[The feed opens on the face of a young man who looks about in his early twenties. He gives the camera a little wave with his prosthetic arm. There's some obvious cracks in it. Vash, for his own part, doesn't seem overtly troubled.

Still, some practicalities need to be dealt with. So:]


Ah, hello! I've never done something like this before--I hope I'm doing it right, ahah. But my name is Vash. I'm new around here, and I was wondering if anyone was familiar with the maintenance of prosthetics? I might've damaged my arm a little bit before I was brought here, and my usual mechanic isn't here...

[He rubs at his neck, a little sheepishly.]

I can't offer much in exchange, but I'd be glad to help out with anything you might need! Thanks in advance. I look forward to working with everyone!

[Newt has never done anything wrong in his life ever. Don't cite that.

As he flops down, there's definitely this aura of someone too much energy for a little dude, holding one of the cans with four fingers while the fifth pops the tab (clearly something he does way too often, as if the other hand is always too preoccupied). Speaking of the other hand, it's already digging around one of the boxes to pull out some of the more basic tools used in things like these.]


Man, it's no problem. This kind of stuff keeps me busy, yanno? And if I'm busy, I don't get bored; you don't wanna deal with me when I'm bored. [Hermann would have a list of write-ups he'd sent to Pentecost that would speak to this. But anyway!] Honestly, I feel like a pro at prosthetic arms at this point; not legs, sure, but arms! I'd made a pair for Viveca forever ago too, for her robo-bod. You met Viv yet?
