[Guess who's looking better?

If you guessed one Titanium robot, you guessed right. But he's been feeling rather antsy, and hunting the Junkpile as often as he could but still coming up dry. Time to put a call out.]

So... anyone in this place know where there's a guitar? Acoustic'd be preferable, but in this situation I can't really be picky can I? If it's broken, or if you only found parts of one that's okay too... it's more than I've got, and it's not like I can't fix it myself if I needed to.

Any point in the right direction's appreciated.

You could have said goodbye when you left the clinic. [Tshl this is what you get for caring about people.] You owe me a song.


You tried looking in the Junkpile, right? If there's none there you will have to build your own.

[eyestothesky]

Sorry about that... you looked sort of busy, didn't want to distract you.

Been picking through there, thinking building one's going to be the option I'm stuck with...

[deadlydoctor]

[Knockout waves a hand, dismissing the issue.] Happens all the time actually. I'm used to it.

Not many human sized tools in the home planet of giant autonomous robotic organisms, you see. Thinking on starting a new band?

[eyestothesky]

Nothin' so fancy. Maybe in the future, but I just want to be able to play. It's an odd thing not having Guitar around when I need to work a line out. [Yes his guitar is named Guitar. Clearly he's inherited his creator's fantastic naming skills.]

[deadlydoctor]

[Knock Out's quick t point that out. He can't help it.] You named your guitar....'Guitar'. The king of originality, aren't you Spine?

[raceme]

We might have one at the bar, it was from Soudnwave.

But it's twice your size I'm afraid.

[eyestothesky]

While I could pick it up, I don't think that'd lend well to playing. [A faint amused chuckle at that, tone wry.]

[raceme]

Not really, no. Maybe we can use it as a model and design a smaller one for you? I'm not exactly _{and illiterate when it} comes to music, I wouldn't know how to make it, but those who are part of Solus's temple might be able to help you.

[eyestothesky]

I've made em myself a few times, I'd probably be able to do it again if I could get the right supplies. But another pair of hands wouldn't hurt any.

[neverputincharge]

Uh...what's it made out of? If it's got any metal, I might able to help find one in the junk pile

....or parts for one. [Nulkhead, Miko had one and you don't know what they're made of?]

[eyestothesky]

Mostly wood. The strings and some of the hardware are metal though if that helps?

[neverputincharge]

Yeah, might able to help. A...friend played guitar all the time. Uh...electric guitar cause she was into rock music. So at least kinda know what one looks like.

[eyestothesky]

They've got the same basic shape, so yeah it won't be too difficult to figure from there.

I'd definitely appreciate a hand looking.

[notyourblueangel]

. . . a what?

[Sorry...he's learned a decent amount about Earth culture and such. Music's not really one of his better subjects, though.]

[Video]

[eyestothesky]

A guitar. It's an instrument made out of wood, you play it by strumming the strings with your fingertips, or a pick designed for the task.

[Video]

[notyourblueangel]

Huh. Musical thing, then. Are you a musician?

[Video]

[eyestothesky]

Sure am! My brothers and I play in a band back home.

[thankyou4myheart]

Spine! Good to see you're feeling better.

You know, I think I saw some a while back in the north part of the Junkpile. I'm afraid I can't remember the exact location, as it wasn't information I thought I'd ever need, but I'd be more than happy to go look for them again.

[Video]

[eyestothesky]

If you remember where they are even that'd be definitely appreciated. At least now I know what general part of the pile I should be picking through!

[Video]

[thankyou4myheart]

I tell you what – how about I come pick you up and then we can go look together?

[Video]

[eyestothesky]

Now that sounds like a fine idea.

[originaldragoon]

Why do you want a guitar? [She's a bit curious.]

[eyestothesky]

Well, I'm a musician ma'am. It's a bit odd not to have a guitar on me. Just because I'm on an alternate planet, in another dimension or reality doesn't mean I want my skills getting rusty.

[The Spine is king of stupidly bad puns. He thinks they're great though.]

[originaldragoon]

I cannot blame you for that. [She pretty much practices her swordsmanship everyday after all.]

Unless someone left one at the Hub, the junk pile is probably the best place to look for a guitar.

[eyestothesky]

Haven't seen one so far... best option's to keep hunting around the pile then. Hopefully something will turn up.
