5th Floor Common Room, Friday Afternoon
Friday, May 20th, 2016 10:04 amAn unopened box had been sitting on Ringo's desk for a month now. She'd remembered being really excited when it had arrived, but had quickly gotten distracted by a message from Kathy. (Funny to think that that was a whole month ago. And only a month ago.)
The box had been sitting in one place for so long that it had practically become invisible, and Ringo had been surprised when she noticed it sitting there after lunch, and her eyes had gone wide with some of that original excitement.
So now she was situated in a corner of the common room, a clean sheet spread out on the floor. The had been open and shoved out of the way, and now she was holding its contents, one of those quad-copter drones with a camera attached to it, which she'd bought "as is" off the internet. Which meant that it was broken. Which was fine with Ringo, since she'd already gotten it half-disassembled.
She wasn't some sort of mechanical genius or anything, but she'd been stripping down and building AirTrek for most of her life. Hopefully that experience would be enough for her to figure out what was wrong with her new drone so that she could get it flying again.
