((Robot drones are ded, Terr ' Noc discovers they are drones of the ever legion, and they run on some bio-plasma power source or whatever. Said plasma source has exploded and created a corrosive splash that is currently hazardous to even walk on. Sergeant Pepper Dancer suggested people use the hoverbike Shawn has to get across without incident.))
GADR: "Why would we turn your bike into scrap metal? It's perfectly useable, especially for getting over corrosive substances. You can get others across safely - just not me or the Chalcanthite... Bishop here -" It points to Terr ' Noc, the singular optical lens glowing momentarily to conduct a passive scan " - we both have flight capability and therefore have no need to be carried on a hover-vehicle."
DEUK: It is standing near Rommel's drone body and examining the back of it. "Sergeant, at the risk of sounding crass, why have you placed Rommel's... Memory-chip, I suppose - upside down? I'm pretty sure Hypatien technology isn't omni-directional." The Leader android takes out the microchip, flips it back and re-inserts it.
DEUK then kneels down and, in a lower tone, but not necessarily a whisper, addresses Rommel. "We were ambushed while you were deactivated, but it was no big deal. I reactivated you because a new development has occured..." It gestures to the Plasma puddle
((Possible In-RP reason why Rommel hasn't activated despite having a microchip. Just to get us back together.))
