I am in need of a part-time assistant. Only requirement is you must be able to see. 

At least some experience with tech is preferable

[The sound of metal is one of those sounds thats hard to mistake for anything else. Where human knuckles, an odd combination of soft flesh and hard bone, knock on a door they knock with a lower, dulled rap against. Meanwhile metal is inescapably higher in pitch and the sound is clearer, sharper, with none of the muting effect of skin. As such, Whistler's curiosity is piqued when he hears the sound at his door.

That was a new one.

Following the little guides he's set up for himself, objects turned certain ways so they act as a sort of compass to let him traverse his apartment with ease, he makes his way to the door and tugs it open]

Hello?

[And though he is staring straight at Nick, he only has a guess about who could be standing in front of him]

That you, Nick?

[Well, that confirms that. While it's nice every once in a while for someone to see him as more than a glorified toaster, it's different when this is one of those rare occasions where someone can't see him at all. Even so, Nick offers Whistler a smile, one that colors the tone of his voice.]

It's me. I told you if you needed help, all you had to do was ask, so here I am.

[The familiar voice puts his confusion to rest and his mouth drops into its usual lopsided grin. ]

That you did and that you are

[He steps to the side to make way for him]

Come on in.

[Sure, he has questions. 'Why does Nick sound like metal?' for starters, but its not exactly polite to interrogate someone who has come to help. So for the moment he is content to leave it.]

[synthedick]

[Nick steps inside, waiting politely for Whistler to shut the door.]

I take it you're building something?

[whistlewhilstyouwork]

Close, but not quite

[He shuts the door and begins shuffling past. His counters and his kitchen table are covered with bits of wire, gears, screws, whatever he's managed to collect over the two months he's been here. While it is an impressive collection, it is all laid out fairly neatly. There is a sense of organization]

I want to start building. But until I have a better idea of my inventory, I'm not building anything.

[synthedick]

[Nick can't help but be impressed by how well organized things are, given the circumstances. He nods approvingly, knowing Whistler can't see it.]

So you need someone to help you figure out what's what.

[Whistler reaches up and puts a finger to the tip of his nose]

Right on the money
