➠ II (ACTION).

[notvader]

[ anyone who happens to come across the bridge situated across the river between houses twelve and fifteen this afternoon will find one anakin skywalker tinkering with his right arm -- the false, mechanical one. he's doing so with a small metal file, something that may seem frustrating given the look upon his face, but is actually rather enjoyable

[ anakin regards the young man with an appreciative look, but answers-- ]

It's not really broken. I just have a habit of making modifications when I'm bored.

Action;

[notvader]

Not really any specific ones at the moment. Just making sure everything is still functioning properly.

[ kirk was minding his own business until he noticed the other guy working on a mechanical object. one that just so happened to be attached to his arm, actually. which was really no surprise to kirk. the surprise came from the fact that it was working. ]

That working for you alright?

[notvader]

[ anakin looked up a fraction of a second before the man spoke. ]

It works just fine. Tinkering with it is more of a hobby than a necessity, you could say.

[canyonsiniowa]

At least it's real technology.

[notvader]

[ ani snorts, shaking his head. ]

Unlike the rest of this farkled backwater stick-in-the-swamp rock.

[Hikari likes to meander around the village ever so often, even when it's chilly out, but she has a nice warm jacket for that. She doesn't raise any questions about the arm, but she does pause to lean on the rails of the bridge a bit.]

Hello.

[Action]

[notvader]

Hi.

[ this ought to be interesting. he was always awkward around the younglings in the temple. ]

[cherishedlight]

It's a nice day, isn't it? Not too windy, though I think it might rain soon.

[Action]

[notvader]

[ small talk? he stared at her for a moment, not really used to people who weren't politicians trying to make nice with the big scary jedi -- let alone a child talking to him. ]

Uhh, yeah. Nice. It's a good climate. Weather actually varies. Always a plus side to a planet like this.

[ unlike his homeworld. sun, sun, sun, some could-kill-you wind, and more sun. ]

[pfft_scumbag]

[Returning from a rather intensive shooting practice in the woods, Xanxus passes yet another scumbag. Normally he would ignore them or rudely bump into them if they really were blocking his path but this particular piece scum was doing something that actually managed to pique Xanxus' interest.]

Ah?

[He stands still, eyes narrowing a bit as he watches the other working on something that looks like somekind of robot-arm. Something that makes Squalo's prothese looks like fucking kidsplay.]

[notvader]

Can I help you?

[ anakin looks up, a bit impatiently, tapping the metal file he'd been using against the arm's frame. ]

[pfft_scumbag]

[Xanxus hears the question but he's too busy examining the mechanical arm. It almost looks goddamn futuristic. And even though Xanxus does not have many interests, this is sure a pretty interesting sight.]

Such delicate matters shouldn't be done outside, scum.

[notvader]

[ and the use of the word "scum" all but obliterates anakin's inclination to be nice. orz, his short fuse. ]

Oh, and you know how to handle cybernetics? I've been fixing and building things since I was a kid on a planet with a climate far harsher than this one. I know what I'm doing, sleemo.
