It's preeeeetty advanced.

... I feel kind of bad in hindsight. I thought what I built her was a step-up, but it was probably like a mom getting macaroni art from their five-year-old. She might as well have patted my head and said 'my little Picasso'.

[stationmaster]

No, man, what you did for her was amazing.

We didn't really have the means here to separate her from the entirety of the station. I'm no engineer, I couldn't have done what you did.

So, you know, don't ever doubt that.

[groupiedrifter]

[He'd totally be kicking around a can with a huff if they were discussing this on a street somewhere.]

Yeaaah... I mean, I'm happy I got to help her out for a while there!

I'll just have to get even better at robotics, so if something comes up, I'll be able to fix it.

[stationmaster]

She'll appreciate that.

[ and he can relate, at least partially, to how newt feels too. ]

But, you know, don't let that get in the way of why we're all here, okay? We'd appreciate your help but there's no pressure.

[groupiedrifter]

... I know.

[His shoulders sag.]

... I'd thought it could be a really bad idea. Staying longer. Thought maybe it'd endanger other planets, but I just — yeah. Lesson learned. I just figured... meeting half way, you know? In exchange for not letting the locals use the orb. The idea of letting the orb do anything outside of the Ximilia makes my skin crawl.

[stationmaster]

[ he lets out a commiserating sigh. ]

Mine too, man, mine too. It's why we need to collect them as fast as possible.
