Small, is he? Small?! You will know what it feels like to be truly small. The moment your kind cease to be convenient cannon fodder for Prime, your circuits will be ripped out of your skulls by your own hands, your wires will hang out of your belly like entrails, and only just before stomping the last of your kind into dust will you finally realize you were in league with a human from the very begin-

{Oh no, my mistake. What I meant to say was hi, mister Prime!} he adds cheerfully, diminishing the severity of his psychological assault by following it up with an incredibly stupid joke.

Do it, take a step forward and see where it gets you.

"{Prime!}" Phoebe admonishes, before having to hide her mouth behind her hand to stifle a stuttering giggle. {That was very...} *snrk* {very rude! Please apologize to that poor girl.}"

KWA-BANG!

The groombot continues to hold out its hands, the holographic image around them shuddering from the heat released by its cannons. Said cannons being large enough to launch tennis-ball sized shells which explode on contact with the ground, just shy of Prime's feet; presumably, as close to a warning shot as this machine can accomplish.

"{Anomolous cognihazard detected. Adjusting firewalls.}" The groombot warbles. "{Refrain from further communications or your speech protocols will be manually overridden.}"

<SunChild15> Miss Fisher, we're probably the two *least* likely people to be hurt by whatever's going on.
<SunChild15> That settles it. I'm calling her in.

<SunChild15> Miss Fisher, I want you to meet one of the smartest magical people I know; my sister, Owena Ty-Maldwyn.

(ovo) is typing...

<(ovo)> Well, that's some pretty high praise, but I'll try to live up to it.
<(ovo)> Anyway, hi! It's very nice to meet you, miss.
<(ovo)> What seems to be the problem?
