    Taking a break from Pesty's latest project. You'd be amazed how much armor you can fit into a belt...

    Chris nods his head. "Ah, gotcha. Is it, like, collapsible, or some kind of transforming device or what?"

    ... Sorta both. It only works for a short while, but we've reduced the cooldown time significantly.

    It's just a computer... it basically goes like this.
    She pulls out her phone and pulls up a sample MP3 of a computery voice going "SYS-TE-MU BE-RU-TO E-TA A-KU-TI-VA-TO", rather like this.
    We're actually basing it off software pioneered by someone originally from Japan, and Pesty hasn't been able to get the damn voice program to speak in anything but Engrish, so you'll never hear "System Belt Eta Activate" clearly.

    Chris kind of chuckles a bit. "Can't you change out the voicebanks or something? I'm sure that if you actually change the files that the computer draws from it wouldn't speak in engrish anymore. Unless the computer is partially sentient that is."

    Unfortunately, the linguistics software is tied into the transformation routines and keeping the damn thing working at all while changing the language may not be an option...
    Unfortunately for the world, Pesty will probably start to enjoy the Engrish.

    "You're not saying she's gonna go around speaking only in highly stereotypical and exaggerated Engrish all the time, are you?" He says with a bit of desperation in his voice.

    No way Grant would let her pull that kind of shrieking insanity, hell no.
    But she'll go around with an Eta Driver that's loudly talking in EN-GU-RI-SHU every time she uses it, adn that's bad enough.

    "...yes. I have to agree. That is terrible. We'll have to hide somewhere far, far away when that happens." Chris has a look of dawning horror on his face.

    At that point, things start to dawn on Chris. His jaw visibly slackens a little bit in the surprise. "...Would you believe me if I said yes? Although...not quite in that form. In fact...I'm getting the impression you came from a mirror opposite universe from ours. Carrie is still a good guy over here, though, just to get that straight."

    "Yes, I suspected that as well, since I met and conversed with this Nexus's Civiron. She is much different than the one I know." Chris may notice one of the bandaged man's hands curl into a fist as he talks about Civiron. "May I ask how you know of Carrion?"

    We can find a nice cozy bunker together.

    Right, Callie Pyrsol is led to the room where Angela is waiting and the two young women size each other up. Angela might have gone in for the hug right away, but the black foxgirl seems pretty hostile.

    Caledonia watches them nervously, wondering if she's even supposed to be here still... this was her mom and her sister, but how much did it really concern her? Should she leave?
    She keeps quiet for now.

    Andy, meanwhile, likely has to be restrained to keep from pushing Callie forwards into Angela's arms.

    If she is, she'll fulminate* quietly. If not - push!

    Angela nervously clears her throat and smiles. I'm not the person who is your mother. And I don't think I should even try to be her. But if you want, I'd like to be, like, a sister for you. I don't know anything about you, but if you're going to live in the Nexus, maybe having family would help.

    Callie considers that offer for a minute.

    Caledonia probably has had to try to wrap her arms around Andy to stop her from being Andy... though I don't think the bard would be all that unhappy about that either.
