Artifact Restoration, Tuesday 2nd Period

[jedigrammarians]

The Danger Shop did not resemble the workshop today, instead looking like some kind of large games room, and Aphra was lounging casually in a way that implied that she certainly hadn't been beating on the controls not thirty seconds before.

"Metaphor time!" Aphra said, far, far, too cheerfully. "Sometime fixing an artifact you've found is more like putting together a puzzle where you not only don't have a picture on the box, but you have no box, and you're not sure you have all the pieces, and there are pieces of something else there too, and halfway through you realise you've been putting it together wrong because it's actually a completely different kind of puzzle. Then it explodes."

She gestured to the table in the middle of the room, which was indeed piled high with a giant heap of puzzle pieces. "So you'll be doing that today. Without that exploding part." Probably.

Library, Wednesday

[era_two_triangle]

The books were actually behaving themselves today, and so Peridot was making use of any of her spare time in the library by looking up the properties of Earth's metals. She wanted something sturdy, but lightweight, and preferably only faintly magnetic...

... Maybe capable of having an antimatter blaster built into it...

Not that she didn't enjoy being short, but she couldn't find the ladder again, and was having one of her 'I really miss my limb enhancers' days. If she could just figure out adequate replacements, maybe a ladder would be entirely unnecessary anyway.

Maybe. Hopefully.

Probably not.
