[As opposed to her more...domestic and at-home pursuits, Bella is actually outside during this particular network video. More than that, she's grimy, covered in grease and oil, with her hair in a messy ponytail and smudges on her face and clothes.

The reason for this becomes clear as she flips the feed to reveal her beloved '63 Chevy pick-up truck. It's...definitely seen better days, even more so because it's covered in the bloody residue from one of the blood blisters around town bursting.

Flipping the image back to her grim face, Bella looks deadly serious.
] I don't know if anyone else had like...cars or bikes come with them, but if you have any experience or...any ideas on how to get blood out of an engine, that'd be great.

[Quietly, to the car:] You're not quitting on me, not after all this time...

( This.... is a question that Peter absolutely wouldn't have been able to even consider, not long ago. If it was anyone other than a close friend, he probably still wouldn't be able to. And it takes him a long while.

But finally, he gathers himself up and turns on his video. It's been awhile since he talked to Bella, and he wants to make sure she's okay. )


I'm uh, not sure how to help with that, but.... are you okay?

( His heart patters patters patters, anxious. )

Did you hit something?

( He'll never forget the way the thud sounded, felt. )

I can get blood off metal, but uh...

[ Look, she doesn't want to say it out loud. ]

[ah machinery, truly a siren call. he's never seen an automobile like that and it clearly fascinates him.] If you wouldn't mind opening the lid I may be able to offer some advice, though how much I cannot say without seeing it myself.

This is from one of the blisters? [he hopes it is, that is a lot of blood. also the player knows nothing about cars so. forgive any foolishness.]

... my familiarity with human combustion engines is poor. However, if I can look at the vehicle, I can probably reproduce parts as needed.

Repairing the machine will best be in the hands of other professionals. My specialty lies in other fields.

[Robotics, and blowing robotics to smitherings.]

Dude, I didn't know your truck showed up here! That's awesome!

[Well....]

Except for the blood part. That can't be good for it.

Holy shit.

I'd say I'm surprised to see one of those around here but there are broads from the 20's walking around looking like teens here. So I guess weirder shit has happened.

...Fucking sucks to see her in that shape though.

I know cars but I wouldn't say I'm expert or anything. We could try stripping the engine block, clean it and put it back together.

[Oh hey, her truck came with her!]

I'd say we should probably strip it and clean it out. I've been trying to build one from scratch myself...an...engine, I mean. Maybe it so it can run on uh- alternate power sources.

[Like blood. ]

So if all else fails, I can manufacture a new engine for it.

Eugh, man that's nasty, don't get it on you. And I wish I could help, but I'm better at driving cars than fixing them. Sorry, Bella.

I mean, sure? The practice is always good. And I might not have to completely destroy it to figure it out.

[Because Big Damn Brain and all that.]

I might only need a good look at it to figure out how to fix it.

Well it's not like you can run water through it, right.
