video; @anonymous | THIS IS MY FIGHT SONG (take back my paint song)

[wrenchedup]

Wrench: green
Jinx: blue
Sharon: Orange

[ The feed turns on (yes, he still claims to be anonymous even on video) and already there’s some noise in the background. Looked like it was Jinx and Sharon engaged in some kind of one-sided battle. Sharon is busy trying to snatch a paintbrush out of Jinx's hand, her cheeks puffed up in visible frustration, lips pursed. When it's clear she's not going to get it back, she steps back, picks up a small bucket of paint, dips her fingers in, and then flicks the color at the other girl before sticking her tongue out childishly. Whether Wrench was or was not aware that they were fighting or one of them was fighting and the other of them was confused about it was out for debate. Speaking of Wrench! Two LED eyes pop up from the bottom of the screen real close. ]

Helloooo trenchies!! [ in one big swooping motion that might have almost hit the both of them which he quietly apologizes for shortly after. He swings wildly between being dramatic and being serious enough to give someone whiplash if they weren’t used to it. A moment. Wrench takes a step back, okay a few more steps, aaaaaand a couple more. There we are. ]

Tis I, your friendly– er, your neighborhood, uh, Wrench. And I need your help! Or, uh, I guess I’m just announcing some shit with these two cool cats. [ He shrugged and Sharon gave an awkward wave, pulling her attention away from Jinx. ]

Found this place in Willful Machine. Fixin’ it up to be a kinda work and live space for all you techy engineer and programmer types if you’re interested. [ Cause he’ll use it anyway so whatevs] Come on by, share resources or work on some shit with other people. First, though. Gotta make it look fuckin’ cool.

[ Jinx rolls her eyes at this and without a word, she gathers up to her feet and storms off somewhere off screen – yanking a bucket with her to go as far away from the two of them as possible to paint. Wrench takes a moment to watch this but returns his attention to the camera. ]

[ Sharon takes a moment to step up next to Wrench, shooting Jinx a short look as she sulks away, visibly confused but trying not to draw too much attention to the tension ] There's plenty of shit here to decorate with if you want to come by and help. And I've also brought snacks, so... Free food!

Oh, yeaaaaaah! Free food. How noble! [The sarcasm in her tone is enormously thick, not even the toughest of knives can cut through. ] It’s important to include everyone, right? Make sure no one starves out here.

[ And Sharon just sighs deeply (like a bitch (: ) hoo boy. never a dull moment here, right? ] Soooo yeah! Come by. Help us make shit cool.

What rules are there for 'cool'?

(background)

[opheliac]

Rule one: Don't be a stupid, dumb, secret keeper. That'll give ya one ride to cool city.

(background)

[fogsong]

Oh my god, Jinx. You can just talk to me! [ She tosses a paintbrush at Jinx. It's still full of paint, hot pink, iridescent. Looks like she's willing to waste her paint on you, Jinx. ]

video

[wrenchedup]

[ the video is kinda just. there. at the moment. he's not even on video right now. wait, there he is. right after jinx's voice popped up to say her piece. ] and on top of that, hi again by the way, if you're planning to drop by and use the space realistically I'd dig it to be as eclectic as the people using it. our space, you know. not one person's space.

but i can show you some of the vibes a space i used to occupy long ago had if you're looking for some pointers or ideas.

voice

[offinventory]

If I make part of the space what I consider cool, that's cool? My sense of cool usually doesn't match others.

I have ideas if they're accepted.

[ It's already mapped one of its favorite screencaps of The Rise and Fall of Sanctuary Moon in a guide for how to write a good query in multiple coding languages, if you zoom in. ]

[fogsong]

[ Sharon is literally just painting depictions of Wrench's emoji mask all over the place. Please do not mind her. ]

I hope you're cool with looking at yourself, Wrench. [ MB might have a good point. Some direction would be good or he's going to get a thousand little chibi Wrenchs causing havoc all over the walls and she won't be sorry. ]

[wrenchedup]

[ So like. This was not what he expected to happen and he's really curious what the fuck is going on here but also not sure if he should step in. Not everything "needs an adult" and he's hardly adult material half the time. So. ]

Hmmm. [ Wrench makes his analysis of this whole situation very dramatic. You know, like those art snobs in movies. ] Hmmm. [ And turned, just as dramatic. Pinched his finger and thumb together and in a very extremely fake french accent: ] I love eeet.

[ Then, back to normal. ] Eh, do whatcha want. I think I need. Some graffiti on me, though. Don't you?

[fogsong]

[ Despite the earlier tension, Wrench's overacting gets her to grin, smile pinched. She approves. ]

What kind of graffiti are you thinking? Because I only know how to do those ugly bubble letters.

