That's exactly how it works.

[microbrobotics]

i stand corrected. all those years of experience, worthless.

[bombshelled]

Sorry to burst your bubble. All those many, long years of work, out the window...

[microbrobotics]

better quit my job now while i still have dignity left.

[bombshelled]

I'm sure Tony Stark will take it well.

[microbrobotics]

he'll cry himself to sleep every night for a week.

[bombshelled]

LOL. "Who will build my robots now???"

[microbrobotics]

exaaaactly.

[bombshelled]

Speaking of robots, when can I expect my baymini?

[microbrobotics]

come over to de chima #1 and i'll give it to you now. or drop by work sometime. either way.

[bombshelled]

Ooh never been to De Chima. I just go to the porter and they let me through, right?

[microbrobotics]

yep pretty much. from there it's easy.

[bombshelled]

K I'll text you when I'm close.

[ Then, an appropriate amount of time later... ]

Yo loser where's your house?

[microbrobotics]

ooooooone is the looooonliest number

[ He's also flicking the lights on and off in all the upstairs rooms - yours too, Tadashi - with his technokinesis. Like the brat that he is. ]

》action!

[bombshelled]

[ OK she sees the flashing lights.

DING DONG, MOTHAFUCKA.

(When Hiro answers the door she's looking down at her nails, blowing bubbles in her gum like Gogo. ]

[microbrobotics]

[ No wonder he likes her. He heads down for the door and opens it for her. ]

Come on in.

[bombshelled]

[ She smiles and heads inside. ]

Hey hot shot.

[microbrobotics]

[ He grins, shutting the door behind them. ]

I need a nickname for you too.

[bombshelled]

Well use your genius brain and come up with one, then.

[ She gives him a playful nudge as she walks further inside, looking around the house. ]

[microbrobotics]

I'm thinking, I'm thinking.

[ He leads her upstairs. The downstairs isn't bad (if also very clearly inhabited by teenaged boys exclusively), but once they get up to Hiro's room ... it sure is a disaster area in here. Bits of metal stuck in the wall from using his technokinesis too hard, junk littered on almost every inch of the floor, et cetera. Once he enters, though, he concentrates for a moment and everything lifts up into the air. Then there's a recognizable pattern to his madness. He uses his powers to give himself a 3-D workshop. ]

[bombshelled]

[ She's almost impressed by the state of Hiro's mess. When he's not looking, she gives an experimental tug at one thing lodged in the wall to see how stuck it is (spoiler: very)

The 3D workspace is no less impressive the second time, so Lana just tries to stay out of the way while Hiro does his thing. ]

[microbrobotics]

[ At least the junk moves nice and slow when he's getting it into place. Less risk of impalement.

Once the floor is clear, he wanders over to his bed and flops on it. There's a half dozen Bayminis floating above his head. ]

Okay, let's see here...

[bombshelled]

[ Not wanting to feel left out of the action, Lana goes to the bed and flops down beside Hiro. She points at one of the more completed-looking Bayminis. ]

What about that one?

[microbrobotics]

[ The newer ones are soft and squishy, made with translucent white silicone. ]

Nah, he's got a slot in his back for the SD card. Uh ...

[ He tugs one closer with his powers. There it is. ]

[bombshelled]

[ Lana vaguely recognizes the term "SD card," but lbr, she doesn't know what it means.

As Hiro pulls the Baymini closer, she reaches up to pluck it out of the air. ]

This is the one?
