it was only half a joke. I am pretty bored. And I have some catching up to do.

[forwakanda]

Truly? I have technology I could show to you. Far better medium than the standard written word. But if you'd prefer actual magazines, I could make this happen for you.

[hydras_arm]

seriously? Like flying cars? Or telephones you can type on one handed?

[forwakanda]

Of all things you could think of a flying car is what you would like to see? There are voice commands with technology possible.

[hydras_arm]

hey don't be mean. I don't know what to ask to see when I don't know what all exists. I know computers have gotten pretty fancy but I wasn't allowed to play with them much.

[forwakanda]

They have indeed, especially here in Wakanda. We have Kimoyo Beads and each bead relates to a different function. The prime bead monitors health and the like. The AV bead links in to the Wakandan database and has a holographic display. There's a communication bead for talking like how one would with phones or texting. There are other beads with other functions. It taps into the Vibranium here.

[hydras_arm]

does beads mean something else here or are you talking about computer jewelry?

[forwakanda]

If you would like to think of it as jewelry then yes, indeed. It is worn on the wrist like a bracelet but a very powerful one.

[hydras_arm]

Man, the future is wild. I thought cell phones were crazy enough.

I know about some stuff, but Hydra was real stingy with what they kept me up with. Learned a little on my own in Romania. But I don't even know how my own arm worked.

[forwakanda]

Would you care to know? I could explain it to you. The improved arm will be
far better and you'll have more control.

[hydras_arm]

[There is a long pause, before the reply.]

When does installation of the new arm commence?

[forwakanda]

Next week if you are available for that.

[hydras_arm]

I'm not exactly busy.

You sure you want to give me a new arm?

[forwakanda]

Be that as it may, you might not be prepared for such a thing yet.
Why wouldn't I?

[hydras_arm]

It was a weapon. I don't.

I don't thnk I can be awakkke when they puttit on.





Please.

[forwakanda]

I can assure you all precautions will be taken and only when you are actually ready for them, Mister Barnes.

[hydras_arm]

Who decides when I'm ready?

How would I know?

[forwakanda]

I do believe it would be a feeling.
Perhaps a gut feeling on wanting to move on.
If you question so much, you may not be ready.

[hydras_arm]

Tell me more about these precautions.

[Texting is nice. Nobody can see him curl up in a ball in a corner that way.]

[forwakanda]

We would take things nice and slow. Doing only what feels most comfortable to you. If needed you could be calmed with an herbal remedy or in the most dire of circumstances restrained. I'd rather not do the latter given what I've seen from your records.

[hydras_arm]

I'm used to being restrained. Or drugged. Knocked out is safest for your staff.

[forwakanda]

That is exactly why I wish to refrain from restraining you, Mister Barnes. We want this to be different from all the times before. You are not forced into suffering now.

[hydras_arm]

Can't promise I won't get confused. It hurts, putting an arm in? Nobody ever asked me if I wanted it.

Kind of hard doing everything one handed though. And my balance is shit.

I'm sorry.

[forwakanda]

There will be ways to combat against the pain, Mister Barnes. We want this to be as pain free as possible if it is what you want.

If you'd rather, there are physical therapists to assist with you learning to cope with one arm and the balance needed.

Nothing at all to apologise for.

[hydras_arm]

You mean there's ways to make something like this not hurt?

I don't know. I got through it all without that the first time. I should probably see a shrink. I don't want to.
