Dire Circumstances (Day 1 LM, Mech Hangar)

[Theodore Beker]

"Slag, slag, feed system component, fan that can probably be reused," he muttered to himself as he sorted bits into boxes. He looked up at her as she came in, "Coffee ran out, got work to do. You optimized your mech yet?"

[Andrea DeTroyes]

Andrea looked back at the two others in the bay, her mech was running through its diagnostics again...so she had time and a balcony seat to the show below.

"Slag, slag, feed system component, fan that can probably be reused," he muttered to himself as he sorted bits into boxes. He looked up at her as she came in, "Coffee ran out, got work to do. You optimized your mech yet?"

"Hey..." Her fire died down as Theodore simply ignored it. She huffed once then nods. "Yea. No issues. Look, she's not incapable. No museum." She stepped forward and offered her hand out toward his mug. "Got it?"

[Theodore Beker]

He hefted a long metal cylinder and gave it a few knocks. "Didn't say it was incapable. I *am* saying that finding parts for that thing is either going to turn it into more of a frankenmech than it is now or require time at a machine shop," he handed her the mug, "So don't go charging at people recklessly with the thing. I can fix Missy's Commando if it gets cored out but yours is another story."

He returned his attention to the gun barrel. "I think this AC might be salvageable... Feed system looked intact this part of the barrel isn't too bad even. Now if I could find the action I'd feel better..."

[Felicity]

Theodore's comments earned a wince and a glance back over her shoulder to Andrea. I hope not. She looked back to him and nodded with a serious expression. "I won't be reckless."

She accepts the mug. "I'll get you a top up. Black, si?"

Felicity began to move away. If given the chance she'd lift her right arm and wave it back and forth to get Andrea's attention.

"Want some coffee?" She shouts out.

[Andrea DeTroyes]

Andrea waves back, "Yes please." Seems the fireworks were over. She probably had a few words about her mech being cored, especially if she was in it when the coring happened, but she hadn't heard the tech's comment.

[Felicity]

Felicity gives a big thumbs up, waving it in the air, as she shifts direction toward the exit of the hanger. On her way she asks a few others if they also wanted coffee. The overwhelming answer was yes.

/ Temporary exit to bring back coffee

[Theodore Beker]

The tech worked away sorting bits and pieces of AC2s, structural components, myomer fiber, and electronics into appropriate containers. He continued to weigh whether or not the best course of action was to cannibalize it or try and put Humpty Dumpty back together again.

[Felicity]

It was a good while before Felicity returned. She had to bring back a half dozen mugs of coffee all the way from the briefing room on the top deck.

"Get 'em while they're still hot. Con rapidez!" She made a clamor as she returned. It quickly got the various technical staff who had wanted coffee to come and collect, as well as a couple complaints from others who hadn't realized someone was doing a coffee run.

[Theodore Beker]

Theo walked over to collect his mug. "Thank you kindly. I don't suppose you'd mind giving me a hand moving and securing an AC barrel? It is just a class 2 so it isn't huge."
