the robolution is now ~ [video]

[droidrights]

[ Is there some scuffle? The camera sends jarred pictures from the cavern at the bay, anyway, and then a clang of metal hitting metal. A moment later, a robotic foot comes into view. Looks like someone has just kicked the pod they woke up in.

A moment later, a robot comes into focus. A grumbling robot, who is plucking the silk and soft padding from her frame on which she had been pillowed when she woke up - and which had promptly gotten stuck in all these exposed, moving parts that make her frame. ]

If this is how you repair droids, I want a chat with your engineers!

[ Her head dome swivels and tilts forward, focusing on the small lens of the camera. ]

Are you here, Lando? This is exactly the kind of trouble you would get us into.

I'm L3-37, I'm a navigator. A starship pilot. You can call me Elthree.

[hotheadwarmheart]

Well, nice to meet you, Elthree. Don't know if there are too many starships around here, but Nova City might be your best bet on that front. Though if you were looking for a change of pace, there's plenty of other lines of work to get into around here.

[droidrights]

From what I've heard it sounds like I'll have to look for a change of pace, no choice about it. Maybe I'll get lucky, but I'm not counting on it. That's not so bad, I don't mind trying new things.

[ She pauses for a moment. ]

But it will suck. I'm the best navigator there is.

[hotheadwarmheart]

[Lea chuckles.]

Well, I just hope it sucks as little as possible then. I mean in general, getting kidnapped and plunked somewhere you can't leave isn't exactly a ton of fun, but if you have to be stuck somewhere, there's way worse places than here.

[droidrights]

That's true. I have been stuck in worse places already.

[ She pauses for a moment. ]

And nothing's trying to digest me.

...you are sure that we aren't inside something's stomach, right?

[hotheadwarmheart]

Pretty sure; I've got a friend who's been here for years and she doesn't look the least bit digested.

[droidrights]

If you're sure... That's better than it could be then. I'm pretty sure there's nothing worse than being slowly eaten alive.

Maybe I can get used to this place still.

[hotheadwarmheart]

If there is, I'd rather not find out.

But yeah. It's... surprisingly easy to get used to.

[Which strikes him as slightly worrying in and of itself, but he's not quite sure what to do about it.]

[droidrights]

It is. But I'm not very picky. As long as nobody is trying to kill me or arrest me or capture and sell me off I'm happy enough... I'm just going to get bored here before long, if I don't find anything exciting to do.

Do you know what's exciting around here?

[hotheadwarmheart]

Depends on your definition of 'exciting'. What sort of fun are you looking for?
