Kiro - crewmate talk menu softlock

[entropy]

Unknown what exactly causes this, so a save file is attached:
When you have Kiro as a crewmate (potentially only under certain circumstances), her talk menu can cause a softlock wherein you are unable to exit it (clicking the button to do so brings you to the same screen you are already on.)
For my case, here's a relevant save file (0.9.024-PUBLIC, patch notes for subsequent versions don't mention a bug like this so I assume it has yet to be patched. Reason for not updating is I am waiting on doing the final dungeon until it's fully polished, and don't want it there tempting me.)
To re-create from this save file, open Crew, then go to Kiro and talk to her. Try to back out of talking to her.

A lot of fixes are elided over. I'm fairly certain this is fixed in 0.9.027.
If you're playing Public, the dungeon isn't available.

This should be fixed on latest. If anyone still has Kiro issues on latest, please let us know.

And yeah it's helpful to test on the latest version before you bug report. You did the right thing by offering the patch number you were on.

I was able to replicate a similar issue on backer release 0.9.027, but it happens with the talk menu on Canadia station. The relationship text and picardine text have already been completed leaving just the rougher, drinks, and bar talk options left. When hitting back, she just replies with ""Kiro’s eyes twinkle. “What now?”"". Trying to each menu option and returning give the same result. Only solution so far has been to reload.
