"Yes. That room would be fine." Limmy says. Silently hoping that it is not inside the aquarium.
Note: I forgot to mention that Limmy should have a translater so people don't have to read words of light.

"Uhh, here," Stripey says after pausing the video, his antennae twitching in discomfort as he stands up. He walks forward on spindly legs, gesturing for the device.
On retrieval, he slides a switch, and a translucent crystal of light surrounds him, shimmering faintly. He slides the switch back, causing the shield to fade, and returns it to Revver. "These things take a lot of power," he says, gesturing to ten bars on the side; only nine of them are lit, the final one having gone dark. "So you gotta keep 'em charged. Still, these things can block bullets better than a big rock."

Note: Is it like a bubble then?
"Is there a way to maybe, possibly, modify the shape of the crystal?" asks Revver, gears turning in his head.

Note: Pretty much the bubble shields in Halo, yeah.
The crustacean thinks. "Uhh, let me open it up." He takes the shield and unscrews the non-button side, revealing, alongside electronics, eight marble-sized orbs arranged in an octagon. "Yep, the shape's based on the way these photon freezers are arranged. I think we can move them around. Got a shape in mind?"
The Escgra hands Limmy his room card, room 450 to the right.

"Caaaan you try for a flat ramp like structure?" Revver asks, his grin growing wider.

The Sdribble wonders what the Cyclorotan is planning. "Gimme a sec." He moves the eight spheres into the shape Revver described. "Give this a try."

Revver moves to an open space in the store and pushes the switch. A translucent surface curving up off the ground materializes in front of Revver. Revver quickly rolls up the hard light ramp and hops off the other end, right back in front of Stripey. He flips the switch and the ramp fades away. Smiling triumphantly, he hands the hard light generator back to Stripey.
"I'll take two of those, one the standard bubble, the other a ramp, along with the rest of that," he says gesturing to the basket of supplies still on the counter.

Stripey nods. He pulls out a scanner to check the price for everything. "Alright, slide your card through here," he says, tapping a card slider.

Revver slides his Galactic Standard Credit card through the card slider.

Note: is it getting dark now?
73 had minor interest in the factory. Instead, he was more interested in the identity of the Uetiko hunter. "Additional hunter may prove useful as ally", he said quietly. 73 wanted to know the location and identity of the anonymous hunter. He reasoned the hunter was caught in a worst case scenario, due to the level of destruction achieved. From this, He also reasoned the hunter might be ill equipped to deal with Uetikos. If he or she was still alive, they might try to grab new gear to account for any knowledge gained from the fight. These reasons, coupled with the fact that he might need such services, were cause enough to search for any weaponry dealers. He looked for information via his helmet.

Limmy goes to his room. Thankfully, not inside the aquarium. Now where are the other hunters? Opening up the holo computer, he finds that the most recent check in was by a cyclorotoran. He was on the floor below him. Room 311.

Note: Maybe late afternoon-ish?
Stripey nods. "Well, the new gear's yours. Thanks for stopping by!" He gives the closest thing to a thumbs up his insectoid hands can manage before he heads to the back, mind set on changing for less honeydew-ridden pants.
73's results show that the closest arms dealer is Stripey's Hunting & Defense. The Uetiko Hunter could either already be there, or returning to their hotel. Likely, if they bought gear, they would carry it back to their room.

73 pulls out a small, deep crimson pouch from within his bag. Embroidered on it, are two white eyes, surrounded by a black, winged serpent eating its own tail. It is in stark contrast to 73's black form and cold mind. Out falls a small, uncut, light blue crystal with the center being black like himself. It falls into the plam of his right hand. 73 just stares right into the middle of the crystal, almost in a trance-like state. After a few moments, the center of the crystal changes to a deep blue, then a blood red color, then black again. 73 seems to snap out of his trance, then places the crystal, and the pouch, back into his bag. 73 proceeds to look up the closest hotel and walks in direction of his result: Northwest Note: I flipped a coin.

"Thanks, Stripey!" Revver manages to say before Stripey hurriedly shut the door to the back room, chittering away to himself.
Revver shrugs and picks up his gear. He was originally planning on going to the pet store, but decided against it after seeing what the Uetikoes were capable of. He opts to go back to his hotel room and try out his new gear instead. Revver begins singing "his theme song" and blazes down the street back to the Nova Hotel.
On the way he whizzes past a towering stygian looking figure headed in the same direction.

73 notices a fast bluish creature speed past him. He's seen these creatures occasionally zipping from here to there, but never this close. 73 managed to catch just a glimpse of it's quicksilver mind in a jumbled mess of speedy thought processes and unintelligible emotions. He just stood still for about three seconds, staggered in a way, then continued on towards the hotel.
73 needed to get to his destination faster and broke into a run. He wasn't as fast as the thing that just flew past him, and nor could he ever hope to be, but he was fast enough to outrun most races and provide quick transportation. "Note: research newly encountered species for future advantage", he mentally noted as he closed in on his destination.

Revver arrives at the Nova Hotel. He zips through the lobby to the elevator, but not before stopping to chat with the Desk-gra (see what I did there?) about its day. Revver arrives in his room and empties his entire inventory out onto the dining table. On the table are: - His old armor
- Helmet with HUD visor
- Retractable forearm blades
- Holstered handgun
- Flashlight
- Empty container of water
- Some painkillers, bandages, and alcohol
- Towel
Along with: - His new armor
- Hard light ramp and shield generators
- Telescoping thermal tipped lance
- Holo-compyramid
- Pair of grappling hook launchers
He's just about to reequip some gear and go for a hunting trip when he hears a knock at his door. (done)

Limmy goes down the elevator and walk over to room 311. Knocks, and does not get a reply. But the elevator dings. Someone stopped on this floor. Limmy decides to go invisible so he doesn't look like a creep standing outside of someone's room. But if it is Revver, he might give him a fright. The elevator door opened and Revver entered his room so fast that Limmy had no chance to stop him. He became visible again and started rapping on the door.

Revver rolls over to the door and looks through the peephole to see who is outside.
A Grenebolym! Revver had heard of these from his older brothers. They were a race of assassins and not to be trusted.
Revver quickly grabs his handgun from the table, and answers the door so that it is hidden from view.
"Hello there," he says to the Grenebolym. "Can I help you?"

Limmy makes the universal sign of peace, and asks him to please holster his gun.
