Well. He certainly has some energy to him, doesn't he. And he'd mentioned that he'd taken down a security sentry on the way in...he certainly seems capable.

Siebren is in the middle of working on another bot - the casing is opened, and he's using the tweezers to work bits of foliage out of wiring - when the man returns with another drone. Siebren takes a look and visibly starts. Every other drone had signs of natural wear and tear - missing casing, plant overgrowth, lack of power - but this one-

A sudden memory springs to mind - news footage of a riot in King's Row, of an enraged human swinging a metal bat into an omnic skull-

"This is...not right," he manages, still looking at the wrecked drone. "This looks deliberate."
