[OPEN] Maybe someone should call an exterminator...

Who: Agatha Heterodyne, some dingbots, and you
Where: The Pisces apartments, and possibly also the other apartments via the teleporters.
What: Agatha has built herself some small assistants. They've gotten bored and are wandering around unsupervised.
Warnings: Precocious little robots. Potential mutilation of household appliances.
OOC: Let me know in the subject line if you want the Dingbots, Agatha, or both.


[Agatha has been busy since her arrival in Hinoto-Ri. The first order of business was to build a more reliable death ray. But, as she preferred to work with assistants, she'd built a handful of dingbots before she started in on the project.

This is all well and good, but while she is occupied with tests and adjustments on her new gun, the little dingbots decided to make a few new friends. And then those dingbots decided to go exploring.

By the time Agatha looked up, she was facing a single dingbot. The rest of the room is littered with parts and tools, but all the other dingbots are nowhere to be found. ]



Oh, no....


[So, those who live in the Pisces apartments may have noticed the tiny clanks rushing about. They can be found poking around rooms, exploring the greenhouses, and perhaps even trying to be helpful by fixing or improving any small appliances they might find.

If not the clanks, perhaps you might see Agatha, wandering the apartments, peeking around corners, peering into rooms, and checking behind potted plants. She's clearly looking for something. Those with sharp eyes may notice the dingbot in her pocket.]



Ugh, why do they always run off like this?

[He shakes his head, trying not to send water flying from his hair.]

It's not that much trouble, really. Well, apart from the last part there.

[He chuckles wryly, shrugging as they head for the door.]

Don't mention it. I'm happy to help. Besides, I would have felt guilty if that first one had actually managed to get out my window.

[He picks up his shoes. Putting them on seems kind of pointless right at the moment; it would only get them wet, and it's less dangerous to walk around barefoot in the apartment complex than it would be almost anywhere where he comes from, including indoors.]

Well, yes. But even if the fall didn't damage it you'd have had a city to search, instead of a building. Even if these buildings are ridiculously large.

[Erk heads for the stairs. He's got nothing against the elevator, it seems like a fantastically convenient idea, but he thinks he can go up one flight of stairs more quickly than taking the elevator between them would go.]

[And he has to admit he's a little curious about Agatha and her "clanks" now - for some reason they don't seem as threatening as Hinoto-Ri's looming skyscrapers and speeding cars. Sort of an intermediate step.]
