[i]"I'm going to guess that's because they hopped you up on some fun hating drug?" [/i]
English
-
"No, its called I would win at a lot of contests and challenges."
-
[i]"Who says fun had to be like that? You can just like, I dunno, go around town and throw things at other things." [/i]
-
Amanda snorted then, laughing. "True, I could do that."
-
[i]"Yeah. With your height it shouldn't be too hard." [/i]
-
"I mean my height can do a great many of things. Such as attract attention, and block out the sun."
-
[i]"That's right. Makes one hell of a conversation starter." [/i]
-
"It also helps me reach things on the top shelf, as well. I could go on, but that takes effort." She shrugged then, grinning again.
-
[i]"Riiight, because eight foot tall gingers don't need to put effort into lugging around that armour." [/i]
-
"Seven foot, and no I don't actually. Its all supported by an exosuit."
-
[i]"But wouldn't it weigh a little bit on the exo?" [/i]
-
"Powered armor, it moves with me, I don't move it."
-
[i]"How the hell does that work?" [/i]
-
"Fusion powered cells in the armor."
-
[i]"I know, but how does it predict your movements if your helmet is off? I can understand it reading your brainwaves or something with the technology on this strange ass planet, but wouldn't you need a helmet on for that?" [/i]
-
"No, no. Implant in my neck does that, connects to my brain and sends signals as if it where another set of muscles. So, say I move my arm, the suit reads that command as well and moves with my arm. Its a lot of confusing science-y bullshit."
-
[i]"Oh, I guess that makes sense. What happens if you have a seizure or something?" [/i]
-
"Well, I don't want to find out. Lets keep it that way." In truth, Amanda had seen what happened before. It wasn't pleasant.
-
[i]"Aight." [/i]
-
Amanda huffed then, not knowing what to say now.
-
[i]"So..."[/i]
-
Amanda rubbed the back of her neck then. "Yeah, I don't know. Should probably get going."
-
[i]"Seeya." [/i]
