Day 141 | Open (BACKDATED)
Who: Colin, anyone who wants to help or see the new building.
Open: Open
When: Day 141, all day. (Backdated)
Where: Northwestern Bastion, at the brand new workshop.
What: Moving in and getting to work!
Format Can match.
Warnings: Typical Colin Warning, he may say something horribly stupid or offensive without realizing it.
It had been less than thirty days since Colin arrived in the Bastion, barely a flash to his perception of time. And yet, here he was with a large, well-equipped workshop. Three stories, with a vehicle bay, workspace aplenty, a clean room, a chemical lab, and large residence. Getting this place built up had been done quickly even by his reckoning, though it still needed a lot of work to be up to his technological standards.
He still wasn't going to trust the Monument with that most delicate of work, but otherwise it was certainly coming in handy. From here on, he'd be using it less for material objects and more to enhance his amulet. This workshop would let him build his gear back up with his own two hands, and he'd be able to trust the stuff completely. Furthermore, it would offer a significant boost to the manufacturing ability of this small pocket of civilization.
Early in the morning, the workshop would be filled with noise as Colin began testing equipment. After that, Colin would be spending much of the day moving salvage out of his apartment, and all of the other places that he'd been stashing it over the past month. He had a brand new storage room that he had to fill.

That doesn't surprise me. About the only fire I've seen that can give a dragon pause is Plasma. Uh... think sun's fire. And as for these things, don't worry about bringing them in without damage, I'd rather have the parts than the final product. Having it intact would help, but it's completely unnecessary.
[He looks up at Paarth and gives him a wide smile, before he lowers his head to resume inspecting the turret. Gotta make sure that barrel's clear before we try moving it further...]

Even myths advise against meddling with the strength of the sun.
[Most of the damage on the turrent is in its middle with some at the bottom considering Paarthuranx ended up ripping it from where it was stationed. The top portion with the barrel is in considerably better conditioner. No fire spewing- Paarthurnax must have damaged whatever set it off.]

[He really, REALLY wants to go into a long schpiel about harnessing solar power, but that would go right over Paarth's head... Ah well, work, work, work!]
Barrel's clear, firing mechanism has probably been damaged, but a lot of the inner workings seem to be more or less intact. Most of the damage seems to the base, and extending into the superstructure. Interesting.. safe to move, I think.
Can you follow me with it, over to the vehicle bay? I have things over there that'll help me move it where it needs to go inside.

[Once Colin moves back enough, Paarthurnax makes his way closer until he can close his claws over the turret once more. After visiting the Observatory, he has a guess to what the vehicle bay is but he'll wait until Colin starts moving before he follows.]
no subject
[Colin snatches up the box he was carrying and then he sprints over to the workshop. The vehicle bay isn't easy to miss, it's got an absolutely huge retractable doorway. Colin stops in front of it, sets down the box, and waves Paarth over.]
Right here is good!

Have there been any other devices on the Skyway you have wished to study more? I will watch for them.
no subject
The wall seems to have the biggest cluster of these things that we've found so far, but I'm sure there's more out there.
If anything inanimate suddenly starts shooting at you? I want to see it.
[He's walking around the turret again, studying it, and imagining how he's going to get it into the workshop. It won't be hard, but it will need some tools.]

[He bows his head in gratitude, and smiles]
I'll catch you later.
