[cue a brief spate of robot laughter from kavinsky.]
And here I was thinking you're boring. Good one, Alleyne.
[crack. it's a sound from overhead, concrete trembling. kavinsky sticks out one robot arm over david's head, in time to spare him from the worst of dust. just a heavy cloud of fat speckles, showering down, undignified. somewhere in the distant reaches of the building there's a groan of structures battered by the cosmic radiation outside.]
But I gotta say, son. I'm a little worried you're treating this like it's a sprint. It sure as fuck isn't a marathon, but ETA from the other techs is we still got hours to go, and you're barely standing. [kavinsky scans david's face. his arm.] I know our biokinetic is busy triaging, but such thing as liquid bandages, man. And water.
