Who: Hiro Hamada!
Broadcast: Text
Action: Bishop, Cargo Bay
When: 3/11, afternoon

sooooo i might have done that "project tunnel vision" thing again. not gonna lie, it was pretty nice. i've been running maintenance so much i was starting to forget what it's like to be making something new.
i've been running around the city when i need money, but it's been brought to my attention that that isn't "socializing".
so
hi, everybody. hiro hamada here. impressionable teenager who isn't getting enough people time and is going to "end up a hermit" if he doesn't say hello to the fleet once in a while.
what did i miss??

forgetting to talk to people? yeah. comes with the "engineering genius" thing.

I don't know how related those are.
It's okay to say you just don't like socializing much.

i've been socializing!! just y'know

[if she's been around the cargo bay at all, this much is at least true; about half the time, he's with one of those three people.]

[Sadly, she has not.]

If you say so.
So what are you working on, anyway?

baby's first bionic arm project

[experiencepoints]

What's a 'bionic arm'?

text

[everydayhero]

it's a prosthetic.
somebody here doesn't have an arm, and i'm building him one that's gonna work with his nerves.

text

[experiencepoints]

Oh.
No one around here has the kind of magic needed for that?

text

[everydayhero]

not magic
science
not that there's a huge difference but
it's doable, and it's happening

text

[experiencepoints]

Yeah, the word 'bionic' is kind of a tipoff that it's not magic.
I'm just surprised there's no one around here who's a high enough leveled healer to fix an arm that way.

text

[everydayhero]

well it's kind of
long-gone
i don't know anybody period who has the healing capabilities to regrow an entire arm

text

[experiencepoints]

I can think of a few still.
But, naturally, none of those people are here.
I'm starting to suspect I picked the wrong magic discipline to specialize in.
How does the arm work?
