Mark I || Action

[Well, if this isn't the cherry to top off this shit-sundae, Tony doesn't know what is. He's a veritable orphan and yet the prodigal son, is thisclose to a double PhD which he could use to finally escape his name and make a better one, when lo and behold... he's sentenced to indefinite probation at a summer camp. In December. Because of his father. Sperm donor. Whatever.

Merry freaking Christmas.

He elected to postpone any kind of tour and all too soon, and still completely unprepared, found himself at his cabin. With his... siblings. And he can still barely suppress the painful feeling that punched him in the gut the moment he arrived.

This feels like home.

Instead of just embracing the feeling, of course, he's fighting it and off on his own, brooding. As has become habit the past few days. He has some graph paper and a pen and is pretty consistently either sketching or staring off into space.]


{Tony can be found in the Hephaestus cabin, around the cabin, and possibly down by the lake. Wherever it would make sense to sulk for a bit while he sorts out his brain-space and stifles down the unsettling feelings of both belonging and repulsion. Not to mention ignoring exactly what day it is.}

*Especially since your calculations would be wrong as she's much heavier than she looks.*

I usually think arm mounted. The problem is my fingers are too delicate to support a weapon's system, and it would be bad if I damaged any of the mechanisms in my hands.

It would take Leo a lot of time to fix that.

[He just takes all of that in, piecing the information together to ponder at a better time. He'd heard talk of automatons, so it wasn't a complete shock. The absolute life-like-ness though, that was amazing.]

Fair enough. Retractable arm or shoulder mount, something you couldn't accidentally shoot yourself with if multi-tasking, and it wouldn't constantly get caught on things if you didn't need it.

*Sky stared at her arm for a few moments. Math dancing in that little metal skull of her's as she thinks about how to make that work.*

Arm allows for the most ease of motion and aiming. There should be enough room for a low power weapon. Not sure how it would impact the strength of my arm.

But I really like this arm, so I'm not sure if I want to replace it with something concealing a weapon.

How hard is it to swap out limbs?

[He asks matter-of-factly, and is genuinely curious. If there's a way to make the process simpler, she could have a plethora to choose from, based on the occasion. However, given her life-like appearance, he doubts there's a quick solution to be found.]

There are... sensitive enchantments worked into me. They mostly let me feel sensations like humans do. It would take a lot of work to remove and reattach them if replacing any part of my body.

It can be done, but it isn't easy. Not... like I was a car, and you could replace a tire.
