[Rei's expression is calm.]

Does anyone here have any experience in building machines?

[Relationship problems? Rei doesn't have those. So don't ask.]

Comments

[flameandpassion]

[Oh new person.]

Ones that can be remote controlled. And can record.

[agoodfellow.livejournal.com]

Hmm. May I ask for what purpose?

[He's relatively new here, but very straightforward and businesslike.]

[flameandpassion]

You could.

[Rei is in a bad mood and, therefore, is sort of a brat. Sorry, Owen.]

[agoodfellow.livejournal.com]

[Owen has dealt with many brats of many kinds in his time... If he's even slightly bothered by the response, he doesn't show it.]

For what purpose do you require this recording machine?

[flameandpassion]

[Well, he asked, so Rei answers.]

To take a tour of the Inner City without sending in anyone.

[agoodfellow.livejournal.com]

Ah. I can support such an endeavor. How quickly do you need it?

[flameandpassion]

... wait, you can build one?

[agoodfellow.livejournal.com]

I'm afraid the materials may be a little harder to come by, here, but yes.

[flameandpassion]

... what's your name?

[agoodfellow.livejournal.com]

Owen Burnett. I am not an inventor, by any means, but through my employer I have experience in simple robotics and surveillance equipment.

[flameandpassion]

... Hino Rei.

[She's interested, now.]

If I found some old PCDs for you, could you build remote controlled recording robots?

[agoodfellow.livejournal.com]

Such materials would be very useful, yes. I believe that would make it easier.

Is this a paying arrangement?

[flameandpassion]

[The question breaks her 'srsfais'.]

I was thinking volunteering was good enough.

[agoodfellow.livejournal.com]

Hm. I would ask for equal access to all information gathered by this machine.

[Not that he won't make sure he gets that, whether she agrees or not, but it's easier to not be sneaky about it.]

[flameandpassion]

Everyone in the city would be able to see, if it worked.

[Open access to information was something they had agreed upon.]

[agoodfellow.livejournal.com]

I see. I would appreciate any donation of parts you can round up.

[flameandpassion]

I'll try to dig up any old PCDs I can find.

[agoodfellow.livejournal.com]

Thank you. I'm currently residing in the house on the rock, or if that's not convenient, I can meet you somewhere else to collect the materials.

[flameandpassion]

I can meet you there. I know where that is.

-- thanks, for helping, I appreciate it.

[She'll have to ping Hitsugaya to tell him she found someone. Also, meeting a stranger alone in Adstringendum is just stupid, so the senshi will have to be alerted, too.]

[agoodfellow.livejournal.com]

You're welcome. It's an intriguing project.

[Owen's not dangerous. Usually. Not directly. Plus he'd really like to know a lot more about how this place works and what's out there, too.]

[flameandpassion]

[Better safe than sorry, bro.]

It'll help a lot of people if we figure out the balance of power in this city, so I appreciate it..

[agoodfellow.livejournal.com]

Agreed.
