<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

I don’t know how shameless you thought I am.
*Puffs out my mouth and furrows my brow while looking at the reactor, still showing the core*
You see anything like this?

@Magnanimity

I was just trying to be respectful...
*Takes the core and holds it next to the other device on the machinery, comparing the two*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

Huh?
*After a moment of silent thought, my face turns beet red*
Yellow, just look at me! The armor wasn’t the only thing I had!

@Magnanimity

*Hesitantly shifts my gaze and then lets out a relieved sigh*
That’s much better than what I thought you meant before.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

*Jogs across the floor over to you, and shows you what the power core looks like. An identical looking device seems to be lodged into the machinery at the base of the central reactor itself*

@Magnanimity

*The nearer you get the more I awkward and nervously look in another direction*
The ship’s power is more a curiosity, now that I think about it. Plus, it’s going to be really hard to get you into the city for clothes shopping without something to wear first. Maybe we should just call this off.

*Looks over the railing you leapt, thinks, then looks around to find a metal staircase not terribly far away*
Look for a round slot of sorts. Maybe like, six inches or so across. Not sure how thick.

@Magnanimity

*Pokes around the machine, but appears to be moving strangely and avoiding looking in your direction*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

*Lifts my hand up to just below the nape of the armor, and releases a thick cylindrical disc from the armor. As it comes free, I take it with both hands to hold it, reacting as though it is much heavier than its size would imply*
It’s been a good ride. Thanks for everything.
*Pats it on the shoulder before yelling out to you*
Alright, I’m coming!

@Magnanimity

*Stretches*
I’m not going anywhere.
*Starts to poke around for any energy receptacles*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

Alright. I'll be right behind you in a second.
*The back side of the armor hisses then opens up on its own and I drop out of it, watching it close back up after a moment, only empty this time*

@Magnanimity

*Takes a moment to catch my breath*
Okay, okay, good.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

Yeah. It's replaceable. I had to do it once. But only once- These things have a long life.

@Magnanimity

*Shuffles over the railing to make my way toward the central device*
Let’s see if we can find out where to put it.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

The core itself might be able to be put in somewhere. Would just have to take it out of this.

@Magnanimity

It has a power core?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

I mean about using this armor's power source.

@Magnanimity

Do you have an idea on how we could do that? I don’t see a charging port anywhere.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

I'm kinda thinking you may have called it earlier, based on what you're saying.

@Magnanimity

The luck part should only count if we can get it up and running.
