    Vasquez calls Bugs over to look over Harnel and begin to stitch him up by mundane means if possible. "Any description of them?"

    Sunny frowns. She doesn't dislike magic, but her professional pride is a bit miffed that she can't figure out a way to engineer a solution. She rubs the iron ring that she wears on the pinky of her right hand. "The engines will be in place in 36 hours." Of course that meant jackhammers going around the clock until then.

    The bugs will have a bit more of a difficult time stitching him up than a normal human, but that's just because his scales resist most efforts t pierce them. Still stitches won't be impossible, and if they are going to work on his other injuries as well somehow he's got the bruise on his stomach and a few pulled muscles in his arms and legs.

    "Wiry little guy. I didn't get a good look at his face because of the fake blood though. At the time he was wearing jeans, a tee-shirt and a red fall jacket. The trap he set was unfortunately quite good."

    "Posing as someone injured by looters, he looked like he'd taken a few gunshots and was bleeding all over the place. When I asked him who he was, He said his name was Nero, and later confirmed while we were fighting that it was short for Neurosis. He told me there was a hospital nearby, and that he could point out a shortcut through a park, which I took. He exploded into a fog cloud in my arms. Vines started reaching up from the ground and a pair of trees started assaulting me while Nero himself was throwing daggers." He motions to the bruise on his stomach when he mentions the tree, and the gash on his arm when he mentions the daggers, "Strong sucker for such a skinny frame."

    "Anyways, after I dealt with the trees, the vines pulled me down into a pit and tried to strangle me. I probably would have died if this creature called Stheno hadn't come to my rescue. If he can set up an ambush for a single person, this Nero guy is going to get quite a few murders under his belt."

    Harnel nods. He knew Gordon was the leader of AMEN, so that meant Vasquez had probably spoken to him as a prisoner. If he agreed to terms, then she would have let him go with the knowledge that he was doing what she wanted. clever.

    "Something else that occurred to me. Most of the people from WATCHTOWER, while there isn't very many of us, are rather high power. I was wondering if we might set up a system where we can warn each other about threats, maybe get help from each other if the situation is dire enough. We might have been able to help with this latest disaster."

    Inside the box is a sheet of silver silk, wrapped around an object. Presumably she unwraps it. Inside, is a fair sized hammer, one that she'll recognize as an Engineer's Hammer. It has a beautifully polished orange persimmon wood handle, and a black iron sledge. The entire thing was acid etched, depicting a pictographic tail of what happened on the wall in a Celtic style. At the bottom of the handle is an image of Sunny with a ring of light around her. Thin whip like tendrils crawl from the ring up to the head, reaching towards robotic figures on top of a simple wall made of lines. The robots have their arms spread, and the same design of light reaches out from them in waves, protecting the hiding soldiers from what can only be described as a wave of fire washing over the walls.

    It's magical as well, but it's likely she won't be able to tell.

    The soldier stays silent, worried about what she'll say.

    "We have already spoken to Watch, and it's by my understanding, that they'll be sending someone to meet with us soon. Though, my guess is someone other than you."

    Harnel chuckles, "Heh, yeah, I don't look much like a diplomat right now do I? I should probably get some more flame resistant clothes." he makes a short bow, smiling, "Thank you for your time. I should probably go find the rest of my group."

    And unless Vasquez has more for him, Harnel is going to go off towards the blue zone, where a quick and sensible retcon involving plotclones will allow me to proceed with armor into the yellow zone

    Sunny doesn't know what to say. So she picks up the hammer, feeling its weight in her hands. Good tools are so important, and she lost many of them when her factory was destroyed.

    Geoff looks it over. "Shut down, and repairs will be made." If the robot does so, he'll begin to repair it's damaged functions.
    Thank you. TED says, before his eye stops flickering, and a panel opens up on his chest.

    That was thoughtful of him. Now all Geoff has to do is crawl inside TED and start... Oh yeah. Geoff isn't a gremlin.

    Well, it might be a bit more difficult for him then. He can certainly start on the power-supply and the shield generator, which the opening of the panel provides decent access to.

    However the lasers might provide more of a problem. Might have to pry off a plate from each of his arms.

    The soldier will stand and give her a bow, and unless stopped, will quickly leave, hoping he didn't mess it up.

    Robot

    Even with his thick arms, he's rather dextrous when it comes to repairing things, so he should be able to reach inside without a problem. To repair the lasers though, he'll probably take off the panels unless another way presents itself.
