Hey, guys! Just wanted to let ya'll know that the forge in my yard has been ready to go. It ain't much, but it does the trick. Not too bad for a guy who's never even seen one outside of a Renaissance Fair if I do say so myself! Thing is, I've never built anythin' like swords or whatever before. Computers and electronics are more my thing. So's there anyone out there who does? I collected some scrap metal from cars and such around here to use. Be glad we're in the 50s, when cars were actually still made outta metal. We can start meltin' 'em down and stuff, but I dunno what to make the hilts or whatever out of, or... well, anythin' else about aswords. I hate to say it, but I'm a little stumped on where to go from here.


[Action:
Quinn's been in a great mood ever since he got the courage to open up his latest regain. It's one of his favorite guilty pleasures, mostly because through his technomancy, iPads are fun to talk to. He can be found walking around town with it, sitting with it at the diner, or in the high school faculty break room... however, he doesn't even need to touch it to have it do anything. Apps and images zoom by without him needing to move a muscle, thanks to his ability. He looks positively tickled to have this thing back. And he's so absorbed in it, he might not hear you talking to him at first, or he might walk right into you. It's a good thing he's so tall, so you can see him coming...]

With springs, it's just a matter of getting the metal thin enough and shaped. I don't have the physical ability to do it myself, but I can stay with you and [[annoy the everliving daylights out of you]] offer you advice.

I think building is probably a little easier than throwing stuff in a fire and trying to make it into something useful.

Oh, yeah! That reminds me. I got a magic knife back a while ago.

Got any good videos? Like cute puppies or cats doing hilarious things?

Yeah, you're right about that. I dunno if I can do it, but I bet we can find someone who does.

If we can find someone, I can start producing proper clanks.

Well if you're from a place like me, you're not too far off from these! I'm from 2010.

Yeah, and they're makin' 'em smaller 'n' smaller every day. Check it out, I had a coupla photos on here. These are my cousins, Jaris and Eris.

[A picture appears, showing a man and a woman about Quinn's age, who are obviously siblings. The guy is grinning like a maniac and the girl looks exasperated with him.]

Hey, did ya get anything cool back lately?

Wow, they're uh... nice?

Thank you!

Are you interested in a career in science? We have several, recent, openings for scientists.

Hmmm...

[Some things flash by the screen too fast to really see as he goes through the iPad's video and photo inventory. After a moment, this video plays. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bjZqZWbmXK4)

There ya go!

[Kay is easily amused, so she's cracking up at this.]

Oh, oh, do you have the one where there's like five of them riding a Roomba?

Probably! Smelting stuff is a whole lotta work.

Yeah? Sounds cool! What's magic about it?

It stabs really well! But the best part is that it makes floods!

[He laughs at that.] Floods? Holy crap. Sounds pretty awesome.

We gotta try. I wanna see you make one of 'em!

Well, I'd certainly like to, as well. I miss Carry-It, and making a similar clank would be lovely.

Ah, well, kinda of ya to ask 'n' all, but I'm already sorta employed, ya know, doin' stuff for my family. Busy stuff.

I'm gonna have to see if it can make floods inside a monster after I use it sometime.

If you find someone who knows how to make swords I think I know someone who would be thrilled.

Maybe, Hinamimachi is out in the middle of nowhere, so we usually don't get cool stuff for a while.

[STARING

KINDA SORTA TERRIFIED.

Quinn's seen him around the school before, but has avoided him like the plague.]


Oh oh man I'm so sorry dude I shoula been lookin' where I was goin' it was really stupid of me.

Really, what sort of work do you do?

Date: 2011-02-26 02:44 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] techno-mancer.livejournal.com
I figured! I heard so many people on the phone lines askin' about 'em. Now I just gotta find someone who knows. There's gotta be!

[Sigh. He's totally used to this reaction.]

THAT'S QUITE ALRIGHT.
