I have people that can help, if someone can get them over to where I am.

Besides, there's something I want to give you.

[kidjoy]

where's where you are? might have some help lined out gettin' 'em out of here

what are ya gonna give me?

[warandpeace]

A friend left something with me before he went. I think you would get a lot of use out of it. It'll help you make more art.

I'll send you directions from the restaurant to here. [Directions where they won't be seen, for the most part. Safe territory.]

That seems to be the going trend around here.

What kind of odds are we looking at? I'm assuming they have a security team.

I'm not half bad in a fight. :)

But if you haven't tipped them off yet it's probably a good idea to figure out whether there's an opening for us to smuggle them out undercover. Maybe it doesn't need to come to that.

[ Probably it does. But it never hurts to ask. ]

[deconstruct]

i'll help. if there's humans in the way, i can move them. number's not a problem.

[ he's used to mobs of them. ]

Your interest?

You absolutely can.

This is rapidly approaching a conversation he would rather not be logged across the network, though. The mainframe does a quick search of the camera system, and finds the kid's location. There's a terminal not far off down the hall that flickers once before his "face" appears across the screen.]

You do this often?

[The line's supposed to be joking. Casual. It falls a little short.]

WHILE I CAN'T HELP YOU, I WISH YOU LUCK IN THIS ENDEAVOUR!

ROBOTS SHOULDN'T JUST BE MADE TO SERVE OTHERS THROUGH A SINGULAR DIRECTIVE. THAT ISN'T REALLY FAIR!!

[kidjoy]

[mttbrandlegs]

[carl finds this message a little odd to reply to given he doesn't know the person behind the message, but since he's seen how it is down there, he's been looking for a way to help. excuse the way he gets to the point.]

hey! you're not exactly clear about you're doing. are you trading for them or breaking them out? what's your plan exactly?

[kidjoy]

im offering my trades to anyone wholl help. you help i give ya shit for it. like a payment. aint gonna give these assholes nothing

my plan is get some muscle and make them let the bots come with me

[procedures]

Give us a call when you and your friends decide to clean up. You never know when someone's going to get hurt, and honestly - it's better to have someone on medical standing by. Just in case.

Are you going with?

[kidjoy]

if the people helping me wanna get checked out i can tell you offered. aint foreseeing me needing any patching up though

course im going. cant ask someone to risk it if i wont do the same
