[ There's nothing remarkable about Viktor's first thought intentionally shared through the Murmur other than this: JAYCE TALIS AND JINX OF ZAUN CANNOT PERCEIVE THIS MESSAGE. For all others, Viktor's accented voice can be heard, soft but distinctly metallic, resonating through the shared consciousness of all who open their minds to the connection. ]

I'm looking for anyone who has experience in robotic engineering, mechanical maintenance, medical prostheses, or surgery and amputation.

[ While he doesn't offer any context, his tone is even and calm as if he's putting out a general want ad rather than a cry for help. It's a curiosity, but a focused one that is searching for results. ]

Also, if anyone has located a hospital or any other facilities that might have medical supplies, a robotics lab, or any business that requires mechanical tools, I'm looking for some specific equipment.

Oh, and my name is Viktor. Some of you may be familiar with my... friend, Jayce Talis. [ There is a weighty pause before the word friend. ] I'd appreciate no one mentioning this to him.

I believe that anyone is capable of academic achievement with enough time and effort.

A pleasure, Mr. Aventurine. I'm not familiar with the full scale of technological capabilities here, but your world sounds truly impressive. Are these robots you speak of automatons, or artificial intelligence?

[ He's not sure about this doctor friend, given the way Aventurine talks about him, but he can't deny that he enjoys being around intelligent people. ]

My tool list is still in the making, but a soldering iron and supplies at the very least.

Both. But, I should also say that where I come there is an intelligent species that are what most consider androids, so this isn't as novel in my world as it sounds if these technologies don't exist in yours. Robotics are simply essential to every day life across the cosmos.

Understood, don't feel a need to hesitate to contact me once you're finished. For the starter mentions, though, I do have both, yes. Do you have a power source for that iron, though? I can't guarantee it works until I have a power source to check it beyond visual condition.

"Every day life across the cosmos." [ He echoes it not to mock, but with an awed sort of tone. A sentient android species is enough to fill Viktor's mind with questions, but the implication that it's but one marvel in a whole universe is enough to send his brain into overdrive. ] I must pick your brain about your world some time, it sounds fascinating.

I'm actually planning to power it myself, if there are no other options. Depending on the energy source, I suppose there might also be someone around who has the ability to help.
