Nexus. Over on the 'edge of town'. Fallen

[random_xtras]

Blackout comes online slowly and blinks up at the ceiling/sky, her senses screaming so loudly with pain that she's deaf to anything else. It takes her a moment to remember where she is, but then she recalls picking a fight with the femme Prime and winces.

-Note to self. Don't try to slag things you can't even touch.-

She turns her head with an effort, and is a little surprised to see a few pieces of her shell laying a short distance away from her. Then she notice the puddle that she's laying in and stares at it with morbid fascination.

-I'm slagging bleeding to death.-

She should be upset about that... right? Or someone should be.... She can't remember who, though.

-Tired. That's not good.-

The black femme tries to push herself up, only to discover to her utter shock that one of the bits of her that's laying over there is the arm that she needs to be able to sit up.

She blinks and tries to think of a solution to the problem, but then her head drops back to the beaten and soaked ground.

-Doesn't hurt anymore... not good.-

Her optics shutter.

Mega-Octane curses and fixes it as fast as he can. He really isn't an expert, and if he hadn't been checking through the Megastar's databanks earlier in preparation, he'd have no hope here, in the complex internals of an unfamiliar design. What he does know might be enough. Might be.

The fliers are peering forward intently, Armorhide still working at his steady pace. He knows even less than Mega-Octane, but with so much basic work needing to be done, it doesn't mattter.

Liedherz fidgets and rustles her wings as the silence continues, then abruptly appears on the work table again and holds out her hand. "Let me see it."

Mega-Octane doesn't reply, but he happens to shift far enough for her to see...

Her fingers run over the cable as her ears go back in an intent frown, and then she leans forward and listening. "It's the part itself. Something's vrong vith it."

Oh joy. Replacement time. "Movor." He indicates the component as the shuttle-bot leans forward. "Go and see if we have a replacement."

"Yes sir." Movor scoots off across the room, Ro-tor forgetting his stomach as he gets caught up in helping to search.

Sensitive finger pads touch the ends of the bit of cable, and Liedherz's ears go back in a thoughtful frown. "The connectors are gut."

Movor finds a cable that looks about right, and comes back over with it. "How's this?"

Mega-Octane looks up from the other component he was using the time to tweak and inspects it, then nods and takes it.

Liedherz reaches over to see it too, hearing sounds from the little scorpionbot as she does.

Mega-Octane doesn't stop her looking as he starts exchanging the parts, ignoring the scorpion's concerned hissing.
