"Huh. Interesting."

*Once we reach the lab he lets Leyla in first, then you.*

[b]Omnus looks around.[/b]
-
*There are a number of machines for analyzing and sorting samples. There are also computers, microscopes, tools, lasers, half dismantled weapons, a mouse with a human ear growing out of its back and robot parts.*

[b]Omnus starts running around like a kid in a candy shop, examining everything.[/b]
-
[b]That's pretty much how Sketch acted when he first saw this place...[/b]
-
"Huh, this stuff is great!" [b]Omnus returns, panting.[/b]
-
"Yeah, I know... Nothing can really beat the feeling of having your own lab at home though..."
-
"Hm. I plan on turning my room here into a lab."
-
[b]I guess that sounds like a good idea if that's really what you want...[/b]
-
"Yeah, cyborgs don't sleep. I don't need a bed."
-
[b]Well wouldn't you still want something that seems like a home? Not just a lab?[/b]
-
"Homes are overrated."
-
[b]No they aren't...[/b] "Everyone needs a home."
-
"Meh. Cyborgs don't sleep, nor do they need food/shelter. I'm fine."
-
"If you say so... But sleep, food and shelter aren't the only benefits of a home..."
-
"Really? What other benefits are there?" [b]Omnus looks genuinely interested.[/b]
-
"A place to return to, where you can be comfortable... Somewhere where you can keep your special belongings... Somewhere where you could make art or music..."
-
"Sounds like a laboratory to me."
-
[b]A lab is part of a home, not a home itself.[/b]
-
[b]Omnus shrugs.[/b] "Everybody has a different view on things. I spent three years holed up in my lab, it's basically my home."
-
"Three years? That's terrible!"
-
"It's not as bad as it seems. Anyway, we should get going."
-
[b]Yeah, I guess we should...[/b]

[b]Omnus begins heading back to the main part of the dojo.[/b]
