All righty, we are back!

“My aid may be limited.” he says bluntly. “But I will offer it, especially if it means assessing the damage done by the two renegade maniacs responsible for all this.”
“Hey, speaking of, maybe we can help you bring them to justice!” you declare with a little pump of your fist into the air. “They’re up to no good still, and have to be stopped before they ruin any other worlds.”
Irico smiles approvingly. “Raditz and I could make the arrest official. We’re not about to let people like them run free across the galaxy.”
“Sadly that does not seem possible at the moment. They were last spotted attempting to gain control of one of the Astrabellua.” he says with clear regret. “If they are still alive, they are most likely still in our timeline of origin.”
Your uncle frowns. “Damn. Well, was worth a shot.”
You all fly back down, and you think to mention, “Oh, right, Giru here…” The little robot floats near your head, “The one you called a… ‘Micron’, was it? Well, he’s actually one of the Machine Mutants… though one exiled by his people because of his choice to help us over side with the others.”
“Giru, Giru, a decision that has not once been regretted!” he beeps happily.
Rabaht leans in a bit closer, then nods slowly. “I see… malleable structure, likely the result of nanomachines…” He stands up on two legs again. “Are the others like him in construction?”
“Yeah. It’d proven to be a bit of a pain in the ass, too.” Videl confirms.
“Well then, how should we go about this? There’s plenty more moon to cover.” Kikono notes. “But there’s also so much more of that world to look into, and we have someone who can help guide us at this point. That said, we also might need to break into smaller teams to cover more ground…”
“We do have two ships, and plenty of folks that can get people out of trouble, should it arise.” Maple points out. “But it also might be better to stick together just in case trouble DOES arise.”
