OOC: Sure Psyke, sorry about that. But I would prefer Roid leaving his stuff in a storage room rather than Baggage Claim... That was a SoulStorm Brewery facility, wasn't it?

"Well, first of all..." said #7 Slig, after Roid finished his introduction. "...I'm #7 Slig, Head of Security of this place. Arnie sent you to see me, right? Well, there's no definate guard post for ny of the Sligs around here, just patrol on the corridors and make sure everything's OK."
He eyed the hacker Roid was holding. "Well, if you feel safe with that thing in a place full of Paramites and whatnot, be my guest to use it. But if I were you, I would carry at least a pistol, just to be on the safe side."

Rick was still catching his breath, after he was nearly strangled by RG. He was kind of amazed by the unconcern RG was showing to his blindness. "Uh... How is it... Aren't you annoyed that you can't see?" he asked.
"The function of sensing visual data is not irreplacible when you're a robot." he said. "Another drawback of being an organic..." he added nastily. "Still, as I said, I can hear what's happening around me, and I can sense sudden heat changes in a short proximity. But this is a basic function of my hardware, incomparable to my visual heat-seeking - which is currently inactive and will remain so, for obvious reasons." Shards of glass fell out from his 'eye' sockets.
"Can I do anything to help you?" asked Rick.
"For a start, you should lead me to a room where I can find tools to fix the damage done to my sensors."
"But how can you repair yourself if you're blind?" asked Rick, confused.
"I only need help to find the tools and the parts I need. I'm perfectly aware of the coordinates of my sensors and their components. You would see what I mean if you closed your eyes and tried to touch your chin with your finger."
Rick thought about this, closed his eyes and and tried to do so. RG was right, he found his chin on the first try. "Oh, I see what you mean. So I only have to give you tools and you'll do the rest?"
"Exactly. But first, you should be aware that there's something lurking at the walls to our right." said RG, turning his head to the place where he heard Goresplatter's pants hit the floor. Rick look around RG and saw a shadow moving in the crowd of pipes. "Who's there?" he called, raising the broken pipe in his hands.

Arnie noticed the new Glukkon standing near them. "We haven't met before, have we?" he asked. "Newcomer Glukkons usually send a message to us when they want to work here. Anyways, my name is Arnie, Boss of Rupture Farms, and this here..." He inclined his head to Otto. "...is my assistant and Flak Clerk of this factory, Otto."
"Howdy." came the greeting from Otto.
"Now, we were just inspecting the workers and the Grinding Station itself. Nothing out of the ordinary." said Arnie. After a short pause, he asked. "Why did you decide to come here, anyway?"
--------------------------------
OOC: That's one long post. I tried to answer to everyone here.
Is that OK with you, Goresplatter?
