Rosie Martínez

"Rosie Martínez is the colony’s talented mechanical engineer. Blind from birth, she has never let her disability hinder her adventurous nature. She has a knack for fixing things and possesses many patents for her original designs. Respected by her peers on the home planet, Rosie now uses her gifts to aid you in your colonization of Viridis Primus."

- Verdant Skies Rosie Martínez is a mechanical engineer. She is the first person the player meets after they crash into Viridis Primus. She is blind. She is the twin sister of Ramón Martínez.

First contact
The spaceship will crash on the coast of Viridis Primus, and the player will be met with an unnamed character, who will later reveal herself to be Rosie Martínez. The player will then have their first conversation with another character:
 * Rosie: ''¿Hola? Did you survive that rough landing?
 * Just barely! That ship is a death trap!
 * I didn't work on the transportation for the colonists. You won't have trouble like that with anything I make you.
 * I've had better days, but I'll live.
 * I'm glad you're not hurt! It looks like your ship wasn't so lucky.
 * You must be ! We've been expecting you. I'm Rosie Martínez. The colony's mechanical engineer. Actually, I'm a space mechanical engineer now. Yeah ... That sounds much more interesting!

The screen will dim and show an image and description of Rosie. Afterwards, dialogue will continue.


 * Rosie: I came to check on you and see if we could salvage any of your ship. Do you see any scrap laying around? —  (++ friendship.) 

The player will then be tasked with locating Scrap. This is not a proper job, because they do not have their interplanetary mail system set up until they meet Jade Washington. There is a piece of Scrap to be picked up just north of the crash site. Picking it up will give the player the This Pun Is Scrap achievement. Rosie will walk up to them and continue the conversation:
 * Rosie: ¡Bueno! You found a piece of scrap. That'll come in handy. Keep your eyes open for more wreckage as you explore this planet. We'll need it to build you a shelter. Follow me. There's someone you should meet.

Schedule
Rosie mostly can be find in her shop.

There's no difference between Summer or Eclipse season.

Small talk
Talking with characters outside of job duties can improve the player's relationship with them. Rosie can say any of the following when engaging in small talk with her:


 * You can tell a lot about a person based on their favorite tool.
 * What's yours?
 * Wrench!
 * I never leave home without mine! —  (++ friendship.) 
 * Definitely clamps.
 * Ah, one of the most vital yet under appreciated tools. Good call! —  (+ friendship.) 
 * My computer.
 * That’s not quite what I had in mind. —  (- friendship.) 
 * I like hammers!
 * That's... nice.

''I understand why we needed to pack light ... I just wish I could have brought more tools!''


 * Two power inverters, 1/8 inch steel plate, 3/4 inch bolts ...
 * ¡Ay! You startled me. — The relationship bar will fill up slightly.''
 * Sorry, ... I have to remember the list of things I need Jade to order. We can talk later!
 * Okay, now that's two power inverters, 3/4 inch steel plate, 1/8 inch bolts ...


 * Hi, ! Isn't it strange how you can go days here without seeing anyone else?
 * If you get lonely, feel free to stop by my place. I sure would appreciate the company!


 * We're so far from home ...
 * But this place feels remarkably the same.


 * Do you like it here, ?
 * It's too quiet.
 * I agree. Good thing we have one another for company!
 * It's nice.
 * I'm glad you're adjusting to life in space.

This instance is a reference to a prior small talk conversation in which Rosie struggles to remember whether to order 1/8 inch steel plates and 3/4 inch bolts or 3/4 inch steel plates and 1/8 inch bolts.
 * Jade ordered the wrong materials for me.
 * She swears it's what I told her ... But I couldn't make such a silly mistake.
 * Could I?
 * What will I do with all these 1/8 inch bolts and 3/4 inch steel plates?

''I love the sound of flowing water. It's so relaxing!''


 * Thanks for coming by to chat! I hope we become very good friends.
 * Now get back to work before Jade gets mad at me!


 * Machines speak to me.
 * Not like, "Hi, Rosie, que pasa?"
 * More like "buzz, clunk, beep."
 * What did you think I meant?


 * I don't think there's any problem that can't be solved with technology.
 * Except maybe being rude.
 * We still haven't found a fix for that!


 * “Hey, ! Did you find anything unusual when you went into the marsh?
 * Yeah, a neat red fungus!
 * That's not exactly what I had in mind.
 * No, nothing unusual.
 * Oh, that's too bad. I was hoping you would.
 * Whenever I'm out by myself, I could swear that something is watching me!
 * Honestly, I was sure you'd find an alien in the marsh.
 * No aliens in there.
 * I wonder if my imagination is getting the better of me?
 * Maybe they were hiding?
 * I'm not sure if you really believe that,, but thanks for not teasing me. —  (+ friendship.) 
 * Aliens? Haha, are you serious!?
 * You don't have to make fun of me. I'm positive we aren't alone here. —  (- friendship.) 


