...it sucks to be broken....
...again...
...
...anyone wanna make me some hot chocolate...?
...s'il vous plait..???
If you want I can try fixing you.
...eh..
...you'd fail no doubt..
Eh I've fixed vending machines before, this probably isn't that different.
....
You think this- *he holds up his arm, gesturing to the robotic part of it* -is in any way related to the tech OF A VENDING MACHINE ?
Eh, looks more like a vacuum part to me. Before I start have you clicked on any suspicious links before your cybernetics broke?
*He just stares at you with the most aggravated expression. *
...a vacuum...?
A LINK!? DO YOU THINK IM SOME SORT OF COMPUTER?
Excuse me for trying to have some humor. But in all seriousness I perform self-repairs all the time, out of everyone who doesn't have an engineering degree on this shit I'm the most trustworthy with repairs.
I just need to cover all the bases, I'm not sure if you had one of those fancy higher-end prosthetics. Do you know what the model of your prosthetics is?
...Je ne sais pas, as they were made specifically to suite me by a company no one knows anything about...
I was made before UES became the only company, I'll probably know what the company is if you name it. Do you mind if I check to see if there's a logo anywhere?
..do whatever you want...
*they go silent, inspecting the cybernetics. They suddenly stop, looking at a weathered logo* I think I remember that logo, it's been a while since I've worked with anything they've made but I'll try my best. I'll see if there's any data on their products in my memory.
...I'm surprised..
Why? It was a fairly well-known company, at least that's what my data says. Do you remember when you got those prosthetics? It'll narrow down the search.
..uh.. dix ou huit ans..?
Alright, how did you get this prosthetics anyways? If you don't mind me asking.
...they were forced.. made to make me even less of a person..
... I see, I'm sorry that happened to you. If it makes you feel any better, I don't see you as any less of a person than the others.
...whatever.. I can't change the past..
True true... I think I've found the base model for your prosthetics, it isn't exact but it looks close enough.
..I'm surprised..
Really? I thought you would've raised your expectations by now. Mind if I check the wiring? Your vocal changes could be a result of one of the wires being damaged.
...do whatever you want..
Alright, this shouldn't take long. *They summon a small screwdriver, at least small compared to their hand, and start unscrewing the outer casing of the prosthetics*
*Merc just stands there pretty awkward and REALLY tired. *
*they remove the outer casing and begin looking at the wires.* By the way, how long have you been sleeping recently? Your eyebags are visible.
..uh... I don't know... sleep isn't my thing..? *he says with sort of awkward chuckle. *
I'm not a MED-E, but that can't be healthy. *They suddenly stop, and pick out a wire that looks bent out of shape.* Here it is, I'll go get a spare. *A toolbox appears beside them, inside are a few rolls of wires and at least 5 spare hats.*
....why must one have so many hats..?
There's nothing stopping my hats from slipping off, I'm not even sure how it didn't fall off while I was checking for damaged wires just now. *They pull out a roll of wires and a wire cutter from the toolbox.*
..ah...
This shouldn't hurt, a least I don't think it will. *They cut out the pent wire before replacing it with a piece of new wire*
*He slightly jerks his arm away. *
Sorry, the manual didn't say anything about turning off the pain receptors so I assumed there weren't any.
...It's.. fine... that shouldn't have hurt...
...strange...
..could I be getting weaker...?
I'm not sure, you might want to see MED-E about that. But I'm sure you're not getting weaker, your body probably just flinched because I'm practically doing open surgery on you. *They summon a repair drone and give it a small piece of the new wire, it instantly goes to the missing section of the wire and repairs it*
...ah..
...hey, I think my voice is back..
Merci?
No problem, tell me if there're any more issues in the future.
