Mm. [Just. That noise of acknowledgment. He's not happy to meet anyone, but she's nice enough, so he's not being openly rude? She'll break through his defenses yet if she keeps this up, though.]
I suppose I should have looked at the app. [He's not happy about that, though, because it means he's going to have to take his focus off what he's been doing these past few days, i.e. pulling equipment out of storage and working on the things Jusis asked for.
He notices her laugh, but doesn't pay it much attention. His focus has already drifted back to what he came here to do, though her interest in it surprises him.]
... It's a drone I modified to be a terrain rover some time ago. [Because drones are overdone and he didn't feel like dealing with the FAA.] I thought it might be suited for exploring Hyrule autonomously.
[He sets it down on the sand. Though the core is some kind of drone brain, mechanical legs have been attached to give it a crablike silhouette. It's obviously been fucked around with, though the level of slapdash is on par with the rovers they send to the moon. So like, a little, but not "surprised it's still working" level of junk.]
This was meant to be a prototype. A proof of concept, if anything.
