"Don't worry, I got this," Lloyd said, raising his hand, nothing but calm confidence in his voice. In truth, he wasn't so sure he had this at all. It wasn't that he was incapable of dealing with technology -- nothing like that. Lloyd could handle a tape player or a car radio just fine. But this thing, whatever it was... well, it was obviously way ( Read more... )

Bert held back, but watched with mild interest as Lloyd handled the music player. It didn't look like it had much in the way of buttons, so it couldn't be too complicated, nothing like the controls to the music in the club or in the radio station.

Bert quirked a mock-moody eyebrow at Lloyd and snatched the thing out of his hand, turning it over and examining all sides.

"Oh," he said, finally. "We're idiots. It needs a battery."

He kenned batterys. He looked for the place they would put a battery once they had one. Hmm... There was a little switch. He slid it over. It didn't do anything. He switched it back. He slid it forward. He switched it back. He slid it forward.

"Oh, what the fuck!" His patience was admittedly spoiled by the fact that he'd expected to have a kind of beginner's luck with it, and now that it was in his hand, he had the wild urge to chuck it at a tree.
