 [The camera clicks on and the screen is immediately filled by a huge, glowing red light. Then it pans back and the light is framed by black and it becomes apparent that it is not a light, but a face. A face that, despite having no features to convey emotions with, is clearly quite annoyed.]

Well.

[He is not happy. As a rule, he doesn't appreciate

You're in a city called Axiom Nexus. It's kinda like a bridge between worlds.

[redeyedreindeer]

[Oh look an organic. He hasn't seen one of you in person before.]

I see. Why does it exist and why has it pulled us all here?

[greasemunkygal]

It's the whole different realities thing. This is one of them.

As far as why, well...there's till some speculation on that one.

[redeyedreindeer]

I don't suppose you would care to share that speculation.

[greasemunkygal]

Sure.

Every now and then, people - or mechs - will disappear, and come back with crazy mods or something uh, different. Some of us think there's someone picking us off and running experiments on us all.

We haven't been able to prove anything yet, that I'm aware of.

[redeyedreindeer]

Hmmm. None of those who return remember where they were taken or who tampered with them? [If there had been mods missing instead of added, he might have his suspicions as to the perpetrator, but he really has no idea.]

[greasemunkygal]

Nope, they don't. [She shrugs. She happened to be one of those with a blank couple of days in her memory.]

Still a mystery, so far.

I'm Mikaela, by the way. I run Steel Dreams down in Zone 5. [He'll hear of it soon enough. It's well known.]

[redeyedreindeer]

[He doesn't really care for the designations of organics. Still, it's never a bad idea to cultivate alliances with those who might be potentially useful in the future.]

Shockwave.

[greasemunkygal]

[...Huh.]

Nice to meet you. Let me know if you need anything else.

[redeyedreindeer]

What manner of services do you provide at this shop of yours? [Might as well ask that now.]

[greasemunkygal]

I'm a mechanic, but I mostly specialize in repair and medical work on your kind these days.

[redeyedreindeer]

[Oh that could be useful indeed, if there are no mechs around capable of doing such work. Though he does have to wonder how efficient it is for a single, tiny organic to conduct repairs on beings many times its own size.]

[greasemunkygal]

It's a neutral area. I'm not partial to factions.

So, yeah. Need anything, I'm your girl.

[redeyedreindeer]

I shall keep that in mind.