 * Can you believe we're the first people to set foot on this planet?! —  (+ friendship.) 
 * Hmm ... Pero ... Maybe we're not?
 * Yeah, maybe.
 * Do you really think we might not be alone!?


 * Sorry I don't have the time to chat right now, .
 * Bet you never thought you'd hear me say that!

Relationship progress events
When the player is advancing from one stage (heart) in a relationship to the next, it is done so through an event.

First Green heart
The player can reach the first green heart by visiting Rosie's shop when her relationship bar is full.

¿Hola?

When I signed up for this trip, I didn't think about how few people would be here. I have my work to keep me busy, but sometimes it's nice to just chat with someone. Jade isn't really big on small talk. ''So tell me a little about yourself. What brought you to Viridis Primus?''
 * Feel like chatting?
 * Come on in. I was just about to take a break.
 * Oops! Wrong house.
 * Really, ?! There are only a few buildings on the entire planet. Come on in. I was just about to take a break.
 * I hadn't noticed.
 * ''Maybe it is just me then. Plenty of people have told me I talk too much!
 * She sure isn't!
 * I'm sure she'll warm up to us in time.

The screen dims, and 1 hour passes.

''Thanks for hanging out with me for a bit,. It was nice to have some human interaction. Sorry if I rambled on for too long! I'm just used to having mi hermano around. I miss him quite a bit. He's my twin. Sometimes it feels like half of me is missing without him here. ¡Hijole! Look at the time! I'e kept you from your work for way too long. If Jade asks, we were talking about work, okay? — (Relationship advances to the first green heart.)''

Second Green heart
The player can reach the second green heart by visiting Rosie's shop between 11 am and 1: 30 pm, when her relationship bar is full and the first green heart has been reached.


 * ¿Quién es?
 * Boo!
 * ¡Hijole, ! That's not nice. You startled me! Since you're already here, why don't you stay for lunch?
 * It's me, .
 * Hi, ! Please stay for lunch.

''I've prepared something very special today. It's a recipe mi tío taught me. Greasy Gears!''


 * Sounds delicious!
 * That's the spirit! I knew you were the adventurous type. Not to disappoint you, but Greasy Gears is just a goofy name for veggie burgers.
 * I've lost my appetite ...
 * Don't worry! It's just a goofy name for his veggie burgers.

My uncle has a great sense of humor!

The screen dims, you regain 30 energy and 2 hours passes.

''I never considered that! You'd make a better mechanic than you might think! ¡Hijole! It's getting late!''


 * I have all day for you!
 * That's sweet, but I really have some things I need to finish. — (+ friendship.) 
 * I'd better go.
 * I understand, you've got a lot to do.

''Here's his recipe if you'd like to make Greasy Gears yourself sometime! I really enjoyed our chat. We'll have to get together again soon. ¡Adios! — (Unlock new recipe: Veggie Burger.) ''

The next day, the player receives a letter from Rosie titled "Thanks for lunch" that reads, "Hey, I just wanted to say thanks for coming over yesterday!"

Third Green heart
The player can reach the third green heart by visiting Rosie's shop, when her relationship bar is full and the second green heart has been reached.

Hola, .


 * How'd you know it's me?
 * I'm psychic. Just kidding! I could hear you coming. I've been around you enough now that I can recognize your footsteps.
 * Hello!

''Do you have a minute? Please come into my workshop. I could really use your help with something. I am having some trouble upgrading my locator device. It's kind of a personal project, so it's been difficult to convince to help.''


 * $Hailey's kind of selfish!
 * ¡Hijole!, don't let her hear you say such things! You'd be in so much trouble! Let's focus on the task at hand.
 * What is the device for?

''This device tracks my location relative to my home. But the range is limited so I can't go very far from the colony right now.''


 * How can I help?

''I'm used to having my uncle around to lend a hand. I never realized how much I depended on him until he wasn't here to help me. I need you to fill in for him and look over my work to make sure I didn't miss something.''


 * I'm not very mechanically inclined!
 * I understand, . Forget it. Sorry to have bothered you.
 * Sorry ... Good luck though.
 * That's okay, . I'll figure it out eventually. ¡No te preocupes! I won't go far until I've tested it. Adios.
 * I'll still try!
 * I'll do what I can!

''¡Gracías, ! I'll explain everything!''

The screen dims, and 2 hours passes.

''That should do it! Thank you so much for your help, ! I've already wasted enough of your time for today. Maybe you can help me test this later. ¡No te preocupes! I won't go far until I've tested it. ¡Adios!''

