touchscreens | [Video]An announcement

Hoi, everyone - pretty nasty stuff going on, huh? [Fortuna hums softly, as if unsure of what to say next.]

Look, I know this isn't the time for a sales pitch. But, you know...maybe it's time for this one. I've been getting things together to start my own workshop to build stuff, not just repair. Now that I've got all of it...well, with creepy assassination attempts going on, wouldn't everyone want a weapon? Thing is, I'm gonna need someone to show me how, I've never tried to build guns, or any other weapon for that matter. So I'm hiring, I guess. Temporary.

And once we crank out enough stuff, you all can buy them. Just don't go attacking each other with 'em, got it? I doubt I'd be able to stay in business if you do. You can find me in 2-09 in building 4 now. I've expanded into 2-11 too, for the supplies and equipment. Catch you there, chummers.

Got some news for you guys too. You catch all that? It's something else. I know you asked us to learn what we know, and I infiltrate places for a living back home. See, though...most of us here are eight feet tall or more. And that's not normal for you people here. Makes it kind of hard to get around. So I'm wondering if you'd rather do it - or if there's any reason you want to stay in the city. I'm thinking of making my place a safehouse for you guys. How's that sound to you?

[The reply comes shortly after the broadcast in a strange purple text.]

It would be a welcomed option, yesss... However we 'ave concerns over how to arrive unseen. The skills a few of us have that allow us to ssslither in are uncommon amongst our number, and the tunnels are not connected to the apartments they bessstow upon you "guests".

[Kit looks a bit uncertain at first when she responds, but draws herself up after a moment, determined. After all, the other lady had offered, right?]

Um... do you think you could make a staff? For someone my size? I mean, it probably wouldn't be as hard as a gun or something, so... could you?

[A lot of soul-searching happened before this message, since Tony has a long list of issues with making weapon again. The only reason he responds at all, in fact, is the fact that Saeng Seong is a very different place than home, so he figures things are less likely to go tits up if he makes a couple of guns for scared civilians. Probably.

Tony's expression, however, is as smarmy as usual, even a little intrigued. The combination of "workshop" and "build stuff" is more than enough for him to totally ignore any negative feelings he ever had for her.]

Since you asked so nicely.

I'm not really the "employee" type, though, so we'll have to work that out.

I've got a bit of an engineering background if you're looking for help around the workshop. It'd be fun to work with someone else for a change.

Build a gun...?

[Memories of that impressive assault rifle in action sprang back to mind.]

The only ones I have ever seen were relics, and even the one tinker I knew who could maintain them could not make his own. It can't be an easy task.

Wow!

[At the thought of weapons, Cu Chulainn's eyes go big.]

What sort of weapons? Do you make shields and swords and spears? What about slingshots?
