(Michael and Julieta, in their respective Thunderbolt
and Reginlaze
armours are currently sifting through a wreckage site near the river that H.E.R.B.I.E. suggested earlier
for salvageable parts. It's a pretty slow process, all things considered.)
Caulifla's dull eyes widen, though it isn't due to the program. She looks to the side to spot the robotic detective, then towards Kale (who is equally on edge). Then Caulifla feels the rumble again, slumping down to the ground as Kale rises in shock.
"The hell are y'ah doin', Finhead?" Caulifla replies casually with a smirk.
Not sure if you want my involvement. Otherwise, ignore this.
The site itself is quite an interesting location. Old shipping hulls, plane parts, and some odd power generators galore resting beside a river undisturbed. Seemingly, anyway (excluding H.E.R.B.I.E earlier encounter with the site). This place may have some unusual history tidbits. Speaking off H.E.R.B.I.E, the little drone himself decides to surprise the two soldiers with a tag along.
"Mr. Michael, Ms. Julieta and Ms. Zoldark," H.E.R.B.I.E announces. "My Presence Here Is To Prove Any Assistance In Locating Materials Within This...Possibly Viotile Area. Master Richards Is Currently Working On The Coding As We Speak. However, My Tethering Capabilities To Track His Progress Can Only Go So Far."
(Julieta looks up at the small robot, that creepy-as-hell monocle scanning H.E.R.B.I.E. briefly before continuing) You could have just radioed us, you know.
(Michael, on the other hand, is using his beam sabre to cut open a hole in one of the warped ship hulls before peering inside with his helmet-mounted lights activated. That is, he would be if he didn't get distracted with H.E.R.B.I.E's arrival.) The coding? Is he experienced enough to do that?

(@Caulifla) (shaking the couch) There's a war going on today, I think. I hope Null doesn't find out I'm missing.
(@Kale) Greetings. How are you doing today?
Forest
(Lune stuffs as many parts as she can into her bag. She's making a lot of progress so far.)
(@H.E.R.B.I.E) 'Sup, Herbie. Glad to you're here to make sure the info you gave out was correct. (gives the robot an A-OK gesture.)

"Seriously, the Gods? Ugh, if they get into The Room, I'll fight." Caulifla gets back on her feet as she looks out the window. So far, she only notices the dimming outside. Still, in any case, she opts to do some light stretches. "Are you a superhero or somethin', Finhead? Do your job."
Kale merely waves back at Gesicht as she tries to keep her composure. "I'm...I'm doing...fine."
"I believe Ms. Zoldark Proved A Reasonable Rephrasal Of My Rational, Ms. Julieta." H.E.R.B.I.E explains. "In Addition To Master Richards' Insistant That": "I care about them enough to loan a butler." Vocal Dissonance aisde, the little drone follows behind Michael's lead with his own headlight.
"Master Richards, Despite His...Admittedly Childish, laid back Persona, Has Been Taught By Some Of The Very Best Tutors, Naturally Including His Own Parents." H.E.R.B.I.E, using his itty bitty pointer laser pointer finger, points out a reusable power generator mounted to the wall. "Like His Younger Sister, He's Shown To Be Very Competent. Personally, I Trust Him, Though That May Attribute To Mere Family Bias."

(@Caulifla) (rolling his eyes) Alright! (crawls from under the couch, stopping the shaking) Alright! I'll do my job! (heads towards the Null and Hellfire fight)
(@Kale) Ah. What are you watching?
Wreck Site
(@H.E.R.B.I.E.) (gathering more parts) So, he's pretty clever? I might have to learn from his teachers, then.

(Michael moves carefully near the generator, looking for the power couplings so as to disconnect them safely.) His parents must have a lot of influence to do that much for Franklin and his sister, then.
(from outside) Like yours, Sir Tapferin?
Maybe. But who am I to say about them if we're worlds apart from them?

"We all fail. We all make mistakes. That is what makes us human."

Caulifla's usually known for a battle-craving and bossy tomboy, but for now, she's allowing her softer elements to reveal themselves: mainly lounging around as she watches Kale become surprisingly enthralled in some edutainment block on T.V (even using some leftover paper and pencils to follow along). Not quite a usual teaching tool back home, but Caulifla didn't mind if Kale seems content.
"Y'ah know, Keeru-san, this ain't half bad. Could always use another countin' our gains back home. Let me know if y'ah get stuck or somethin'."
Kale nods blushingly as she returns back to the T.V. Though, at the same time, the timid Saiyan could feel as if something is crawling on her back. Didn't help that outside is dimming already, despite being the daytime?
