Keiko walked out of the mechanical bay with a smile on her face.  That human was very nice to help her install her new upgrade - Diagnostic Systems!  Now she can see for herself the conditions of others!  That human was even willing to give her a discount on his usual installment fee, but there was something weird about him while he worked.  His cheeks took on this strange reddish hue and she could tell halfway through the installation process that his interal temperature was more than a few degrees above normal.<br/><br/>Keiko shook the memory out of her head.  It was nice to have a little money left over after the upgrade, but it wasn't enough to live off of.  She would have to find another job to do and soon.  Fortunately, there were some nice shops nearby and - ooh, a bar!   Bars usually have high hire rates due to their customer volume!<br/><br/>"Whaddya want?" the barkeep asked asked, too busy wiping down the bar to look at her.<br/><br/>"Um, are you looking to hire?" Keiko asked, holding her hands in front of her. "I could wait tables or clean the floors or something..."<br/><br/>The bartender looked up at Keiko to berate her, when he noticed something that threw him off entirely.  "Jesus.  The ~/~'s wrong with your eyes!?"<br/><br/>"Um... my eyes are fine...  or they work fine, anyway," Keiko replied, a bit put off by the bartender's exasperation.<br/><br/>"How could they be?  I mean, they lack pupils and - you're a robot, aren't you?"<br/><br/>"Yeah," Keiko smiled. "You didn't notice?  Usually, it's my voice that gives me away."<br/><br/>"Eh... wasn't really paying attention, to be honest," the bartender confessed.  "Look, we are looking for hires, but to be honest, this place is about to crash.  You're better off looking for something that comes with a future.  But if you're really strapped for cash, just sign on with a ship.  There are a few I know that are looking for workers."<br/><br/>"But isn't space travel dangerous?" Keiko asked, looking very timid all of a sudden.  That's when it hit her.  With her new upgrade, she could sense the well-being of others around her and use that knowledge to reverse or even protect people from harm, which is a common by-product of danger.<br/><br/>"Um, I have to go," Keiko said, looking very anxious all of a sudden.  "Thank you."<br/><br/>Thirty minutes after checking the board (it took that long because she nearly made it to the ship before she realized that she might want to take a few things along with her), Keiko entered the Fuzzyboots and saluted the Orx Captain therein.  Keiko tried to explain what it was that she could do for the ship's crew, but after being told that she was late, she excused herself and hurriedly made her way to the communal bunk, setting a few things by an empty 'bed'.  She could explore the ship later.
