"--No, I'm fine.

"No, seriously, I am perfectly happy with my current body. Form. Whatever.

". . . Well, okay, yeah, the big smashy claw is kind of awesome. --But  mean, no, I'm fine.

"Well, okay, I'll take a look at it."

Tom takes his copy of Our Bodies, Ourselves, Our Cybernetic Arms, only a little dubious, and starts for a chair -- and turns around and trots back to Bar.

"Wait wait sorry I'm a dumbass. Can you give a copy of this note to, um, Shaun, Andrew, Elle, and Hawkgirl? Thanks."

(The note reads Let's do this Saturday. --Tom. All the other phrasings he came up with sounded even more like he was asking them to dinner and a movie. Way too awkward.)

That done, he heads for a table and sits down to flip through the book, distractedly. Saturday is -- not that far away.

They issued those to us to use in high energy labs and other hazardous environments, like the toxic zones and the on-site reactors. Normally there's a helmet, but mine got crushed early on."
