"I'm good! Meant to do that! Just a slight... steering miscalculation."
That wheezing response came from the floor where Toni was sprawled on her back, still catching her breath.
Cuts and bruises dotted her arms and shoulders, the little marks just visible beneath the skeleton rigging of the Mark VI Iron Maiden. Still in the planning stages the suit was minus any external plating, just a bare-bones assembly to hold wiring and the major hydraulics in place and it hadn't protected her too much from the impact as such...
She shook off a heavy layer of dust as she eased up from the floor, and started to disconnect the arm and shoulder rig. There was plaster in her hair and a bloodied friction burn on one side of her forehead that she seemed quite unaware of for the moment.
"Sorry, woke you up didn't I? I'll keep it down, really. Go back to bed if you want. I'm fine."
