Aadibah was screaming through her teeth, spilling out just about every single profanity she knew.
"Damn it all!" She managed to lift her hand to the touchpad screen on her left arm, "I swear to go one of these days I'm dismantling you for parts..." She ran a diagnostic check, and the system registered a possible leak on her shoulder. It began pumping the last of the air into the spot, and sure enough Aadibah could here a hissing sound in her right ear.
Aadibah looked back up at the man, trying to use her eyes to give the message of "please just fuck off". Well, she had been doing that this whole time, but this guy was persistent.
Still, he had done everything to present himself as a non-threat, even tossing away the rifle when she was disarmed and vulnerable. Even if this was part of some larger plan of deception, the psycho was still offering his hand in assistance. At this point it was the only real option, and if he was gonna kill her there wasn't much Aadibah could do about it.
"Alright." She finally gave in, "You wanna help me? There's a roll of duct tape in my vest, upper left pocket, right over my chest." The soldier sluggishly gestured to it. "Right now I don't have the dexterity or strength, but you could take out the roll and use the whole to thing cover this-" Her head cocked to the side as if to point at the gash in the hose, "-so my suit can re-pressurize. How's that?" She watched for his reaction. Not just his words, but also his face, his body.
