Well, those who were interested in heading to the pizza place, to clear it out, are easily able to make their way to it. And...it's quite run down. No cars are in the area nearby, a few hobos creep around near the building. It's in an absolute SLUM of an area. And, the place's name is barely visible. "Andy's Pizza". And, it has a picture of a large, Animatronic Armadillo on the front.
There's no sign of Dima's car anywhere in sight. Looks like there's nothing to do but wait around for everyone to arrive. It...does NOT look like a fun place to be, though. Place gives everyone the chills.

Properly equipped with an additional jacket to face the harsh cold of the outside world, Robin approaches the... apparently entirely abandonded part of the town. Her hands are in her pockets and she is whistling somewhat familiar tunes on her way there, as she comes on her own like young women should in such a scenario. She stops by the empty parking spaces, and claps her hands together "Somebody... or rather, everybody, must have really forgotten that this place... exists, for a couple years atleast. I wonder if I should find the place creepy, or the fact that people would just forget about it and leave all this place in simple disrepair" She thinks out loud.

Alastor walks up and leans against a light pole in the parking lot. He looks around and smiles. "A desolate place to relax. Might just make this my new get-away from everything." He is completely oblivious to Robin's presence, seemingly wrapped up in his own thoughts.

Felix walks up to the old, abandoned Pizza Place, Andy's Pizza. He's wearing grease stained clothing which has a number of patches, both obvious and not, on them. It's quite obvious that Felix is not in his Sunday Best. After looking around at the neighbourhood, and the Pizza Place itself, he says, "Right, it looks like we're going to be busy today. Did anyone bring any containers, or anything? Because I'm thinking of starting now, and taking that Armadillo apart, so that it's easier to move and so that it doesn't take up as much bin space. And I'm starting on that because the door's probably locked."
Felix, acting on his words immediately, pulls out a screwdriver and wrench out of his Bottomless Bag of Production, and goes to take the mechanical Armadillo apart. Of course, these are only the first tools Felix takes out.
[Will make the rolls that I suspect, but aren't certain, will be needed here. Crafting 4, +2 due to Expert Advantage: Engineer (Electrical), Gear (Resources) - Bottomless Bag of Production, Racial Heroic Advantage: Persistent Speciality: Crafting Instinct & Racial Specialty: Crafting Instinct (Craft) (P). Uncertain of any costs that would be involved, so would like clarification. And would like to know if I should have included Gear (Resources) in that list or not, and what benefits/penalties I gain for doing so.]

"A container... now if I wouldn't have been too distracted with the idea of visiting a restaurant that is haunted by ghost robots, I might have actually thought about bringing something usefull with me. Got nothing sadly, but we might aswell find something like that lying around, if we're lucky." Robin replies, getting to move as she walks around the proximity of Andy's Pizza. She considers the silent treatment of the other one to be a sign of tension, such can happen easily, especially with this almost clichee setup, so she does not fruther think about it, as she gets to work... or attempts to do so, atleast. After all, who knows what other 'long' forgotten curiosities she might reveal here!
(Robin checks for something of interest, including things that might actually aid them in their task, maybe an abandonded mall cart someone left or an old basket, something they could potentially use to carry the detached part away with easier. I think I have to roll... Perception right ? I shall do so)
uhIjW8g5 (Well... add a +2 from my natural skill bonus onto that roll. So a 2 total.) ···

Robin...can't see anythign that would be of use. Crud. She can, however, see that the door is apparently unlocked. If only because, as she looks around, she idly leans on it, and realizes it gives. Fortunately, the Jurugumo is able to easily keep her balance. Still, that's surprising. Shouldn't a place like this be locked up?
FElix, meanwhile, is easily able to take the mechanical armadillo in front apart...turns out there's a good bit less 'mechanical' to it then it looked. It was essentially just a frame with a costume draped over it. Still, that leaves him with an Armadillo costume!
(Okay, Felix. Here's how it works. Anything labeled as an ADVANTAGE always uses its bonus. Nothing needed. Anything labeled as an asepct with (P) on it, always uses its advantage of +2, to anything that it might apply. Any OTHER specialty or character aspect? They ONLY give their bonus when you use a Fate point...and you can GET a fate point back, if they give a penalty for some reason. Which many can. Note also, that Persistent Specialty (Crafting Instinct) Is just an upgrade to Racial Specialty (Crafting Instinct). So, Crafting Instinct is an addition to your sheet. Forged Tough, as well, (As you did) So, things that ALwAYS apply without FP are...)
(Crafting Instinct(P), Herculean Strength, Tool Time, Engineer, Shard Crafting. And, if my math is right...you got a 5.)

