[ 002 | VOICE/VIDEO ] late at night
Howdy, folks.
[It's fairly late at night. You may have heard that drawl around. Or maybe you heard about a guy with a Texan accent setting fire to a pile of lingerie in a sex shop by accident. Either or.]
So. This ain't my first time around alien technology. Last extraterrestrials I met wrecked my property and tried to kill me. Then me and some other fellas stole their guns and forcefed 'em beer until they crashed.
[nOW WE DON'T HAVE TIME TO UNPACK ALL OF THAT--]
But these folks are alright by my standards. And all this... cybernetic enhancement and augmentation business has me curious:
Anybody here got something similar in 'em? Prosthetics, bionics, cybernetic enhancements... anything along them lines. And since it wouldn't be fair if I didn't meet ya'll halfway--
[Video comes on. It's a downward shot of Engineer sitting at a desk chair, his device's camera pointed at his skeleton-like metal hand. He open and closes the fist, splays fingers out, turns them over - and wiggles them.]
This here's the Gunslinger. Pretty as you please. Designed by my grandfather, built by me. Oh, and there's my heart too, but... can't exactly pop that open for y'all. Heheh.
Anyway, I'm just curious. I been thinkin' about how different places come up with different ways to fix the parts we've either lost... or wanna improve on. One way or another.
[And, after a pause--]
While I'm at it... can anyone tell me a decent area to buy garage space? [Prismagram is: Now Looking For Recommendations.]

What a reckless procedure. )
I'm not even sure what to say to that, Dell, or where to begin. But I suppose so long as you've had no adverse effects...
( Then, murmuring to herself as she stands up and just sort of... wanders off: ) Baboon hearts, really.
( She's back with a fresh cup of coffee and starting a new reply, visibly having thought about it. )
And the obvious answer hadn't been to simply allow someone the ability to heal and slightly lessen the invulnerability, I suppose.

But all due respect? I've taken more bullets than anyone can reasonably treat. Even him - and he's clean crazy. I can't exactly go bulletproof whenever I wanna without his medigun, but it's got its uses.

If you say so, ma'am.
