This may be a strange request, but we're all from different worlds so it may not be that strange after all. A friend is helping me with something, and I'm wondering if more minds to it could give her a hand. [Ha. Get it?]

She's working on developing and building me a new arm. Nothing fancy or flashy, but it'd be nice if it could have feeling.

If I can help with anything in return, I'll be happy to return the favor within reason.

wow. too bad you don't know any mechanical engineers or anything like that, huh?

such a shame.

good luck with that tho.

Does this mechanical engineer know how to work with the human nervous system?

[ How dare you see his Sarcasm and raise him Facts. FINE THEN... ]

probably about as well as your local neurosurgeon knows how to construct and work with organic electronics in the context of the prosthetic itself. not to mention design and construction. then there's calibration and upkeep...

pidge can handle it alright though.

[bitchilived]

Are you saying you want to help.

[Now who's being sarcastic.]

I assumed you'd be working with Pidge already, Hunk. Sorry I didn't say something sooner. I wouldn't want this going without your input.

[Hunk, he values your opinion a lot and trusts you to rein in Pidge's more eccentric ideas.]

[hunksmash]

she hasn't mentioned it.

so... like i said, i guess she has it handled.

[bitchilived]

We just got out of a rough cycle, so she may have been a little preoccupied. I'm sure she didn't mean it.

[hunksmash]

yeah probably. i won't worry about it then.

[ YEAH HE WILL. ]

[bitchilived]

[HUNK, HE KNOWS YOU.]

Do you have some ideas you want to pitch for the new arm?

[Hit him, he knows you have ideas, Hunk.]

[hunksmash]

three concepts for basic layout/function, two that are probably more credible than the third. but that credibility depends pretty heavily on what's available here, which is hit-or-miss because of the way the grid's set up.

so adaptation needs to be established before design.

how realistic do you need it to be? do you just want nerve function? or do you want skin and fingernails and stuff?

[bitchilived]

Just nerve function. I've gotten used to it not looking like skin.

But I figured you had some ideas already.

[hunksmash]

if i have nothing else, i have ideas.

(j/k i have lots of stuff.)
