[ This is day four of her streak of bad luck and it's safe to say that L3-37 is thoroughly done with her bad luck. The droid is looking quite battered as she appears on the video screen, sitting in a small apartment which currently sports an overturned couch and a paint-splattered robot lady who is giving off sparks. ]

Is it normal in this place that you get buckets of dirty water and paint poured on you?

And is it normal that your charging dock explodes on you? And the tools you just bought break off?

[ She crosses her arms over her chest. ]

I take back everything nice I said about this place. It's worse than a rancor's pit.

...You look like you had a fight with a garbage disposal.

[This cheeky comment is brought to you by Augustine. The resident troublemaking dhampir with a sarcastic side.]

Tough day? None of which you're describing is normal unless you've offended Lady Luck.

Re: video

[droidrights]

[ Have as much of an unimpressed look as something without eyes can give you. ]

Thanks. You know the nicest things to say to a lady.

Re: video

[immortalrose]

A lady? [He blinks his eyes.] Ah, I suppose I should be more pleasant.

You look like hell. Better?

[He's being cheeky. Forgive him.]

Re: video

[droidrights]

You should!

[ She puts the phone down and places her hands on her hips. ]

And that's not much better, but you show promise. I can whip you into shape.

Re: video

[immortalrose]

Whip me into shape? [Augustine tries his best not to grin at that. He's too amused with this droid.] Is that a promise or a threat?

If either, I must say you're quite forward.

Re: video

[droidrights]

That depends completely on how much you annoy me!

[devilishkaoru]

Are you being pranked by someone?

[Because if he was honest, he felt like those would be the type of things one would do to a robot, but he honestly wasn't sure.]

Sucks to be you if that is the case.

Re: video;

[droidrights]

I... don't know? I don't know who would be pranking me, or why.

[ She thinks for a moment. ]

Rose, maybe. But she's been busy with her Doctor.

[devilishkaoru]

Some people like to pull pranks because it's funny. There is sometimes no reason behind it.

So really it could be anyone if they were bored. Sucks someone targeted you though.

Re: video;

[droidrights]

It sucks for them because I'm going to get back at them once I track them down!

[devilishkaoru]

Then remind me never to prank you.

Re: video;

[droidrights]

Don't worry, I wouldn't be too hard on you... maybe.

[k2so]

Sounds like you had a really bad day. Maybe the charging dock was defective.

I could come help repairs you if you want.

Re: [Video]

[droidrights]

Maybe. I had just bought it, I want my money back. Do you think I need to take my blaster to get my money back?

Re: [Video]

[k2so]

No, unless your blaster is also damaged.

Have you considered trying to fix the issue without threatening the vendor? Like...for a change?

Re: [Video]

[droidrights]

I thought about it.

[Pauses.]

But that's boring.

[k2so]

Yeah but seeing the look of terror when you lift someone up by their shirt with a single hand is worth it.

Besides it's an intimidation tactic that doesn't get you arrested.

[ Kay giving the best, and most legal, advice. ]

[droidrights]

Oh. Well. That would be alright then. I guess I could start with that and if it doesn't work I can get my blaster.

[ Look at her being ever so reasonable and peaceful. ]

[youfool]

Probably not; normal or unremarkable things tend to go without comment.

Where were those nice things you said?

[He can't recall anything complimentary on the network...]

Re: Video

[droidrights]

I told my friends this place isn't bad.

[ She pokes her recharge port, still giving off sparks, with a finger dripping green paint. ]

I was wrong.

Re: Video

[youfool]

[FALSE! Robots are incapable of friendship.]

Ah, haven't broken any mirrors lately, eh? What mechanics do you usually see?

Re: Video

[droidrights]

[ Rude! Say that to her face! ]

Mirrors? I... might have broken one. But I'm not confessing to anything and I'm not paying either.

Re: Video

[youfool]

Oh dear. Was it, ah, saying unkind and incredibly personal things?

video

[protectshope]

No, none of that is normal at all... Oh gosh, are you okay? Those sound like really dangerous things to have happened. Do you need a hand?

Re: video

[droidrights]

A hand? My hand's fine, it's my recharge port that got damaged.

[ She's just trolling you, girl. Probably. ]