First Blue heart
The player can reach the first blue heart by visiting Rosie's shop, when her relationship bar is full and the third green heart has been reached.

''Now if I just ... ¡Carajo!''


 * Are you okay?!
 * Ah, ! ¡Perdóname! I ... I didn't hear you come in.
 * That was loud!
 * ¡Ay Dios mío, ! When did you come in?


 * What was that noise?
 * Oh, nothing important! I was just trying to repair something for $Hailey. Looks like I have a little extra work to do ...
 * Do you need some help?
 * I can work on this later. If you've got time, I'd love to test the distance on my locator device.
 * I guess so.
 * Don't sound so excited, .
 * I'd love to.
 * ¡Gracias! You're such a great friend, !

''I'm curious how far I can roam with the device. ¡Vamonos! I'd love to check out the mountains. Jade said there's a cave up there. Please take me to it!''

The screen dims, and 1 hour passes.

''This is so exciting! I'm pretty sure I can find my way back here to get ore. I think I hear water to the east. Can we please go rest there a while?''


 * Of course!
 * You're the best, camarada! Thank you for being so patient with me. I love the gentle sound of lapping water. This is nice, but we should head back. Please let me lead the way home to be sure this is really working.


 * Let's go back.
 * Oh ... What was I thinking taking up so much of your time?
 * We can go if you really want.
 * You're the best, camarada! Thank you for being so patient with me. I love the gentle sound of lapping water. This is nice, but we should head back. Please let me lead the way home to be sure this is really working.
 * Don't worry about it.
 * Please let me lead the way home to be sure this is really working.

The screen dims, and 1 hour passes.

''I guess this means it works! I'd invite you in ... But I have a family matter to deal with.''


 * I understand.
 * Thanks for not prying.


 * Everything ok?
 * I'd rather not talk about it.

''I'm going to tell mi mamá about you when I call home tonight. She will be relieved to know that there's someone looking out for me here. It will make the rest of our conversation a little easier to bear. Thanks again for all your help today, camarada. Being able to explore by myself sometimes will be nice. Of course that doesn't mean you should stop coming by. See you again soon.''

Second Blue heart
The player can reach the second blue heart by visiting Rosie's shop between 4 and 6 pm, when her relationship bar is full and the first blue heart has been reached.

''Of course. Of course you would do this to us again. ... Oh,. I'm sorry I'm such a mess. You've caught me at a really bad time.''


 * I'll go.
 * No! ... Perdóname. I ... I just would rather not be alone right now ... Please. Stay a while.
 * Are you okay?

''I just received news from mi tío. My father passed away ... Rather suddenly. At least, it was suddenly for us. I guess he had been sick for a while. I don't even know why I'm upset. I've lost count of the times I've said he was dead to me ... Or wished he was. And now that he actually is ... There's so many things I needed to say to him. And now I will never get the chance.''


 * I'm so sorry.

''Do you remember when we tested my locator device? I wanted to spend more time with you that day. But I couldn't because I needed to call mi Mamá. Do you get along with your family, camarada?''


 * Yes.
 * That's good.
 * No.
 * That's too bad.
 * Some of them.
 * I think it's that way for most of us.
 * I have no family.
 * I'm so sorry ... As much as they can cause me pain, I would be lost without them. I can't imagine ...

''Our father left when my twin brother and I were born. It was my fault. He knew my blindness would be costly and hard to deal with. But he'd still come around sometimes, uninvited. Then he'd never show up when he promised he would. We never really expected much from him. I called mi Mamá that day because my father had sent me a package. It was a box of strawberry candies and a stuffed rabbit. The note said "for all the birthdays I've missed." He must have known he was dying but didn't tell me.''


 * What a jerk.
 * ¡Cállate! Don't speak ill of the dead!
 * Are you okay?
 * For all his failings, he was still my father. Thank you for being here. Just talking to someone about him makes this a little easier. I really appreciate your friendship, .

''I don't want to be rude ... But I have some things I need to take care of now. I need to check on mi Mamá. She always had more faith in him than I. This will have hit her hard. Thank you again, camarada. You really are dear to me.''

Third Blue heart
The player can reach the third blue heart by visiting Rosie's shop, when her relationship bar is full and the second blue heart has been reached.

''I'm glad you're here, camarada! There's been something on my mind I'd like to discuss with you.''


 * Should I be worried?
 * You should always worry when I want to talk. You may not escape for hours!
 * You can tell me anything.
 * I know. It's one of the things I like about you.

'' Ahh! This was a lot easier in my mind. '' I've been doing a lot of thinking since I lost my father. Life is so short, . I wish I had done things differently with him ... Tried harder to get along. Forgave him ... Before it was too late.


 * It's not your fault.
 * Here you are. Trying to cheer me up again.
 * You can't undo the past.
 * You're right, camarada.

