[it's maybe not as attention-getting as an audio or video broadcast, but a sort of quiet advertisement goes out over the network anyway.]

Engineers or anyone with construction/mechanical skills: your assistance is required aboard the SS Red Fish. please reply if interested. or come to the Red Fish.

Thank you.

[and Coil leaves the door unlocked for anyone who might happen by.

those who do happen by, or live on the ship to begin with, can find Coil feverishly tinkering away in the lab. and it appears that he has kind of rearranged things. he hes redecorated a bit.

some storage cabinets and other things along one wall must not have been that important, because they have all been dragged away or removed entirely, and he is currently struggling to remove pieces of the wall panel itself. he doesn't have the right tools for it, but that certainly isn't going to stop him. and who knows what all off this scrap metal lying around in hazardous-looking piles is supposed to be for...

so, yeah. watch your step. don't get tetanus.]

Oh, come on! That's just rude.

[mortalcoil]

[another huffy sigh, and he taps on the speaker again!

sorry girl, this is all he's got.]

[bolder]

Are you being difficult on purpose? [Pause.] One tap for yes, two for no.

[mortalcoil]

...

[tap. tap.]

[bolder]

Okay, then is it a technical issue?

[mortalcoil]

[there's a long pause... but, eventually, two more taps.]

[bolder]

[A pause.] Can you speak?

[mortalcoil]

[there's another pause... and the sounds are a little quieter this time... but two more taps.]

[bolder]

[It's another moment before she just starts laughing.] This is so bad it's kinda funny! Even if you did video, I'd still get nothing. Oh man, this place is all kinds of weird.

[There are a few more chuckles before her laughter ebbs off.] My name's Toph, by the way! Since it'd be like pulling teeth to get yours, I'm going to call you Tappy for now. Does that work?

[mortalcoil]

[ugh. ...well, she manages to get an exasperated huff of a sigh, this time. that should be enough to convey his thoughts on the matter.]

[bolder]

Tappy it is.
