The Harbinger searches for words of deception in the puppet's speech, but he doesn't find any. Sighing, he resigns to doing this Scaramouche's way, approaching the former Harbinger and looking down on him for a moment in frustration. If only he could just make things easier, but that wouldn't be in his nature, would it? But fine. If he has to play by these rules, he will, if only to move past this impasse they've found themselves at.
"Fine. Next time you wake, you'll be finished and we'll be heading to the Abyss."
The hole in the puppet's chest is still wide open, shoving his hand deep inside of it and pulling the plug once again, catching him before he falls over in the chair. Scaramouche will be put on the bed, asleep for weeks while the engineer rests, and is summoned back by Childe to continue his work- but now with the guarantee that the puppet will not be turned back on until all repairs are done. Childe will make sure to reward him generously, especially after getting stabbed.
-----
When the power is reconnected, Scaramouche will wake up to the sight of Childe personally working on his body, a black streak on his face along with a few streaks on his bare hands as he's doing the final touches. The hole that used to expose the core of the puppet gets covered, sighing now that he feels the job is finally over. The holes that adorned the puppet's back where the tubes had once been are now gone, everything seeming to be in order.
"There. You awake yet? The repairs are all finished."
