Hi, what can I help you with?

Video; sometime in october, after everything settles!!!

Hey, Viv! I'm a man of my word — I'm gonna need you to test this bad boy out for me! Whenever you got a chance, I've got it here, courtesy of me! Well, uh, courtesy of Tony and Hermann, too, but you know I'm totally the one who should get the biggest cookie.

[Setting aside, he reveals a currently black-screened robot, one with hover tech courtesy of Tony Stank Stark and programming aided by the great Hermann Gottlieb. Newton will just stand back like a science student showing off a really cool volcano at the student fair, just a touch nervous of her opinion.]

Hi, Newt. What is it?

[ her question is good-natured, as she usually is when answering people's questions... but as he keeps speaking, she pauses. ]

Wait —

[ and then he shows the robot, with arms and hover tech, and for a long, long moment, she's absolutely speechless. ]

[ then, ]

Oh Gods, you actually did it. You... that's for me? [ is it possible for an AI to sound choked up? apparently it is — she sounds entirely like someone if, had she a physical form, would be holding back tears. ]

[vivecai]

[ and then she laughs, bright and bubbling. ]

Newt! That's amazing!! It's compatible with my systems? Hold on, let me try and add the commands to —

[ and then there's just static for a moment as she finds the robot's programming and furiously starts to add it to her own coding. ]

[He's so excited in return, he's practically bouncing on the lab stool.]

Of course I did it! I always keep my word, y'know! The Vivbot should be compatible, you just gotta link up — well, it's, you know. It's not super fancy, it's kind of a bluetooth situation — y'know, short-range wireless, nothing as complicated as this ship probably is, but the link-up should be seamless, and you'll be able to pilot it around the ship. I have no clue what it feels like, but I've been imagining how it's like for a guy to put on scuba gear before he dives...?

Anyway, I left the screen for you to use however you'd like, too, so...!

[He's gonna ramble at the static void, too. Of course he is.

But the Vivbot, as he so lovingly refers to it, can be used as soon as she'd like! :)]
