The schematics or maintenance upkeep of the Neodu was someone else's job. Yet she pushed the importance of 'understanding' harder than ever. The bulky computer which displayed intimate information of the modified Mobile Worker shone an offending blue. Tessa listed off certain areas of worry; areas that Sirius had for most part considered and got use to during his initial training. After awhile she leaned back into her chair and swiveled it towards him. [color=#ff3377][b]"So that's just the basics. I'll have a huge manual ready for you to go over later, it'll have personal notes and other kinks I'll realize once I get a chance to look at the machine myself.[/b][/color] A long pause occupied the space between them. She sighed then threw her pen at him for not replying quick enough. Sirius moved his head to the side before chuckling. The pen sailed high through the air for a moment before falling. Tessa offered an apology to one of the others in the room. Leaning against the workstation he crossed his arms over his chest. A murmur of conversations were a constant in the research sectors. Being one of a few place with gravity, they were a hotspot for the scientist and off-duty mechanics. [color=#33ccff][b]"I get it... kinda sorta. But you know I don't learn that way, I'm a hands-on kinda guy."[/b][/color] She readjusted the strap of her bag across her chest before preceding to log off her computer unit. [color=#ff3377][b]"Hands-on... You'll be dead before you learn anything of use [i]that[/i] way. Preparation is key. How many times do I have to tell you that?"[/b][/color] Tessa paused. [color=#ff3377][b]"Relying on others is okay but you should learn what you can if at all possible."[/b][/color] Sirius knew she was right but it felt overwhelming sometimes, all he wanted to do was, live, breahte, and have fun. To explore the things around him with the Neodu; which was a new train of thought for him. Mobile Suits were a bright fascination and being in one had stirred something in him. [color=#33ccff][b]"I know, I really do."[/b][/color] He let a easy smile take over. [color=#33ccff][b]"Just watch though, everything will be fine This is the path laid out for me."[/b][/color] [color=#ff3377][b]"You choose your own path, Siri. Now let's go get some food."[/b][/color][/indent][/indent]
