[Doctor Mephiston Luciferion Bahl] - [The bar area] - [Speaking with Lilith, examining Omega]<br/><br/>Mephiston's eyes lit up and he clasped his together with happiness, "Excellent!  This evening I am engaging in activities with Selena and Daniel, so any design and planning will need to be delayed till the activities conclusion.  Afterward, I'd be most delighted to start at any time.  As is, I am staying in Room 106 and would be happy to welcome you in at any time, night or day."<br/>Mephiston's expression was guileless: if there was a hidden meaning to his words, he wasn't showing it.<br/>"Pleasure and combat?  Any automata I've ever seen was only capable of one function.  To be capable of multiple functions is remarkable indeed.  Genius even!  Yes, there is no doubt that I must absolutely examine your creation.  To refuse would be missing out on too great of an opportunity.  Certainly if someone as beautiful as you designed something pleasing to the eye, then it must be most pleasing to eye.  Indeed, I've experienced the same feeling your studies have suggested: a comfortable atmosphere improves the inventing process."<br/><br/>A melodious voice perked his attention and he turned around to see who it was from.  His distraction from the conversation meant he missed finding out the source, but it did provide him a burst of inspiration.<br/>"The captivating power of song.  Sirens from the Greek mythology lead sailors to their doom with their voice.  Sound having an affect on the human mind.  Sonic weapons.  Yes, yes I can see the potential.  Mounted on automata with special dampening to prevent its own destruction.  The ideas!"<br/><br/>Mephiston's out loud musing was interrupted by the sound of clanking.  Taking a look, Mephiston's eyes widened as he was introduced to Omega.<br/>"This is Omega?"<br/>Rushing over, Mephiston examined the mechanical creature, examining the relative smoothness of its movements.  Patting the robot as it moved, Mephiston felt the mechanical parts underneath, mentally constructing an image as to what the parts would be like underneath.  His expression intent, he revealed nothing about his thoughts as he continued his detailed investigation.  Suddenly stopping, Mephiston walked up to Lilith, took her hand and kissed it.<br/>"There is simply no way for me to describe my admiration for your work.  It would be an honor to work with you."<br/>Looking at Selena and Daniel, there was a drive to him that wasn't there before.<br/>"If the lady's evening is not already spoken for, then she<strong>needs</strong>to join us."<br/>
