She had pretty much expected everyone to go take the other task. Since she wasn't there they would be at a disadvantage and all. So she was surprised when she arrived at the scene and noticed that some others had come along with her. Thessa whistled as she looked at the body of the thing. It sure was big. It's almost a shame that she couldn't have seen it moving around up close. But she couldn't remember having ever seen a steaming giant robot man like this before and that was saying something! The man in charge had some silly eye wear and didn't waste any time getting down to business. “How good are you with scalding heat?” "Probably fine!" Thessa said. "Hasn't done me in yet so I guess means I can handle it pretty well." Fire, lava, all sorts of heat waves, it could hurt of course but no matter how much she took she had always been able to recover. She glanced over at the steam again. It might use up more time than she would like, she'd need to pretty much constantly recover the whole trip, but if she let on to that then people might start to figure something out. For some reason that idea made Thessa very upset. "How often are you-" Keller started to ask, but stopped himself. "It doesn't matter. We have two pressing issues right this moment. The first, as you might have guessed, is this goddamn steam leaking everywhere making it real hard to do a proper disassembly. Even worse when rain gets in there and just evaporates on impact mixing in with the tinker stuff and whatnot. So we need someone who'll be able to go in while it's still fucking hot and figure out what's still making it." "Huh, so basically I go in and start yanking on things until it stops?" Keller winced "We don't actually want to break the thing that's making all the steam. Or anything else in there if we can help it. We just don't want it to be in the giant death robot anymore." That did complicate things. She had occasionally dabbled in techie stuff but it wasn't something she excelled at. "Welp. I can probably get inside but dunno how to get it out besides just pulling it when I find it." "I know," he sighed. "But maybe just be careful when you're doing it?" "Oh sure I probably can do that. Gently rip it out yup should be fine." Thessa said, face lit up with a huge, confident, grin. "You keep using verbs that don't match the adverbs you just said." "Now now if you get too hung up on details it'll take even longer to get it done. Won't know till you do it right? So if that's all I'll just go in there and delicately tear up some equipment!" She gave the man (what was his name anyway?) a knowing wink as she strolled towards the death machine. It sure was hot but she didn't intend to be in there for too long. Go in, find what she needed, and take it out without completely breaking it. Simple stuff really. It was only when she was almost to the machine that she remembered the man had mentioned there were TWO issues. She shrugged. "I'll deal with that later I guess."

fun but not much of a song, 6/10
