The workshop Ira spent the good part of an hour in had warmed considerably. An oppressive heat had filled the room, and many of her various machines were buzzing away; the music and mechanical hum fought for control of the air waves. She was sat at her work table, a welding mask over her face. The loud hissing of Oxy-acetylene welding sounded up for a second before Ira took off the mask, and turned the two valves 'til they were closed. A silver box about the size of a briefcase lay on the table, with a small LED display on the face. A quick look around the room would reveal just how much of Ira's tech had been cannibalized for the simple briefcase. Ira blew on the edge she had just welded, before slowly picking it up by the handle she had carefully created.

Ira stood up slowly, 'briefcase' in hand, and headed towards the assigned meeting room. She arrived a minute before their leader, and sat down silently. Her expression hadn't changed much from earlier, and she simply set the briefcase on the table with LEDs facing upward. Ira wasn't wearing her mask anymore, and had removed the bulletproof vest. Her initial reaction to Alessa's general chatter was similar to Elliot's, but she softened a bit at the mention of their new second in command. Dean wasn't a bad choice truthfully, and she certainly didn't want the position. Ira started listening closer at the mention of volunteering ideas for team integration, with the preface that Dean had already come up with one.

Dean explained the basic premise, that Elliot could shrink her creations, and make them more effective combat tools. That was actually a really intelligent idea, and she was kind of disappointed the thought had never crossed her mind. She nodded in confirmation, and spoke up at the first opportunity. [color=#3068FF]"Yeah, that could definitely work."[/color] Her voice was loud enough to be heard, though she sounded unsure. [color=#3068FF]"We could try it with this, but I haven't tested it yet so I don't know if it works"[/color] She said motioning towards the briefcase, before speaking again. [color=#3068FF]"I know Ales-Er Messiah has a power that can be visually perceived. It'll work best if we can see the change."[/color] Ira finished, looking about the room, her eyes staying on Tulpa a bit longer than the others.