Niko pulls up in her car and parks it nearby, popping open the trunk of her car open to retrieve her handguns, a couple of fully stocked clips for them and a Maglite, neatly sliding them into her jacket's holsters and going to join the others.
"Evenin'. Andy's, huh? Wonder if there's anything good inside." She wonders if she'd be able to fit an old arcade cabinet in her car... probably not, all things considered. And that's if things go south.
"Pretty sure my dad came here when he was a kid. At least, that's how old it looks to me..."

Alastor steps out of the parking lot to join the others. "Wonder how long it's been shut down. Looks like it's in pretty bad disrepair." He looks over Niko's jacket. "Nice jacket, I would ask where I could get some holsters like those, but unfortunately, I'm no good with guns. Prefer my fists to anything else." He looks around at the group. "So what do you guys have planned for this place?"

Robin appears surprised at the open door, and carefully pushes it open "...I wonder if they just forgot to lock the door, or if someone has already broken in...I'll take a look at it" With nothing in hand to help the others take apart that armadillo, she decides to further the investigation, and steps inside! Now she'd get to see how such a pizza place would look like from inside... given she finds a light-button. Shame her mother wouldn't let her out to such places, she was always overly...careful about public places.

Felix looked at the Armadillo costume he had taken off of the mechanical armadillo. Looking around, he asked, "Anyone want this, or should I throw it out?"

Alastor looks over to Felix. "I would suggest you keep it, never know when it would come in handy. Might want to group up though, seems one of us wants to get ahead of the group and we can't have that, now can we?" As he finishes his sentence he gives both Niko and Felix a smirk.

Robin can soon make her way inside, and the place is...ugh. Disgusting. It's covered in dirt, and grime. Just...messy as HECK. Rubble everywhere. Papers strewn about, dust filling it. This place needs a maid. Pity they don't have that Seraph. It's not QUITE pitch black, but the sheer amount of flickering the power gives...does not make much credit for this place.
It's a dump. No wonder Dima likes it. It just SCREAMS occult.

Felix, after putting the Armadillo costume on the ground near the door, shaking his head at what Alastor said, looks inside the just opened door. He looks around and says, "This place needs some steady light. Hope this works correctly."
Felix then pulls out of his Bottomless Bag of Production a tall and thin metal box, with one open end. He stands it up on the ground, and pulls from it a tall, long and thin metal box. Both of which couldn't have possibly fit into the previous container under normal circumstances. From the second box, Felix pulls out, you guessed it, another metal box. But this one's much smaller, being only about as big as the average home oven. After putting the latest box on a table, Felix puts the second box back in the first box, and the first box back into the little pouch that is his Bottomless Bag of Production.
Finally, Felix walks up to the only metal box he has left out. He places his hands on it, and focuses, trying to make the box generate bright light to be the room's consistent light source. He does this by making a small shard contained inside the box which generates light that leaves the box.
Manipulation: 3. Using Heroic Power's: Craft Power Item & Fateless Power Crafting. Shard Crafting +2 for creation of the shard. I don't believe that any of his other abilities kick in for buffs, but I could be wrong.

Robin coughs a bit at the sheer abundance of dust, frowning "Now this is not scary or athmospheric, this is just a nightmare version of an attic! I'll go further in, you work on the light, the flickering light suggests there might be some electrical hazard... or the power is just running low. Who'd leave the lights on in this place... and which company would keep providing the place. I would totally wanna sign up on these guys though." She says, carefully stepping further in, due to the bad lighting. If Dima went ahead and hid inside in order to give them a nice scare ? Robin would atleast give her kudos for trying.
