Having rented a vehicle to carry the massive beasts head, because luging it around town would raise to many eyebrows, Braun and Tohyo head to Tohyo's lab so they may continue to poke and prod at it. Braun was a little worried that his snapping at Spiess would maybe cause some complications in their study of the head but since Tohyo seems more or less calm about the situation, he'll just wait and see.
Eventually, Braun and Tohyo make their way to a loading area that that allows for more cumbersome items to be brought into the building and both set to work to getting it to the lab. As they do so, Braun begins talking "So what do you want to do with the head before I rip to pieces for parts? Its horns especially would make for a good weapon but I'm willing to hold off for now to allow you to satisfy any curiosities you got."

Well, the reason Tohyo was looking calm was because for the last couple days his body had been hurting like hell. With the awakening of his demonic blood getting closer, his body had started to mutate and his muscles had started to grow in response to the scarabs running rampant under his skin and stimulating them, tearing the fibers apart and rebuilding them anew In other words, he had muscle soreness all over Performer roll 15+9= 24 Luckily, he was more or less able to hide it "Actually, sir Braun, I was looking forward to ripping the head apart. Even if its a thunder dragon I'm not a hunter who values trophies just to look at them..."Lets ignore the multiple other artifacts that were decorating the room as trophies "I really want to know to what extent we can use each body part to create interesting things. I'm not very good at dissassembly of corpses, however"

24 beats Brauns MD of 20. Not going to bother spending a resolve Braun locked the surgical saw on his medicae tool in place " Leave that part to me. Make sure to take notes." said in a mock tone as if he was an instructor giving a demonstration. By the time he was finished cutting and peeling off the flesh of the disembodied head, it became apparent to Braun there wasn't going to be much that he could make with the carcass. Mainly because he and his companions blasted the ever living hell out of it and it didnt help that explosives were used while doing it. Sticking with his original plan of doing something with the horns Braun saws off the tips of the two massive hunks of bone, red sparks flying everywhere as he does so, and wrapped them in the zinogre skins to provide some insulation. Now it was a question of what to do with them. After a brief moment of pondering Braun lets out a " A-ha!" as he gathered some of the remaining skins and began affixing the horns to the underside of his bolter in an attempt to craft a dual-pronged bayonet. Crafts roll | 5k3 | 9 8 8 7 2 = 25 Satisfied with his work, Braun addresses Tohyo. " Gonna be honest with ya Tohyo, there doesn't appear to be much else we can use the head for. Even before I took a saw to it the head was mangled." Braun gives the head a slight nudge with his foot for emphasis " You got that necro staff from that fly so maybe you could... necro it or something? Make the head talk maybe? ...Look magic ain't my strong suit, alright?!" Feeling self conscious all of a sudden, Braun quickly continues " Well, since there aint much else I can do I am going wash up and do some perusing for more upgrades. Maybe even settle the favor I owe Treble as well." After doing some finishing touches to the bayonet and cleaning the blood off himself, Braun begins to head out " If you want me to help you with anything speak up or otherwise I'll be leaving."

Braun leaves Tohyo's lab, since there isn't really much else he can do with the head, and heads to the merchant districts for more cyberware. Some might say that Braun is developing a problem but he figured that a three way war between 2 different groups of zealots and a corporate entity to be a bigger problem. Not to mention the Modrons supposedly waking up... Not going to think about that! Pushing the uncomfortable thought to the back of his mind, Braun makes his way through the various chop shops to get his hands on two pieces of hardware that he's been eyeing for a while now; a Sandevistan speed boost implant and a fully cybernetic bionic spine. Wealth test - best Sandevistan (TN 15) | 4k4 | 9 7 5 4 = 25 K'vend'l makes final rarity Uncommon - Acquisition time 1 day
Wealth test - best bionic spine (TN 20) | 4k4 | 28 9 9 6 = 52 K'vend'l makes final rarity Rare - Acquisition time 1d10 days | 7 days
