"To my base? About 50 feet away."
-
Alright, alright. I can walk fifty feet. [b]He pulls his legs away from you and stands up, slightly unsteady at first[/b]
-
[b][i]He supports you, helping you over.[/i][/b] "I think you need some water. Cmon, I've purified some."
-
Considering I haven't had any in... Two? Three days? Probably.
-
[b][i]As they get there, he puts you down on a wall, and gets you a cup of water. It's a normal steel cup, but it does its job.[/i][/b]
-
[b]He downs it all, a bit dribbling down his chin[/b] Much better.
-
"I've got some more, so enjoy it, don't scarf."
-
[b]He chuckles[/b] I'm not looking to enjoy it, I'm looking to not die.
-
"Still, savour it. Later I have a favour to ask you."
-
[b]He picks himself up, still leaning up against the wall[/b] Well, ask me now. This planet isn't safe last I heard. Dunno how long we'll live.

[b][i]He opens a duffle bag, revealing what looks like a harness, with tubes and a liquid in them.[/i][/b] "I need you to hook this up to me. It's a strength booster. don't ask how I got it."
-
[b]He scowls[/b] I won't ask how you got it, but I'm not just hooking a mysterious device up to you without a bit of information.

"It's a prototype design I snagged back in an old base raid. I fought a guy using one and it enhances strength, speed, the works. The only problem is it connects to the nerves, so not the least painful thing. It'll be fine. I can take it off whenever I please."
-
[b]He scowls again and starts rummaging through his bag, and pulls out a small ready to use syringe, offering it to you[/b] The slightest thing goes wrong, you inject this into yourself.
-
"Got it. What is it?"
-
It'll knock you unconscious, and someone will have to take that [i]thing[/i] off. Now hold still, this isn't gonna feel pleasant [b]He picks up the contraption, examining it[/b]
-
[b][i]It looks amidst like a thin Exo suit, with tubes that connect to veins via a needle. He pulls out a blue paper.[/i][/b] "This shows you where to put it in."
-
[b]He begins to hook it up to you[/b]
-
[b][i]Jakob grimaces in pain, but doesn't move while it happens.[/i][/b]
-
There, finished. Try it on I suppose.
-
[b][i]Jakob stands up, and three tubes connect from his usual armour into his arms, legs, and most uncomfortably, his neck.[/i][/b] "Well, that sucked a little bit."
-
[b]Nobody snickers[/b] Remember kids, drugs are expensive.

"This doesn't use drugs. It uses a liquid compound, I'm not sure how it works. It never runs out and isn't addictive."
-
Any non natural compound used to affect the body can be called a drug, addictive or not. Check and mate pal. I'll admit, I'm curious to see what it can do.

"You aren't the only one. Alright. I believe I know how to turn this thing on. Actually, 2 ways but that's for later. One of these cords connects right into the spine, getting brain signals, so..." He says, and nothing happens for a minute, the a green fluid is in the tubes. "Oh yeah, may have dyed it that colour." He says, and his eyes turn the same colour.
