Terrible strategy, but it's what I would probably do, so I can't judge.
Where would you like to begin with this car? Also, would you like some coffee?
*kicks his door open crying*
Can we build a self driving car.
Please.
I need. Distraction.
@dawnlighthours
Building a self-driving car isn't easy. It's not as simple as just slapping parts together, Ms. Aurora. Do you know anyone with programming knowledge? I know the basics of HTML, but that won't make our car know how to move.
First of all, before we start the programming, we need to build the car itself. Definitely include a system for the passengers to override the code if it fails at all or in an emergency. I also suggest trying to build an electric car for this. No reason, but it fits the high-tech theme with it being self-driving.

What do you need distracting from? And why are you crying?
thirteen was young. it is young. although to be fair, i think that was old enough for you to have done something. did you even do anything in the first place? did you just sit there and let it happen, or watch?
what led to the death in the first place?
You think I didn't try?
Not like it's any of your business, but I couldn't have prevented the accident. It was out of my hands. If you want to blame someone, blame the people who fucked up the footings of that building.
I spent months in her hospital room, asshole. I made her an entire arm. I didn't do nothing.
Well, you don't have to do anything at the moment. Please sleep. If you like, I'll stay in the room and work on my plans quietly.
Ms. Aurora? Are you okay in there?

Percy-
Shit- I'm not okay. I'm going to crash out. It's too much. The fucking nightmares and voices screaming in my head are too much.
True. Mutations are cooler. I'm missing a hand, if you're interested.
wait ur an ASS kinda guy? I pegged you as a titty lover
You assumed incorrectly.
The gluteal region offers structural support, kinetic function, and evolutionary advantage.
Also it’s hot 😇
...Ah. Understandable, I suppose. Sit down wherever you like and I'll see if I can find something to talk about.
*soft tapping at his office door*
Doc Percy? I can see the light on under the door, I know you're awake. Do you have a minute? I need someone to talk to for a second-
@dawnlighthours
Yes, okay. Come on in. It's not as though I'm actually busy.
I wish I knew why everyone here wears black turtlenecks... not that I'm complaining.
It's happened before.
Unfortunately, I have to ask.
Did you take one of my shirts? It looks suspiciously like mine, and one's missing, so either you have it or this is Luna pranking me.
( @drpercival )
huuuuuh?
is it yours?..
almost every shirt here are the same boss just loves Gothic huh
i had to customize my clothes with labels, so it wouldn't mix up during laundry day
come to think of I don't remember checking it this time so maybe it's your??
Your boss here. Not dating anyone.
◎ Tell us honestly, do you have any romantic interest in Dr. Percival?
...... 🙊
.......
........
maybe?
....
yes?
"escapes before he says something embarrassing"
( Ex: "You look like you bite people." or "You look like you get mad when someone doesn't say "bless you" when you sneeze." )
Who would you say you were closest with in the colony
I don't know if I could say I'm especially close with anyone, to be honest. Maybe @dawnlighthours.
...I don't know. I just don't want to see you regretting it, and trying to deal with that.
I was told to check on you. What happened?

*She looks at him, new hair cut and dye job, red eyes from crying, actively putting on lipstick like she's going out somewhere*
...was it Wren? Did Wren send you? Look, I'm fine-
Don't worry, I spent about two thousand years planning a mech suit. Dreaming about inventions is quite normal and possibly the best way to come up with new ideas.
This is brilliant. What materials did you have in mind? The obvious choice would be plastic, but depending on the size and structure of models, it may be too flimsy. We could use a metal of some type — that would be both sturdy and rather straightforward to melt down.
Plastics melt at much lower temperatures than metals, obviously, so that may prove to be an issue. It's something to think about. Of course, the materials could be interchangeable.