''I cannot change what has already happened. But I can learn from it and not make the same mistakes. ...''

First Red heart
The player can reach the first red heart by visiting Rosie's shop between 6 pm and 10 pm, when her relationship bar is full and the third blue heart has been reached and dating Rosie.

''¡Buenos noches, ! Tonight I thought I'd try something a little different. I made us some fish tacos from some fish I caught today.''


 * I don't eat meat. #1 — (Her answer change if you answered that you think that animals are delicious during a small talk.) 
 * But ... You once told me that animals were "delicious!" Were you just teasing me, ? Well, let me get you some salad anyway.
 * I don't eat meat. #2
 * Oh, sorry, ! Let me get you some salad.
 * I love tacos!
 * Let's eat!

The screen dims, you regain 30 energy and 1 hour passes.

''You're so funny, ! I always enjoy spending time with you. I can't believe I haven't asked you yet. Do you dance?''


 * No, never!
 * I bet I can change your mind.
 * All the time!
 * Let's dance!

The screen dims, and 1 hour passes.

''¡Hijole, ! You can dance with me any time! I like our rhythm. ... I mean you've got great rhythm. We should dance more often. If you would like to, that is ...''


 * I still don't like to dance. — (This option is available if you said that you never dance.) 
 * Okay, . I won't make you dance again.


 * I'll dance with you anytime!
 * I'd like that.
 * I don't think I can keep up!
 * Oh, I think you can! You've definitely got the moves. We'll just have to work on your stamina!

''Oh! It's so late. You'd better go. Buenos noches, .''

Second Red heart
The player can reach the second red heart by visiting Rosie's shop around lunchtime, when her relationship bar is full and the first red heart has been reached.

''¡Hola, ! Let's go on a picnic!''

The screen dims, and 1 hour passes.

(Zaheen told me about this place. Isn't it peaceful?) ''Strawberries! Importing fresh produce is not cheap! Don't they look delicious?''


 * I hate strawberries.
 * Hmm. That's too bad. More for me, I guess! Maybe there's another fruit in here you'd enjoy.
 * I love strawberries!
 * Perfect! We can indulge in the extravagance together.
 * I'm allergic ...
 * Oh! I'm so sorry, ! I didn't even think about that possibility. Maybe there's another fruit in here you'd enjoy.

There's something I want to talk to you about, ... No need to worry this ''time. I'm not asking anything of you. I'm not sure exactly where to start. I suppose it only makes sense to begin with "gracias." Thank you for treating me like a person.''


 * Why wouldn't I?
 * I guess you aren't like most people.
 * Do other people not?

''A lot of people treat me differently when they realize I can't see. Some act like I'm a child that needs protecting. Others ... like I'm broken or something. My family couldn't afford the expensive implants that would have allowed me to see as a child. By the time I had the resources to get them I had decided I didn't want them. Do you think that's foolish of me, ?''


 * A little ...
 * Really? You'd like me better if I could see?! ... I'm sorry, . I know you don't feel that way. It's just a sensitive topic for me. Maybe it is silly to pass up vision implants, but I don't feel like it is.
 * Not at all!
 * Thank you for understanding.
 * It's your choice.

''Mi Mamá always told me I didn't need to change for anybody. I think she is right. I can't see the world the way most people do, but our differences are what make us beautiful. If everyone were the same, just imagine how boring that would be! There I go again, rambling on! Let's finish our picnic and head back.''

The screen dims, you regain 30 energy and 1 hour passes.

''I had a great time today. See you again soon, .''

Third Red heart
The player can reach the third red heart by visiting Rosie's shop, when her relationship bar is full and the second red heart has been reached. This event will determine if you'll married together, move in, stay/be a couple or break up.

''Bienvenido. Come on in.''

Music Box
When the player first sleeps in their home, Rosie will wake them up to give them a Music Box as a gift. It comes preloaded with the default songs—Background 1, Background 2, Background 3, Eclipse Theme, Adaptive Theme, Adaptive Eclipse Theme—as well as Rosie's Theme. The player will hear a knock on their door as they attempt to wake up, and will have the following conversation with Rosie: ''¡Buenos días, ! Rise and shine!''


 * Isn't it kind of early, Rosie?
 * Sorry, [Player Name]! I thought everyone was awake by now.
 * What time is it?
 * Did I wake you? It's time to get up, lazy bones! The early bird catches the worm. Then again, the early worm gets eaten...

I have something for you. I felt awful about your ship exploding and Jade making you pay for it. ''So I made you this music box. You can use it to play any music discs you receive. I loaded a couple songs to start you off, but I'm sure other people will be more than happy to share their favorites too! I'll let you get ready for the day. ¡Hasta luego, !''
