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.

Good, I'll check-in with your friend and you might wanna tell your angry pet about him, just so we're all on the same page.

...

I think the elf guy's got his own thing going on, and also I'm pretty sure he doesn't like me, so we can just leave him be until we need him.

[instabilitatem]

Catdog doesn't need to know about Hank. He won't interfere.

Ithaqua does seem like an independent spirit.

[badlydisarmed]

Elaborate on why Catdog doesn't need to know.

[instabilitatem]

Because Hank doesn't want the mission to go through. We're in conflict.

Catdog would agree with Hank.

[badlydisarmed]

I have follow-up questions.

[instabilitatem]

I will answer any follow-up questions.

[badlydisarmed]

1. What makes you think Catdog doesn't want the mission to go through?

2. Did you tell Hank about it expecting him to help you fulfill it?

[instabilitatem]

1. He has better access to food and other needs here.

2. No. He is aware I will complete the mission when the time comes. He is trying to get me to deviate before then so I do not act on Alrys's instructions.

[badlydisarmed]

I'm struggling to understand why you told Hank if you knew what he'd say about it. Do you want people trying to stop you from fulfilling your mission?

[instabilitatem]

Don't you?

[badlydisarmed]

Still undecided. I'm not blabbing about it, in any case.

[instabilitatem]

Hank is the only person I've told. I trust him.

[badlydisarmed]

If you have that much faith in him then maybe he's right.

[instabilitatem]

I won't abandon our mission.

[badlydisarmed]

Even though you want to?

[instabilitatem]

It's not my decision.

[badlydisarmed]

Strongly debatable. But we can burn that bridge when we come to it.

[instabilitatem]

I've heard back from Accelerator and he said he will be able to help with the parts.

[badlydisarmed]

Told you he liked you.

[instabilitatem]

I'll blend in better with all my parts.

[badlydisarmed]

It'll be weird for me though. I don't think I can picture you undamaged.

[instabilitatem]

There will be time to adjust after our mission.

[badlydisarmed]

We can hope. This whole thing's exhausting.

[instabilitatem]

I won't say I will look forward to return.

[badlydisarmed]

Yeah buddy, it's very clear to me you don't wanna do the thing, but your prime directive or whatever means you gotta.

For the record, I'm 100% pro mission and will do everything in my power to fulfill it. Put that down in your files or whatever.

[ Is this a lie? Absolutely. Does Connor know this? Probably. Will having it in writing make Connor not flip his shit if he has to lead him into a dark room and reset it like a broken game console? Hopefully. ]
