Sparky Repairs, Wednesday

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

Teddy was tired. After the party and the... after-party last night, he was dead on his feet.

He flopped over on the counter and promptly fell asleep. Emo was nudging him in an attempt to get him to wake up, but it wasn't working so far.


Sparky's is open and asleep.

Jane wandered into the store.

"...You look like shit."

So congenial, is Jane.

Teddy lifted his head and blinked a few times before yawning. "Late night." He stood up straight and stretched. Ow, back.

"Can I help you?"

[courtincalamity.livejournal.com]

"Hope you had more fun last night then you are this morning." Jane said as she came up to the counter.

"I don't suppose you guys invent stuff here besides repairing it?"

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

A brief, stupid grin was the response to having fun last night. He shook his head to get rid of nice Chad images.

"Uh, yeah. Agatha builds stuff on request."

Ooohkay, obviously, the kid had a considerably better time last night.

"All and Sundries needs a new Squishy Machine. The last one was chopped nearly in fucking half. I got the manual and the technical papers here but if she wants to see what's left of the contraption or salvage it for spare parts? We're gonna have to work something out because it's too fucking heavy for any of us to move..."

She'd really like to get it out of the store actually, Apu might stop bursting into tears randomly and burning that stupid incense for it.

"I can carry it over here if you guys want."

Lifting heavy things, it was a hell of a lot easier than fixing them.

"Turtle had me take a look at it last week, and I don't know if we can salvage much." And he just had to ask. "How did you get knife marks on the inside of it?"

[courtincalamity.livejournal.com]

"If you can lift it... MoreI don't fucking know, I wasn't there, Apu was in the back. The only one who saw it was the metal dog, and she don't speak fucking English, chased off whoever did it before they could do any more damage."

Agatha poked her head into the room, curious about the swearing. "What's up Teddy?"

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

"The Squishie machine over at All & Sundries is, um, dead."

He looked at Jane, "This is Agatha, she'll be able to tell you more about maybe building a new one for you."

[heterodine.livejournal.com]

"What in the world is a Squishy machine?"

[courtincalamity.livejournal.com]

[[ooc: Oops make that "MoreI don't" into "More power to you. I don't..."]]

"Would you be Agatha then?"

[heterodine.livejournal.com]

"Yup. nice to meetcha. What is a squishy machine?"

[courtincalamity.livejournal.com]

"Jane, nice to meet you too." she said nodding. "A squishy machine is a contraption that takes a sweet flavored drink and keeps it at a certain temperature until a customer dispenses it. It's got a weird consistency, not exactly frozen, but not liquid... kinda like shaved ice... But not..."

She doesn't think she's explaining it properly.

"I don't fucking know how it does it, there's a thing that spins and keeps it cold... I got technical papers here for you to see if you like."

[heterodine.livejournal.com]

"sure, let me see what i can figure out. Teddy, think you could go with this nice lady and bring the broken machine back?" Agatha starts glancing through the manual.

[ooc: k. what do you want it to do (other then make squishies)? want it to refill itself? talk? change flavors randomly? shoot lasers?]

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

"No problem." He grinned at Jane. "Ready whenever you are."

[courtincalamity.livejournal.com]

"Great. right this way (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomtownies/1375596.html)."

He needed cleaning supplies for his gun and parts. The pirate had checked it out to go shooting this morning and found the antique shotgun covered in the remnants of pie.

Balthier was really begining to hate pie.

Looking over, he noticed Teddy in the shop and headed into the counter. "I don't suppose you have weapon supplies?" He asked giving the blond a once over. "You look like hell."

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

"Lack of sleep from the party," Teddy said, yawning. "Guns?"

He looked at Emo questioningly and the little robot just shrugged in reply. "I don't think we do."

[heterodine.livejournal.com]

"We have all kinds of supplies" came a voice from the back room and Agatha emerged, wiping her hands on her welding apron.

[strahl-pirate.livejournal.com]

"Hmmm," He puzzled. "I just need parts and cleaning supplies for it." Balthier looked un amused. "It was covered in bits of pie when I checked it out this morning."


[Sorry for the late reponse. I had a doctors appointment]

[heterodine.livejournal.com]

"We should be able to provide that. Good afternoon, i am Agatha, i own this place." She extended her hand out to him.

[strahl-pirate.livejournal.com]

Balthier gave her hand a firm shake. "A pleasure Agitha." He said pulling out a small list of supplies and handed it to her. "These are the things I need."

[heterodine.livejournal.com]

"Hmmm" Agatha looked over the list "I think i can get most of these to you, though i would have to special order some of this."

[strahl-pirate.livejournal.com]

"All right," Balthier nodded. "Do you have an idea on how long?" He wasn't over worried about cash, he had plenty of gil that he could change over to the local currency.

[heterodine.livejournal.com]

"About a week i think." she glanced at the list again. "Next wendesday i think."

[strahl-pirate.livejournal.com]

Balthier winced but nodded, there was really nothing he could do about it. "All right, I will return then."
