Hey, everyone. This is the newest member of the police force speaking here. I had basic training back home, so I got through the training here really fast. And they're even letting me do plainclothes duty. But see for yourself:

[At this point, Asem turns the camera feed to his shiny new badge.]

So, if you need help, let me know, all right? I'm always happy to help.

But that's not all. Can I speak to anyone from a world more technologically advanced than this one? I don't mean by like twenty years or so, either -- I'm talking about civilizations with space colonies and advanced combat machines. I have a few things I'm willing to pay to have built here, so if anyone out there can make them, I'd really appreciate it.

What's up?

[ Hee. ] I have something you can help me with, offi~cer.

[ Trolling humans over this thing is her new hobby. For one, they can't jam forks into her head through video. ]

[second_destiny]

Wait, you're an engineer?

[second_destiny]

You do? What's the problem?

[He can't recognize a flirty tone to save his life.]

[maxwells_silver_scythe]

I dabble. I doubt I could build a mobile suit from scratch, but if I have something to start with I can get by.

[abmoemination]

[ Oh, a little dejectedly she'll continue. ]

I'd like for all forks to be banned from the city limits.

[second_destiny]

If I handed you the data for a design of some parts for a mobile suit -- like a new set of wing binders -- could you build them?

[second_destiny]

...Huh?

[He didn't hear that right. He couldn't have heard that right.]

[abmoemination]

City-wide ban of forks. That is what I'd like.

[ Crankily adding on: ] Unless that task is too big for a mere officer such as yourself.

[maxwells_silver_scythe]

Assuming your world's mobile suits work more or less like mine, that shouldn't be too hard. I can take a look at least.

[second_destiny]

Why would you even want something like that? There'd be no way for people to eat certain foods.

[second_destiny]

All right. The second project's going to be bigger, though. It's a machine that can analyze data sent to it and make new parts to fit the situation.

[maxwells_silver_scythe]

Woah, now THAT sounds pretty goddamn complex.

[second_destiny]

It exists back home, though. I even have the plans for it.

[greyerrant]

Far more advanced. And I have a techpriest with me.

[second_destiny]

Sorry, but could you explain to me what a techpriest is?

[maxwells_silver_scythe]

Hmm, alright. If you've got the plans, I might be able to put it together. Getting parts will be tricky in a place this backwards.

[second_destiny]

I bet we could make it work, anyway. Maybe not as good as the original, but good enough.

[maxwells_silver_scythe]

If we can get it working at all, maybe we can get it manufacturing parts for itself. Ambitious, but not impossible.

[ineedthemforanalyzing]

Congratulations, Asem.

[Man, this was way more important than her job...but then, her job was secondary to figuring out what's going on in this city.]

I usually don't work with hardware, but if you need any help with design or programming, I'm sure our worlds are similar.

[second_destiny]

Huh. I didn't think of that.

[second_destiny]

I don't think I'll need it yet. The AGE Builder might need it later, though.

[maxwells_silver_scythe]

That's why I'm the engineer here, not you.

Send me the plans and I'll look 'em over.

[greyerrant]

A technomagus of Mars.

[second_destiny]

Hold on a second. I need to see if I can upload the data to my COMP.
