[Gibson is in the library, a few collections of illustrated steampunk books open on a table from which he's idly sketching a few diagrams.]How many of you know anything about steam power ( Read more... )

I'm not familiar with designing it or anything, but we have ships called Sand Steamers back home. The only problem with that is not having Plants to run them.

I'm not a bad driver though, if you do come up with something.

[dictated back!] bostrumite September 26 2011, 04:12:03 UTC

I'm assuming you mean something besides what everyone else here calls a "plant".

I will. Actually, if you could sketch a basic layout of the controls you're familiar with, I can incorporate that into the design.

[and forever?] thedicearecast September 26 2011, 23:34:58 UTC

Yeah. They're the major source of power where I'm from. Looks a lot like a giant light bulb.

Sure. Can't say how good of a sketch it'll be, but I can try.

[And hope that a car in this guy's world looks like what it does in hers--if they even have them. Because while Amelia does try, arguments can be made on how much she actually succeeds.]

...Huh. But it's not electricity? Any idea what the type of power is called?

Thanks. [They do, sort of. More or less. Let's just say there's a variety that includes huge tanks.] I'll see what I can do.

thedicearecast September 28 2011, 03:53:41 UTC

Not really. All that stuff is lost technology where I'm from. There's maybe a handful of people who actually understand it.

[And this bounty hunter isn't one of them.

So long as he gets it enough to make it work? Amelia's good.] Sure. Hope you can get it up and running like you want.

Too bad. It would be something to see if we could duplicate it here.

The first minute I have something, I'll let you know. [Which, if Tony Stark left something like the Doctor says, should be pretty soon.]

thedicearecast October 4 2011, 07:08:14 UTC

Sorry. [He'll just have to get help with the next project somewhere else.]

Sounds good. I'm Amelia, by the way.

bostrumite October 4 2011, 23:40:51 UTC

Gibson. I'll let you know when we have something workable.
