tadashi's your big brother, i'm taking it?
no way a buddy goes to bat for some punkass kid out to make a buck
not unless he's getting a cut of the winnings

yup, that's the one. which is why he feels that responsibility for me or whatever. setting an example and all that. if anything he was trying to stop me getting more over my head, as he'd put it.

which, okay we weren't really even in jail that long at all. but when he showed me the stuff they have in the lab i had to go there with him.

[He's actually liking this kid more and more. How's Hiro going to screw it up like everyone else? That's really the only question in House's mind.]

ugh
big brothers can be such PAINS
he should be thanking you
upping his street cred with a little jail time
all the BEST people want somebody with a rap sheet

big bro's got a lab
robotics
if he's stopping other people, he's not into bot fighting, then
so what's he in the business of building?

[Technically Hiro's already screwed up. A lot. But he's come back from that, with the help of his friends and marshmallow nurse.]

well we almost got out of there, his timing was almost perfect. and he still did save me from getting pummeled by yama and his gang at least.

but yeah, he's more interested in helping people. why he made baymax. robot nurse. pretty cool once you get past the marshmallow appearance. he was going for a 'non-threatening, huggable' look.

i bet you're only saying that because he monitors your tablet
i know how it is
*WINK*

a robot nurse?
my kind of jam
any chance he's working on a doctor version?
i know a couple of knuckleheads we could use replaced in the clinic

[Himself being one of them. Please send in the drones. Not having to deal with the clinic would be magical.]

wouldn't surprise me if he is keeping an eye on me with his.

not sure on the doctor version. but then, baymax is pretty impressive anyway. i call him a marshmallow nurse, but really he's a 'personal healthcare companion'. some serious coding went into him, trust me. he can scan someone and instantly tell what's wrong with them.

[Among. All the other upgrades Hiro did. But he should probably not mention that and get Tadashi suspicious and freaking out because he knows how Hiro is.]

the clinic though. take it you're a doctor yourself then or something?

me?
nah, i'm the janitor
i just have STRONG opinions on the level of patient care in my facility

[He expects Hiro will be able to tell that he is joking. If not. Well. Maybe the kid isn't as intelligent as he thought.]

so
instant diagnosis
that's handy
how does he handle unusual constellations of symptoms, ones that don't match up in his database?
grab the nearest doctor?

whatever you say, 'janitor' foreman.

[Yeah, Hiro totally doesn't buy that for a second.]

you would really need to ask my brother on that. he's the one that did all the coding and everything. i didn't have anything majorly wrong with me so it's hard to say. but i would guess he could handle plenty, from my experience with him.

[Hey, if Baymax can handle a depressed, moody, angry, grieving teen like Hiro. He can probably handle nearly anything after that.]

[Oh, Hiro.]

did you have something minorly wrong with you?

besides the diagnosis of 'puberty', you mean?

[Yes. Yes, he just may be avoiding the details on that, in the aftermath of the fire and his grief.]

if there's another one apart from that.

[You opened up this can of worms and House's insatiable curiosity, Hiro. You may wish you hadn't very shortly.]

nope. don't think the peanut allergy counts as 'major'.

[Going to just continue to avoid dealing with that. At least until he talks to Tadashi, obviously. If he talks about it at all.]

[Oh, Hiro. You little minx. House doesn't believe that's really all. But then again, he doesn't believe anyone is telling the whole truth. As he happens to like the kid, he'll back off for now. Better to catch him off-guard later.]

peanut allergy?
weak sauce
like the weakest sauce

hope you brought your epi

Edited 2015-09-23 15:56 (UTC)

yeah. tried to fool the marshmallow nurse that i was allergic to bacitracin but that didn't work. still i have one epi on me. anything after that i guess we'll see and hope to find more.

bacitracin?
if you're going to go big on med allergies
go REALLY big
penicillin, at least
screw with the system

lot of cuts and scrapes from the bot-fighting?

Edited 2015-09-24 02:24 (UTC)

i would have, if tadashi hadn't coded the thing to scan me and check. was fun to try mess with him initially though.

not so much the bot-fighting, though that was close. it was more the inventions and experiments i did with tadashi growing up. and stuff at school.

[Because kids are cruel and did not approve of some tiny nerd skipping grades, apparently.]

sounds like big brother's a serious big brother
no resentment?

[House doesn't bother to ask further about the school issue. He'd mostly avoided that by just being viciously standoffish. Being on the lacrosse team and shooting up past six feet fairly early had helped, as well...]

anything interesting you two invented together apart from the bots?

he's a nerd but he could be worse, i guess.

[It's only in hindsight that Hiro really realized how much Tadashi did for him. He's lucky to have this second chance with his brother at all, here.]

personally, my favourite is still the rocket boots we tried with the cat. but there was also the time we experimented with a shopping cart, or the bed trampoline thing...

he approves of experimenting on the family pet, but not bot fights?
inconsistent much?
rocket boots would be wicked right about now
bed trampoline's self-explanatory enough
but what exactly did you do with the shopping cart?

you'd have to ask him on the limits and rules or whatever, exactly.

i know, right? thrusters are easy enough. when i have access to the resources and equipment, anyway. As for the shopping cart, that was a combined thing. kinda hard to explain. easiest way is just saying we took a shopping cart and made some upgrades to it. because we could. which is basically what everything boils down to when we were growing up.

[ They really should have gotten into monster trucks. But robotics isn't a bad alternative. ]

only ever really got to experimenting like that on my hot wheels
the tracks mostly
the pre-made stuff is lame after the first few runs with it
pvc pipe's a godsend

[ And he might have developed monster truck style cars using his toys. Ones easily broken down, of course. Most of that had stayed in the U.S. with his mom when his dad had been dragging him around to different bases, anyway. ]

nearly at this gas station, though
i find anything for thrusters, i'll let you know later
i totally call dibs on the first test if i help, though

nothing is as awesome if it's premade though.

you let me know then it will be a matter of arranging to meet in person for this. but sure. you'd earn being guinea pig if you find what i need.

I prefer the term 'lab rat.' Later, kid.

[And he'll switch off the tablet after that to stuff it in his backpack, eager to get inside somewhere and maybe warm up his hands.]
