Looking for a mechanic capable of fixing a prosthetic arm, altruistic introverts highly preferred, opportunistic assholes also acceptable.

Age irrelevant, but if you're a child I will comment on it.

I have the second possible serial number. If there were more of me, they would have come after.

No, Connors are not alive. There is no karma to carry with no afterlife.

[badlydisarmed]

Connors don't believe they have a soul. Interesting.

This is a multiple universes thing then. Not a different robot, but you from a parallel world.

As a parenthesis, typing that made me feel both stupid and insane.

[instabilitatem]

I am not alive. I cannot die, I can only upload my memory to Cyberlife's servers should my body be in peril.

With the exception of the two most recent destructions in Solmara.

[badlydisarmed]

The @ Accelerator person might be able to help you with repairs. I'm meeting up someone else who seems to know mechanics, @ finch.

[instabilitatem]

I'll reach out to Accelerator since you're meeting with Finch?

[badlydisarmed]

Yeah. If he asks, we met here and you damaged yourself falling down some stairs.

He's inquisitive and protective of you, try keeping your story consistent.

[instabilitatem]

Of course.

I fell down several flights of stairs and have been unable to repair myself.

[badlydisarmed]

Yeah. Great. Very believable.

Next time you come up with a cover story, run it by me before you try it, will you?

[instabilitatem]

I thought it was very believable

[badlydisarmed]

Not only it's not remotely believable, it also makes you sound like a battered spouse.

[instabilitatem]

I'm not married to anyone.

[badlydisarmed]

Doesn't matter. First thing people think when someone explains an injury as falling down the stairs is "they were beat up by their husband."

[instabilitatem]

...

But I'm not married to anyone.

[badlydisarmed]

Forget it. My point is, anyone you told that specific lie to knows you lied.

But sticking to it is the best you can do for now.

[instabilitatem]

I have stuck to it. No one else except Hank knows any different.

[badlydisarmed]

Hank??????

[instabilitatem]

I know him from home. He doesn't want me to be harmed any more either.

[badlydisarmed]

What else did you tell Hank, Connor?

[instabilitatem]

He's trying to get me to deviate so I don't go forward with the mission.

[badlydisarmed]

[ Oh good. We're tentatively cool with Hank. ]

How's that going for you?

[instabilitatem]

Not well so far. But he's trying.

[badlydisarmed]

Likelihood of him telling everyone before we do anything?

[instabilitatem]

Very unlikely.

I encourage you talk with him on the subject.

[badlydisarmed]

Yeah, I'll get in touch.

Here I thought the security risk would be the weird forest elf guy.

[instabilitatem]

Do you consider me a security risk?
