"Huh, interesting. I'll keep that in mind."
I take a quick glance at the surrounding area.
"Do you have any place to recommend for getting food?"
If she has a recommendation, I'll check it out. If not, I'll try to find some food, then head towards the hostel, making sure I know how to get there without having to constantly think or do the math for it. Then head over to the AGP, apologize for being late - excuses being that I was lost, I don't have a way to keep track of time, and I was speaking with a helper to find out the mathematical formula that should prevent tardiness in the future. Then go on to explain that I look forward to working with them in the future and set to work.
While I'm walking around and going from point A to point B, furiously thinking occurs regarding my future plans.
Well, this is all temporary, anyway. I do want to see if there's an AI complex out in space somewhere, possibly by way of That Which Wanders the Dark, and I want to see about the telporting / spatial tunnel thing that got me to Distra. Also, AI. First step though is to adjust and establish myself here.
The hostel works for now, but after working for a bit and accruing quite a bit of 'marks' I need to get a place for myself. Then the real work begins.
The first step would be to write actual code - something to make the job easier, even if only by way of combing through everything to find certain useful bits without having to do it all manually. A series of complex loops should take care of that, it would certainly be far faster, but only once I've adjusted to the job. If it fails I still need to be able to do the job satisfactory.
Once that is done, the next step would be to comb through code to see if I can piece together a rudimentary AI. That might not work, but of equal priority is getting in touch with That Which Wanders the Dark to see if I can learn the skills from him. It. Whatever. Even something simple like a VI would be better, though obviously an AI is preferred.
If an AI won't work, and a VI isn't workable, then I need to set out to make or find a series of complex programs that can work together coherently to achieve my task. Even if only to make the job easier and more efficient.
This is all going to take a lot of time, so once I get my own place free time that isn't spent eating, sleeping, going to whatever passes for a library or archive to read, will all be spent on Luck Magic. Magic exists so naturally I need to master it, or even if not master, then be reliably effective with it.
Nothing but time, so let's get on that. Time to work.
