“So why where you like, making sparks? Cant that set a fire?” Leppu asks, looking toward the place that Kylie was welding previously.
-
Kylie looks at the spot now covered by the wall, “Well, no. Fires don’t normally happen that easily when there’s lots of metal… But the sparks are more what happens instead of fire!” She takes back the welder and gestures to it, “You see, there’s a lot of power going to this when it’s turned on, but it’s off right now… And this particular metal melts very easily when it’s powered and in contact with more metal, and it cools off quickly to make it solid again. So it’s like a metal glue… made of more metal. I was just doing some minor details around the inner workings of it and replacing a few parts that got waterlogged… I don’t even know how that happened! Is there someone that makes a lot of water…?”
-
Leppu’s eyes widen slightly and he sends a quick, somewhat fearful glance towards Barnaby and looks down sadly, “She said that she doesnt want me to ever talk about her again… I think she hates me.”
-
Kylie looks over at the person, “Oh. Okay then. Welp. Either way, the parts can be salvaged, I just need to work on them a bit.” She nods at the person, “Anywho. What were we talking about?” She scratches her head, not sure of what to do now.
-
“I… don’t really know her name, she wears this really old-fashioned dress, I’ve never really seen anything like it before… I don’t think I should talk about her, I don’t want her to hate me…” Leppu explained vaguely in a voice unusually slow and quiet for him.
-
Kylie nods her head, “Ah, don’t worry. I’ll find her eventually… Just need to get the camera’s ready to go and I’ll know what she looks like… then I can just tell her to stop messing with my stuff…” She sighs slightly. “So, Leppu… You need anything fixed or…? I am kind of suppose to do that kind of stuff all over the ship.”
-
Leppu tilts his head “You’re asking me? No one’s ever asked me something like that before.” He smiles sweetly, “Thanks, but nothing’s broken.”
-
Kylie nods her head, “Gotcha. If anything breaks… just let me know.” She glances at the others, “Uh… you guys know of anything broken?”
-
Floating around at Leppu’s head hight, Lawrence slowly floats around the pair “looked like manipulation of water molecules”
-
“Eh? Molecules…?” Leppu steps foreword, “Where are the molecules?” He reaches his head to look where Lawrence was, “I dont really see them…”
-
Rolling onto his back, Lawrence looks at Leppu “well you can’t trust atoms… they make up everything.”
-
Kylie looks between the two of them, “Water molecules… Hm… Well, that could certainly be a bit of an issue… I can’t mess with magic too much.” She looks at them while they have a conversation, starting to giggle at the science joke.
-
“…Atoms?” Leppu scratches his head and glances a Kylie, “Was there a joke? I dont get it.”
-
Kylie smiles a bit, “Atoms are the base of legitimately everything… Hence, they make everything up.”
-
“Oh, I get it, like how pixels make a game…” He seems to zone out, following a trail of thought for a minute, then goes wide eyed, “Is anything real? What if we’re in a game? …My brain hurts, I don’t like science.”
