[Nerd team game fallout goes here]

[Oh it's the girl who's bad at flirting]

Lost, Muerte?

[ oh it's that guy with the eyes ]

Finally someone calls me that. Nah, I stopped by 'cause I wanted to ask about your repair prices.

Depends on what you need repaired.

[It also helps that Intensity currently has the monopoly on the repair skill]

Me!

[Gives her a once over. What part of her actually needs repaired? Is it obvious?]

[ nope, though there's a weird lump on the side of the base of her neck. ]

Uh, hi?

[Steps aside so she can come in]

Step into my office.

[ walking in ]

Nice place. Second best aesthetic I've seen here, hands down.

[Offers her a cube chair to sit on]

I hope you're not saying your unit's the first.

[ takes a seat ]

Are you sayin' it isn't? Bad taste, dude.

So are bloody bandages as decorations.

[Takes his own seat]

Before we begin, should I expect this to be a re-occurring appointment?

Uh...

[ looks off to the side ]

Yeah, probably.

Then perhaps you and I can come to arrangement. I typically require SensitIV's services but the price is a little too high to manage in bulk. So you get me a discount, and I'll return the same discount to you.

In the meantime, repairs will cost the same as SensitIV charges for healing.

Are those terms acceptable?

Yeah, I think I can work somethin' out when I get back.

Then normal pricing for now.

[Leans forward in his chair]

What exactly do you need repaired?

[ points at her neck. ]

I got in a fight with the green dude from ☆ZRAEL. He snapped my primary coolant lines, which I fixed, but the overheatin' warped a lot of my servomotors here. The hit itself broke my speech synthesizer, too. I kinda fixed that manually but it's hard t'do repairs on myself right there. It keeps failin' every so often.

[Scoots his chair closer so he can get a closer look.]

Servomotors and speech synthesizer. Got it.

[He places a hand on her neck, just under where she pointed at]

Your whole system should probably be checked for heat damage. Did any of that coolant leak into your other systems?

Prooobably, but my nanomachines work well enough here t'take care of leaks like that even if they're way slower for everything fuckin' else.

Fascinating. Mind if I keep one those nanomachines for a closer look. In case you need them repaired someday.

[Moves his hand to touch that weird lump at the base of her neck]

[ it's pretty obviously something metal and jagged that's displaced ]

Uh. I guess, but you seem kinda mad sciencey. You're not gonna like supercharge 'em and make a nanobot army or somethin', right?

What? You're not into that?

[His runs two fingers along the jagged metal edge and (though she can't see it because it's appearing on her neck), there is a soft silver-blue light patterning binary across the broken "skin". Probably very much akin to how SensitIV's bone mending magic feels, she will feel the metal shift and form back to its proper shape. There's also a tingling sensation and the wires and circuits are being reconnected. And with a sharp shove with the heel of his palm, the servomotor gets shoved back into its original location good as new]

I'm literally 0% into th --

[ she's cut off by a music box jingling sound when he does that, and she winces. once it's back in place though she tilts her head back and forth, forwards and backwards, testing her range of motion, ]

Wow, nice job.

... What was that noise?

Huh? Oh. My joints do that when they get wangjangled sometimes.

Right...

So about those nano machines?
