Dust & Fidget
@TheColourlessRainbow @Medical Lab
"Yaaaaah!!!" Uh oh, Fidget was already preparing to shoot off an immense pillar of electricity in a random direction... And this was when Ahrah spoke up "It's called the Way of The Flameless Light, Fidget! And, I don't believe it is wise to do what you're about to... Unlike the moonblood generator you hit with your lightning, this ship keeps us all afloat... And, we're surrounded by metal, which means... That lightning would not only endanger the ship, but, our own lives." welp... Looks like someone was bound to step in with some common sense. Dust just sighted.
"Now Fidget... I know you're trying to help... But... Maaaybe electrocuting us all isn't the best way to do it... Now... Let's-..." The distinct thumping noise of Bubba shoving them aside and exiting them interrupted him for a moment... As he regained his composure, looking a bit puzzled, he opened his mouth to continue... Fidget interrupted him, again.
"Hmph... As if I needed YOUR help to get the ship moving again!..." She pouted, trailing off as the ship seemed to be running out of fuel "Well... Look at that! It's now or never! I must give the ship ALL THE ELECTRICITY POWER!!!" Fidget yelled, raising her hands as she sent a large shock of electricity towards the ship walls... And, conveniently enough, it was just then that ehy all felt themselves being thrown forwards in the middle of the jump, knocking both Dust and Fidget off balance as they both crashed to the floor... They both noticed two unfortunate inhabitants of the ship getting burned alive during a fire that seemed to have suddenly started aboard the ship... And hearing the announcement, they practically scrambled over each other to get upright, before heading towards the exit.
"Waaah! D-Did I do that?!" Fidget exclaimed, looking rather frightened... Dust, in the meanwhile, looked like he had taken the brunt of the fall, holding his head; looks like he had bumped into a rather tough metal box when he had fallen. "Agh... I don't know Fidget... But... We'd better get out of here before anything else!" Dust said, an urgent look in his eyes as he sort of grabbed Fidget with his free hand as they made their way towards an exit, with Fidget protesting the whole way, mumbling something inaudible over the chaos occurring... Though, both of them noticed that gnarly burn in the middle of Tali's chest, turning to one another, as if they were thinking the same thing... Before they entered the strange door of sorts in front of them, listening to the even stranger conversation between Sphard, and a man who claimed this vault was apparantly save from the Reapers... But, well, Sheperd claimed otherwise... The entire argument was a back and forth exchange really, before they were finally ushered in further towards the bunker, seeing someone named Cameron carrying off the injured Tali towards the "Stitch Lab'... And it sounded like they might be able to find out what happened to her through some sort of process... But first, the two stopped to soak things in.
"Uh... Did I start that fire with my lighting? And uh... Burn a hole through some... Woman's chest...?" Fidget asked in an uncertain, small voice... This actually caught Dust by surprise as he pondered this...
"I... Don't know actually... Without the dust storm... Your lightning never reached so far... But... Then again... We weren't ever surrounded by metal before..." Dust said, he looked perplexed as to what might have happened... There was a bit of silence before Ahrah finally spoke up once more "I believe the ship took damage on it's own accord... And as for that girl... I believe you'll find your answers further in this building." Ahrah said; looks like he was keeping his advice brief, leaving a majority of the decisions to Dust, and Fidget.
"Well... The most obvious place to find out what happened to that woman... Is in the medical lab..." Dust said, rubbing his chin a little... He wasn't entirely sure, but, he figured Tali would be taken there... Fidget seemed a little unenthusiastic about this though... "Umm... You suuure we should go right now? I mean... I'm sure they'll be fiiine! And... ... I prooobably shouldn't be around if that waaaas my fault..." Fidget said, she sounded a little guilty really, even if it wasn't entirely certain it was actually her doing. Dust already began to head to the medical lab.
"I want to know for sure... If it makes you feel any better... You can stay behind..." Dust said, he looked deep in thought as he continued forwards... And it seemed that Fidget followed him, despite being apprehensive about it. "W-Well... If you insist... I better come with you... It's sort of my job now... To follow you... Even if I don't want to..." she said quietly.
When Dust and Fidget entered the medical lab, low and behold, they met Bubba standing there again. The large tin can was seemingly looking around the office for something, not noticing them at first. So far, the old woman typing at the desk was preoccupied and didn't seem to mind Bubba being there for the time being.
Eventually, the big daddy turned and faced Dust and Fidget, now noticing them! Not doing anything more, the big daddy simply stared at the two creatures.
Bubba suddenly looked up as if he remembered something! Reaching one giant meaty arm back, Bubba was grabbing something that was still attached to his back. Some slightly annoying metal twangs later and Bubba produced a..
...a radio?
It looked like a very old radio, certainly some kind of ancient artifact when you put it next to all of the advanced tech on the Normandy. Bubba's portholes flashed a happy green color as it stared down at the small radio in its hand. Like a gentle giant, Bubba slowly placed the radio on a nearby surface (a desk or nightstand) and twisted one of the knobs by pushing it with its giant finger.
*kkkrttskktttttss*
Aw, it doesn't work?
A tune suddenly started to play quietly from the radio. Not loud enough to annoy the lady at the desk, but enough to make the giant Bubba stare with content. He seemed to completely forget Dust and Fidget were there, completely entranced by the music coming from the radio.
