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 that sure didn't sound creepy AT ALL.]

Nice claws.

If you want spare parts, why you don't look around the junkpile yourself?

[calibrates_big_guns]

[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?

[Hey, guess who's feeling a bit better? Not much, but he's actually sitting up in bed, and the steam isn't billowing out quite so quickly for the moment, so he's going to take what he can get!

Distracting himself by skimming the network.]

Well someone likes to keep busy. [A faint wan sort of smile, his tone not quite as energetic as usual.]

Awful nice of you to help everyone. [If he wasn't so out of it, this would be a giant red warning sign to him, but in his current state the subtext and menace are flying right over his head.]
