So, uh, unrelated to all that grant stuff [ACADEMIA, he does not understand you] - this is the first place we've been in a while with any sort of tech, it might be worthwhile to grab more portable stuff - flashlights, two-way radios, stuff like that. And lots of batteries.

And is there anyone good at building stuff? I've got a favor to ask.

Oi, would you lemme look at it sometime?!

[nicotinized]

Look? Maybe. Fiddle around? Not unless you're extremely fucking sure of what you're doing. [He can't exactly get a replacement around here if you break it]

[adjustable]

I wouldn't break it or anythin'. I'm the best mechanic around, after all!

[nicotinized]

Yeah, and you didn't know what the hell I was talking about.

[adjustable]

That was just surprise! It ain't every day you meet someone with a cyberarm, y'know?!

[nicotinized]

Didn't sound like surprise to me.

[OOC: I sent you and Matt an e-mail so we can figure out how much got done :3]

[adjustable]

Of course it was surprise! You're doubtin' me?!

[nicotinized]

Yeah, and it's my arm, so that makes it my call.

[adjustable]

Fine, fine, jeez, I just wanted to see it, but if you're gonna be like that...

[A slew of mental grumblings...]

I'll have your stuff ready in a few days, I guess. [He sounds awfully grumpy about it now but don't mind him.]

[nicotinized]

I'll take it under consideration. [A sort of dry amusement there, though it shifts to a sense of genuine thanks]

Thanks, though.
