The Kludge's Guide to the Universe | Dangershop, Wednesday Afternoon (Week 6)

[theharperisgood.livejournal.com]

Harper tapped a control and the virtual workshop expanded in size.

"Now, when you're a mechanical genius like myself," he said without any trace of false modesty. "You'll often be asked to create physics defying contraptions on the fly. Often with parts that are, well, junk. Turning trash into treasure is perhaps your most valuable survival skill. Your job today is to take the parts in this room and create something that might help you survive. No weapons."

"You worry me John, really you do."

John smiles because he thinks that's some kind of compliment. "Seriously, if you, like, fell off a cliff and I was tied to you, I could save you!"

Re: Tinker (Kludge - Wk6)

"Right."

Re: Tinker (Kludge - Wk6)

"You don't think I could?"

Re: Tinker (Kludge - Wk6)

[theharperisgood.livejournal.com]

"I think you'd try."

Re: Tinker (Kludge - Wk6)

"Yep!" And he tugs on the rope again. "But hey, if I failed, we'd go down together!"

Re: Tinker (Kludge - Wk6)

"...did you just come on to me?"

Re: Tinker (Kludge - Wk6)

"What?" John shakes his head. "Hey, no, I don't poach someone else's territory, man."

Re: Tinker (Kludge - Wk6)

"But you tied yourself to me."

Re: Tinker (Kludge - Wk6)

"That is not a metaphor for our relationship," John says quickly. "I've got a girlfriend and you've got a boyfriend."

Re: Tinker (Kludge - Wk6)

Harper started reeling John in towards him. ""Nietzscheans are polyamourous."

Re: Tinker (Kludge - Wk6)

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

John stumbles towards Harper, frowning the whole way. "So, what does that mean? You guys are in an open relationship?"

Re: Tinker (Kludge - Wk6)

[theharperisgood.livejournal.com]

"That an they don't mind joining in."

Re: Tinker (Kludge - Wk6)

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"What?" Oh, he hadn't meant that. "I have a scary girlfriend!"

John flails.

Re: Tinker (Kludge - Wk6)

[theharperisgood.livejournal.com]

"She can join in too."

Re: Tinker (Kludge - Wk6)

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"She doesn't like sharing!" Still flailing, yes.

Re: Tinker (Kludge - Wk6)

[theharperisgood.livejournal.com]

"But you're so...shareable."

Harper let go of the rope.

And that's John's cue to totally untie himself and skitter away.

He hides...in plain sight but it's still hiding.
