[visual] finally finished!

Topher turned on his tablet, and for a moment it showed the chair and system he'd just rebuilt, but he situated it on his desk so that it was broadcasting him sitting in a swivel chair instead.

"Hey, if anyone was looking for me, I'm done being a hermit now. It's all... rebuilt and such."

He didn't really feel like explaining what was rebuilt, but if someone asked he would probably explain. After all, Dawn had told him to spill away, right?

Then he adjusted the filter, so it was now filtered only to those he considered friends, or at least interesting acquaintances.

"So yeah. I think a celebration of some sort is called for. Anybody up for going out or.. y'know, opening a couple bottles around here?"

After being disturbed from her meditations by the tablet's habit of turning on without warning, Siri had decided to take a break from such activities to skim through the more recent entries to the tablet network. She pauses on Topher's, being that his a familiar face...and can't help but arch a curious brow at his words.

"Rebuilt? What has been rebuilt?"

"The... system I was working on. Replica of one I have back home. S'what I was working on."

Her eyebrows shot up in interest. "Oh? What sort of system is it, if I may ask?"

"Neurological. Mostly research, but it's for a foundation, of sorts. Personality wiping and substituting, on volunteers. They're with us for 5 years, and afterward they leave us, more healthy, and filthy rich. We can cure PTSD and schizophrenia..." But really, Topher's there because it's fun.

"But I rebuilt it because one of our volunteers showed up, sans personality, and it's kinda hard to work with them like that - they're like terribly polite children." Although she had been somewhat helpful, and a little more independent than he'd supposed at first... granted, with the knowledge he had now... well, he'd be keeping an eye on here.

"Rebuilt?" the Master questions, honestly curious and interested. It could be anything - something mundane as a piece of furniture, but there was always the chance that there was something else of excitement. "What exactly have you 'rebuilt' that calls for celebration?"

"It's a system..." Dawn told him to spill all, right? Here goes. "A system by which I can change a person's personality, specifically by downloading the old one and then wiping it clean, in preparation for uploading the new. Part of a project I worked on before I came here, and it was a little tricky to build from memory, let me tell you." Topher chuckled slightly. "But one of my previous Dolls showed up here, and I figured I ought to rebuild it, just in case. They're not very stable in the Doll state."

That peaks the Master's interest. Certainly nothing like fixing up furniture. He brings a hand up to his face and rub at his chin, hiding a grin. This was something he wanted to see. There was a lot that could be done with something like that!

And Dolls?

Fascinating...

"Well! That sounds like it does call for celebration then. I would toast to that for you."

"Thanks." Topher grinned. "I'm Topher - Topher Brink."

"Harry," he replies. "Do make sure to name a time and a place, hm?"

"I was thinking about going out tonight, actually..." Topher mused. "I don't s'pose you know this city better than I do? I'm not actually sure what the nightlife is like. Don't get out, much."

"I'm not all too sure myself, honestly. But then, that's what the hatches are for. After all, it's better to christen something new in the presence of it, is it not? It'd be a waste to go out into the nightlife."

Honestly, the Master just wanted an excuse to see the damn thing.

"Then I'll hatch a bottle of bubbly, and you can probably find your way here via tablet, right?"
