[OPEN] Death rays are a girl's best friend....

[ding_bots_are_done]

Who: Agatha Heterodyne and you
Where: Sagittarius Ward
What: A new arrival in the city takes charge of her situation
Warnings: SCIENCE! (Also action brackets because I am the laziest ever.)



[Agatha is blaming the strange dream on a side effect of lack of sleep and suddenly being shoved through Tweedle's ridiculous door. Right now the question is where that door has taken her. And what happened to the other three people who fell through it with her. Tweedle could be lost in time and space forever and she wouldn't care, but Violetta and Krosp she was a little concerned about. Not to mention the state of things in Mechanicsburg. But there wasn't much she could do about that now. First things first though, she needed a weapon....

So people who happen to be near some of the darkened warehouses may hear strange sounds coming from one of the alleyways. Clanking metal, odd whirring noises, crashing sounds. Those that dare to venture closer will find a woman holding what appears to be some sort of gun made from various bits of scrapped machinery. Her back is to the mouth of the alley, so she hasn't noticed anyone yet. She twists a small dial on the side of the gun and fire it at the trash dumpster. The alley is bathed in a bright flash of light, and when it fades the dumpster is nowhere to be found. Agatha nods in satisfaction.]

Could use some work, but it'll do for now.

Oh! Okay. [Nod nod nod. He gets it now.] I remember reading this series about wizards before- they only showed if they had magic powers and stuff when they hit a certain age.

Still, that's pretty cool. [He gestures to the death ray in her hands.] I guess your gift allows you to create things like that?

[ding_bots_are_done]

Er, yes. But this is really nothing special. I just cobbled this together out of trash.

[People seem so impressed by what is probably the worst death ray she's ever built. It's starting to get embarrassing.]

[primordial]

Trash? [He gives her a look, as if to say ARE YOU CRAZY, WOMAN, THAT I THE MOT AMAZING THING I HAVE EVER HEARD.] You-you're like a regular MacGyver! I mean, that's a character on a TV show who could make invention and stuff from regular ordinary things, but...wow. What a gift. I wish I had that.

[ding_bots_are_done]

MacGyver?

[She has no clue what he's talking about.]

What's a... TV show?

[primordial]

You don't know what television is? Like...when you watch shows and movies on that little box with a screen.

...No?

[ding_bots_are_done]

Sorry, no... We do have shows.

But they're the kind you perform on stage.

[primordial]

Wow.

I mean, you're technologically advanced, but you don't have TV? That's...surprising, to say the least.

[ding_bots_are_done]

Believe me, I find it just as surprising that no one here has heard of revivification.

SORRY FOR THE LATE

[primordial]

Reviva-what now?

no worries~

[ding_bots_are_done]

Revivification.

[He's obviously not familiar with the term, so she clarifies.]

Reviving the dead.

[primordial]

[The most disbelieving of stares.]

Isn't that like...necromancy or something? You don't just go and revive the dead without consequences.
