Requesting something for something   (past tense requested it for)

This action effectively replaces the library's asking it for action. Like asking it for it matches ASK BOB FOR SOMETHING, but unlike asking it for it makes no assumptions that this is equivalent to BOB, GIVE ME SOMETHING. Instead it can match any object known to the player, and the response can be anything we care to define.
