https://youtu.be/H4MVoNiMwqwYou touch down beside what looks like a large drill bit, giving a wave to Bulma. “Hey there Izzy, what brings you here?”
“Emotional support for cous and Pantea, but they’re mostly fine now. Gave a kick that turned that negative energy into positive energy.” you reply. “Stopping off to check what this is all about before I go to them.”
“It’s those MOGUERA units Gohan recovered from Monster Island. We’re repairing them and modifying them so they can handle an underground inferno a bit better.” she explains.
“GIRU! GIRU! I’m helping!” the little robot exclaims as he pops up from near one of the vehicles. “Modifications made to MOGUERA unit 3 complete.”
“No issues with the reprogramming?” Bulma questions.
“Viral layer scrubbed and replaced.” he responds cheerily. Giru then turns to you, waving his arms. “Izumi, Izumi! Good to see you again!”
“Same to you, lil’ guy. You been keepin’ up the good work?”
He stands up and nods his… body in reply, then flings his arms up. “New holographic projector successfully integrated! Giru, Giru.”
That’s new. “Holographic projector? Nice, but why for?”
“For things such as this!” He spreads his arms out… and makes a little rainbow above his head between them. Aw. Cute. Giru looks upward, then shimmies his arms again, making a much larger rainbow… with another one above it.
You snicker. “Is that a double rainbow? All the way? Across the sky?”
“Yeah! Yeah!”
With a cheeky grin, you share a fist bump with the lil’ bot. Walking towards Bulma, you look over the machinery. “So they’re a combiner, huh?”
“Effectively, yes. Each one can move on its own for transport, then link up for their intended purpose of large-scale yet remote drilling. We want it to be able to stand higher temperatures for prolonged periods of time. Mostly worked out.”
You look back at them again, some of the scientists affixing sheets of metal, others giving one of the pieces a short test drive. “It working out so far?”
“Honestly at this point I think it could drill halfway to the center of the earth, with what we’ve done to it.” Bulma responds confidently. That… might not even be sarcasm. Bit of an overkill, but eh.
>A. Hmm… combining units… gonna have to save that idea for later…>B. Say, can Giru take a short break? Maybe he can help Gohan and Pantea out a bit too. New perspective and all that>C. Need some help? I’m sure Gohan and Pantea will be fine for a bit>D. Something else?