[ezra_of_lothal]

I was always a mechanic more of necessity than anything else, but I gotta admit, having a big wave of nostalgia right this minute.

video -> txt

[wrenchedup]

Good nostalgia, I hope? [ Uh. Where. Can he stand.... you know what, he's gonna switch to txt. Just so they can fight in peace, or whatever. Sometimes people need to duke it out yanno? ]

If you like being a mechanic, dude. by all means come on by. let's make some cool shit that can be useful for everyone. now with uh. .... road guy.... making roads and shit, we need things that can travel them right?

was thinking, hoping, i could make some people sized drones.

text; un: Lothrat

[ezra_of_lothal]

Yeah, it's good, just missing my foster sister, who's the engineering genius in the family, and a crazy good artist, too.

But I've done a little building from pretty much scratch. I'll come on by.

action // for wrench

[creidim]

[ Luna herself is in Willful Machine at the time of her broadcast, over in her own shop. She's not quite sure what techy engineer or programmer types might mean, she's curious enough about it. While she might not know the man with the curious digital mask well (besides from a brief conversation via text), she knows both Sharon and Jinx, and figures if they need a little help setting up things and decorating — Luna would be more than happy to help.

She doesn't make an appearance on the broadcast itself, but she makes a plan to go over later on. Once shutting up shop early for the day, she'll make her way over by the mid-afternoon, with her Familiar Ariel in tow. There's certainly a lot going on when she steps inside, and at the very least Sharon and Jinx have called a temporary ceasefire on their earlier broadcasted battle. The raven perched at her shoulder croaks, also looking around with interest. It's Wrench who's closest to her when she looks around for either three of them, wandering over with a faint smile. ]

I heard there was an opportunity for decorating. Is it still available?

[ Pasta Girlfriend is here to help. ]

Action!

[wrenchedup]

[ So. This is happening. The fight... thing. And he doesn't know if he should intervene? Welp, looked like it was "over". Even though it definitely wasn't. Wrench sort of suspected Jinx might storm off at some point. He got it. Sometimes you need space. Aaaanyways, when Luna peeked in he was standing almost at the door just kind of... trying to figure out what to do with himself. ]

Oh, hey! Uh. Yeah, come on in. [ His mask flashed a friendly ^__^ as he gave a grand welcoming gesture ] Everyone's welcome. Plenty of supplies. And food. Need to build some tables, too. Add to the workspace.

[ Right, that was what he was gonna do. He sorta spaced out there while The Things happened, sorry. ]

[creidim]

[ It's not the only thing... sort of happening. There's another bright smile but it fades briefly when she realises that a certain someone else is here: Robby Keene. They're... not really speaking right now. Considering Luna had something to do with murdering his father last year whilst under heavy Corruption. It's... awkward. She's giving him space. If he wants to talk to him when he's ready.

There'll be a brief look between the two of them before she looks over to Sharon and Jinx and... well. This is all very awkward here. But yes, anyways. Oh. ]

I like your mask, it's very clever. Is it magic? [ It doesn't look magic, but you never know. In this world there's more magic that not. ] I could help with that. I'm not very good at carpentry, but I can certainly hold things for you. I imagine it's far easier with an extra set of hands.

un: kickflips, video

[strongroots]

Sounds like you're all having fun already. Sure you need more excitement?

[ Yeah, that sarcastic remark from Jinx was heard loud and clear. He saved his eye-rolling for off camera, but he sounds amused otherwise. ]

txt;

[wrenchedup]

[ He's in a predicament Robby cause this was 1000% not what he was expecting to happen and he also has no idea what's going on. Well, it's obvious what's going on but the why is very uncertain to him. Anyway, uh. Yeah so shit is still going down and he's switching to text. ]

its a group project over uh. an extended amount of days, let's say.

txt;

[strongroots]

[ Sure, Robby can take a hint. Let's not talk about the party in the room. It's cool. ]

sure i can help

you want some laptops i was taking parts from to fix up another laptop. all of its shit if you want something good but you can make them work prob if you find good parts

[ and replace the parts he took for his own project!! ]

One of these things is not like the others.

[ JINX........ ]

[opheliac]

( oh she hears that voice from afar. she is just going to... )

let me guess. me right?
it was stupid of me to be here.

[overlies]

[ the bat signal worked! ]

Why is that, Jinx?

Private; txt

[wrenchedup]

trying to cause trouble?

[overlies]

I’d say ignoring her is what’s causing trouble, no?

[fogsong]

Nah, we all belong.

Free food? The noblest of causes. I'll paint some shit for free food, don't gotta twist my arm for that.
