[It was weird. After a week of feeling like garbage, to wake up feeling as good as he did didn't really make sense. But really, after having a confrontation he was dreading and having it turn out all right? It felt good. And he hadn't felt this good in a long time.

Pokey couldn't remember the last time he actually felt, well, decent since everything. Last Christmas, maybe? Early March, at the very latest? It had been a long time. But now that he'd actually felt it, actually felt some kind of closure, of confidence? It was time not to waste that.]


[Action - 502 Ricardo]

[School? Screw that. Pokey still had something important to do considering his spider mech was still practically sprawled out across the yard. It had gotten repaired some, but really being blown apart with thunder magic will do that to a robot.

But it was coming along. Over the last two months of repairs, there was some small, but noticeable, progress as the mech was slowly repaired. Which still didn't mean to slow down. Right now, Pokey's busy tinkering away on it in the front yard, a small robot scampering around to go and get tools for him when he asks for them. When the robot isn't busy tripping over it's own feet.

Or when the robot isn't running around sporadically from fear as Pokey yells at it for doing something that displeases him, just barely dodging tools as Pokey throws them at it. Either or.]


[Action - Bowling Alley]

[Pokey always thought bowling was a pretty dumb sport. After all, I mean you throw a ball and knock down pins, nothing special about that. Still, he decided he might as well try it out for once, for shits and giggles.

And actually found it pretty good for stress relief. He's really gotten into it.

At the same time, most people usually roll the balls instead of, you know, hefting it up and tossing it. They also generally stick to their own lanes, though that's something Pokey doesn't particularly give a good goddamn about that.

Yeah. Enjoy the fat kid ruining your game.]


[Phone]

So, okay, I've got an awesome plan, but I need to know something first.

Anyone got a TV I can hook a Super Nintendo up to? Because I need to know that before I even bother. You let me borrow your TV and, hey, I might even let you play some.

For. You know. Like maybe a half hour or something.

[And he does. It's pretty easy: there's a giant glass-dome on the very top, which is the command center.]

Here ya go.

[Ruri nods and sits in it, holding out her hands as her hair and clothes suddenly go all 0G and she starts trying to initiate a connection to the system computers]

[It connects. It's fairly sophisticated, but it shouldn't be anything Ruri can't handle.]

[Ruri sits there, trying to assess the state of the hard drives and the main OS, then see what repairs are needed on the software end]

[Thankfully, it appears the areas protecting the coding are pretty resilient. There wasn't much damage done to it, and what does need to be done should only take a bit to recode. The main damage actually was just the hull.]

[Ruri closes her eyes and begins repairs on the damaged code]

Pokey, most of her higher brain functions are intact. She'll probably just have a very nasty headache.

Really?!

[It's hard for him to keep the excitement out of his voice. And for once? He truly sounds like a child, instead of the bitter little creature he had become.

He quickly changes his tone, though.]


Well....good.

Thanks. I owe you.

Wait till I fix the actual damage. I know she'll be in pain but I want it to be as brief as possible.

Yeah, yeah okay.

[Still...she'll be all right. And that's all that matters to him.]

Give me about an hour. Then I'll set her to recompile and defragment. You should be good by morning.

Awesome.




....I owe you one.

[She smiles and shakes her head a bit]

I'm glad to help. Its kind of nice to be able to do something that you were trained for.
