Sparky Repairs, Tuesday

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

Teddy spent half the day in the back of the store, looking for green christmas lights. He was sure they were back there and wasn't gong to give up easily.

After the quick addition of Santa hats made from tinfoil and some conveniently placed paint, Emo and Goth were in the from, looking very cheerful. They should go get him if a customer showed up, but the hats seemed to be distracting.

Sparky's is open!

After finishing up in the junkyard, Walter stopped by Sparky to see whether Nadia's present would actually be feasible, since he hadn't seen Agatha in quite some time.

The bots in Santa hats earned a smirk.

Agatha just happened to walk into the downstairs area at th at time. She was looking disapprovingly at the ever increasing Christmas decorations.

Teddy waved cheerfully at Agatha and ducked back into the back room, letting her deal with the customer,

"Miss Clay!" Walter smiled at Agatha, not having expected to see her. "Just the person I wanted to see."

Agatha turned just in time to see Walter.

"Walter, always a pleasure. How are things with you?"

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

"They're well, thank you. You know how it is around here - the occasional invasion, bouts of emo, and general insanity." Walter grinned a little. "I haven't seen you in quite some time, how are you?"

[heterodine.livejournal.com]

Agatha looked around. "Yes i noticed the invasions and such. John keeps insisting on getting hurt. I think he is just shirking work, honestly." She smiled. "I was away for a while, several years really, but it seemed only a month here. But i am back now."

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

That was a familiar story. "Nadia, who is the reason I'm here today actually, had something similar happen to her over the summer. She was away for five days as far as we knew, but a year for her."

He had certainly made a mess of things then, too.

"I have come to the conclusion that thinking about time flow makes my head hurt. Seeing another me from my future did not help." She shook her head. THAT was not a fun experience at all. But then, neither was anything at all that happened back in Europa Wulfenbach.

"How is Nadia? I haven't seen her around since i had been back, but John tells me she was kidnapped by some bad people. I think that was the first time he got injured." Though she did not roll her eyes, the eyeroll at John was there in her voice.

"She's had a rough go of it the past few months," Walter said, nodding. "She's tough, though, and she has people to help her if she'll just take it."

[heterodine.livejournal.com]

More nodding. "I hope she does then, good friends are hard to find."

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

"She has a lot of us here," Walter agreed. "At any rate, I'm here because of her. Do you remember the multi-tool that Blair had you make for her earlier this year?"

Oh, wait. She said she'd been gone for years. Well, he'd just have to see.

It had been awhile. Agatha didn't remember everything she had ever made, but she did keep blueprints. If John hadn't tossed them of course.

"No, but hang on." She rummaged behind the counter, rolled up paper flying everywhere. Finally with an "AHA!" Agatha emerged, and rolled out the blueprints for the tool*that the mun is too lazy and too work-busy to go find in the archives*

"What about it?"

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

"Can you make another? Before Christmas?" Walter asked. "She had to leave the other one in Argentina, and I think she misses it."

[heterodine.livejournal.com]

"Hmm... I think so. If John doesn't injure himself any further and thus can do his job, i should be free to finish it by..." she pondered "...next week. Wednesday i think."

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

"Brilliant!" Walter beamed at her. "Thank you very much. I'll see if I can help keep John from getting hurt in that case."

[heterodine.livejournal.com]

"Excellent." Agatha grinned. Keeping John unhurt was always a good thing. "Just drop by in the morning on Wednesday and it should be all set."

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

"Thank you very much, Miss Clay. I'll see you then."

There may have ben some crashing noises and a startled yelp from the back of the store as Emo went back to find Teddy.

Teddy poked his head out of the backroom and blinked a few times to get used to the lights again. He really needed the twins to get him those sunglasses.

"Hello?"

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

Walter nodded to Teddy. "I'm here to see about a gift for Nadia. Miss Clay made something for her early this year," by Walter's timeline, at least, "that she had to leave in Argentina, so I'm going to see about a replacement."
