[public|text] Circutry & Engineers?

[ladyofthesands.livejournal.com]

>> To those of you who are engineers or have access to technical components within the Special Weapons cache--I am working on completing a lightsaber and am looking for circuitry in order to help me complete this goal. Attached to this message, you shall find a schematic for the components I need. If any of you have come across such and would be willing to aid me by letting me have spare parts, I would be most appreciative. It is a difficult task to assemble such a thing, but I do have the handle finished. If you are curious, you may certainly arrange a meeting to come look, or find me in the Sensoriums working on lightsaber crystals.

They remain a taxing thing to cut and garner much frustration, but I shall be quite glad if someone should aid me with gathering the prerequisite parts in order to complete this project. Should I simply ask for access to the division itself to rummage? I am uncertain of the protocol when it comes to these matters.

You have my gratitude for any assistance you may provide and if there is something you wish in exchange and is within my power to grant, I shall be pleased to do so.

Hmph. Reliance on a weapon weakens one in the long run, if you ask me.

>> To be fair, I did not ask you. But your opinion is noted. I am Jed-Eye, therefore I shall build a lightsaber. It is a task of skill and patience-- one I am determined to pass, Kazuya Mishina.

I make no claim to know what a 'Jed-Eye' is, outside of what little I gleaned from a brief encounter with one, and at the moment, I'm merely attempting to make idle conversation. However, the creation of a weapon, in my mind at least, shows nothing of skill or patience. Anything can become a weapon. To hone the body, and rely on one's inner strength alone is the true test of skill and patience.

>>I have been trained from an early age in a wide range of combat techniques, from hand to hand to those that rely on weaponry of various kinds. The blade I seek to make is not for the sake of a weapon to wield in battle. One may possess a thousand weapons and still fail, one may become the greatest hand to hand combat expert and still fail.

It matters not if you hone your body or rely on your own inner strength, but how you choose your battles and when to use what weapon. Your hands will not save your hide if someone is shooting piercing energy bolts at you. A warrior knows what tool is right for the situation and adapts as needed.

I would not use an energy weapon such as a lightsaber in stealth, for example. I would be noticed in a second.

Hello, Arha Masaari—you may call me Aeneas. I am not classified as an engineer, and I have no parts readily available for you, but I do have a way with electronics and other mechanical equipment. If you need any assistance in constructing this item, you may always contact me—though I am assuming that the crystals are the only things giving you trouble?

[ladyofthesands.livejournal.com]

>> The crystals have been the most difficult thing thus far. I have not yet had my hands on the parts to say that the electronic components will be easier than the actual crystal cutting. But, for the moment, I shall say that I am pleased to meet you, Aeneas, and that I should be interested in what you think of my handiwork when the time comes.

[enter-aeneas.livejournal.com]

It is a pleasure to meet you as well! If I come across any items that may be of use to you, I will be sure to let you know as soon as possible.

Until then, I look forward to seeing you around the ship. Good luck!

>> I am easy to find, should you wish to do so and I appreciate the kind gesture. Should you wish anything of me, you may have what I am able to provide.

A little bit later...

[enter-aeneas.livejournal.com]

Oh! I almost forgot:

Within my posessions should be an Awesonian-adapted translating device. I never thought to look for it because of Stacy's built-in translation system, but it should be around here somewhere, perhaps in this place called the "Weapons and Posessions Cache". It should contain plenty of wires, and parts of it could be easily adapted for the purposes you require.

>> I thank you muchly for such a gift, Aeneas. I appreciate it a great deal--I shall look immediately for this thing.

[enter-aeneas.livejournal.com]

...Would you like for me to come look for it with you once you are able to get inside this particular area? You...you may need my assistance finding it.

[ladyofthesands.livejournal.com]

Please. I would like that, very much.

[enter-aeneas.livejournal.com]

The pleasure is mine entirely, Arha Masaari! I am always willing to help. Just let me know when we have clearance to enter the Weapons and Posessions Cache, and I will attempt to meet you there.

>> I shall request clearance immediately.
