[Millitimed to yesterday: Alyx pays a visit to the Wells household and does a few odd jobs.]

We hope you weren't looking to sit at that one extremely well-lit table right in the middle of the room. It's currently covered with papers, on which a shabbily dressed Afro-Asian woman is scribbling furiously. Her handwriting and drafting skills leave something to be desired, but anyone who bothers to look at them will find sketches of cameras, electrical diagrams, and a floor plan with a house and various outbuildings.

Dare you ask what she's working on?

In a bit, Mother won't need to ask, since he's looking over her shoulder with a look of only mild curiousity that turns to recognition.

"Nice security design."

Yeh, it's the crazy man, and look, he's waving genially at you. He also looks like he's spent the last 6 days in the garage and has forgotten to wash his clothes, judging from the burnt marks, the grease and the smell.

He's mostly harmless.

"Haven't got much intel yet regarding my world, but I saw the electrical design for the surveillance camera batteries and thought I'd say hi."

Approving nod from the conspiracy nut.

"Nice, I didn't know that you could earn money doing stuff like that here." If he had known, he'dve tried picking up this gig. Eh.

Alyx looks like she needs the cash more.

"You ever get a chance to, I'd reccomend seeing if you can get a couple of BE Meyers 301 Stealth cameras. They're a good price for their capabilities, and they've got a decent range for a camera, if money is no expense to whoever you're helping."

"Really?" Hunh, if she can do work like that...

"How long would it take you to cobble up something similar to the 301 Stealth?"

"Good evening." Ryu is there, with a sports bag in hand. "How are you?"

[identity profile] falconryu.livejournal.com 2008-10-14 03:04 pm (UTC)(link)
"Part of it." He nods, opening the bag and handing her the shock truncheon. "I brought a few of those from Tairon... the demon worshippers' city. You flick the switch, it charges up in a purple electric glow and delivers crusing force and shock."

Ryu nods. "The base of the handle unscrews open and a power cell is inside." Good, someone who takes basic precautions, Alyx just scored some points.

Teja notices her when he walks into the bar from the outside, this night, and wanders over to greet her.

"Greetings," he says. "I have your crowbar ready."
ostro_goth: (Almost amused)

[personal profile] ostro_goth 2008-10-14 06:38 pm (UTC)(link)
"I do not walk about with weapons not my own over my shoulder, as a rule," Teja says. "It is in the forge: - I was going to leave you a message, but we might collect it now."

"Good," Teja says, turning around and walking back towards the back door.

His evening meal can wait a few moments longer.

There's a nearby voice saying "...alyx?" Then there's a rush of displaced air and a Jennifer shouting "ALYX!"

Jennifer looks suitably abashed (sadly, she has no "suitably abashed" icons, just "nova-next-door" and "persecuted pre-Aberrant" icons). "Oops! Sorry!" She deglomps Alyx and grabs the nearest papers. "Still, at least you're all right. Well, you were before I came barging in anyway. I hope Gordon knows?"

Blush. "Knows that you're back, silly!" She considers that for a moment. "But if you're going to tell him about the knocking over, I'll take my lumps like a grown woman."
