We may want to examine the bits. See wants going on. Maybe see who's pulling the strings on this thing.

"He's seen too much of life And there's no going back.
The loneliness calls him, And the edge which must be sharpened,
He's losing it. And he knows.
But there's a fighter in his mind and his body's tough
The years have been unkind, but kind enough." -Ocean Cloud (Marbles) -Marillion

Seryn stands at the edge of the balcony, coveralls already off and looped aroundthe cable left by Soul. She watches as Serenity leaps the railing and flys towards the doll, then holding the gun in one hand and onto the suit with the other she slides rapidly down the cable, keeping the doll insight until it is obscured by Serenity's wings.
By the time she lands however, the doll is already a sparking pile of bits and bobs...
She follows Serenity to Sould side and hands her the suit to use to staunch the flow of blood from his leg and his shoulder.
'get his leg in the air, up above his head, slows the flow.'
She looks round as JH puts the baby bits out with the extigusher
'JH? Can you grab his other shoulder? He'll need to go to the infirmary to get this patched up. Serenity you take his feet, keep the leg up high and the pressure on.
Cozen? Give that Llama a great big snog from me ok?'
She looks back at the cable... 'whoot! that was fun!'

*Finding a titanium ice bucket tucked back behind the bar, Washie takes a dustpan from the corner, scoops up the robobaby bits and dumps them into the metal container for later study. As she stands back up, baby's final resting place in hand, she feels a bit woozy, grabs the bar top for support. She grips the bucket tighter in one arm feeling a buzzing sensation where her hand is in direct contact with the metal.
Realizing the morbid and creepifying remains retain some latent power, she promptly sets down the bucket. "I'd like to assist on the techno-autopsy, and I think we'd better get to it quick-like before the thing's nano-technology dims to dead black. Thing's still got power, circuits may still be reading, but who knows for how ruttin' long it'll last. Who's got the no-how to lead the exam?"Pic courtesy of KellyofLuthien

Somebody secure these bits I gotta get Soul into the Infirmary for SimonWho to work on.
* thinks the Infirmary should be a bit bigger, as it seems to get far more use than any other room on the Tree*
*Runs over to Soul, Seryn, and Serenity and scoops up the Left side of Soul as Seryn stands across from him Scooping up the Right side. Serenity takes him by the legs and leads the 4 of them towards the infirmary, followed by others who begin turning on various lights and equipment, even the machine that goes "BING!". Most stand back giving SimonWho and the others room to work. Most. Serenity stands by Souls side holding his hand.*
*Finds a stool on rollers and moves it to behind Serenity who sits without taking her eyes away from Soul's.*
Don't worry, Everything's going to be ok. I hear SimonWho's really good at this sorta thing. We'll find out who or what did this, and there may be some retribution in the near future......
*Spins on his heel and heads back to the common room and assists in collecting all the bits. As he picks up one larger chunks of computer bits, a label in side catches his eye. He peers closely and sees........*![]()
*turns to ItsaWash*
I think TRM mentioned a workshop in main Engineering, Downstairs? TheGreyJedi might want to see this.

*While Soul, Serenity and Kelly wage their epic battle against poor Charlie, cozen disengages himself from Schwartz and adjusts a few straps binding other peoples' stuff to the llama. He feeds Schwartz one of Serenity's yummy garden carrots, whispering lengthy and detailed instructions that pretty much add up to "scram"!*
*He recognises a good distraction when he sees one. Whilst Serenity slices and dices, Seryn zings along her line and Jadehand douses flames, cozen actually does something remotely honourable by attending to the uncouncious and heaviliy bruised Mai. He then gently picks Mai up and carries her away to his room in the East Wing. There he will set Mai upon his bed. Then he will take inventory. Along the way he tosses the remote into the garbage.*
*Hopes Washie didn't notice....*

Eh, what's in a name?

Seryn remains with Simon, helping him clean and stitch up Soul, though probably hindering more than helping. After washing her hands she goes to the bar and makes serenity a large mug of tea and takes it back to her, arranging Serenity's limp fingers around the warm mug.
Leaving the infirmary she joins JH at the bar. Seeing the label JH is looking at, she raises an eyebrow and looks at him...
'thats never a good sign'
She looks around 'where is Mai?'

