Contact with the generator breaks as Rinzler collapses, but considering how much the program is arcing, getting that wire unplugged was still a good plan. Conversation, on the other hand? Is going to take a while.

Noise stutters in harsh clicks, Rinzler's entire shape glowing from within as charge crackles through the enforcer's circuitry. Even through the obstruction of his suit, finer lines of light are visible—as well as cracks that seem to split and seal, shell both too damaged to hold together and too charged not to.

If inputs are even functioning enough to hear Tex's commentary, Rinzler doesn't give much sign. Internals are scorched, processing scrambled, charge bleeding much too slowly through the points of contact down to ground.

That was a bad idea.
