Megan did like the idea that they were willing to help– "But I just can't risk you getting caught by other people…" She said, noting Firiko's wings. "And… I'd hate for you to be stuck in that spot you don't deserve…" She rubbed the back of her neck and growled a little when she felt that her hair was braided. Tobias, I swear…
"I can stay out of sight and out of trouble pretty easily ma'am" said Firiko,
"he's not joking," said Skye, "That kid is pretty hard to find if he doesnt wanna be found, bright red wings or not"
"Well…" She laughed lightly. "How are you planning to help me? Because most of my work is either repairing robots… Building them… Or just writing on what kind of progress we did with a single robot model. And I'm not sure if learning mechanics takes only a few hours. It takes years."
Tobias was a bit upset from when she growled at him, but he was alright. I just want to vo and do something besides sit here and listen to adult talk… He hopped off the table and stood next to her, not saying a word.
"I'm pretty sure being an assistant and a run and fetch guy doesn't take much, and I can do the writing for you too, as long as you tell me what to write" said Skye " besides im pretty good at tinkering around with mechanisms, though I've never seen ones that use electricity before"
"And I can play with the kid for you if you like" said Rio, "I'm pretty good with kids"
Tobias beamed when he heard Rio was willing to help him keep his boredom at bay.
Megan smiled ruffling the kid's a little. "That's fine with me…" She thought for a little bit. "Yet for work, I was thinking more of something behind the scenes where people don't interact as much with you… Because I'm sure they'll kick you out for not being a real employee."
Tobias turned to her. "You do your writing at home anyways…"
"But how is he supposed to write it when I tell him what to write anyways? It's like having to write it down twice."
"But you're not writing it twice– it is just being written twice."
She rolled her eyes. "Fine. One of you can write. And Rio can keep Tobias busy."
"Nice!" said Skye "Now we just need A place for Firiko to stay out of sight." said Skye,
"I wouldn't advise staying in this room– my father utilizes this space as well, and I don't think it'd be pretty if he found you…. Maybe my house would be the best place for Firiko."
Tobias grinned. "And what about me?"
"Well, although you were injured today, that doesn't mean you're off the hook from school for the whole week."
He sighed, but didn't say anything else.
"Whelp, it looks like we've got a temporary solution," said Skye with a grin,
"Yeah but we still have to figure out how to get home Skye" said Firiko,
"Right, and we have to figure out what that weirdo who brought us here actually wanted," Said Rio,
"We'll figure out what to do about that later," said Skye, "First we need to figure out how to survive in this world. and hopefully our new friendship can help with that" he said to [megan].
It's hard to figure out what he wanted when I don't even know who this guy is…. Megan smiled a little. "Well, I don't think it should be that tough… But anyways, I need to get back to work, and Tobias can lead you guys home. Just, try not to attract too much attention to yourselves, and you should be fine." She inched her way towards the door. "Tobias should know how to log on my computer so you can write stuff. You guys should be fine!" And with that she left, and Tobias scanned the other men's faces. "I think we should get a moveon before…. My 'dad' gets here…."
Skye nodded, "alright, then" he said as he pulled up a hood to hide his hair, "hey Firiko can you cast an enchantment on your wings so they're less noticeable?"
"I think so" Said Firiko as he summoned a ball of fire, it then surrounded his wings, like a cloak, then both appeared to vanish, but if you looked closely the wings were still there.
Tobias lead them out the door and down the stairs where they came from. They went out the door, and down the sidewalk off-campus. "So…." He glanced at Firiko. "What was that magic that made your wings almost disappear?" He kept his voice down a little. I'm just a tad curious….
"It's a simple illusion" responded Firiko, as he followed, the kid down the street.
"…Illusion….?" He was the slightest memorized, as magic was a simple thing that was left far in the past, and that hardly made an appearance anymore in this world. That sounds neat…. "That's… Cool."
He approached the door and turned the dorknob, unaware that his palm contained a chip that the door scanned and unlocked when sensored.
He lead them inside. "One thing Megan forgot to tell you is try not to be too reckless…. I learned that kind of the hard way."
"Easy enough" said Rio looking back at the others, * I just hope that the usual trouble passes us by for once*
"Now I heard someone's going to write her stuff up…." Tobias wandered into her office area and got her computer started up. Hopefully they have some knowledge on how a computer works… Or else this whole thing'll be a wreck…
Skye nodded, "You show me how and I'll do it," he said enthusiastically, as they trooped in, Skye went over to the kid and watched him fiddle with the device, "Whats this?" he asked gesturing to the computer.
Tobias glared at him for a second to make sure he heard that right. "It's a computer…." He said, starting it up. "It helps keep track of the stuff she wants to access later. Like her writing stuff." He sat down in the chair and waited for the desktop to load up. "I assume… Though… That you have no idea how a keyboard works?"
"I know how a typewriter works believe it or not," said Skye, "So does this work like a typewriter once you get it set up? I mean, minus all these other buttons…"
"Yeah… Lemme just pull up the word processor here…." Tobias opened it, and started a new document. "Here…. She should be emailing stuff for you to type…." Honestly I don't see how this can work… "To be truthful, all you need to do is copy and paste what she sends you."
"And how do I do that?" Asked Skye curiously, while rio investigeted the bookshelf and sat down his nose in a book called Treasure Island.
(Lol. Intrigued boi.)
Tobias waved the mouse around. "You see this… Er… Thing? The cursor on the screen? You have to–"
Just then, the email window popped up, with a whole paragraph or so on the stuff they did that day.
Just in time…. "You have to left click…" He started at the beginning of the stuff in the email window. "Drag it across everything…." He highlighted all the text in blue. "Right click…"
A sub window was pulled up, one of the options being copy. "You copy it… And in the word processor, right click and paste."
And everything that was in the email transferred into the document. "That's all you have to do. There's some formatting things that the intitute wants for it, but it only takes her a few minutes to fix." That was a lot of explaining….
"So like this?" Skye copied what the kid had just showed him, "Btw we never got your names.."
(Umm… Bro… Fourth page. Third reply. I thought we went through this already.)
"Um…. Yeah… Like that." Tobias nodded. It shouldn't be too hard…. But if there's an issue, I can probably fix it." Unless it's a virus or something…
(XD My routine is messed up so that means I am too….)
"Alright I think I got it," said Skye as he got to work, Rio still had his nose in a book and was reading quietly.
Firiko came over to Tobias, "So what do you do for fun that keeps you out of mischief?" he asked, May as well make friends
"Well…. It depends on what I feel like doing. Sometimes I just want to relax and read a book or something…" He rolled his shoulders. "Or I play with a ball of some sort outside." I can do both….. "But I don't usually get into trouble. When I do, it's more accidental…."
"Well do you have any games you like to play?" asked Firiko "Quiet, Inside ones?" he gestured to his wings which had reappeared.
"Hm. Well…" Tobias wandered into the living room. "I'm not sure if Megan has too much to do inside… I'm easily entertained… So. I suppose it's up to you, really."
"Uh huh…." said Firiko looking around, I would read a book…. but I can only read older runes…. and I would totally go outside, but someone might see my wings, and the building has too many things that could break….. "hmm…" then he saw some colorful boxes on the shelf, "Hey Tobias, what's in those boxes there?"
He followed his gaze over to the shelf. "Oh, over here?" Tobias got on his tip toes and reached up. "I don't know what she keeps up here…."
(Unsure what you intended on this being….)
(Colorful boxes….. you seriously dont get the description?! Board games Silly!)
"Can we check it out?" asked Firiko, "Maybe we'll find something entertaining."
