The Rejected Gear
A place for those who feel outcast or forgotten by the steampunk community or in life. Grab a chair, have a drink, and have a jolly good time with jolly good company. There are people in the world who suck and this is an escape.
The underground life isn't for all be we are out there.
My name is Alex ,the owner, and I'll be your bartender
Along with Ara, the other bartender
And Simon, the Demon King Monkey!
Welcome to the world of steampunk, and If you are new we will gladly help you with anything you need. And check us out for whiskey Wednesday's, where whiskey is free.
********IMPORTANT********
There is an underlying story and/or parts there of, that is followed from the Airship Alicia Grey and The Airship Battle Royale. It is not the main focus of the Gear, but It does happen from time to time. The events are scripted at first, but remember your input changes the script.
This role-play bar, is a light hearted dose of fun. It has its serious moments but the Spirit of the Gear is about comradery, having some drinks, and experiencing everything and anything. The more veteran gear posters will help out the newer Gear Goers with any questions, or ideas.
The gear is designed to help develop your characters if you would like. Feel free to message T.R. Harrison, Arabella Porter, or myself, if you have any questions.
WARNING: HAS BEEN KNOWN TO CAUSE: LAUGHING, GOOD COMPANY, AND ALL AROUND FUN!!!

He laughs and pulls up a chair as well. Sitting down he rests his cane on the bar and takes a sip of his scotch. Taking a few puffs of his pipe before he starts.
"Well let's see. Annabelle went on our honeymoon which went quite well. It wasn't until after we'd been back for several weeks that issues arose. We were arguing a bit. So she decided to take a small vacation on her own and I was ok with that. The ship was lost at sea somewhere. To this day I have no idea where she disappeared to. I have returned to life as usual though. The lab is still going strong and my income is as healthy as always." He chuckles and winks at that.
"Other than that very little has happened. How about yourself? Or Miss Arabella?"

*Raising his hat and brow* Wow, Wil, I'm sorry to hear. I had no idea. Well, I hope something turns up. Both of you guys were gone for quite some time, I thought you two were just having too much fun.*Pausing for a moment and puffing at his cigar*
Well, Ara is up to her same old tricks. She has been busy with the widow and hasn't been around too much. On my end not too mu......oh, hell. I build an airship. *Laughing* I suppose that's new. The Archimedes. She's gorgeous. I just got her back up and running....that London incident I mentioned...Doing a live test on an envelope deflation/inflation system for emergency decent at about 70k feet or so...well....she didn't reinflate..*chuckling* That was a rough day...short side of the story.....Took the lab down with it...didn't destroy the city.....After I got that up an running, got back in to the bounty hunting game to recoup some funding and it's been pretty enjoyable. That's about it mate, otherwise, same ole.

"An airship?! Really? Sorry to hear she didn't reinflate. Maybe I could sit down and try and help you work out a solution to that. I'd be happy to invest in a new lab if you could use some funding too. Your designs have the potential to make a large sum of money and I know it'd be a good investment for me." Wil can't help but smile as he considers investing in a tech like Tim. The man was surely a genius.
"Shame to hear Ara isn't around much. Just isn't the same without the old crowd. And how about my favorite primate? Is the Master of Monkey Magic still hiding somewhere in this tesseract of a bar?"

*Chuckling* Oh I made sure to figure out the issue before I rebuilt her. Everything is just about normal again, thanks though mate. I kind of missed chasing people down in the streets *winking* I'm always game for a little excitement. I will let you know though. I have a mk3 system in the works. Simon is around here somewhere.....as wily as ever..Alex has been busy too, up to his same ole tricks. Hopefully Ara will be in soon. She is due...speaking of..*Getting up and hopping over the bar, pouring a glass of McCallan and hopping back and sitting* Better *Taking the cigar our of his mouth and taking a sip* YOu know, I still have that match box you gave me *smiling*
-

He laughs and takes a good sip of his scotch with a grin. "Still have those matches huh? I figured you'd have burned through them by now!"
He sits back in the chair and grins. "Shame you don't need an investor but glad to hear you have the Archimedes fully rebuilt. Would love to see her sometime and see what a madman like you could do with an airship."

*Chuckling and taking a sip* Oh I just refilled the box. Couldn't throw it away *Winking*
I think you'd like her Wil. Small but gorgeous and of course, in my style, over powered and too fast for her own good. Built an experimental Steam/electric high pressure boiler system with a prototype reactor. The AER i guess could be classified as the mk3 but at about 5ft tall, she's in her own class. 2 dual side mounted target-able disruptor pods, about dobule the size-ish of the side arm, center mounted, guided rocket and beacon launchers, protection barrier system, dual propulsion and the fun part is the bottom mounted disruptor cannon. Shes about 10ft long and packs on hell of a punch, if you can imagine. She is a power hungry s.o.b though. Definitely my kind of bird.

Wil laughs and refills his pipe with tobacco before lighting it again. The thick smoke filling the air around him. "Yes sir she sounds just like you like them. Small, gorgeous and desperately over armed. I can think of other times I've seen you attracted to the same."
He winks and laughs as he thinks for a moment. "So you built the same reactor system used to power that insanity suit you wear but large enough to power an entire airship?"
-
-
*Chuckling and shaking his head* Good one, mate *Winking* Maybe she'll stop in tonight. And I did. I figure the mk2 here has an output of a small city so the prototype in archy I figure could power a few London's. The boiled doesn't pull too much power but she'll flash boil a cold system in a few seconds. Defense, weaponry and the secondary propulsion have a bit more draw. They only time I've stressed her out was on the cannon initial test when I had the secondary propulsion engaged. I had to reinforce the main power leads after that too *chuckling* I can probably squeeze some more efficiency out of the cannon but she's a little finicky. I'd rather have excess power than not enough.

How much would it cost for you to build a similar reactor to run my lab? I'm having serious power issues lately when trying to run a few of my experiments that require large amounts of power put through the subject. The power supply to my lab is from the city and to be honest I highly suspect they are limiting the amount I'm allowed to draw. An internal power source may well be the best option." He puffs on his pipe, thumbing it to push the tobacco down.
-
-
*Grabbing his cigar, taking a few puffs and leaning back* Hmm, I'll have to think about that. I haven't thought the actual cost as I've been keeping this tech pretty close to the belt because it has some pretty heavy weaponization capabilities, hell, my rocket cores are essentially mini aer's..... but I know I can trust you. Id say you'd be more than fine with something half the size of the one in Archy, if not less. A few thousand pounds, maybe? *taking a few puffs, staring blankly in thought*
-
-
A few thousand pounds is more then reasonable. I'd have no issues with that. I have a secure underground room that could be used for it as well. It should work well for the set up and would leave me at least some reassurance that if anything goes wrong only part of my lab would need to be rebuilt." He laughs easily and puffs at his pipe while reaching over and getting another bottle of scotch to refill his glass.

*Smiling* You shouldn't have anything to worry about unless someone actually tampers with it. I've gotten then pretty stable....pending impact from 70,000 feet while running...*chuckling with a sigh* Shouldn't be an issue at all, Wil. Once she's on, she'll essentially run forever with adequate ventilation. * Taking a sip and a fuw puffs on his cigar*
