Thanks to Milliways time Ellen is here, either after having hit Vault-Tec Headquarters or just a little before. It's hard to say. It probably doesn't matter, though; we can't imagine D0G would care much.

"Oh my goodness. D0G?" she says, hopping down from her stool. "Are you all right? What happened to you?"

[g00d_d0ggie]

Mwooooo... says D0G mournfully, shaking his head and sagging a little on the spot. He may not be able to properly answer the second question, but he is definitely not all right.

"Oh dear." Ellen winces and starts walking around the big robot. "Well... is there anything I can do to help? You're very different from the robots I grew up with, but some of your systems are similar to Wadsworth's, and I've fixed him a few times. I can at least try, if Bar will give me the parts..."

[g00d_d0ggie]

D0G shakes his head again. He doesn't like being worked on by anyone who's not Alyx.

"D0G-bot!" A skinny, read-headed child comes running to the door with a barking Corgi right behind her. "D0G-boooooooooot!" She skids to a stop. Ein bumps into the back of her legs with a yelp. "Ooooh. You do not look so good."

[g00d_d0ggie]

Bweep? D0G perks up at the sight of Ed. He likes Ed!

[shoeless_ed]

Ed peers at D0G, takes a step closer, and pokes a dent in his chassis. Then she embarks upon a careful examination, circling around D0G and taking stock of the damage.

"Ed can fix this!" Pause. "Ed thinks. If Bar will give Ed some circuits and gimballs and things."

[g00d_d0ggie]

Mwrrr... D0G's headflaps flatten and he takes a hesitant step back. He's not comfortable with someone other than Alyx working on him. (The time Ed helped clean his joints out doesn't count. Alyx was there.)
