The Helm she holds is simular to the one in the spoiler. The color is just green (no white or red) and the metal string in the back isn't there.

"But you can't think of anything like that?"

Yeah he sounds a bit aggressive, but he smiles wide.

"The heml you hold IS the suit or with other words. The helm is able to create the suit around his user."

"As you wish," the doctor says. He gives a respectful bow, the tails of his grey coat swaying as he does. "Vould you sit?" Should she do so, the doctor will say, "Good, good. Now. Is there... anyzing you have ever wanted to change about yourself? Anyzing you haven't liked?"

"The two aren't always the same, you know," she answers quietly, frowning somewhat. "But my reaction time, I suppose. And of course, it would be nice to not be quite so useless out of my suit."

[Security]

After some remote monitoring of his vitals, it doesn't concern them too greatly. He's allocated 'late' shifts like a Revenant, although with less of a workload. Revenants will of course do any work, and Elexxion isn't concerned about their wellbeing like they are Evan's.

"Fettina. Female. Age twenty two. Height five feet, two inches. Weight one hundred and twelve pounds. I've found someone matching these specifications," Merakiel displays a woman on a camera feed. Definitely Tina in her human form. Looks like she's sitting in the employee lobby and sipping something from a metal cup. Her face is dominated by a blank, distant stare.

Evan knows that stare by now. It's the look of someone engulfed in the Net, Elexxion's virtual playground, exploring or chatting or otherwise keeping busy. Some people can keep Net uplinks while focusing on something else, but Fettina is not one of them.

[Security]

Evan nods and stands up, "Thank you. I haven't taken a break in a little over eight hours, so I'm going to take an hour here. Our security personnel should know what they need to watch."

Of course, Merakiel knows the break thing isn't entirely true. He never takes breaks at all.

Front Entrance --> Lobby

"Elexxion doesn't hold unrealistic expectations, sir. Mages are weapons. We just ask that you refrain from using magic without permission while on the premises," the guard explains politely, clearly having learned how to respond in such a situation. "But that will be exceptable."

[Lobby]

"We're not weapons," the mage says, "We're just people who've learned a certain skillset. Martial artists are the same," however, he doesn't press any further than that.

In the lobby, he'll wait as long as he needs to for someone to arrive.

[Murkus]

[Clinic Offices]

"Care to demonstrate?" Naitiri requests, offering the helmet back to Andy. She seems excited to the see the results, but equally cautious. She's not impulsive like her youngest sister Tina, and certainly won't try on the helmet herself until she's seen Andreas do so.

[Underground Laboratory]

"Mm. Useless. How do you mean, dear? You must be mores specific," the machine-man requests, turning and summoning a holo-display in preparation for augmentation orders.

[Security]

"There is nothing that requires your immediate attention, Evanasgrix," Merakiel declares. The digital presence has trouble discerning the reasoning behind such a silly little lie. Why would Evan say he takes breaks if he never needs them? "Please enjoy your break."

[Lobby]

Whether a mage thinks of himself as a weapon or not makes no difference to the guard. The potent destructive aspect of magic is the only kind that matters to an executive officer in the ESA.

"How would you describe your school of magic, Mister...?" The security guard asks, standing in front of the mage and guessing at his gender. It's really rather hard to tell. "Elexxion is attempting to design a categorical system encompassing every form of observable magic. Your contribution would be greatly appreciated."

[Lady Serpentine]

[Underground Laboratory]

"Not really a big deal to be all nice and human and trigger all that biofeedback in your team if they die because you couldn't do anything to keep them safe, is it? Hardly going to be comforting for any of the ones who make it through when they start thinking about whose fault it is they need it in the first place, even," she answers, sounding almost bitter.

"Care to demonstrate?" Naitiri requests, offering the helmet back to Andy. She seems excited to the see the results, but equally cautious. She's not impulsive like her youngest sister Tina, and certainly won't try on the helmet herself until she's seen Andreas do so.

[Clinic Offices]

"Well.. don't assume much."

He will try on the helm, which perfectly fit's his head. No wonder, right? . then he get's a cable to connect hs shoulder with the helm. Noteable should be that until Andy tries to plug in the cable, there wasn't any sign of a connection.

