[A thing for 'bots runs in the family. She probably runs some kind of halfway house for forging identities for Synths who need to pass as human.]

[ The proper way to deal with defective or broken synths was to call Persona Synthetics and request a pick up. A truck would come, forms would be signed, and the model would be carted off for recycling. If the unit in question was still under a valid warranty, such a service was complimentary. If not, it amounted much the same to paying for a piece of overlarge garbage to be picked up, much like a couch or totaled car. There was potentially harmful battery acids inside the casings, the company warned, or serious malfunctions could cause small explosions or electrical fires inside the unit. Such instances were rare, but the potential was officially taken quite seriously.

Most people didn't bother. It was too troublesome, and a synth could usually be pawned off for spare parts to shops. The model in alley, however, propped barely against the dumpster, looked as though it bad been deemed not worth the effort. And to be fair, it was a pretty sorry sight.

Lawrence had rebooted and found himself unable to access his left arm, and with major power issues in his legs. Unsurprisingly, as the last thing he could recall was a client stabbing him several times with a knife. In fact, said knife was still lodged in his chest, sticky synthetic blood still pooled around the wound. Of course, it would be unlikely for anyone passing by to mistake him as a real corpse for long, with some of his skin grafts peeling away from the metal, but still, it seemed a little careless to leave him so gruesome. He checked his logs and saw there had been several attempts to hard-reset him, apparently to no effect. He mused have shut down, he reasoned, and somehow he'd turned on again. There was just as good a chance he could power down unexpectedly, but the notion of sitting around waiting to see until a dump truck turned up wasn't exactly appealing. He'd been threatened enough with being scrapped to reason out it wasn't a desirable outcome.

Gripping up for the lip of the dumpster, he tried to divert power to his legs and push himself up, but mostly only succeeded in making the impaction around the knife spark.]

"Fuck."

Re: Zari Tomaz | Legends of Tomorrow

[oracle_at_gotham]

Barbara was a bit nervous as she wheeled herself into her new mechanic's workshop. Getting a new mechanic was like getting a doctor was for a human--or so she assumed. With Tim off chasing ghosts, there wasn't anyone in Gotham Babs trusted to poke around in her programming.

Luckily, Dinah's sister Sara knew a gal who was the best.

[ When he went rogue, Dabi had immediately decided on running away, and living in the shadows. He even changed his name, went by 'Dabi' now, no longer the name of a robot who was supposed to bend to the will of a man who claimed himself as his 'father'. It left him with scars though, on a good portion of his body. He thought it made the synthetic skin look human, so in the end, Dabi does not complain.

That is, until a man is able to pick out of a crowd, notices that despite the design features Dabi changes with his codes, that he's still a robot. At first, he's combative, refuses to work with the man, but then a promise is made. 'There's a human who's taking in rogue robots. You look like one yourself.' Was it the scars? The man hadn't known who he was. It takes a little longer, until the man makes a better promise. 'If you serve his needs, you have a will of freedom. He's looking to help your cause.'

It was almost too good to be true. But Dabi agreed. The police were always on his trail, so it was better if he could hide away some more.

The 'needs' were an issue, and Dabi considers that maybe it was sexual in nature. It's not the first time he heard of it, and it's in his code to allow it. But, to his humor and disbelief, it starts off with domestic requests, eventually leading to where he is now, a hired killer for the needs of the 'League'. Another robot, Kurogiri, generally takes care of the domestic chores, so Dabi is free at most times. He does cater a little more to their 'master', or boss, as Dabi refers to call him. Besides the nicknames he's been able to get away thus far.

But recently, Kurogiri had been captured. They were criminals in the end. Besides the rogue robot affair, the boss, a man by the name of Shigaraki, was a ruthless underworld crime-lord. Dabi's not even sure why the boss goes so far as to help the robots, bring them all in. And without Kurogiri around, it's become tense in the league. Dabi finds himself cleaning up more, despite that he'd rather be in the field, attacking and killing in Shigaraki's name. He doesn't get out often anymore. It makes him feel chained again. It's after he spends an entire day and some of the night cleaning the base, that when Shigaraki orders another glass of whiskey, that Dabi felt he's had enough.

The others are asleep, and it's just him and Shigaraki. It should be fine to voice his opinion. He's done it several times already before. ]

Can't you pour the drink yourself? The bottle is right in front of you, creep.

[ Despite the nickname he's given to the boss, it's obvious that Dabi is more than fed up with this. ]

Stop making me do simple things when you can do it yourself.
