He smiled, he liked people who were straightforward, they were easier to deal with.
"What's the job?"
He asked. Whilst he was reasonably sure that this wasn't a setup, he wanted to make sure and the easist way of doing that was by asking questions before confirming if he could/would or could not/would not help.

Joe Skase He smiled, he liked people who were straightforward, they were easier to deal with. "What's the job?" He asked. Whilst he was reasonably sure that this wasn't a setup, he wanted to make sure and the easist way of doing that was by asking questions before confirming if he could/would or could not/would not help. ~Leadstorm was a littleoffset by the question, but chalked it up to Joe being either dead or just not having time to let this guy know who he was and what he wanted. "I 'Aquired' a bike a little while back and now its AI won't cooperate with me. I need someone to go have a chat with it. Completely offline, and I'll want to be piggybacked into the 'frame while you're working. what's the fee?"~

As the elevator starts its decent into CN Mark gets some time to think.
"Why am I wasting my time with this? Sure it's my employer but, that's a part time job. The only good that's coming from this is more firefights and this S.A.A.S unit." he though to himself with a smirk. Mark than checked all his systems and backup systems on his unit before playing around with the programming.

Chylde_Orchid ~Leadstorm was a littleoffset by the question, but chalked it up to Joe being either dead or just not having time to let this guy know who he was and what he wanted. "I 'Aquired' a bike a little while back and now its AI won't cooperate with me. I need someone to go have a chat with it. Completely offline, and I'll want to be piggybacked into the 'frame while you're working. what's the fee?"~ He raised an eyebrow at the request. Offline AI's were interesting and not all that common. The guy on the line now had his undivided attention. Not only that, but he was now awake enough to realise he was talking to the guy from the other night. It was that recognition that made him not name the exuberant fee such a job normally attracted. "How about I take a look at the bike and let you know my opinion on if its doable before we talk money?" Not something he was prone to do, yet, it showed that he lacked the concept of money and greed which came from money.

He knew very well the kind of rarity his problem was, and a guy like this might take the job merely for the chance to play with the AI in question. "Allright, Meet me at that gun shop in the "Feild this time tomorrow." He said, Then, to himself "Assuming I live through tonight..."~

"Better make sure you stay alife then"
He replied as confirmation that he'd be there, before hanging up and looking at the nearest clock to catch what time he should be there, before making a coffee. Sleep was now out of the question, the AI problem far more interesting than sleep.

Trau strained his eyes, looking for the pattern. "s**t," he mumbled to himself, "screwing around trying to get this...damn. Lost-" but before he could finish his statement, he saw them ahead of him. He pushed the CENTAUR as hard as he could, and it responded quicker than he had expected.
"This...I'll have to get used to."

"Wow, are you really having that hard of a time piloting that thing?" Mark said turning his point of view towards Trau. " I'm guessing it's your first time piloting something like this or are you just that computer illiterate?" Mark said smirking, he knew a the moment he could insult them because he was at the advantage because of his piloting skills.

Marx_Zenuko " Wow, are you really having that hard of a time piloting that thing?" Mark said turning his point of view towards Trau. " I'm guessing it's your first time piloting something like this or are you just that computer illiterate?" Mark said smirking, he knew a the moment he could insult them because he was at the advantage because of his piloting skills. Trau muttered nonsense under his breath, and then answered Marx, "I've never run something this new. The ones in Eastern Europe..." He pulled up on the controls, punched the throttle, pushed down on the controls, and then pulled up on them again, easily hurtling himself through the air in a graceful, yet unique double-arc. "Piloting one of those units was like driving a rock out of a catapult. This has a little more panache."

Moves to the edge of the elevator and looks down " We're almost at the bottom guys, hop you've familiarized yourselves enough." Mark said with a smirk as he moved the S.A.A.S unit away from the edge again.

Mark smirks " Yeah, I got your strategy... don't get killed in these expensive S.A.A.S Units." Mark then chuckles to himself as the elevator clicks to the ground in Central. He then proceeds to move his CENTAUR of off the elevator platform.
