"...do they magically appear fish if you dunk them in water?"

"Can you catch and release? We could stock the ocean!"

"What would the fish eat?"

"There's already some plankton in there, plankton are tiny and Dirt Project got some decades ago, the photosynthesizers first and then once they were established some other ones..."

"I thought we didn't know how well they'd been established. I've never seen, like, algae, in the ocean."

"I don't think the fish are alive enough to swim and I really wouldn't expect releasing them to result in them making more fish. Fishing doesn't just get you fish though it also gets you crates and some other stuff. Some of that would include weapons but I think a lot depends on whether biome specific catches are available. The weapons available by default are pretty safe."

"I know a guy whose Thing is his sword."

"Your samurai buddy?"

"Yeah."

"Yeah, I would only really worry if you can get hard mode weapons which would only happen if I gave you materials which might be contagious and I'm not planning to do that. Without that the worst that's available is a chainsaw shaped like a fish... Oh wait, I was forgetting about the bomb fish."

"A chainsaw could be useful for shaping tree Things."

"Will they shape? They don't just sproing back into place?"

"You can shape them, they're just more stubborn than regular trees."

"I can add the sawtooth shark to the list then. It's not really much more dangerous than a pickaxe."

"Bombs though, those we can do without."

"Yeah, I don't think there's a way for me to exclude them from what you can get by fishing. I'll have to test them to see how they work here and if that makes them safe."

"How big of bombs are we talking?"

"On my world, they had a radius of about ten feet."

"Oh, that's bad but at least it's not wreck a city bad."

"Yeah... I have ones that get much bigger than that but I'm definitely not giving those out."

"Yeah, thank you, we'd work with it if we had to, it's not like we can be exploded, but nice not to have to."

"Yeah, that makes sense. Explosives are useful for some things but they're situational and I don't think rearranging the landscape at that scale is really urgent for you. In my world they're mostly used for building boss arenas and faster mining."

"Nothing here to mine. All dirt all the way down."

"Yeah, it's really a tragedy for the world to be so  boring."

"Amen."

"Excuse me, do you guys still need the computer?"

"Oh - no, don't think so - do we?"

"Not that I know of. We can always come back if we think of something."

Out of the library they go.

"So... I think that's everything we needed to cover before I give you all magic powers. Was there anything else you wanted to ask first?"

"Are we rate limited?"

"Technically, yes because doing things takes time. But you're not limited beyond that. If you want to continuously drop things from your hand every second or two you should be able to do that as long as something is clearing space for more."

"Okay, that's more rate limited than demons, at least."

"Any of this let us fast-travel?"

"I think I mentioned the teleporters. I also have teleportation potions but I don't know for sure what they do yet so I would want to test that first."

"Do we have to be at both ends to teleport though?"

"Anything we can use to fly?"
