Anyway.

It's going to be important to keep this old thing.

-looks at the old chassis-

I'll have to explain to Digs...

-seems to remember something- If I can repair him.

That I'm still the same "Manager" as always. Just in a new body.

I-if you need things to repair, j-just ask.

-shakes his head-

No, that won't be necessary.

Besides.

Digs is back at the Junkyard.

W-who is Digs?

A mining Robot that I managed to repair, and bring online.

With... minor AI glitches.

...D-describe minor.

Oh, boy where do I begin?

He's a an annoying moron, with an obsession with digging.

He believes all problems can be solved with digging a hole in the ground.

And he will make his logic incredibly convoluted in order to justify this step.

Oh- and the word dig appears, as common as if it's punctuation.

...A-annoying, very likely.

Believe me, it was charming at first.

But it gets old very fast when he's your only company in a Junkyard.

I kind of would want it to have stayed that way...

Not to mention, now- I think I have an urgent need for this place to do what it does and bring me back.

Because I might've pissed off the Liandri Mining Corporation.

T-they are not happy you are here?

No, not that.

I might've tried hacking into their systems when I got bored.

They didn't respond well to the idea of another rogue and independent system.

Not to mention, one that managed to hack into their systems.

They tracked my signal, and a force was dispatched to attack my Junkyard.

...A-are they here?

Not currently, no.

Though with their resources.

They might try something.

Though considering this pile of junk here -points to the old chassis- managed to fight off what seemed like one of their sleekiest of the sleek models of robot, I don't think they're going to have a chance.

L-likey, y-yes.

Though they'll probably try making another move on the Junkyard.

Digs isn't in an operational state, so they might ignore him.

They did inflict a lot of damage on us.

It's true. -looks at his old chassis- That's where most of the damage came from.

Actually forced me into safe-mode.

W-what are they using, if you don't m-mind me asking?

... Guns?

-Tallis is still walking-

A-anything else?

Not really.

-shrugs-

I used a bathtub.

...Bath...tub?

Yes.

I am an expert at throwing bathtubs.

And apparently- this served me well in combat.

Fucker didn't know it was coming.

I had a thousand of those things.

-the expression on her face right now-

-can only be explained as awe and utter disbelief-

-shrugs-

Can't prepare for something you don't expect, right?

The sleek called itself Representative Richard.

It was a real- One-man army deal.

But apparently in all it's combat experience, it has never had to deal with a bath-tub being thrown at it.

M-most of time, bath tub is stationary piece of b-bathroom appliance...n-not...projectile.
