Otto sighed as adjusted the valve coupling on the Valkyrie's third engine unit. 'Half corroded honestly William', he tutted to himself. He lent back relying on his grappling unit to hold himself in place as he examined his array of tools trying to find the wrench setting in order to remove the valve's coupling.

For a great many people Otto's position must not have seemed very pleasant, dangling as he was some 50 or so metres above the ground held aloft by only a single tether secured to one of the Valkyrie's idling engines. Otto didn't mind though, all in a day's work for him. After a few seconds he found the tool he was looking for and nimbly removed the coupling. He flipped the large piece of bronze around in his hands a few times examining it through his helmets lenses before searching for another tool on his wrist. Eventually he fond what he was looking for and cleaned the coupling as best he could before re-securing it where it had been. He wasn't happy with the repair, but what with the engines spinning up and William wanting to depart soon he didn't really have much of a choice other than to jury-rig the repair. It would hold until they reached their first destination at any rate, and once there Otto could set about doing the full repair.

Looking about him Otto noticed that the majority of the gangplanks had by that point been retracted and so he winched himself down to the ground with great care most certainly not wanting to end up in the water above which the Valkyrie was hovering. As he made contact with the ground he retracted his line the long thin wire snapping back into his gauntlet with immense speed. Otto inspected the gauntlet as he walked, wanting to make certain that it was still functioning properly. He could've sworn on the decent that the blasted thing was running slightly slower than it should've done.

Reaching the gangplank he continued all the way up still tinkering with his gauntlet trying to work out where the fault was. Eventually he found himself on the bridge and looked up half confused at how he'd quite managed to navigate his way there. He pushed the thought aside and slowly walked over to William.

'Err Captain' he began, his voice sounding rather tinny through the modulator in his helmet, 'The repairs you asked for are complete, but engine three is in need of more work when we get to our destination'. William turned eyeing Otto for a moment, 'You're sure it'll hold?' he inquired. 'Of course' replied Otto with as much confidence as he could muster, 'just don't push the old girl to far.' At that William nodded and Otto took his leave setting off down a corridor trying to find his quarters. He bustled along the corridors retracing his way to the engineering decks where William was usually kind enough to billet him out of the way of everyone else. Otto didn't know quite where the Valkyrie was going, but then again it didn't really concern him as he'd mainly be with the ship. A nice quiet trip he thought to himself.
