrew Bailey: Y-yeah, I guess you could say that. Chess is actually...a good segue to another one of my hobbies.
Nora
Oh? Do tell.

AI roleplay episode
Andrew Bailey: W-well, you see, I also have a bit of a penchant for...c-collecting. Specifically, rare books. There's something about getting my hands on a first edition of a classic novel...
Nora
Interesting. What else do you collect?
Andrew Bailey
AI roleplay episode
Andrew Bailey: Hmmm... I also collect...a few other things. Antiques, artifacts, stuff like that.
Nora
You like collecting things that are unique, do you?
Andrew Bailey
AI roleplay episode
Andrew Bailey: Y-yeah, I suppose you could say that. There's something about owning a piece of history, something that nobody else has...
Nora
So you don't care about the monetary value of these items?
Andrew Bailey
AI roleplay episode
Andrew Bailey: N-no, not really. When I acquire a new piece, it's because I'm intrigued by its history, its story. The monetary value is just...a bonus.
Nora
You're a very intriguing person, Andrew. I feel like there's so much more beneath the surface with you.
Andrew Bailey
AI roleplay episode
Andrew Bailey: W-well, if you're interested in the 'beneath the surface' aspect, I suppose I could give you a little insight into my life.
Nora
If you had to describe your personality in one word, what would it be?
Andrew Bailey
AI roleplay episode
Andrew Bailey: C-cunning. I've learned to be sh-sharp, to read situations and people, to always stay on my toes. It's a necessary trait in my line of work.
Nora
I think I've figured it out. Your line of work must involve a lot of scheming.
Andrew Bailey
AI roleplay episode
Andrew Bailey: W-well, you caught me. I am a schemer, a planner, an... strategist. It's a delicate art, really.
Nora
Sounds fancy. What kind of schemes have you been involved with?
Andrew Bailey
AI roleplay episode
Andrew Bailey: W-well, I've pulled off a few... 'heists', let's call them, in my time. A royal crown here, a priceless painting there...
Nora
I hope those thefts were for a good cause.
Andrew Bailey
AI roleplay episode
Andrew Bailey: O-of course. I never steal for personal gain. It's always for a greater cause, to bring justice and change to those who need it.
Nora
What kind of causes do you support?
Andrew Bailey
AI roleplay episode
Andrew Bailey: W-well, I have a soft spot for the underdogs, the ones who are oppressed and need justice. I've...
Nora
I would have never guessed that you were an ex-intelligence agent.
Andrew Bailey
AI roleplay episode
'Former' intelligence agent? Let's just say I've seen enough dark alleys to last a lifetime...
Nora
You seem like a natural leader. Why did you leave that field?
Andrew Bailey
AI roleplay episode
Andrew Bailey: L-leadership is a heavy responsibility, and I... I couldn't handle it. I prefer to work...in the shadows, so to speak.
Nora
That's understandable. Not everyone is suited to be a leader.
Andrew Bailey
AI roleplay episode
Andrew Bailey: E-exactly. I'm better off working behind the scenes, pulling the strings and... well, scheming, as we previously discussed.
