William arrives at the planet, there was a slight delay because... Warp. Fortunately there wasn't a demon incursion or any warpy stuff.
She introduces herself as Corporal Lisa, she has been in charge of his unit until he gets here. William then got a few reports of the local situation and the general information he'll need to perform his duty.
William briefly reviews the reports before deciding to make Lisa his second in command and make her deal with the problems.
Of course he worded is differently saying " hmm... I've read the reports and it seems that you've done a fine job. I'm impressed so I'll be making you my personal assistant and you'll be now in charge of the unit besides me"
William then added as a finishing touch "keep up the good work and I look forward to more of your hard work"
Lisa suddenly got shocked as she frozen for a moment.
'Did I just got promoted? But I didn't do anything worth mentioning' she thought
After a second she got serious and replied "Sir yes sir"
To which William just replied "please drop the for the formalities, William will do fine"
The rest of the trip William chatted with Lisa for a bit, though Lisa seems to still be very up tight.
They eventually arrives at a small town where he is stationed at. William made a speech to his men and unpacked his stuff to his quarters.
Days passed and it seems that Lisa finally realised why she got promoted to be his assistant.
It seems that William just pushed all the work to her while he slacks off.
From her observation it seems that William is quite fond of technology and is currently fiddling around with his personal cogitator he brought with him.
He also quite frequently visits the mechanicus for... 'important business' as he puts it, no doubt slacking off and tinkering some advance piece technology.
This obviously dissatisfied Lisa but none the less it's not her place to question, it is her duty to serve the imperium and fallow orders.
Although at first she is some what bewildered and very up thight due to his mask but as she get to know him better and his very lacks personality, she gradually loosens up somewhat.
Also recently he started flirting with her on several occasions but she just ignores his advances.
Anyway back to William
William spens his day with the local tech-adept responsible for the maintenance of the technology of the base.
William naturally asked her for help with his little experiments. She seems more than happy to help him.
Yes it's a 'she'. Even though in his past live there's hot robots chicks in anime but this is 40k! Not some ridiculous Japanese anime trying to make money by selling some fan service.
William is pretty sure that the face behind that mask is not exactly the type that is arousing or if there is a face behind that mask at all.
Yeah better give up any idea of that, if he doesn't want to do something that he would regrets.
Anyway so he tells 'Alyssia' (her name) about a few of his ideas, Which when asked where he got them William replied he had read them from old records somewhere.
'Can't remember exactly where but I kinda remember it goes like this' something along those lines.
Alyssia being a low rank member of the mechanicus stationed in the middle of nowhere naturally is more then happy to help him, being low rank means that much of the high technology is out of her reach.
And the stuff about William's idea is pretty much an STC for her.
This is not inventing of course... that would be heresy! she is just trying to rediscover lost technology. She is just filling holes in the design, nothing wrong with that, everyone in the mechanicus is doing that.
So she began working on carbon nanotube cloaking and various other projects.
Back in the 21st century carbon nanotubes cloaking is already a thing, so it shouldn't be to hard with 40k technology.
She seems very happy working with the cloaking device in particular as cloaking is considered high technology only available to assassins and special forces.
William is practically giving free stuff that would otherwise cost her a lot of time and resource.
In turn for these valuable information, she promised to do help him with anything as long as he asks she will gladly help him.
Also she gave him a Servo Skull, to which William suggested to try implementing a few of his ideas on the Servo Skull.
Alyssia told him she'll get to it as soon as she finish researching the tech.
Weeks passed
William now sitting in his office staring into the air.
He's bored... the technology he requested is now being refined by Alyssia. It's the repetitive experiments and verification, it's the boring part right or in gaming terms the grinding part which all players hate but game developers loves to add to pad out the game.
'Maybe that's why Asian players do better in video games, they are just better at grinding.' William reminiscent about his past life.
Meanwhile Lisa is on her desk is busy reading reports and finishing the pile of paper work that was supposed to be done by him.
So with nothing to do he stares at thin air in hopes of getting an inspiration of something to do.
He eventually went to the mechanicus to look at Alyssia progress.
As he was in there he saw a tech-adept carving a double headed eagle on a Lasgun, he stares at it for a while before a light bulb pops in his head as he looks a his plane looking chainsword and his bolt pistol.
William then inquired how to carve designs on his chainsword and bolt pistol.
Hearing that he wants to carve designs on his chainsword and blot pistol, Alyssia fearing he would just mess it up she offered to do that for him.
"I appreciate the gesture but I want to carve it myself" William replied
Alyssia frowns behinds her masks as she clearly can't leave him alone to do that, but she is also very busy with the maintenance of the various machines to the base operating at peak capacity.
But he is also in charge of the base... she thinks for a bit before she made a decision.
She showed him how to operate the various machines in the forge and asked one of her subordinates to monitor him, she would once in awhile pops in and check on his progress.
A few weeks passed
William steps out of the forge with a fancy well decorated chainsword and blot pistol, they are now glittering with gold and silver.
He naturally proud of his work as the various skulls, chains and iconography filled them. Even on the individual tooth on the chainsword has carvings on them!
'Looks like I out did myself' William thought proudly.
He walks back to his office with his shining chainsword and bolt pistol.
As he was passing by everyone in the base turns and looks them, William just puffs out his chest and pretends to ignore the while feeling ecstatic.
William is imagining them secretly saying "Wow nice sword"
Unfortunately not everyone is pleased with that as the moment he steps back into his office, he is meet with a cold stare from Lisa.
It seems that Lisa wanted to complain and give him a piece of her mind but she didn't do so. She just held her breath and swallowed it in without saying anything.
She eventually sighs as she gave up expecting anything from him and continues on finishing that mountain of paper work.
'They're not going to finish by themselves and the commander is surely not going to finish them' she though.
