Going for gold, winding up with a participation ribbon.
Who: Gaige, you, maybe some police, definitely some Rotom
Where: Out and about Goldenrod City
When: August 10, 11, 12
What: Gaige wanders around getting into trouble, business as usual.
Warnings: She has a potty mouth, and really with the borderlands cast you should always expect some violence.
As much as she knew there were SOME PEOPLE in this city that Gaige wanted to avoid at all costs? She had to admit she liked Goldenrod.
It was big, it was modern, the people seemed happy here. And she didn't have to cannibalize other peoples appliances for spare parts to make robots or tools. She could just...buy them. Like a normal human being.
That did not mean she wasn't still on the lookout for a unattended to toaster or blender that might serve her purposes.
Riding on the back of a freshly evolved Metang, Gaige felt like pretty hot shit as she returned to Goldenrod for the first time since she'd caught her Rotom. Unfortunately in an effort to attract the biggest and strongest of Rotoms, Gaige had caused a...modest explosion in town and promptly fled the city limits before she could be arrested. While she wasn't exactly high on the most wanted list since no one got hurt, she intended on avoiding the police as best she could.
Still just because this wasn't Pandora didn't mean there wasn't some fun to have around town right?

Lacking either of those items she decides to take the bait Betty is offering.
"Y-yeah! Totally like that when I got here. I was just trying to fix it. I'm a Mechromancer after all, fixing broken or dead machines is my business!" She declares hoping that anyone listening will buy it. Or at the very least that she didn't just throw herself deeper into a trap.

"Oh, that's lucky then! And you weren't even going to ask for payment or anything?" she asks, pressing the point with a grin. "Well, I'm sorry Rob here got in your way like that."
no subject
And usually those jobs consisted of violently killing people for loot but details.
"Aw that's ok. Rob is a good boy isn't he? Just coming over to say hello! And my Joltik is just a little overly friendly herself."
After a few practice swats she catches her Joltik in her hair and puts her on the arm that has so far being hanging limp this whole time.
"Put it back!" She commanded in an authoritative tone. The Joltik smiled with her eyes and began to glow as she pumped more electricity into the arm so it could move again. The batteries would only be half charged but Gaige's natural motion would recharge it over time.
"I'm Gaige by the way. Nice to meetcha!" She offers the robot arm for a handshake.
no subject
Lazily scratching behind Rob's ears, another laugh escapes her as the Joltik has to be caught. "Seems like you've got a troublesome one," she said, reaching over to grip the robot arm for a handshake- coincidentally with the same hidden prosthetic of her own, although it's nowhere near as fancy. "Betty Bengal's the name."

The Pokemon world just isn't ready for Gaige at her complete, unrestrained anarchy levels.
"Most of my pokemon are kinda troublesome jerks, but that's why I love them." She gave the Joltik a smooch which had sparks jump off her lips and leave burn marks that she just grinned through.
no subject
Betty nodded to the Joltik. "Maybe a friend for your friends?"
no subject
But more importantly...
"So wait...people can actually lose limbs and stuff here? The way the pokemon fought each other I was starting to figure we were like...immortal you know?"
Not to mention apparently Handsome Jack had survived Athena's attempt on his life which no one usually survived.

At her question, Better laughs and flops the hand around a bit. "Well, I think that's only for dying... Or that's what I've heard. I don't plan on testing that sort of thing out."
no subject
Which was more or less how the Vault Hunters took care of injuries...that and lots of stabbings with needles full of healing chemicals of a questionable nature.
"Well if you ever want some upgrades to that arm of yours I'll hook you up! Flashlight, multi-tools, vibration function, give me enough time and money and I bet I could have that thing replace an entire set of cooking utensils."
