[ It's been a nice, easy thing to throw himself into work on the station. Well, maybe not easy, but it helps keep his mind off of the situation more often than not, a situation which is still a terribly disconcerting thing despite having been through all of this abduction shit before.

Luckily, it's even something he can do. He's used to odd jobs, doing whatever pays the best never mind what it is and who it's for. Retrograde technology is familiar. Comforting in a way he only admits to himself (and maybe Yondu who, after a while, learned to leave him alone when caught in the middle of it).

Work on the station's network--a frayed broken thing that the "internet" of his 1980s surpassed, easily--is just that: comfortable. Well, in a manner of speaking, anyway. Right now, he has him stuck halfway in a duct, scrambling for parts and looking for a shorted out connection that needs replacing. He hadn't cared much about being in the way, or how intrusive the overflow of his music is--bared out from headphones set off to the side like sad speakers (he'll have to do something about that later)--but he hadn't really anticipated being interrupted, either.

(Which, really, is practically begging for it.) ]
