[ One week after the apocalypse battle with the OTO, Anders will receive an invoice in the mail of receipt due, thanking him for purchasing one (1) dual action orbital polisher with variable six speed motor control and its accompanying set of buffing and polishing pads. ]
[ That means more to him than you might realize, Anders, especially stuck in a place like this with no familiar faces around. Not that he'll admit it. Case in point: ]
Don't forget that if you pay with a credit card, I receive 10% off my next purchase with them!
I thought you said your magic doesn't work on inorganics?
Although that one spell you used on me certainly did...
Well! This is fortuitous then, because I was planning to ask for you to indulge me a little further anyway. I would be just tickled to get some scans of those effects you were using.
[ Anders is absolutely getting a perfectly posed selfie sent to his phone the next day, showing off a very high gloss, cherry red finish. Thank you, thank you, autographs start in the line to the left. ]
[ A plain-wrapped package is delivered by courier to Anders on the morning of the 25th. Inside the box is a 12" statuette of a coilcat, the same as the hologram which the mage had found so endearing during the FanPort panel. It's posed in a sitting position, head tilted slightly as if to regard its surroundings. Dozens of tiny gears, cables and linkages comprise its body, and it's covered with beautifully electro-plated tufts of silver "fur". Touching it on the head will activate it, and the felinoid will rumble out a purr, pace around on a surface, or bat at nearby objects before returning to its starting position.
Included with the gift is the following note: "For the man who prefers quiet cottages and cats. Regards, Knock Out" and underneath which is signed a string of unfamiliar glyphs. ]
[ Anders receives a snapshot of the house-warming tree he gifted to Knock Out back when the Cybertronian house in Jeopardy was finished. It looks healthy and whole! ]
As promised, it is still alive more than one year later! I believe that means I win our little wager. What's my prize?
[ Knock Out dutifully arrives at the specified car wash on time. He doesn't actually need much of a cleaning — the washracks at the Cybertronian house are more than adequate to meet even his exacting standards — but it'd be rude to refuse when so directly invited. ]
Did it really surprise you so much that I was able to take care of that plant? I've actually garnered quite the collection of them since you were last there.
I'd offer to instead get you something with fruit growing on it, but I worry that your place would just smell of rotten fruit after a while. You know, since you don't eat fruit.
[Anders gets out the squeegee from the provided wiper fluid barrel and gets to work on the back window.]
[ Knock Out holds dutifully still while Anders cleans his window, proverbially biting his tongue to keep from nagging about any streaks that might be left. A squeegee?! He quivers on his tires, and gropes for a redirect. ]
Oh, you know, other than dealing with particularly unusual cases at the clinic, I've been thinking about taking up a hobby. Maybe bird watching or gardening.
Oh, hardly. If anything it may be worse, because we're so often able to withstand damage that would do in other species. It leads to a very frustrating habit of letting things go until they're an absolute walking wreck.
