What's up, Exsilium?

[ ... ]

We! We're totally up, get it?

[ A nervous laugh. Ella pls. ]

I swear it sounded better in my head. Anyway! Welcome, newbies! I'm Ella, Ella Ellis and yeah that's my name. For those that don't know yet, I'm the person that gets you whatever you want, no matter what. Unless it's like, really complex. Or alive. Or a hydrospanner. I mean, seriously Han, the damn thing has exploded like ten times in my face already. Sure you don't want a battery powered screwdriver?

[ Not that she can really do one of those without the risk of explosion either. ]

But yeah- you need something, you ask me. I'm still not charging for this, so hey, better make good use of it. And yet I didn't want to talk about this, or at least not only this. I keep getting sidetracked.

So for the ones that were around on August, I hosted a pretty kickass party, right? September wasn't so good for parties because we were too busy, er, you know. Plus we got bombed and not in the fun way. And now we're on the Moon, which is kinda cool, but you know what's cooler?

[ Imaginary drum-roll! ]

VR Rooms! I've been messing with them, and I have decided I can totally host a party inside of one of those. Make a nice, big house, with an even nicer, bigger back yard, maybe put some grills, some games, a pool, make it something more afternoon-evening to let everyone relax for a little bit. And something like a college party in the evening, although all I know about keggers and the like comes from movies so some help would be appreciated.

[ Obligatory pause to breathe. ]

But yeah, it's totally happening, sometime soon in a close VR room to your Moon base. Probably on the last week of the month, but you've been notified! I'm now open for ideas and suggestions. Just like the last time, food and whatever will be handled by yours truly, and the music will most likely be handled by Claudia, I guess. So if there's any real party planner among us, you might want to step up and give a hand.

This totally trivial message ends here.

I actually have a working hydrospeanner, but I need you to look at it to make sure it actually does what is supposed to do. This is the first time I've created something I don't have in my world, so.

The tobacco is ready, if you still want it.

( Normally he'd be roughly twenty feet high and unable to comfortably fit into any room, but thanks to the shrink ray upon arrival, he's hovering somewhere between six and seven. Every time he's reminded of it he sulks for a few seconds, and is doing so when he hears the knock.

And sure, he might have to bend down a little to see past the top of the door frame once it slides open, but that's nothing compared to how he feels it should work when he's surrounded by organics.

STILL. Ella gets a wide smile once he finally looks down far enough to see her. )

Hey.

[lar]

[ TALL. ]

H-hey! Wow.

[ She holds up the vial. ]

Let's do this?

[tilallisoverused]

Ready when you are.

( He steps aside to let her pass, not pausing to let her get settled before he starts to unscrew something on the inside of his left wrist. )

Thanks for doing this. I could go a few months without any or use oil and gas, but it's not the same.

[lar]

I...suppose it wouldn't.

[ She's totally staring, but she offers the vial to him anyway. ]

[tilallisoverused]

( He takes it from her and holds it to his wrist, letting a trickle of fuchsia liquid flow into it. It moves slowly - like blood, and glows. Once there's a sufficient amount he holds it back out to her. )

Think that's enough?

[lar]

Let me see.

[ She holds the vial high, looking through the liquid if possible. ]

Just some questions now. Is it combustible? Does it corrode skin or something? Can it be smelled?

[tilallisoverused]

( It's not transparent in the slightest, unfortunately. Robot blood energy reasons, or something. )

No clue. I guess it kind of smells?

( How helpful is he? Really helpful. )

[lar]

[ Oookay. ]

Well then, this will take some days to cook, but I'm pretty sure I can make this work. I'll let you know when I have it done? And we can test it out then. ]

[tilallisoverused]

I'm not gonna lie, I want to be out of here in a few days. ( But it's not like he has a choice in the matter, and that's frustrating in its own way. ) But uh, sounds good.

[lar]

And I don't want to be a party pooper and tell you that's so not going to happen, but hey, here's to hope, right?

[tilallisoverused]

They should know better than to tell me something's impossible. I'll figure it out.

( he has before, and surely that'll work in his favor here!! )

[lar]

When you do, let me know, okay?

[ SHE HAS FAITH IN YOU. ]

[tilallisoverused]

Sure.

( IF HE REMEMBERS AND MANAGES TO THINK OF OTHERS IN THE HEAT OF THE MOMENT. he flexes his right arm, although it's less flexing and more going through the motions to make sure all the connections and gears are working properly.

rodimus really does hate being this small. )
