Eliott's outside like most days now, getting away from the...things...living with her in her pod. It was an infestation, really. Just the thought of them being there made it hard for her to concentrate.

So the great outdoors where there often were MORE people to be found was a better alternative. At least the sound had somewhere to go rather than just fly around her head.

She was building a tiny Legion-looking mini-bot. It was an action-figure at best, but it could say and do a few things. Personally she was just a fan of their designs (not counting the crooked one she faced). Consider it a fan creation.

Silas walks up, blocking her natural light as he stands over her, looking at the bot.

"What are you doing." It doesn't sound like a question, but it is.

Eliott's natural bitch-face turns even more sour just with her light being blocked.

She looks up and narrows her eyes at Silas.

"What does it look like, you clod? I'm making a miniature."

"Is your creation as useless at it looks?"

Silas doesn't like her already.

"YES."

Despite her honesty she seems angry that he asked, anyway.

She stands the robot up straight and looks at it like a pageant mom who's disappointed in her kid.

"Do something!"

The robot would turn towards Silas and raise an arm. And a tiny little metal wire would shoot out towards the tip of his nose. If Silas doesn't react, it just kinda bounces off uselessly.

"WE HAVE POOR AIM. WE WERE ATTEMPTING TO HOOK YOUR SHIRT." the robot says in a high-pitched voice.

Silas' reflexes cause his hand to raise, catching it in his palm!

"The likeness is uncanny. The craftsmanship is acceptable. Is it by design to be a...toy?" He pulls on the wire, seeing how heavy or strong it might be.

It's surprisingly light, but has a bit of weight to it due to the metal.

"It wasn't." she says, her eyes glued to the mini-legion dangling. It kicks its little legs around.

"Not really. Arg! I don't know. I just wanted to recreate it but SMALL. But I didn't get to study the Legion bots so a lot of...components are missing. Also its tiny shape may have made me lose my initial perspective..."

So in essence yes. It turned into a toy. A fancy toy.

As Silas holds it suspended in the air he smiles in satisfaction, particularly when the legs kick.

"You didn't have any other weapon ideas to improvise?"

"Improvise?"

She narrows her eyes again at the sight of the smile. She didn't like how mini-Legion's struggles brought him joy.

She would reach out and snatch the robot, before pulling it in close to her. If Silas held onto the wire, it would snap off easily.

"Tch, what's the point of a tiny replica if it's not the same? Besides. I'm still...working on him..."

As in on cue mini-Legion makes a high-pitched whirring noise. And Eliott just pats his head.

The wire snaps! Silas looks at it before just dropping it to the ground.

"Replica." He repeats, snickering as he says it.

"You lack the scope for original work then. Have fun with your toy."

"Hah! Shows what your pea-brain knows. I've made plenty of original inventions."

She places the robot down before standing up.

Which doesn't do much to make her appear taller in her 5'1" glory.

"THIS is just for FUN!" she points to mini-Legion.

"Oh? And what sort of trinkets are those?" He crosses his arms, looking unimpressed.

"They're classified." she says, placing her hands on her hips and looking away from him.

She clenches her jaw.

How dare he...

As she turns back to give him a piece of her mind, her eyes catch sight of the thing on his arm.

"What is THAT?"

She glares at him but doesn't really give up.

"...What is it made of?"

He considers repeating, but decides to tell her.

"Titanium alloy."

Damn it.

But now she was curious about what it was.

"I have been working on weapons and objects that I can manipulate with my power. I recently realized I am not very physically powerful and therefor have started on working on ways to...make up for it."

She doesn't look at him as she explains. It was embarrassing.

"Now your turn."

He looks directly at her when he talks!

"This is a holographic computer of my design, Holocomp until I find a more suitable name. It serves mostly as an informational database but has other tactical advantages as well." He flexes the shield out momentarily.

As he talks, Eliott's busier looking at the contraption.

"A holocomp..." she murmurs to herself, staring at it from different angles before looking up at him.

"Where did you learn to make such complex things?"

Eliott doesn't seem pleased with the answer.

"Ah yes. Just reading." she says, sounding unconvinced.

"Why would I care about the illiterate?" she asks in annoyance, completely missing the shade tossed at her.
