[ who said anything about saying hi. he just wanted to come enter this staring contest. anyway he doesn't hate being called Callsign Nonagon and his emotions are fairly passive about that. If anything it verges on approval. ]
[ okay, well, in a moment that's much less deranged-cult-leader and is absolutely more immature-and-prone-to-tomfoolery there's a definite sense of amusement at both the adorable little can and also lubricated. sorry! ]
[ They will pull up the schematic of the weaponry and the mechanical arm stuff. It will show the spots that need a leaky leak. The wall dividing them between space and safety props open a seamless panel to show the machinations inside. The digital panel here says MAINTENANCE MODE, safe for the lubing. ]
[ he will be more interested in the schematic than anything. some of it might not make sense, but some of it might. he wants to know the type of weapon it is. ]
[ It is a directed-energy weapon, but to give it a shape the schematic looks like it's just a giant sci-fi gun with two barrels to shoot out of. It is on the horse carriage size of weaponry, embedded into the ship wall and stuff. ]
[ oooooOooooOOOOuuough he wants to shoot it so bad. is it possible to touch? sorry that he has the personality of a wretched cat and has to bat everything with his paws. ]
[ it is further into the wall past the other sci-fi wires and stuff, but Lucien can touch it. It is smooth and cold to the touch. Callisto will be watching like a hawk, even though they have little attachment to guns. ]
[ Maintenance mode is like a safety lock, so all is okay. Callisto is just cagey. There is a sight and the spot where someone would manually control it looks unused. ]
Not during my time in space, but they can still be out there.
[ In the muted emotions there is a small genuine fear of the unknown. ]
[ the thought: `I thought your joke was a little funny, actually.` comes across, quickly followed by `sew your mouth closed or I'll rend you from existence, speck.` so that's probably super normal.
[ just the two voices. he was only allowed to bring one item after all. :) the argument is seemingly one-sided and mostly over after the brief spat, the less-accented voice seems not inclined to respond to threats of violence. ]
... Well now you're peekin', my friend.
[ in a hushed, amused whisper of a thought: `ceaseless watcher, turn your gaze upon this wretched thing.` ]
[ Well, Callisto decides the threatening thought voice is detestable and they don't like it. ]
That seems annoying. [ To clarify on the gun, so Lucien doesn't think there was approval. ] There is no reason for you to shoot it right now. We rely on automatic before manual.
[ what, callisto has never had self-deprecating thoughts before? no little voice in their head that recalls embarrassing moments or tells you to grab the gun out of the policeman's belt that you have to tell to shut up because it's the most annoying voice you've ever heard? ]
Not exactly the point ... [ he knows callisto isn't going to go for this. but he has a defiant personality disorder so he's going to ask anyway. ] The reason is that it seems better relief than drinking myself silly.

Are you familiar with calibrating directed-energy weapons?

The simulation room is too far. [ So hands-on, lets go! ] The joints need to be lubricated, then the target and tracking sensors recalibrated.
[ They take out of nowhere an oiling can... That looks very animal crossing with a little sunflower on the tin. ]
no subject
I see. Lubrication is important.
no subject
For optimal movement, yes.

Have you not considered... [ They are thinking. ] ... Video... Games...
[ Said like it is a very foreign thing to them. ]
