Third Egg: Fetching the pieces

[giant_talking_egg]

Who: Eggman and anyone
Where: Plaza
When:  Early morning to late afternoon.
Status: Open~

[The Doctor had been quiet for quite some time thanks to that curse. He thoughts of conquering the city would have been revealed, so he had to lay low. So in the mean time, he figured he might as well fix up the Eggmobile and create different attachments for it. So far, he had brought back an old favorite of his, the Egg Walker. As a matter of fact, he's using the machine now. After marching it all the way to the plaza, he hops out of the machine and grins from ear to ear.]

There, perfect! Just like she was before that little incident. I'm a genius, if I do say so myself.

[So anyone in the plaza will have be greeted by the good doctor looking over his craftsmanship and giving himself a few pats on the back. Feel free to nag him.]

... Huh.

*Dr. Robotnik? Have what a female, teenage version of you who never ate enough food - ever - might look like, looking at your robot with some interest.*

I wonder what kind of formula could power this...

*She also seems to be ignoring Robotnik entirely.*

[giant_talking_egg]

[Why hello there]

Oh? Taking an interest in the machine?

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

Kinda. I'm wondering what scale of formula could actually power it, though. Mana-based formulas aren't usually too good at maintaining a sustainable charge, and you'd need a blastia core about the size of that seat to power such a heavy machine if you used a blastia-based formula.

[giant_talking_egg]

I'm not sure I follow. Those types of power sources aren't exactly easy to find where I'm from. If existent at all.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

Ah.

So it's something different, then. I shoulda figured as much. If we were talking either of those types of formulas, I'd already have figured out how it works.

So what is the basis, then?

Problem playing scientsts: explaining how their stuff works ;W;

[giant_talking_egg]

In a nutshell, electricity. It has its own high powered motor that allows it to move, as well as a generator that takes particles from the air, super charges them, then uses said energy to sustain itself and the mech.

The key is technobabble

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

Huh. You were able to make the supercharging process efficient enough as to produce more power than it needed, then? Someone back home had only been able to make it even somewhat efficient via some pretty tricky chemicals...

...so just BS everything as long as it sounds somewhat logical?

[giant_talking_egg]

Well, I've had years of experience in my field as well as lots of time on my hands to test my inventions.

However, this is by far one of my better designs, at least where power is concerned.

Pretty much!

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

Huh. Guess I can see that, with the kind of development time you'd have had.

Makes me wonder how far I'll be able to go with Mana-based formulas over time.

Re: Pretty much!

[giant_talking_egg]

Pretty far, I would assume, if they are as powerful as you say.

Re: Pretty much!

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

Just gotta let a genius do their work, right?

[giant_talking_egg]

Exactly! See, now you're getting it.

[STOP IT, YOU'LL MELT HIS EVIL HEART D:]

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

... Someday, here, I'd be very interested in trading notes, actually.

Oddly, both Aer-based Blastia formulas and Mana-based formulas work here, so you might find them useful.

[giant_talking_egg]

Ah, of course. I'm always looking for new power sources, so I'd be happy to share notes with you.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

... Mind I'd probably best get some fuller notes together first.

Why couldn't this place have brought some of my lab with me?

Sorry about being late.

[giant_talking_egg]

That is fine, take as much time as you need.

[A melodramatic sigh.]

I'm with you there. I do miss the mine own lab as well.

Re: Sorry about being late.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

Yeah. I hear I can get some stuff from some shops somewhere here, but even that's only going to do so much. Especially if I can't find work.

[giant_talking_egg]

You could always try selling off your inventions. I've been doing that and it worked out well.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

Problem there's getting enough together to finish some.

[giant_talking_egg]

I suppose so.

This place has put us at a disadvantage. Have you tried the scrap yard? You should fine some good parts there.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

... Good idea.

I'll have to try that, thank you.

[giant_talking_egg]

It is not a problem. I was hoping to find other methods, myself, but the scrapyard has been a godsend.
