Gadgets and Gizmos a Plenty

WHO: R2-D2 & C-3PO
WHERE: The Junk Pile
WHEN: Uh. Now?
WHAT: While pretending to be a Jawa, Artoo comes across an interesting find during his scavenging.
WARNINGS: N/A


     Between the deserts of Tatooine and the vast stretches of rock and space here, Artoo had to prefer the latter, if only because there was no constant source of sand getting into his circuitry. He never complained about that as much as Threepio, but no droid liked feeling gritty, especially if it impeded their functions.

     Yet as much as this was a planet intended for robots, oddly enough, it wasn't practical scale for droids such as themselves. It took forever just to get between temples, but staying around the Hub had proved most convenient for beings of their size. Still, Artoo thought that alternative modes of transportation wouldn't hurt. After all, he couldn't expect to be toted around by Cybertronians all the time, now could he?

     Such is why he'd dragged Threepio along to the Junk Pile to scavenge parts, not that he felt the protocol droid would be much help in that department, but he thought it would be a good idea to keep an eye on him considering that one day the droid had shown up with an odd new insignia tattooed on him. And Threepio always said that he was the one that got into trouble!

C-3PO canted his head. "Already?" They had not even been among the junk for half an hour. Something was very wrong if his counterpart cut their little misadventure short. But it also worked in his favor. Heading back had been a priority, being away from all of this, being on leveled ground.

"Oh, I don't mind returning. It's probably for the better."
