[Accidental Video] [Backdated to the 22nd]

[So...that date didn't go as planned, and it's just sinking in now that it was even a date at all. The fact that he'd worked hard to get up the courage to ask, let alone show up...that was enough for his A.I. to handle. But this planet...much like back home, found a way to make that a false hope. Something he'd never really get. It's a bit of a downer, really.

Enough to make him pout at the junkpile. Why the junkpile? So he could toss things around in his power shovel form if he needed to release his anger externally. This way...no one got hurt. As for right now, though, he's curled up, sitting among a bunch of odds and ends, starting into the distance.]

...

[It'd hurt less if he hadn't arrived her moments after Lua.]

Hate this place.

Precisely. [She nods, because yes, she knows exactly what he's talking about and has used the method a few times herself.]

Well... [Tapping her cheek, Elita smiles thoughtfully.] If you want to straight-up spar we can do that, hand-to-hand or with some other weapons, or... I could teach you some martial arts.

[He can't actually use Circuit-Su to its fullest effect, lacking a spark, but that doesn't mean he can't use it at all if he'd want to go with it.]

[Now you're speaking his language, Elita. Stop that, he's really liking it.]

Didn't peg you as a bot to know martial arts! I know some kung-fu, actually. I'm pretty good at it.

[Well don't you sound confident.]

A spar? I'm game for that.

[But she likes this language!]

It's my favoured method of fighting, actually. [With a chuckle, she tilts her helm.] Perhaps we can teach each other, then? I'd certainly be interested in learning something new.

[Then the smile sharpens a bit. There's a reason she's confident~]

So start with a spar, and move on to lessons? Sounds like an idea to me.

Teaching each other martial arts...sounds like my kind of activity!

[There's a double fist pump, now energized from the very thought of it.]

Just name a place and I'll be there--oh. I don't think I got your name...

[Elita has to hold a hand up to hide most of her grin because that enthusiasm is too much for her not not to smile. It's cute, in a sort of young way.]

I'm Elita One, and depending on where you are in the Junkpile, if you're reasonably close to Solus Prime's temple, there's some good, flat ground around here... otherwise we can meet elsewhere, closer to wherever you are.

[Then she tilts her helm, lowering her hand to smile a little.]

And your name is?

I know Solus's area like the back of my hand. I ...think I know what place you're talkin' about.

We'll meet there, yeah?

[But when asked his name, he flushes (Not really, cause he's a robot, but you get the picture) slightly, now bashful.]

O-Oh yeah! I'm Power Joe.

Oh, yes... We share a glyph, then.

[Now that he's said it, she's pretty sure she's at least seen him... around. And Power Joe's reaction would have her smiling again, amused, but she contains it to a tilt of her helm.]

Nice to meet you - or, talk to you, rather, but I'll see you there, yes. It was a while ago since I got to learn something new.

[And she's honestly delighted by the idea of learning more martial arts, no matter where it comes from.]

No way, you're Solus too? Wonder how we never ran into each other before.

[It was a comforting smile in return. After all, how could he do anything less with a lady like this being so warm and comforting?]

It'll actually be my second thing I learned without it getting built into me. I'm pretty pumped!

See you there!

Well, the temples are large, and there aren't many of us in total... and even less spread out among the temples. [She shrugs.] Unlucky coincidence I think.

... Usually learned things by them being downloanded? [It's the only thing she can think of which, well, does happen, but training would be necessary even with that... But either way, there is a difference between pure manual learning and partly downloading something. Still makes her wonder how old he is.]

Yeah, that's pretty much it. Humans programmed me with a heart, and I picked up kung fu from their information.

It's funny how humans have to learn things, but we can just be fed the information, isn't it?

[Elita tilts her helm and puts that information aside for later - considering that Power Joe had been upset earlier, she doesn't think asking more about that has a place here and now.]

Our way is quicker and more practical [Nodding, Elita narrows her optics as she walks, glancing down at the screen every now and then.] but while theoretical knowledge is a thing we can gain quickly and easily, sometimes it needs to be coupled with practical such, and in that...

We're very similar to humans.
