[This is backdated to shortly after the Fauxbellion, and ties into this channel post.]
[Hidden Valley Bunker - Dummy Entrance]
Inside the false entrance to the bunker installation, Veronica's set up what looks like an office of sorts for herself. A desk and chair, a few boxes of broken parts she'd gathered up sometime after her arrival, and a few tools. Stuff to make her look busy, if someone came prying. Should someone enter, though, she's poking at her Omnicomm. Rex is lying on the floor nearby. The door to the outside is open, letting some of the natural light from the city in.
[Lucky 38 - Casino Floor]
Entering here, one will see a potentially spooky sight - a casino and bars, devoid of life. Some of the machines are running, and the lights are on, but it's still a place that's oddly quiet. There's an elevator in the middle of the room, and a few robots lying on the floor, or propped against tables or railings. They're roughly seven feet high, and have enough weight to strain someone a bit, even if they're dragging them on their wheel. Veronica's currently hauling one out of the elevator, and is clad in her power armor, sans helmet.
[Hidden Valley Bunker - Laboratory]
Some time after getting the few Securitrons moved to the bunker, Veronica's gotten down to work - be it on devising just how to make a reader for the Platinum Chip, tinkering with the programming Mr. House left on it, or testing out said tinkered programming, she's a busy bee.
The Securitrons are propped against the wall in a row, and a few crates are nearby, loaded with ammunition confiscated from them. After all, if the programming turns out bad, it's better for them to not be able to shoot the place up.

"Hey, be careful!" she calls out, jogging down and then up the steps leading to the elevator. "You got that? Let me help..."
Okay, so maybe she shouldn't sound so eager to help, probably. It could be that maybe she's trying just a little too hard to rebuild a friendship. Maybe. But, y'know. It could just be that she's trying to be helpful! Really!
Besides, it's her Endurance that sucks, not her Strength.no subject
"Good to see you're still around and kicking, though." A pause, then she chuckles. "But knowing what you've been through, that shouldn't be a surprise."
