This is something I've been wondering for a while. It seems that I have been slacking off on my abilities lately.

While I'm not the best when it comes to machines, I do want to do my best.

Is there something I can make for you? Or perhaps fix?

That's alright! I'm sure if we ask around, we might find the answer. If people we able to make the lights turn on here, surely there's someone who knows how to power a mechanical penguin!

[ She's so, so hopeful. ]

Oh, please don't worry about that. I know what whatever work you do will be amazing!

[scooba]

Well, if you say so...

[He wasn't too sure about this but....!]

Do you know what you want from your penguin? Do you want to make a lot of lights or make noises?

[azuresong]

What I want from my penguin...? [ Oh man, right to the brass tacks!

Her face scrunches up momentarily as thoughts whirl around before smiling. ]

How about... like a nightlight? Something I can pat its belly and a light comes on! Maybe they could sing a song or two, as well!

[scooba]

Oh, I think I can do that. I just need to find a way to light it up and sing a song.

[He said with a small hum or two.]

Do you have anything specific? A certain light or a song?

[azuresong]

Eheh! I don't want it to be too complicated, so any light or song is fine with me!

Once we're able to figure out how to put it in there, I think it will be easier to do bigger and better ones in the future!

[scooba]

Then I will need some magitech materials to get that to work.

[Hmmmm...]

Do you know where I could get them?

[azuresong]

Nope!

[ She answers... so, so matter-of-factly. ]

But that doesn't mean I can't figure it out! I'll ask around... I'll find who knows about it!

[scooba]

Oh.

[......]

Whatever you find out, let me know. I want to make it the best that I can.

[azuresong]

Yes! With our powers combined we'll make the best, most amazing penguin ever!

... Besides Pers, of course!

[scooba]

I hope so.

I just want to make something that will make people smile.

[azuresong]

But you're already doing that, Freminet! People can see your kindness by offering to do something for them.

[ She leans into the camera, smiling as wiiiide as she could. ]

See! You've made me smile!

[scooba]

[Whoa, big smile there! Enough where he had to take a step back!]

Um...I'm glad to hear it? I just don't want anyone to be upset and especially when we are all stuck here.

[azuresong]

I think you're doing you're very very best! Every little bit counts, and knowing that you're trying so hard to make people smile makes all the difference. I'm sure there's many here who have already smiled today because of you.

[scooba]

You really think so? Because I think you speak very highly of me.

[azuresong]

I know so! You just have to believe in yourself, too!

[scooba]

That's...

[mumble mumble mumble]

....a difficult thing to do for me.

[azuresong]

It might be at first, but with a little bit of encouragement every day I'm sure you can do it!

Believing in yourself is always the first step. Or maybe saying something kind about yourself.

[scooba]

Well, I suppose I'm not that bad of a mechanic? And that I can fix things?

[azuresong]

Yes! Yes, that's it! That's a great start!

What else!?

[scooba]

And I'm a good diver....?

[azuresong]

Hooorray! See!? You're doing it! I knew you were amazing, Freminet! Telling yourself a little bit every day what great things you can do can make a biiig difference!

[scooba]

I don't know. It seems...kind of silly to say those kind of things?

[azuresong]

Eheh, maybe a little. But I feel great after I do it! I think it's important to remind ourselves of all the great things we can do.

[ She'll offer smile a soft smiling, nodding. ] Thank you for trying, we can always try again once I've gathered the parts.

[scooba]

I...

[Alas, he didn't mean to start turning red but here he was. His face was slightly flushed before looking away!]

....I wouldn't mind. I think I need more practice on it too.
