[[Video/Action :: Junk Pile]]
[Oblivious to the current outbreak of unusual sicknesses and whatnot, Garrod is...apparently fine since he's poking about the Pile with no difficulties.
He uses a long bar of metal for leverage to shove heavier pieces of scrap aside, seeming right at home when it comes to scavenging. Something seems to catch his eye, and he grins, propping up his tool so he has his hands free as he crouches down.]
Ah-hah!
[He pulls up a can, and then setting it beside him, works out a couple more, slightly dented but still in good shape. The boy sits down cross-legged as he inspects them.]
Woohoo, canned beans! ...do these things expire?
[Setting all but one down, he pulls out a multitool from his beltpouch. ....Garrod, are you really- yes. Yes he is. He opens up the top of the can and then after taking a sniff, swaps out his multitool for a spoon.]

I checked- just a little dented, but none of these cans have any leaks. I don't know about expiration dates though, but then don't some of the stuff that we have in storage get scavenged from here in general?
'sides- [He peers at the contents of the can again.] It smells pretty decent to me.
no subject
I think botulism makes cans puffy? Because of the gas the bugs make? And it's not supposed to smell or anything, that's why it's dangerous.
[She peers at the can itself.. well if it was dented would it have shown being puffy? The reference didn't have any pictures.]
no subject
Didn't look puffy to me! Anything else?
[He pokes a spoon into the can and scoops out a bit.]
Doesn't look mushy or anything either...
no subject
[She shrugs.]
If you don't want to risk it, I'll help look for non-screwy cans. I'm having no luck with sensor parts.
no subject
[Okay, now he's really having second thoughts, given how blunt this girl's being. Making a face, he sets the can down after tapping off his spoon. Eyew.]
If you don't mind it, then sure! Although...can you tell if it's spoiled or not? And what kinda parts? I'll keep an eye out if I can.
no subject
[She scratches her head and nods. That sounds about right. The parts are a little easier-- she has a few in her pack already, just not enough to build more than one sensor despite her being out so long. She shows them around.]
I'm looking for this stuff, or stuff that looks close enough. A lot of things are too broken to use because of how everything just falls indiscriminately here.
no subject
There's a lot of stuff around here, so I'm sure there has to be some parts that might be useful!
[The boy jumps down to a lower outcropping of debris to look around before he pauses to glance back over his shoulder.]
Oh yeah, name's Garrod! Who're you?
no subject
[Cans might be in greater supply today than scanner parts. Oh well. Alliances are important, and she did kind of promise Isaac she'd help watch over the littler humans. No botulism cases today!]
no subject
[He flashes her a grin before he looks around by his feet, toeing at metal scraps.]
So have you found anything interesting around here before?
no subject
And you can find anything out here if you look long enough, I'm told.
no subject
-oh yeah, I'm sure it's possible. This place seems like a gold mine. You just have to make the effort to look!
no subject
If this place is as awesome as everyone says, I ought to be able to cover all the Haven eventually.
no subject
I wouldn't doubt it, although I don't know how long it'd take to find what you need. Wonder why no one's come up with one before?
no subject
[Well, a small favor of the Firstforged leaving, then. She might be able to plant more sensors than otherwise.. if she can find the parts.]
no subject
[He smirks.]
So does that mean you haven't really formally planned this with anyone?
no subject
[And hey it's easier to beg forgiveness than ask permission in any world. Even if she's not planning on picking any locks, having eyes everywhere is a nice thought. Much more reassuring.]
