[While Percy's never run into the term "magitek" before, he can figure out what it means easily enough. He shakes his head again.]
I wouldn't either. But I'd be surprised if it had that much magic. So far as I can tell it's purely mechanical. [Like a clock, except for cleaning. It's honestly really impressive, and Percy wants to dig deeper into how this station and its automatons work.]
It'd be a poor training room if it didn't stand up to a couple bombs. [Especially if they're just smoke bombs meant to hide someone from view.] Something like that. My friends and I are adventurers, and sometimes I make them things to ensure we get out of fights alive. [Mostly Vex, honestly.] Usually it's special arrows. The smoke bombs are newer—I'd make them with wood, oil, tinder, and some powder, usually, if I needed to be quick about it. Here there's quite a few different substances I can experiment with.
