When medication says “do not operate heavy machinery” they’re probably mainly referring to cars, but my mind always goes to forklift.
It has honestly never occurred to me that this warning was about cars and not construction equipment
I’d always assumed the “drive or operate heavy machinery” bit was talking about 2 separate (though kind of related) things!
“do not drive” (i.e., drive cars) / “or operate heavy machinery” (i.e., use forklifts)
Even given the slightly relaxed uniform standards in engineering, Techie sticks out like a sore thumb, in more ways than one. “Techie” is not even his real name, just a nickname, like he’s a ‘trooper or something. His bionic eyes were installed so poorly that his eyes are always rimmed red with irritation and rust, which he makes worse by constantly rubbing at them. He barely ever looks anybody in the eye, mumbling his technical expertise to their feet—or, if he’s feeling bold, their chest. And his hair is always greasy.
Matt is just crazy about him.
Dedicated to @somethingstately, because her Matt/Techie ficlets inspired me.
Matt and Techie do the do for the first time (Techie’s first time, Matt’s first time with a guy) under the watchful gaze of Matt’s Lord Ren recruitment poster. It’s been a rough couple weeks, so this is an exercise in pure indulgence.
