Wouldn't being defeated imply that we're dea—er, not safe?

@Legend

You said your suits can teleport you here, right?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Malevocholy>

Alrighty. Do you need a suit too?

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

*The tank has a nozzle that fits the device to its exact proportions*

@Legend

That's not necessary. My job is to keep you two safe; as long as you two don't get defeated, I shouldn't need to fight.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Malevocholy>

PaMDA: Confirmed.
—What are you making?

@Legend

I think you'll be pleased with the result, but for now I can't say.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Malevocholy>

Go on.

<Snipped quote by Legend>

*Lets out a soft, amused exhale through my nose*
All you gotta do is be ready.

@Audacious

<Snipped quote by Legend>

*Looks up and down the environment, then focuses on the target material*
How much do we need?

@Audacious

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

PaMDA: Remove approximately as much material as you need to manufacture your weapon. Err on the side on overdrawing.
*The system highlights a device that looks like a sealed mechanical coffee mug with an upward-facing spout*

@Legend

*Having been staring closely at the suit that the hands were taken from, I speak up to Isis*

Please request an additional 5 kilograms, if she can carry it.

*Nods and looks around*
Everyone ready to fail catastrophically?

@Audacious

If I may offer an alternative? If the material is such that it naturally forms as a solid, there may be an easier way.

*PaMDA generates a diagram of a pseudo-crystalline structure colored red and blue at irregular intervals speckled throughout the structure*

@Legend

Ah. Well I never was much of a scientist. Although... System, what material is this made of? Something that forms naturally as a solid, or is its base state something else?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend>

So extremely small steps in temperature difference. Easy.

@Audacious

I believe it wants you to make an extreme heat at all points at once.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

It has a few different combat assists you can use, like autopilot, aim targeting, predictive dodging. You might want to try them out.

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

Uh, Panda, where is our energy coming from?
PaMDA: The facility is running on backup reserves at this point in time. Minor power draw from the superweapon cache.

<Snipped quote by Malevocholy>

It should be able to warp us to the lab if we need to eject.

@Legend

Interesting. So there's no energy production at present? Further, if your machines can do that, then don't let one fall into the enemy's hands.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

Do you think you'll be able to get combat ready in time?

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

*Shrugs*

@Legend

<Snipped quote by Legend>

I think so. Are there any other hurdles other than this initial one of directional control? Speed shouldn’t be a problem, I think.

@Audacious

More importantly, how is the eject system? I'd rather not have to catch a flaming exoskeleton if things go wrong for you.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend>

Kinda need to know. Where can I find out?

@souleaterfan320

The system or the human should know.
