Ugh, I never know how to start one of these things.

Is um. Is anyone familiar at all with a robot by the name of Robo-ky? I fixed him up recently and well, I'm not exactly a robot expert, but I think I did okay. If anyone who is more knowledgeable could take a look at him just to be safe though, I'd appreciate it. [...] As a warning, he can be a little hard to deal with so keep that in mind.

...

Actually, while I got this up. Have any of you guys ever noticed how obsolete the journal system is? It looks technologically advanced sure, but as far as a socialized network goes, there were far better ones back where I'm from. What are you supposed to do if someone is harassing you with dozens of filtered messages? Go over to them and beat them to a pulp? Put a paperweight on the journal and hope they go away? There's no way to block communications with a single person.

....and there isn't a precautionary measure put forth for this kind of thing is there? Is everything in this village ran by ear?

Isn't that what people do with some of the filters?

Great! Then I guess take care and I'll see you around.

BUT WHAT IF YOU DIDN'T FIX ME RIGHT!?

--Yeah, I don't exactly approve of the M word. Please watch your usage of it when I'm around.

[Seriously, though. Magic? Not the best friend of an engineering genius.]

Yeah, I know, I was a little skeptical too. But once you meditate and start to listen to the spirits it--

...

I probably sound like a lunatic don't I?

Then I guess you'd fall apart into a junk pile like before...

YOU CAN'T LET THAT HAPPEN!

That stops people from commenting to your entries, but it doesn't stop anyone from making dozens of filtered entries towards you.

This is why the system is obsolete.

Yeah, definitely. I'll talk to you later.

Yeah? Then what do you expect me to do? Patch you up with healing magic? You're a robot. [Well at least.... he doesn't THINK healing magic would work.]

I guess you could just ignore them, but I doubt that'd help much.

Yeah, ignoring is probably what most people would do. Not really the most effective way to handle things though.

[Well. He'd better just start cataloging all of the people who can help repair him in Luceti. Bruce is at the bottom. |:] ... WHO IS YOUR FRIEND?

Yeah, no kidding. Just because you don't say anything doesn't mean they'll stay quiet.

[God, you lost him at "meditate".]

Oh, I wouldn't jump straight to lunatic. Maybe slightly unstable. But lunatic? Well, I'll wait to get to know you better before I call that one--oh, and if you need a therapist, I'm considering it as a hobby. I've already got another taker. What do you think?

His name is Tony Stark. He is a man who specializes in building highly technologically advanced suits of armor. Repairing robots should come like second nature to him.

Yeah. As tempting as that sounds I'm unfortunately going to have to pass.

If you're not planning on using magic then I guess you're going to try to wait on the material to appear in the shops? Or is this new special suit top secret?

People rarely follow rules religiously. At least not where I come from. If anything poking holes in systems and rules is exactly what a lot of people in my world specialize in.

[We'll see. You'll come around eventually.]

You know, as much as I love the idea of being eavesdropped on by the Malnosso, I'm not entirely sure it's in anyone's best interest to share my ideas over this network.

[That, and much of his research so far has come up short, which is exceedingly frustrating.]

Are you having a problem with someone?

Oh, no actually. Simply hypothetical.

ARMOR? [Armor is nothing like robots, man. What are you on?] HOW IS ARMOR ANYTHING LIKE REPAIRING A COMPLICATED PIECE OF TECHNOLOGY LIKE MYSELF?

Hn. Well, I think some of the people could devise something like that if you ever need it.

Yeah? Then what exactly should we worry about?

[Considering she's been here for what seems like FOREVER and no one seems to be able to do much of anything anyway.]

Well, sometimes it pays to break the system. At least a little.
