Tena was a mechanic.  The job she'd been... Forced to do, but she'd gotten good at it.  The petite sand cat hummed softly, brows creased lightly in thought as she crept closer. to the scene.  Her long tail curled up behind her as her head tilted slightly.  Tiny.  Two legs.  How quaint.  How misfortunate too. 

Tena had never worked on small contraptions back home.  It'd been large moisture vaporators.  Nothing but moisture vaporators most of the time really.  Boring work.  Nonetheless, Tena was a tinkerer, and she liked learning how things worked.  Her luminous blue eyes were locked on now, analyzing the small contraction and the sizzling wires.  Where did one even get wires out here?

Finally, her head tilted upwards, curious gleam fixated on the contraption's creator.  "I'm Tena." She offered a small, friendly smile, contrasting with the softness of her voice, traced with a careful distance.  "Do you need help with that?" She sure hoped so.  Genuine hope.  It would be nice to tinker again.
