Baby I'm Back

Jake and Rui were working on the pod. Jake was jacked in with his cyberdeck and Rui was cutting holes in the side so I could actually fit. I barely fit normally but the exoskeleton increased my bulk, and it wasn't the sort that was taken off easily due to the fact it was attached to my bones and spine in a dozen places.

"Are you ready Hoss?"

"Yeah. Will it work?"

"Sure, if you see that pool thing you mentioned you should have a new portal. I spliced your credentials into the connection procedures of this pod. It's like taking a banana cutting it and adding a little bit of another banana in the centre before sticking it all back together."

"I can't imagine sticking a banana back together is easy."

Jake shook his head. "No it is not, very messy business. But it should work."

"Should?"

"Don't worry, I'm an expert."
