Audio Logs of Jacob Norris, Rapture, circa 1958

“Best drink I ever had was a tin cup of rotgut just after throwing the last seam up on Hephaestus. I remember thinking, ‘We just built paradise a heart. Ain’t never gonna top this.’”

“Some of us been talking about changes in the labor laws down here…but ya gotta be careful. In Rapture, talkin’ can disappear a fella. Not just his body, either, but his stuff too, and all records of him. People stop sayin’ his name, for fear. But not me. I’ll go down to Ryan HQ and weld my name across the building in 40-foot letters!”

“That’s it fat cats. Revolution, right now! Needle goes here…just a push, and…ahhhh…” (breaks out in song) “OOooooo…In our hands is placed a power greater than their hoarded gold; Greater than the might of armies, magnified a thousand-fold; We can bring to birth a new world from the ashes of the old; For the union makes us strooooooong!” (laughs insanely)