As Andy press the gem on the helm it starts to power up. Metal plates run down his right side creating part of the suit around his shoulder, arm and hand. As it reaches the hand a screen appears out of nowhere showing of several kryptic sign, obviously a warning. Andy shut's down the suit immediatelly and the suit get's back to the helm.

"I hope that's enougth. It still leaks a usefull power souce."

[Beans]

[Vesa's]

Alia nods.

"I do too, Iru..."

Vesa pulls her closer, frowning softly.
It was nice to have someone who seemed... romantically interested in me, I think.

[Lady Serpentine]

Vesa pulls her closer, frowning softly.
It was nice to have someone who seemed... romantically interested in me, I think.

Alia frowns as well, and goes to pull the other girl - who, considering Alia's size, is probably at least somewhat smaller - into her lap, nodding, and going to gently kiss her forehead.

"Is there anything I can do to help?"

((Poor Iru. Alia, at this point, probably is interested in her too, except she's insecure and awkward enough that she's probably never going to bring it up on her own...))

[Beans]

[Vesa's]
((Poor everyone, basically.))
She snuggles closer, nestling into her lap.
Being held is nice...

[Lady Serpentine]

[Vesa's]
((Well, yeah, that too.))
Alia holds her tightly, stroking her hair.
"Do you want to stay with me tonight?"

[Beans]

[Vesa's]
She nods, smiling a little.
Yes, please... that'd be pleasant/

[Lady Serpentine]

[Vesa's]
Alia smiles back a bit, nodding as well.
"Agreed... And I'm sorry for not being around more, Iru."

[Beans]

[Vesa's]
I haven't been around enough either, so neither of us is totally at fault.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Vesa's]
"True enough... I still feel bad about basically abandoning you, though. I care about you; I don't like seeing you hurt."

[Beans]

[Vesa's]
She sits up, frowning. Please do not be overly critical of yourself.
The pale, strange woman hugs her friend close.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Vesa's]
Alia smiles softly, nestling against the Revenant, and resting her head on Vesa's shoulder.
"Alright, dear... Sorry."

[Beans]

[Vesa's]
She blinks a little at being called "dear", but smiles gently, finding she likes it.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Vesa's]
Alia blushes a bit on realizing she called Vesa that, but otherwise is perfectly content to simply lay there with her friend for a while.

[Beans]

[Vesa's]
The pale girl toys gently with her friend's hair. Such a fun color!

[Lady Serpentine]

[Vesa's]
Alia smiles, apparently happier than she's been in a while, and carefully reaches up to do much the same.
"This is nice..."

[Beans]

[Vesa's]
Indeed. Your hair is still very pleasant, especially in its color.
She gently nuzzles her friend's hair.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Vesa's]
Alia smiles, seeming to grow a bit less nervous at that, and gently nuzzles her shoulder.
"Thanks. Yours is too, Iru."

[Beans]

[Vesa's]
Soon Vesa's gently kneading her upper arms---she seems to have become quite interested in her friend's skin. I guess she likes textures...

[Lady Serpentine]

[Vesa's]
Alia smiles, apparently enjoying the kneading, and, after a bit, goes to start gently massaging Vesa's shoulders and arms as well.

[Beans]

[Vesa's]
She smiles, sighing gently as they carry out a mutual massage. Fun!

[Lady Serpentine]

[Vesa's]
Which likely continues for quite a while! Though towards the end, Alia seems to be having to stop her hands from wandering somewhat...

[Beans]

[Vesa's]
She frowns a little in confusion, reaching up to correct her deviation.
I do not think the torso is a suitable location for such muscular stimulation.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Vesa's]
Alia blushes again, nodding.
"Er. Yeah. That would be the case, I think. Sorry, Iru..."

((Not quite what I intended, but eh. It works, so whatever.))

[Beans]

[Vesa's]
Vesa smiles gently and pats her hand.
It's alright.

[Lady Serpentine]

[Vesa's]
Alia smiles just a bit as well, relaxing somewhat.
"Do you want me to just stay here, or will we be using my room tonight?"
