Black groaned.
"Aw, shit, are you going to sing that crap again?" He chuckled, taking the offered cigarette, and smoking in silence as Jack sung. Finally, he said with a half-chuckle: "That brings back some good memories from back in the days." He got a distant look in his eyes for a while. Then, suddenly, he stood up following Jack. "Yeah, we need that piece of junk up and running." He moved as if to begin work on it.
As he did, however, a sudden sharp pain cut through his left arm. It was so painful sweat broke out on his forehead, and he had to take support against the Mako not to fall over, clutching the arm as he did. In the pain-induced haze he was in, he managed to pull out the plastic bottle with painkillers, pulled the cork off, and poured a pill into his mouth, swallowing it. As he did, slowly, the pain dissapated, and he exhaled, trying to steady his breathing. As he looked at the arm, he couldn't help but think, "You useless piece of shit". The arm was still being rejected by the body, and it didn't help that the host to the arm, Black himself, hated the thing.
"God damn it." He muttered, wiping his eyebrow. He turned to the Mako, and climbed up on top of it to begin the work anew.
