Life in the substation.

Life in the substation was good for the mad artist Bruyn.
There of course were always a few exceptions. He was still trying to resolve the coffee situation, currently building the Mk -II barista bot, and having sent some of his other steambots out to locate the world's greatest barista.
Then there were a few other annoyances. The contant hissing of pipes, the general dampness and humidity of a steam powered station, and the constant clanking of the boots of his many mechanical minions.
As for the noise he was going to retrofit his steambots with noise suppressing soles on their boots, and the noise of the pipes could be hidden under some pleasant music (note to self he thought - create a mechanical musician bot). The dampness would be a trickier issue but he felt confident he would resolve it.
In the meantime, it was back to the greatest emergency...the lack of good coffee.
