Don't Trust Your Senses
Jacen Nimdok
Slip followed Nimdok back inside, where there stood Bithia. She seemingly knew something was up. Nimdok tried explaining it to her. Then he started asking her questions about their life back then. Slip saw what he was doing, the cheeky bastard. Slip would have to mention this "Elise" character to Red when he got back from whatever it was he was doing. Seemed like Nimdok has gotten yet another girlfriend. This guy had way too confusing of a life.
Then, Nimdok told her to get a glass, fill it with water, and then drink it. Surprisingly, she obeyed, except for that last part.
Interesting. So water was one of her weaknesses. That could be useful in the future. Slip made a mental note of that. Nimdok told her to pour out the water and then crush the glass in her hand. Once again, she obeyed, crushing it in her bare hand. So, she was programmed to follow his every order.
Nimdok told Slip to come over to him and Bithia, who was sitting down in an arm chair. Slip came over, but the shadow man stayed where he was. The shadow man looked mildly peeved whenever the automatic vacuum zoomed right through him.
Slip pulled a programming needle out of his pocket. "Hey! I might not be like Red, but I was still trained like him! You know, always prepared for anything? Or, in my case, mostly everything." He shrugged.
Then Bithia seemingly had a panic attack, jumping up and holding up her fists. No amount of pleading from Nimdok would stop her.
Slip looked at him. "Which part? You mean the one where Red brought an actual flamethrower and sonic weaponry, which had a massive effect on his biot? Or the part where Inanna, not as well equipped as Red, barely escaped with her life?" He replied sarcastically. "If you're asking, no, I didn't bring anything that has an effect on her. Who do you think I am, Red? That guy's crazy! One time I saw him beat up five pirates with some electrical wire and a chair! I most definitely do not own a flamethrower!" He said. Slip sighed. "Remember what she said earlier? That water will damage her? Know any good lakes or ponds nearby?" Slip asked him, using his knowledge from earlier.
Slip pulled out his lightsaber, igniting it, the green blade matching his hair color. "Just point me in the direction of a body of water, and I'll do the rest. This shouldn't be too hard, at least it isn't the one that Red was fighting." He said.

“I can’t,” she replied. “It will damage my insides.”

“Slip, do you have a programming needle?”

"Those visions of yours didn't reveal any of the biot's weaknesses, did they?"