Right, let me see. I appear to have a line of patients, mostly bruised, but one impaled with what appears to be an Olympic class ice pick in his shoulder.
*examines it in more detail*
Okay, it looks like the pick has been driven deep into the shoulder. Let me just give you something for the pain Soul. Okay, right, to remove the pick itself will require some delicate surgery and a large amount of...
*yank*
Oh, stop shouting, it's out now. Right, let me just apply a synth-suture along here... Good. That's stopped the bleeding. I recommend a nice rest, plenty of orange juice and a decided absence of being stabbed in the shoulder any time soon.
I'm sorry, did someone mention something about psychotic robotic infants?

No, that tends to not be the best sign ever.
*looks around*
Mai? oh umm, let's see......
*pulls out the handy little comlink thingie and pushes a few buttons.....looks at read out, and closes the comlink and slips it back into his pocket.*
Oh, She's in Cozen's room.
*pours another pint of Cider for himself.*
What can I get for you then?

*KellyofLuthien follows everyone into the infirmary and washes Soul's blood off her hands. Noticing Seryn hand Serenity a mug of tea, Kelly walks over to Serenity and places a hand on her arm.*
"I know you'd probably like to stay here with him, but let's get you a more comfortable seat. You've had a stressful day and need to rest, for the baby and for yourself."
Kelly finds an extra gurney and helps Serenity up on it. She wheels it over close to where SimonWho is working on Soul. Serenity flinches as SW yanks out the ice pick. Kelly smooths Serenity's hair.
"There. Looks like the worst is over now. I'll leave you to be patched up by SimonWho. Simon, please make sure she rests."
Kelly leaves the infirmary and heads back to change out of her dress, which has been splattered with blood. On the way, she stops by the bar and retrieves her bow and quiver, replacing the two arrows she fired into Charlie's hands. Walking to her hanger, she thinks she'll try to find Ath after she changes. He'd want to know what happened since it involved his sister.*

With Soul being whisked off to the Infirmary by Seryn, Serenity, and Jadehand, TheRealMe looks around the rest of the Common Room. It is a shambles. The great winds blowing through have left the place in great disarray. He takes some time to ensure that the airlock doors are secure, reconnects the automatic airlock controls, then wanders about righting furniture and collecting the many scattered DVD sets.
From near the bar, ItsAWash has gathered the pieces of the Baby3000. Jadehand and Seryn have, by this time, returned. Jadehand points out the ominous Blue Sun logo. Wash wonders about researching the baby bits.
TheRealMe walks toward her. “Well, Wash, I have some expertise in robotics. Moreover…”
There is a moan. Wash cocks her head, then walks over to open the door to the brewery, to the right of the bar. A tall woman falls to the deck by Wash’s feet.
“It’s the bartender!” Wash calls back.
On the floor, Trey moans again, holding her side. “Gorram little doll took me by surprise and stabbed me!”
Soon, TheRealMe is at Trey’s side. “Hang on, Bride3. You’re suffering from decompression sickness as well as that wound.”
She winces. “What? What did you say?”
“Some hearing loss can also be expected.” TheRealMe turns to ItsAWash. “Wash, I require your assistance.”
With that, TheRealMe holds Washie in a tight embrace and gives her a kiss:
“Thank you, Wash.”
TheRealMe grabs the resulting kissie with both hands and firmly plants it down where it can see Trey’s suffering. The cute adorable creature sniffs the blood, then pouts and gets large sad eyes. It scampers over to Trey, coos a bit, and snuggles against her side, transforming itself into some kind of bandage to seal the wound. The bleeding subsides, and the kissie’s anesthetic properties ease Trey’s pain. She passes out.
“Washie, Jadehand, Seryn? Can some of you help me get her to the Infirmary? Then we can get to work on the doll.” TheRealMe pauses, thinking. “Actually, somebody should bring those doll bits and we’ll toss them into the brig until we’re ready for it!”
While they are carrying Trey up to the Infirmary, TheRealMe looks over his shoulder. “Say, has anyone seen Mai?”
