[percept]

[ The video flicks on to Perceptor, the junk pile behind him, looking... harried, to say the least. ]

I require a medic immediately, ideally one who is familiar with human anatomy. There has been an accident in the vicinity of the junk pile--

[Hal is in the background of the feed, moving to the foreground as quickly as someone who is losing ridiculous amounts of blood can, and managing to look both in pain and exasperated. While he does seem mostly intact, the key word is mostly. He has two legs, his head, his torso, and his mechanical arm, but is decidedly lacking in the flesh-and-blood arm area. Instead, all he really has for a left arm is a bloody stump that starts at the shoulder joint.]

I feel that this may not have happened if you had bothered to survey the area before deciding to practice your shooting skills.

I did survey the area before beginning. I always do.

[ Perceptor sounds, besides slightly freaked out, a little offended. ]

And yet here I am, missing an arm, and here you are not.

[There is only one person allowed to be offended in this feed, buddy, and it ain't you.

Perceptor turns to Hal, frowning.]

I have already apologized profusely. One would have to ask why you were present inside a refrigeration unit in the first place, but I feel that time is currently of the essence. We will need to terminate the bleeding before you exsanguinate. You are currently hemorrhaging at a rather prodigious rate.

I was gathering supplies for a project of sorts. Food preservation.

[Hal waves it off with his robotic, and thankfully intact, hand. The tip of his index finger splits and the plates slide down to reveal a small blowtorch-like tool.]

It doesn't matter at the moment, and we lack the facilities at the moment, so I suppose cauterization will have to suffice.

I suppose it will. Do you require any assistan--

[It's at this point that Hal's Sentinel appears from behind a mound of junk, laser charging, and--

Takes a shot at Perceptor. ]

What are you doing?! I cannot take you anywhere can I?

I already had to talk with Perceptor about him being this trigger happy around people. Korra and me are in our way to get there she says she can fix you with her bending try not to move much.

And you said Prism's pets were harmless when he was not around They need to get their weapons disabled.

Incorrect. I implied they were harmless due to my use of them as construction drones rather than defense and capture platforms. I fail to see the need to disable their weapons when there are others who do not need to follow the same protocol.

I can tell that they act as some sort of security system or as guard for you but you told me that they are very simple minded individuals THE other armed mechs here usually can tell when is appropriate to fire against a dangerous target and when the situation in front of them it's due to a misunderstanding or accident.

[Usually.]

That said, are you in pain? You seem quite calm for someone who just got shot.

Re: Text;

Usually.

And I am always rather calm. This is rather excruciating, but I see no need to scream and weep.

If ^onlywe all could get along better.

I admire your resistance sir We will be there in no time.

[heuristical]

Perhaps when that is a reality, I will consider your suggestion.

[That is a no, then.]

I assume Korra's bending has some sort of healing properties that she can adequately explain.

[raceme]

Fair enough.

[This is they we are working on the police force :C]

She said she can bend your blood to make the flood stop.
