Hello.

Following @gallowsCalibrator's uploading of the replicator manual, I've decided to see what I can't do to amend their current issues.

If you're interested in lending your hand or have a reasonably equivalent understanding of technology and mechanical work, I'll be available in the mess hall intermittently until they're repaired.

Thank you.

[ OOC: The replicators will take AROUND THREE (3) WEEKS to fix. That means that, as of 6/29, daily work will complete its repairs around 7/20. This is provided new events don't set them back. Additionally, here are the further specifications from the mods:

A. They need several, clever individuals to fix and suss out the mechanical beasts with the manual. If your character has somewhat technologically equivalent mechanical skills (like fixing a computer or other electronics), this'd be aces.

B. If your character wants to help but isn't on the necessary technological and mechanical level, then please feel free to enter The Board of Taste-Testers. Or, I guess, get in the way more than help lol.

C. If your character is down for neither of these things and just wants to peep what they're up to or provide some encouragement or hassle them? Go for it. The Station is your... Oyster. Space oyster.

D. The results after making repairs will be the following: better overall flavor (though it won't be perfect), texture restoration (though, it will always lack the perfect texture and will always be a little grey), and the alcohol will taste less like jet fuel and more like some lower shelf brews.

Please feel free to top-level as you'd like! ]

[ Tatsuya blinks at him for a moment, then snaps his fingers as understanding lights up his features. ]

You've never used a lighter before, huh?

[ He clicks the thumbwheel and sparks the zippo. ]

I've never really had any reason too... [9S starts, but then his eyes light up with the flame.]

Huh? Oh, there's a mechanism there... Of course! I guess it's safer that way, huh?

[ Tatsuya nods slightly. ]

Yeah, otherwise it'd be too easy to set things on fire. Especially since it unlatches pretty easily.

[twoaffirmations]

No kidding... And a fire in an enclosed space like this could lead to an explosion pretty easily.

[But he already said something like that, didn't he? Well, 9S will just go ahead and gently take the lighter now, and do his best to patch up the part in question. After a couple of minutes he hands the device back, and shows Tatsuya his handwork. It's sufficient.] How's that?
