"I'm not sure either of us would," he utters. His power is back on for the time being, but it's definitely a patchy fix, one scraped together out of desperation. This crisis is not what Rey needs right now.
Nick takes a step toward the couch, but he's not walking so well, either. The dented parts and damaged wiring in his side that trail down to the limb make up one item on a long list of fixes he's going to need to get back into any kind of working order. Putting pressure on it brings up an error; there's a jolt through him as his processor tries to send power to it, but with the wires barely hanging on, he might as well be getting nothing at all.
The rest of him is powered up enough, though -- there's another spark from where he arm was, and the shock sets off a multitude of his sensors at once. The sensation is obviously unpleasant as he grabs at the ruined socket. "Damn!"
He collapses back into the easy chair, trying to dig his phone out of his pocket, knowing good and well he's not going anywhere, either.
