[It turns out, going to sleep and waking up 6 years later means you have to talk to a lot of people. He'd mentioned to the doctor the forge a while back, though, and since he was getting back into the swing of things, shooting an invite to the man seemed like the way to go.

He still wore his arm, the one the blacksmith back home had crafted, but Laurie was in the process of making him something that would, she claimed at least, be functional. He didn't even want to think about that, instead choosing to focus on the task at hand: learning how to smith one-handed. Aaron usually arrives at the forge early to get some time in before he's joined by other trainees and today isn't an exception. He's in an undershirt only (forges are hot) when the Doctor arrives.]

Hey, glad you could come by.

[Ten winches at what actually happened]

Electromechanical. Basically, when you wear it, the arm responds the same way your actual muscles do by electric impulses from your brain.

[dadenergy]

That's...something you can do?

[borntolove]

[A simple]

Yes.

[As he's looking around at the tools in the shed; no Flux Core Welder. They're going to be kicking it old school with the extreme heat it looks like. A mouth pop and picks up a small square solid metal piece and what looks like different width metal rulers and gets a scriber and presses that against the width metal rulers that rest on the metal square and afterwards there's a clear mark on the square piece of metal]

That's, in theory, is where you'd cut the metal and you'd draw an 'x' if a screw was to go though thar.

[Mind still reeling from what he'd said, and trying to follow exactly how that would work, most of what the Doctor does next is lost on Aaron and he blinks when he speaks again.]

...uh...what?

[borntolove]

[A hand behind his head]

This is just measurements and markings.

[Then a casual]

What's on your mind?

[dadenergy]

...measurements for what?

[He didn't recall them planning anything.]
