fifth test ; video ; bring the noise

 [ She's graced the world with audio and text before, but video is much rarer from the gynoid. She laughs with a sincere air of insanity and the quiet ring of actual joy. Ohhh, she hadn't felt this on edge since before...well. Since before Mr. Johnson died.

What a shame. ]

Well! It seems as such my newest prototype is a success. I have a special thanks list, but I'm not sure all would appreciate hearing it this morning. I will say a special thank you to a extra set of hands, however.

[ The screen is witness to extending, sharp microfilament fingers. Shiny. ]

I do have a generous offer, concerning those with spare parts. I want them. All of them. Functional or non functional, I'll take them all. Unfortunately, I've been rendered mostly immobile. In person drop off is preferred. Now that you've seen the remarkable upgrades I can make from next to nothing, what's in it for you is whatever I can make from those parts. There are some folk that can attest to my lawfulness.

I look forward to seeing you all in shop.

[ Does she mean well? Hell no! She means to attack every. single. person. that sets foot in her door. So by all means, but the moment you step into the lab, she'll unleash hell in the form of extra sharp, long spider fingers. Go on, but risk becoming part of her collection. ]

[Well this just screams trap ... which means he's probably going over their given he seems to have some kind of death wish.]

Don't suppose you'd care to say what it is these spare parts are going towards?

[nobirds]

I did. Whatever I can design from them.

[ You. You are interesting. ]

After all, usability is determined by the quality and what's included.

Why, interested?

[calibrates_big_guns]

Fair enough.

[He admits with a shrug. He still doesn't buy it, at all, but if every instinct he has screaming that she's probably going to be killing the people who show up, it probably bears investigating.]

Potentially. The other big thing would be some mods for my guns. Most of my tools are at home, but I might have some spare parts worth something.

[At least this way, it doesn't seem suspicious if he's carrying an assault rifle to make sure he can get the job done if it goes south. And on the off chance he's wrong, he gets some new mods. It's a win-win. ... Provided he survives this.]

[ She narrows her eyes. Aw naw. She can smell that fish from a galaxy away. ]

Perhaps you might.

But is it anything worth bringing, that's the question. What kinds of upgrades are you looking for?

[calibrates_big_guns]

[Which, to be fair, is probably to be expected. Under cover ops and subtlety in general isn't exactly his strong suit.]

Armor piercing mods, maybe some upgraded optics...
