maskormenace | Video - Cleaning house & Neo Tokyo

[The video feed comes on with Daryl real close to the camera as he sets it down on a shelf at about eye chin level. High enough that when he walks away it allows for a very wide shot of the inside of a garage.

A large, mechanical tiger that was easily recognized as one of the imPocreates (a blickablake), but who had been obviously and heavily customized, prowled around behind Daryl for a second before leaning into the back of his legs like a real cat would and letting out a mechanized purr.]

Sorry if Fubuki here's been running people off. Thought she was getting a home with someone, but anytime I tell her to go to her new place, she just settles down in the corner. Did ya just decide against it or what?

Anyway, anyone who was having work done at Neo Tokyo before the porter got Tetsuo a couple months back, you can come back to the shop if you want. I'm getting some locals who do good work hired in to take over. Shop'll return to Kaneda or Tetsuo's control if they get ported back in, but unless that happens, it'll be in my hands. And if I get ported out, it'll go to the people I hire so it won't be shutting down unexpectedly again.

[The tiger headbutted Daryl affectionately and nearly knocked him on his ass.]

Okay, I get it, ya like me. Shit.

[He pushed at her head and she sat down, eyes blinking slowly and tail sliding against the floor in a lazy motion. Instead of standing back up, Daryl stayed where he was in case she decided to nuzzle him again.]

The shop's a motorcycle shop. Specializes in custom models and mostly Japanese imports. Racing bikes especially. Top of the line stuff. It's in Nonah.

Cute pet. But it might ruin your image and expose you as a secret softie.

Pfft.

[That might be a hint of a blush on his cheeks, but if it is, he's pretty good at hiding it as he turns his head away and pushes against the metal tiger again.]

She ain't mine. Was talkin' ta someone not that long ago that said a kid was interested in taking her in. Not sure what happened there.

[He should probably check in with her, but as long as Fubuki wasn't being a pain in the ass, then she could stick around the garage for a bit.]

Does she know that?

[Doesn't seem like it.]

You could think of it as an opportunity. Make her your mascot.

Rather make sure she gets a nice home somewhere with someone who does have the time for her. Not that I mind her, just... she's a lot to care for and I already got a lot ta care for.

[Daryl absently started to pet the tiger like she was a real cat and Fubuki happily leaned her head into it before gently collapsing so her head was in his lap. He huffed and scratched at her chin.]

Great. Now I'm stuck.

[This is adorable. Is there a record and export function on this thing? She really wants to keep it.]

Yeaaah, she definitely owns you. See, this is why I don't have a cat. I'd never get anywhere on my own schedule.

I got three cats at my house, you know. And two ravens. And a fish. Two of the cats and the fist came from the same asshole that left this big asshole laying around the garage scaring people.

The only two I asked for were the birds.

[Lies. Sort of. When he found out there were pets left from Tetsuo, he volunteered to take them in 'cause Tetsuo was family. Felt obligated to.]

I'm just impressed that the cats don't try to make dinner of the birds and the fish.

I might be in the market for some kind of speeder bike. Something fast and efficient, for the right price.

We can do custom builds, but you'll be paying premium for it. What kind of specs are you looking at? And is this gonna be one with wheels on the ground or a hover-bike? I can probably quote ya the first, but the second'll have to wait until I get the locals set up. I don't touch the hover-tech.

Like I said, if it's fast and it works without breaking down at a crucial time, then that will do for now. I just want some more convenient transportation. You got anything like that readily available?

Oh, she's magnificent. And seems to really like you.

She's Tetsuo's. He's left and come back before so I'm hopin' that'll happen again. Cain't never count on it, though. She only likes me cause she's been programmed to.

[He knew that, and yet, he still had a very soft spot in his heart for the stupid robot cat as it laid it's head down on his lap and encouraged some chin scritchings.]

I feel that you have the kind of energy that would make animals, especially the type of her wild cousins, to like you.

[ Maeve sighs. ]

We tried. I introduced her to Blue and Red. But unfortunately, she would not leave with him.

Tetsuo programmed her to be pretty damn fickle. Which one was supposed to get her?

Blue is the one who took the interest. And seemed a bit disappointed by the result.

He seem like an okay guy? If he is, I can give him a call.

Oh, he's a bit obnoxious. But despite all of that, he has a good heart. He really seemed concerned for Fubuki when she did not want to come moreso than upset that she rejected him.
