[ It doesn't sound too hard!? Pascal's a national treasure. Yata can't help but grin at her contagious enthusiasm. If she believes she can do it, he believes so, too. ]

Yeah, with the symbol and everything. That flame's the mark of HOMRA. It's important.

[ He bumps his chest with his fist. Yo... ]

[rubyinferno]

[She appreciates your optimism! In fact she encourages it. That's how she rolls. Now she flashes him a thumbs up.] Got it! Symbol, flames, HOMRA, important... yup, no problem-o!

[In that case she takes a moment to study the skateboard and then nods, Pulling out her device she beings to pull up various screens and keyboards. The way she types on it and uses it seems like second nature; as if she had used it all her life. She seems to be making notes and calculations of sorts before the screens pop away and she snaps her fingers.]

Yeeeeaah! I love it when a plan comes together! [Device still in hand she lifts it to snap some pictures of the skateboard. Gotta make sure she gets the symbol and flames and whatever right...] Gimme a little bit though. I dunno how long it'll take and I have lots of other stuff to work on around here but I'll do it. [Read: she gets distracted a lot... but she does always complete her work!] I'll message you when it's finally done. Scout's honor!

[rollin]

[ This is familiar... ]

You're the best, Pascal!

[ But wait, isn't this the sort of project that costs more than six zeroes? Yata can't impose too much on her when she's getting nothing in return. He has that troubled look on his face again as he holds the edge of the counter. ]

—I-I'll pay you when I get the money! I promise.

[rubyinferno]

[.... Oh, right. Money. She forgets she has to charge for that and receive it here.

Pascal grins and shakes her head,] Nah, this one is totally on me. No worries, buddy! Consider it a thanks for helping me out when I first got here. [It'll be fine. She has plenty of spare parts and stuff she can work with... and malfunctioning robots she can take apart for parts too. She won't really need to buy anything, really. She thinks.

She glances at his game system and watch on her work table though.] Buuutttt I'll need money for the repairs you brought here today. That's because I have to though. The guy who runs this store is a real grouchy grandpa.

[rollin]

[ Yata's eyes light up when she says the hoverboard is free. Free! Just how much work is put into machines like those? He can only imagine how hard it must be to create something that hasn't even been invented yet. You're a true friend, Pascal. ]

Oh, man! I can't thank you enough... Right, here. [ He hands her his card. ] When can I pick 'em up?

[rubyinferno]

[She likes helping people out! And also because she meant it when she said Yata helped her out when she first got here. He saved her from that weird panda and everything. What a guy.

But really she'll do anything for a friend. It's a bonus that this 'anything' involves something she really loves to do. She's actually pretty glad he asked for this because it sounds like a real challenge to make and that's awesome.]

Don't mention it! [She takes the card from him and brings it over to a different machine in the corner. It's more or less what a modern day credit card reader looks like and she swipes it through, calculating the total for fixing his two items.]

It'll be finished in a jiffy! Come back later this afternoon and I'll have 'em ready. [And then she returns his card with a smile.] I'll make them good as new. Maybe even better than new.

[rollin]

[ Yata didn't even do anything that time... PASCAL. He is curious if Pascal can really make a hoverboard, though. But even if she couldn't? At least he learned something new about her today.

He plays with his card a little before holding it still with both hands, his frown accompanied by some hesitance. ]

Aight, but uh... don't change anything about the watch. Battery aside, I wanna keep it as it is.

[rubyinferno]

[No he totally did! He helped her out by botching the escape! Truly a friend to keep around!

Pascal laughs at that, bending her arms behind her head.] Aww... you don't need to worry about something like that, Yata! I wouldn't change anything like that about 'em. I'll just make sure they work right and maybe last longer without breaking this time.

[Basically secure their inner workings better. Isn't that a good thing? She drops her arms and swings them at her side, bouncing childishly.] Anyway you can totally stick around if you want but you might be kind of bored since I gotta be all concentrated on work and stuff.

[rollin]

[ He sputters. Oh, right. With all these machines around, Pascal did look like she had her hands full with projects of her own, work-related and otherwise. As much as he wants to look around, bothering her isn't the best option right now. ]

I-I'll go! I still got a lotta stuff to do.

[ There's little truth to that throwaway line. He picks up his old skateboard in a rush just as he turns on his heel to leave. ]

Uh, anyway, Pascal...

[ Should he thank her again? But he's said thank you so many times already, it's almost embarrassing. Come to think of it, being alone with her in a shop is nerve-racking for him in the first place. ...Why didn't he notice this before!? So, he ends this meeting smoothly: ]

Nevermind! Bye!

[ And he runs out the door. Oh yeah. So smooth. ]
