You'd think a lot of things on this stupid ship would've been tested properly.
Something else... like what? [ he hasn't looked that closely... ichika is the nosy one with stuff like that. ] And... be careful if you do. It's not going to help anyone if more people start getting hurt.
They did say we might be dragged into investigating if they can't find anything, though. Weird as that is.
[ do your own jobs!!!! ]

Stupid of them, if that's the case.
[ he'll just fucking say it ]
Honestly, it might be. A ship with this many malfunctions... They'd get sued in a heartbeat back home. And they have so much money that they've got no excuse for it.

I'll be fine. [ first and foremost. ] But...I have some thoughts, but nothing concrete. We won't really know without seeing more of what happened.
I kinda doubt they'll find anything though if they're already warning us. So...we'll just have to prepare for that, too.
[ and we can handwave the rest of this if you want ray so we can start something for w1! ]

[ throws them in the food court where kazuki is grabbing a snack and watching the robots with fascination ]
Looks like Roboji might be able to make some friends.
[ do. do robots make friends. he doesn't know. ]

[ roboji is currently jobshadowing a cat robot, and shoma's here probably drinking a soda and observing with a bit of amusement. ]
Looks that way. I've never had a chance to introduce it to other machines, so this is new. But there's pretty cool, right?
[ the. listen. he's pretty even-toned a lot of the time but this is something that he can't help but be kind of excited about because it means something new and something for ideas and also catbots are adorable. ]

Supposedly the stipend we're getting is huge. Multiply that by over thirty of us, and thinking about how that's barely a dent for them? Yeah. They have no excuse. [ but he just. sighs again. ]
...at least it's over for now. So that's something.

[ lol. he watches roboji with a grin. ]
It's probably hard to find ones to introduce him to, right? I've seen robots like these once or twice, but they're still not that common. It's definitely cool, though.
Wonder if there are more of these guys around other parts of the ship...?

For now.
The problem is whether it'll happen again or not. Even Brofiise said to be cautious of it, and it sounds like he doesn't get it, either.

Yeah. Plus I never really took him out at home. He usually stayed in my closet unless I needed him for something or I was working on him. [ but he nods along. ]
If these are here, there's probably even more advanced machines in other parts of the ship that we don't have access to yet. That's both promising and kind of annoying.
[ he would like to go now? let him see!!! ]

He must be enjoying the chance to stretch his legs, then. [ ... ] Metaphorically speaking.
Hmmm. And the crew probably can't just grab one for you and bring it back, huh. Maybe we should revisit that grate idea.

...I don't think this is the last of it. I don't know what's going to be next, but this feels like too much to be a one-time thing.
I hope you're wrong about that.
[ but the vibes say that he doesn't think shoma is. things usually just get worse. ]
I wish there was something we could do about it, but without knowing what's really causing it...

Seems that way. [ hah. but oh...more curious discussion instead. ] I'm still completely for the grate idea even if they could grab one and bring it back. I like being able to see things for myself. Might even be easier now that we landed.
Yeah. That's...about where I am, too. I'm not sure where to start looking, but I'm hoping to maybe find some sort of direction after I talk to Scien.
Good, he deserves to have some fun.
[ you know how people people are like roombas have feelings? yeah ]
Maybe... You want to give it a shot? I know there are ladders around, but we'd still need, like, a crowbar or something to make it move.

...I hope you do. I couldn't get much out of him, but he doesn't particularly like me, either, so.
[ okay well shoma is pathetic a little so this actually endears kazuki to him a little. ]
Yeah. If it's a grate I can even see if Roboji can lift it enough to pry it open. I haven't repaired his hands yet, but it should be okay.

Let's just say that Scien and I have a bit of an understanding. So...I hope so, too.
[ stop he's perfect not pathetic!!! ]
You sure? I don't want to give you more work just because we're being nosy.

It's not really giving me more work if I'm curious too, is it? [ explore!!! ] Besides, if it doesn't work it's only five minutes of my time wasted, but if it does it's more to look at than before.
[ shrugs. ]
Guess not. Let's just try not to break him more in the process.
How strong is he, anyway?

Currently? He can lift over a hundred pounds, but not quite 150. I wanted to test those limits first before upgrading his shocks and weightbearing joints to go heavier. So, I figure that applies in reverse, too, of being able to apply the same strength into pushing and pulling.
Don't you have to build it a little differently since they're different types of movements?
[ he doesn't know robots ]
...Well, I doubt the grate's that heavy, anyway.

I built Roboji in, like, two or three days. Upgrading him would take even less time since the mainframe's already done. Most of the time would be about getting parts, but with the way I designed him his movements allow a lot more flexibility and shifting. Sort of like how the human body's muscles accommodate for certain movements.
But yeah, the grate's probably just stuck more than anything.

That fast? You sure you're not some kind of genius?
[ damn, kid, he's more impressed every time they talk. ]
The crew could probably help get what you need, anyway... But I still don't want to be the reason you've got more work, you know?
Honestly, though, I'm surprised they haven't just fixed it already. [ ... ] Then again, so much is screwed up around here, what's the point in focusing on a grate?
