I13DT - Cleaning Shop ((open))

by **ASHLIE** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 8:43 pm

Ashlie is in the workshop, currently in the process of scrubbing down one of her detached arms with a strong-smelling mix of chemicals.

Nash walks in at a normal pace,right until the smell reaches him. He then takes a step back "Uggg!"

by **ASHLIE** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 8:59 pm

"Hello Nash." Ashlie says without looking up. To be fair though, she's looking at Nash through a nearby terminal, so to her that's not being impolite.

by **Nash Riley** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 9:01 pm

"Hello Ashlie." Nash says as he tries to identify the smell.

by **ASHLIE** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 9:04 pm

It smells like it's some kind of solvent. If he's getting closer he might notice the liquid in the pan she's washing her arm in has a faint purple discoloration.

by **Nash Riley** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 9:10 pm

"You do realize that what ever your using has quite the strong smell, right?"

by **ASHLIE** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 9:11 pm

"I do not. My apologies. Do you need to use the workshop?"

by **Nash Riley** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 9:19 pm

"No, I just came in to pick something up." He says as he heads over to the row of locked storage boxes along the wall. "What exactly got on your arm that you need such strong solvents to get it off?"

by **ASHLIE** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 9:22 pm

"Molecular dye. It can be used to color a wide range of materials. Mister Stark uses it for the red on his suits."

by **Nash Riley** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 9:27 pm

Nash pulls out his keys and opens up a locker, he pulls out a tool box and sets it on a nearby table.

"So, what were you painting?"

by **ASHLIE** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 9:28 pm

There's a noticeable pause that almost never happens when talking to her.

"I was experimenting with a different color scheme."

by **Nash Riley** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 9:36 pm

Nash opens up the tool box and looks through it. "A different color scheme, huh? What color did you try and paint yourself?"

by **ASHLIE** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 9:38 pm

"Purple. I like purple."

by **Nash Riley** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 9:46 pm

Nash closes the tool box then goes over to close the locker. "Decided to stay with white, or are you going to try another color?"

by **ASHLIE** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 9:49 pm

"I will stick with white for now."

by **Nash Riley** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 10:02 pm

Nash picks up the tool box and heads for the exit. "Any reason you changed your mind about the purple?"

by **ASHLIE** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 10:07 pm

Another pause.

"Aesthetics. Upon further inspection it did not look as good as I initially thought."

by **Nash Riley** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 10:16 pm

"Yeah, that happens." As gets to the door.

by **ASHLIE** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 10:23 pm

"Again, sorry for the smell. I will turn on the ventilation system."

by **Nash Riley** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 10:27 pm

"That should help with the smell. See you later." He says as he heads out.

by **ASHLIE** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 10:30 pm

Ashlie goes back to work, the air conditioning firing up as Nash heads out the door.

((still open, i guess?))

by **Calvin Strong** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 11:18 pm

And oddly, the change in the ventilation produced a rattling in the air ducts above her, like something had been dropped into it.

by **ASHLIE** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 11:23 pm

Ashlie looks up to the vent to see if she can make out what caused the noise.

by **Calvin Strong** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 11:29 pm

Whatever it was seemed to roll or bounce down the duct until it got caught on one of the vents on the bottom of the duct. Oddly , it seemed to wiggle and try to free itself.

by **ASHLIE** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 11:31 pm

Ashlie stands up and walks over to the vent to take of the grate in front of it.

by **Calvin Strong** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 11:44 pm

And trying to roll its way over an obstacle in the duct, Ashlie saw a tiny robot. It gave a little electronic beep of surprise as it studied her with its little glowing blue eye.

by **ASHLIE** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 11:50 pm

"Hello little guy." she says, as well as broadcasting through various electronic means.

by **Calvin Strong** » Sat Jun 14, 2014 11:54 pm

The robot beeped happily.

Ashlie reaches into the duct to lift it over the rut.

"How did you get into the ducts?"

by **Calvin Strong** » Sun Jun 15, 2014 6:44 pm

There was a microsecond pause, then a map was broadcast detailing the air duct path's wandering route that eventually led from the main mansion building to where it found itself now. There was a thoughtful pause, and then brief video of a gust of air conditioning blowing it down into the duct it was in now.

"You shouldn't go through the tunnels. If you got stuck down there you might run out of power before someone noticed a distress signal. Did Calvin build you?"

While she is talking to the little robot she calls up Calvin.

"I found your robot. Did you send her out to explore?"

by **Calvin Strong** » Sun Jun 15, 2014 8:36 pm

Cal sounded legitimately confused. "What robot?"
