[Video]

[Ugh, she'd been trying to avoid this thing as much as possible on her own part, other than peeking in and poking through things for her own curiosity. Speaking wasn't exactly a fun pastime of her's and she had other things to normally attend to. But... well, things were starting to get a little too obnoxious for her own liking. And it's something she's been sort of keeping to herself, even if some of the effects are a little hard to play off.

A soft sigh escapes her lips as she flicks the video on, the backdrop seemingly some shady part of Genessia City proper, though off out of the way from the majority of the people milling about.]

Yeah, I know, there's bigger problems going on right now but I've got a curious question for some of you. How many of you are familiar with how more... mechanical or biomechanical beings function? Just for my own knowledge, might be looking into knowing just how much of an outlier I might be when it comes to non-natives of this place. Androids, cyborgs, whatever the hell you want to call them.

[Locked from Krillin]

As a jumping off point from that question, if you do have knowledge on those kinds of things and can refer me to someone that might be able to help if something isn't working properly, I'd appreciate it. My usual point of contact for these things is decidedly not in the city and without access to the damn blueprints, it's a bit of a pain in the ass to explain exactly. Long story short is that my muscles are starting to act up a bit and I know it's not the actual organic part of them causing it, it's the stupid enhanced bullshit that's causing it. It's localized to my right forearm currently, but given that's my dominant arm, it's not a pleasant experience.

[Krillin saw the video come up while he was overseeing a class at the dojo but when he sees who made the post, he excuses himself and makes a response.]

Everything okay, honey?

[brokeyourarm]

[It's probably a good thing she's good at keeping her expressions absolutely neutral when she needs to, the bonuses of her background, she supposes. Her voice is also probably more uncharacteristically monotone, but that's not terribly unusual, either.]

Everything's fine, merely curious. If we're going to be stuck here for who knows long, it's best to know what options are out there, don't you think? Since we both know my body doesn't quite function the same way a human's does.

[kienzankriller]

[Krillin's face remains concerned, indicating that he doesn't exactly buy the "everything is fine" thing, but...]

Alright. It would be a good idea, yeah... Kinda miss Bulma at times like this. Still... if there's something bothering you, I'm here for you honey. You know that.

[brokeyourarm]

[She's far too aware of that fact and she wants to frown, but she's keeping herself from doing so. No show of weakness, that's right. Can't give him actual reason to worry about her.]

Believe me, at this point I'm feeling the same way. I'm not terribly keen on having to explain to someone new about how all of this nonsense works or have to show them. [She actually winces a little bit at her own words, focus flicking up above the camera for some reason or another.] Not a particularly nice subject. [Not touching that last part, Krillin.]

[kienzankriller]

If you want, I can close up shop early and come with you if that'd make you feel better. The class is almost over anyway.

[brokeyourarm]

[She stiffens up a bit at those words, but calms soon after as if nothing happened.]

No, it's fine. This is something I need to do on my own, anyway. All I'm doing is looking for someone at the moment, so it's hardly a big deal.

[kienzankriller]

[He nods a bit.]

Okay. Just keep me updated, okay?

[Have a reassuring grin.] I'd better get back to class.

[brokeyourarm]

[Ugh, he really should not be making her feel bad for keeping this from him. But that's just how things are going at the moment.]

I will. And you ought to, otherwise they won't get anywhere.
