Koh didn't mean to be offensive, but the sound of someone 'being' a plane sounded very funny to him. he gave off a slight chuckle before speaking again, "Sorreh abou' my laughin'. I's jus'......the though' o' someone 'bein' a plane stri'es me as funneh. In any case, i's good to know tha' someone is tryin to 'elp yeh ou'. Do yeh 'ave a sa'elite uplink? If yeh do I'll give yeh my numbeh so's yeh can ge' in touch wif the ou'side wo'ld 'til you ge' ou' o' 'ere. Eh?" he asked kindly, pulling his cell phone out of his pocket and giving it a quick wave at Berry before quickly placing it back from whence he got it.
He then turned over to where Warp was at and commenced speaking again, "Eh....yeh did 'it the edge o' that buildin' pre'y 'ard, ma'e. I didn' ge' a chance to look yeh oveh eitheh. I'm an ex membeh o' the S.W.A.T. team, yeh know. We all 'ad to lea'n fi's' aid...."

"Unfortunately not." Berry's head drooped. "The hospital was always close enough to take care of that stuff, before the ice age, that is." She ran a quick check though all her cameras, looking for a kit. "However, there seems to be a white and red box on the main floor of the building." She turned to one of the ferrets. "Alright, one group, go get the box. First floor." With that, about eight ferrets went running off. "Oh, and if you'd like, you can take him with you. He seems to like you." She was refering to the ferret Warp was petting.
She then turned to Koh. "And there's no need to appologise. It can sound quite ludicrous at first, but it is the most appropriate term. You see, when the shell is hooked up to the thing that the shellperson is going to 'become,' all the senses are hooked in, though not all of them to an extreme. Sight and sound are the best. Next comes touch. We can 'feel' when something is broken, such as a window. Smell and taste are the worst, mostly used through more common sensors. Like smoke and carbon momoxide detectors." She giggled. "Sorry if I'm getting carried away. Also, I don't have satilite connections anymore. Connecting to outside computers is an adventure all its own."

"What must be must be," said Warp, in a normal tone of voice. His headache had subsided at least that much. Standing, then stumbling and falling back to the couch, he grasped his head once more with both hands. "At least you don't know what it's like to stand up too fast. I can't see." The fox nearly shook his head, but knew that it would not go over well for him if he did. All he had to do was wait a bit.... "One second. Once second. Okay, okay, I can see again."
Warp gained his feet for a second time, the ferret on his shoulder. "You got a name, little guy? Becuase I totally wanna call you 'Twitch.' You're a fidgety li'l creature." Fox and ferret made their way to the elevator. "Come, come, a pair o' vermin the likes of we are not wanted here."

"Ah.....I see......" He said after he listened to the explanation that Berry had offered on how she 'became' whatever she was attached to. This was very intriguing to Koh, although also a tad frightening at the same time. It seemed odd and perfectly in place at the same time. Berry was now basically half machine, but at the same time it was required for her to stay alive. Since he could do nothing for getting her out of here right now, He'd do the next best thing.
"Ol'righ' then. 'ere, take my cell. I can ge' anotheh, an' this way you can keep in touch, eh?" He said as he tossed his cell phone over towards Berry. Getting another phone would be easy for him, and with the money he still had left over in the bank, he could keep the plan for both phones going for quite a while.
"I kin'a 'ave a faveh to ask, though. Any way I migh' be able to live 'ere for a while? I don' exactly 'ave a place o' me own. Mostly live in hotels an' wo'no', so I don' 'ave much to bring wif me. I can 'elp yeh fix fings 'round 'ere, too." Koh truthfully had been looking for a long term home, and so long as Berry was here this place did seem very livable. He had money in the bank, too. He was a wise investor and had a bit of stocks from several big companies to help keep a decent money flow, too. He'd just left his job as a S.W.A.T. member, though, and he wanted to get out of that old place he used to call home, so he'd been living in any hotel he managed to find his way to until now.

"You don't have to leave, Warp." Berry told him. "But if you wish to, you're always welcome here. And, Twitch sounds like a perfect name for him!" She smiled and giggled a bit. "And of course you can stay, Koh. I could set aside a floor for you, if you want. But, I'm afraid you'll have to help me with the cell phone..." To demonstrate, she went to pick it up, and her image fizzled as it touched the phone.

"While it is true that I need not leave yet," the fox said as he stepped into the elevator, "I'd like to get to that kit as soon as possible, and that means not waiting for it to get back here." He made a quick check for the ferret, then looked down and pressed the "lobby" button.
Then, something caught his fancy. "Hey, Twitch, look, we're going to "L!" Then he looked out at Berry and Koh. "Just kidding, we couldn't possibly. We're in an L-Evader." The fox snickered as the doors closed and he began to discend, wondering if anyone got the joke.

Koh seemed a bit surprised that Berry was only an image....err...so it seemed, but he walked over and picked the phone up anyway. "Su'e, I'd Like to stay a bi' if yeh think yeh can manage 'avin' me 'round." Koh said as he went back over and sat on the couch.
He heard Warp's little joke and possibly mistook it for an insult to the way he spoke. His accent actually made those words sound very similar to what Warp had said, so he frowned at Warp and raised his right brow at him. "'ey!" He shouted as the door on the elevator closed.

The joke was lost on Berry, but she gave Warp a cheerful "Bye!" before the elevator doors closed. She then turned to Koh. "So, would you like to take a look at some of the places that could easily be converted into living space? I could pull up some holos."
(I think the next round will finish this thread. idk. you guys decide)

Koh thought about looking around the place for a decent floor to call his home, but he trusted that Berry would have already picked several possibilities so he wasn't much worried about that. He felt the need to let her know more about the problems that came with Koh living here.
"Berry, I 'ave to tell yeh somfin'. If I do stay 'ere i's likely tha' my no good step brotheh will be poppin' up an' causin trouble.....no' normal problems eitheh. 'e an' I 'ave 'ad a tense rivalry since we were young, but recently i's star'ed gettin ou' of 'and. I'm no' su'e why, but I think 'e's tryin to kill me. Don' you worry 'bou' i' though. I think you'll find I can 'andle meself on occasionslike tha'."
After a long and awkward explanation, Koh leaned back on the couch and relaxed a bit. He needed to know what Berry had to say about this. If Acid knew they were friends, it was possible that Berry could be in danger as well.
