[Powers and not a cyborg? That's just weird, still the cat was out of the bag now, there was no point denying it really.

He shrugs.]

Well, I'm not a machine, but I guess that makes sense.

And..yeah, it's got something to do with that. It's complicated. My friend's tried to show me some video games, but they're newer than these and I never got a chance to try ones like this.

My turn. If you're not a cyborg, how do you have powers?

[fundemetal]

[Leo nods.]

I'm a demigod. Half mortal, half Greek god. My dad Hephaestus is the god of fire, forges, blacksmiths, technology, craftsmen, sculptors and volcanoes. So that's where my powers come from.

[fallenstar]

[He smirked a bit at that.]

The last time I met people calling themselves gods or demigods, they were cyborgs too who'd been brainwashed into thinking they were Greek gods.
I'll trust you're not one of those though, since that was a special circumstance.

Does this 'way with machines' include being able to fix them?

[fundemetal]

Yeah. I'm definitely not a cyborg.

I can fix them or build them from scratch. [Confident smile. With actual confidence. Not the manufactured kind.]

[fallenstar]

Yeah? So you think you'd be able to handle mechanics that act as organic things or are even mixed with organic things?

Hypothetically.

[Not that he didn't trust Dirk, but what if something happened and Dirk couldn't help him? It wasn't such a bad thing to have options when it came to repairs, right? Especially with how prone Jet himself was to finding exactly the wrong place to stand in a fight.]

[fundemetal]

Making something that acts organically would be a small challenge. But I could do it. I'm not sure about the mixed part. I've never tried working with anything that wasn't fully mechanical or inanimate. And I'm not a surgeon. [He pauses to think. After a moment he looks like a light bulb has gone off over his head.] But I think I know just the guy - or rather troll - that has lots of experience with it.

[fallenstar]

I'm only curious cause sometimes parts go wrong and the guy I usually turn to isn't here. I don't even know if he'll ever show up either, so I need options.

What's this other guy's name? And...what's a 'troll?'

[fundemetal]

There's a lot of people here that are good with mechanical things. I don't think you'll find any shortage of help if it's needed.

His name's Equius. And a troll is an alien with grey skin and candy corn colored horns. There's a bunch of them here. They're a little hard to miss. I'm sure you'll meet one soon enough.
