Isto laughed hesitantly, nervously eyeing Keppit's equipment. Just be glad it didn't come off completely. Or that I didn't break my shoulder this time.." Really, his arm wsa pretty bad, but it was nothing compared to the lightening strike. He'd get over this easily enough... He remained as still as possible, watching X out of the corner of his eye. "I should probably head home... I've been gone a couple of days already. Besides, I've caused enough trouble. Don't want to cause anymore... I'd like you to meet Moo, though. You'd probably be able to calm her down better than me.."

*She looked down at him and nodded as she began to bandage him up, making sure to put the neosporin on first, followed quickly by the bandages. Keeping her work careful, she made sure not to mess up Keppit's work.*
Your house it is then, do you want to drive or walk, I can carry Banda and Slush can ride on my shoulder if we walk.

Keppit laughed at X's take charge attitude... "Yes... yes... all's good but a moment please..."she smiled... "The arm might not have been taken off but it's near enough... " she reached down and picked up the saudering Iron... " She looked at X and smiled... "I'm Keppit by the way... Jen's mom... Puppets... " She gripped the handle of the iron in her mouth and offered her free hand to X for a handshake...

Slowly, Isto began to relax, smiling faintly in relief while she bandaged each gash. "Umm... I'm not sure I know how to ge there by driving. Moo doesn't own a care anymore. She turned it into a hovercraft, then wrecked it against a tree a while back. It's not -too- far...We can walk." Isto's gaze turned to the damaged shoulder, grimacing slightly at the sight that greeted him. It didn't hurt as badly anymore... Just a low, throbbing pain. It still looked rather disgusting, however... And a few of the wires were split or missing. Meh, they had more at home. He shouldn't worry, right?

*She reached out and took her hand, giving it a firm shake as she smiled to her. Puppets... Ah yesh, Jen did mention something about puppets earlier and she thought she had heard wind of someone making the SMs puppets.*
Ah yes, puppets... I'm X, Slush's Mum, who Banda is hopefully still looking after... You're doing a pretty good job fixing him up by the way...

Walking it is then.
*She looked down at Isto and smiled softly, finishing up his last bandage with a triumphant grin.*
There... all done..

Keppit grinned "You're doing all the bandageing... besides, I love making things work... Anamatronics are one of my favorite parts about the remote puppets... But it's a bit different with Isto here... and the clout's gone and ripped some wires clean... " she grinned at Isto "I'm going to use the Iron now... I'm not going to touch your skin with it... but rather reatach the wires that are still reattachable... It really shouldn't hurt you... but then I've never really done any wiring on a living beign before... have you ever had experience with this? Can you tell me if it willhurt or not? "
Jen was still watching from the corner... "please don't hurt him mom... "
Keppit turned "Jen... When we're finished here you can go and get Banda and Slush...." then she looked at Isto... "I have my van outside... and Moo gave me directions to your house... It might be easier to get everyone there that way... but if you'd rather walk then I respect that.. "

Eyeing the iron warily, Isto nodded slightly, but then shook his head. "Go ahead... I don't think it'll hurt, but nothing like this has ever happened before, so..." He began to shrug, but winced, immediately falling still. "I don't mind risking it. A van..." He blinked, then grinned slightly, nodding. "Yeah...once you're done, I'll call Moo for directions. I don't really want to risk taking Slush and Banda through the forest after what happened."

Keppit smiled at him trying not to burn herself in the face, since she did still have the iron in her mouth... she let the Iron drop into her hand and brought it right up to Isto's arm... "I'm not going to be able to fix all of it right now... I'll need more wires... and I only brought the sauder kit and handling tools... I assume that you have more wires at your house.... Bu anyway... steel yourself cause here goes... "
Jen gasped...
Keppit didn't take her gaze off Isto's arm as she started using the Iron to fuse the wires again... "Jen do something useful please... "

*A van did sound like a good idea, a really good idea actually, considering the forest had knomes and shadows that mauled in it. Besides, Slush and her could always teleport back, even though she didn't like to use it much.*
A van sounds like a really good idea Keppit... Do you want something to drink while you're sitting here Isto?

((I back n_n))
A faint chill ran down his spine when she began fusing the wirse together. A slight shock soon followed, but there was no pain. There was...no feeling, really. Just an odd tingling sensation, if that counted. His arm remained completely motionless, though not from lack of trying to move it. Too many wires were still disconnected, it seemed. Jen's gasp reached his ears, and he glanced over to the brown SM, grinning faintly. "Don't worry, Jen. I'll be fine. I've had worse." He turned his eyes back to X, contemplating her offer. Now that he thought about it...dang, YES, he was thirsty! He hadn't had anything to drink since the day before, and nothing but a bite of eggs to eat in the past three days. "Yeah, umm, some water would be great, thanks."

"Van it is then... Would someone like to do the honors of calling Moo? and spare her all the details or else we'll have her here in our laps... Just tell her that we're all coming over for a visit... and we're a givin' Isto and Banda a ride home... and ask if she wants us to pick up some chinsese food or sommat.... "Keppit grinned... "Actaully chinese doesn't sound all that bad right now... I'm almost finshed with what I can do... It'll just be a few minutes... X? Do you want to call Moo? Or should I send Jen to do it.... we have to get Banda in here too... " Keppit winced as a drop of wire fell onto her pliers hand and burned her... "I do that all the time... no worries... " she smiled...

Good choice... and once Keppit's done we'll work on getting you and Banda home, hopefully for some food.
*X smiled reassuringly to him as she got up and went over to the kitchen, pulling down a glass and putting ice in it, then grabbing two bottles of water when she passed the cubbard. While she passed by the living room, she gave Banda a smile, mouthing 'thank you' as she scooped up Slush, figuring he could distract Isto from any pain he was feeling. She finally returned to where Isto and Keppit were, carefully dropping Slush down on Isto's lap and handing him the glass to hold while she opened one of the bottles and poured it into the glass.*
Figured you could use a smile...
*Slush looked up at Keppit's work in amazement, curling up in Sharkie's lap and watching intently for a bit before looking up at Sharkie and grinning cheekily.*

*She looked up at Keppit as she opened up her bottle and took a long swig from it before answering.*
I don't really know Moo... so maybe Jen should do it, less freak-outing that way... Just tell me when we're ready and I'll go get Banda if you want....
