1. Action, around Union in the general vicinity of Gilgamesh Wulfenbach's Workshop

Throughout the day, a duo (and by duo we mean "pretty much only Ezreal") have been moving back and forth between the workshop and any number of other areas. He can usually be seen carrying large and rather heavy looking loads of scrap. Ancient Golem the Tyranitar, Dragon the Charizard and Vilemaw the Metagross have unfortunately also been conscripted to assist, and none of them seem to be in a particularly good mood about that, judging by the low, constant stream of bitching and swears coming from Ezreal's mouth as he carries and inevitably drops the large pallets

2. Action, inside Gilgamesh Wulfenbach's Workshop

Later that night, the door has been flung open, likely due to the immense heat emanating from the workshop. Ungodly sounds, banging, clanking, drilling, and the occasional explosion can be heard, as well as the occasional explosion of human voices

"No you can NOT set the drill frequency that high! You'll melt the rock straight into the cockpit you moron!"

3. Video

Gilgamesh stood before a massive, vaguely cylindrical shape under a cloth cover. He cleared his throat before speaking.

"If we are to be fighting underground, then we should take heed to remember that our battles are not limited to a mere two dimensions. Nor should we limit ourselves to the tunnels that already exist. To that end, I have built a device that will offer our forces considerable tactical advantage. BEHOLD!"

He ripped aside the covering to reveal what looked like a giant metal can, with a horrifying array of drill bits attached to one end and spiked tank treads running along the sides.

"My tunneling engine is fully capable of boring through ten yards of solid granite in an hour, allowing us to strike at Gigas's forces from just about anywhere in the tunnel network. The main compartment holds up to six people. And if the passengers are carrying some of Ms. Ryuuko's pokeballs, that can turn into a sizeable raiding party quite quickly.

With the power of SCIENCE on our side, Gigas' defeat is inevitable!"

[ She recognized that voice, even if she could hardly make it out through the noise.

Expecting Gil to answer, Lux is surprised when she doesn't see anyone open the door. Looking around, she only notices Zoing when it speaks. ]

Huh? Oh!

[ She takes a few steps back, holding up the bag. ]

Ah, I brought something for Ezreal and Gil. I figured that they haven't eaten yet.

Gimee.

[Zoing held out both...hmm, it appears to have lobster style claws instead of hands.]

[ ...Yeah, that would be Gil's handiwork, wouldn't it? ]

You mean I can't bring it in myself? I won't touch anything, I promise.

[ She doesn't want anything to explode on her, after all. ]

Nuu.

[Gil's voice echoed from the recesses of the huge hulk of metal that dominates the center of the workshop.]

Zoing you're my assistant, not my warden. Just let her in.

[ Zoing, huh? That gets a bit of a chuckle from the blond, who pats the pint-sized automoton on the head as she passes. ]

Maybe next time, Zoing.

[ Good Savior, what were they working on? That was a lot of metal. She calls over all the clanging. ]

Do I want to know where or how you two got all of this in here?

Your fiance has proved a very able minion.

[By which he means that Ezreal and his pokemon carried most of it in here.]

[INCOMING WRENCH AT GIL'S HEAD]

[ Okay wow why are you friends with him again Ezreal? ]

What is all of this anyway?

[Gil, expecting the wrench (or at least something thrown at him.), ducks it. It's all part of their banter. It's a guy thing, don't ask.]

It's yet another way to ruin Gigas's day.

[Ezreal comes swinging down from above a heap of parts. Also known as junk]

This will help us bust through the underground!

Really? You created something that useful? I'm impressed!

I'm more impressed with whatever you've got there, right now. It smells good and I could eat a snorlax right now.

Thanks, Lux. Where did you pick that up? Gil's right, smells good.

[ She beams a bit proudly. ]

A small Calderan restaurant that just opened up in the business district. I told them to put a bit of extra spice in there for you, Ezreal, just in case.

I also picked up a bit of coffee, to keep you both going.

Coffee, not tea?

[Off in the background, Zoing looks incredibly scandalized. Gil looks faintly disappointed, but not very. He feels like he's tried coffee before, but for some reason he can't remember that night very clearly.]

Oh well it'll do. Thanks Lux.

[Not thinking about it too hard, Gil takes the cup of coffee and raises it to his lips...]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[A veritable barrage of energy beams flies out of Ezreals hands and blows the coffee cup to smithereens in Gil's hand]

NO COFFEE!
