35 ⁂ not quite according to plan

Mr. Lezard, I'm afraid I was sort of ambushed by a memory cr an apple. Namely by one falling out of the kitchen cabinet and onto my head

'Full use of your hands'?

[weaver_girl]

[A rough doodle not entirely unlike this, sans the background, appears below this reply.]

Mm-hm. I'm wearing these kind of clawlike mittens. I have my thumbs, but the rest of the fingers are pretty much stuck together.

[cathar_jedi]

[Lengthy pause of wat.]

That seems a particularly aimless punishment, even for a place such as this.

[weaver_girl]

You know the strangest thing about it? It really seems familiar.

[ghost_of_00]

Do you need help?

[weaver_girl]

Do you maybe have any experience with fully motorised robot suits? Fine manipulation is sort of a challenge right now.

[ghost_of_00]

I don't think so. Not the kind you've drawn.

However, I can carry out tasks requiring fine manipulation.

[weaver_girl]

I'm not altogether sure this design is sound in the first place.

That would be really helpful, thank you!

You have MISSILES? [Pause.] THAT IS SO COOL. ♥

Can you still carry a tray and stuff? 'Cause, I can take care of stuff at the Bar for now if you need me too! Even Axel says I'm getting pretty good. And you can, um, shoot missiles at people if they get too rowdy! :)

[weaver_girl]

[That gets a laugh out of her.]

I think we might need to get the old cart out of storage. The one I used before I could balance trays.

Thank you, that would help a whole lot! I'm not sure about shooting missiles at patrons, though. Axel is bad enough already with his trying to set people on fire.

[viva_la_materia]

Axel is a goober. Everybody knows that. Even he does, I think.

Anyway, don't worry about it. The great Materia is on the job! : )

[weaver_girl]

Shh, don't tell him you know. He likes to pretend, I think.

Do we have employee bonuses? If we don't, I'm starting one right now just so I can pay it to you. Thank you so much.

[spandexisyouth]

Your costume sounds very different.

[weaver_girl]

I don't think there's anything of the same about it, really.
