I have a problem here. It's a minor thing, really, but I don't think I can fix it, which is somewhat depressing considering all the effort I went through to get it. It's my fault, I'll have to shoulder the consequences. I don't think John will care much (until he finds out I didn't manage to salvage everything).

It started out like this.

And by the end of the day...

Any advice would be appreciated.

A machine?

I could possibly repair it.

It was a machine... What do you know about ipods?

Go find one of us electronic-literate people and ask for help, nnddurrr.

I do not know it by that name, but if it electronic...

I have experience with technology, at least. I would not say I was a specialist, but I could attempt.

I can still drive the car around it.

With me in the backseat.

Is that automatic or manual transmission?

You're the one driving.

You're the one riding.

The transmission's your problem, yeah?

Depends if you can keep up.

No, no... I will be riding when I want to, mate.

Do I have to teach you a thing or two about maintenance?

At least, not without something in return...

Haha - I do have to admit, getting it in such a state does indeed require quite an amount of talent ~ ♥

I didn't know you knew a thing about electronics either.

What a disgustingly primitive contraption. Can you honestly not reassemble this piece of scrap?

Okay I get it, the nightmare can't fix shit, can we all stop laughing now?? GOD.

Honestly, I can't.

I cannot even fathom the motives behind its dismantling in the first place.

Regardless, repairing your archaic music storage device would be child's play for a being of twelfth-level intellect such as myself. Yet as circumstances hold, it would be considerably unwise to continue this line of work for free - I've already done that cretin with the digital pet a favour, and I'm down on my last credits.

(The immediate answer to your first query is, of course, someone who does not want the inner workings of their machine (if you could call it that) altered.)

I've more been in the way of searching for any reasonably advanced forms of technology with parts that could be salvaged. There is little need for what most humans consider the base requirements of survivial, attained through the monetary system, in regards to my species. (However, my current position as a squatter in an unused apartment is less than ideal.)

What organization are you affiliated with again?

Having only arrived a few weeks ago, I remain unaffiliated with any organization stationed in this dimension, and I see little point in discussing my life before the rift in time-space potentially erased me from history.

Out of town I see, it's cool we've all been there. Anyway we don't have much. Are you interested in a sentient high definition television?

Appraise me on the capabilities of this 'television'.

Date: 2006-10-07 06:48 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] bitingnightmare.livejournal.com
My guess is it communicates by channeling various frequencies that suit its mood or message. A little hard to translate at times, you can imagine, considering how most TV is shit anyway.

Date: 2006-10-07 07:00 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] 12th-level.livejournal.com
I suppose I will have to analyze the mechanics of the thing myself in order to evaluate the level of its supposed sentience.

Are you certain it is not simply your appauling comprehension of electronics that founds your opinion on the television?

Listen you little shit

Yes, I'm certain. When you're flipping bacon in the morning and Deliverance starts rolling, you know it's not a coincidence.
