[QUOTE="Ambrus, post: 3129946, member: 17691"] Seeing its Mistress crawling towards the drawer to retrieve the encrypted comlink she'd secreted there, DRK-1X completes its program diagnostic routine and uploads a binary file to its vocabulator data buffer. [COLOR=Silver][I]"Report: It is alright Mistress. I am here. Request: Please don't try to move."[/I][/COLOR] The diminutive probot once more pulls the ever-useful hydrospanner from its pack and quickly begins removing the ventilation grate's bolts. Setting the grate aside, DRK-1X takes ahold of a helmet nearly as large as itself, containing the rest of a flight suit, and gingerly floats out and down from the grate to deposit it's burden on the bed. The black spherical probot then completes a quick series of round trips back to the open vent to retrieve the rest of the equipment hidden there; food rations, medical supplies, two magnetic clamps, a datastick and a biohazard vial. As it works, DRK-1X continues to speak to its Mistress laying upon the floor below it. [COLOR=Silver][I]"Apology: I'm sorry you had to endure that session of torture Mistress Dofina.
