[Otto's quick but deliberate about it. Approaching the door, a claw on the wheel finds it unlocked. He cracks it and checks out the interior by slipping a tentacle inside.]
They're not here.
[That machine is clearly active, but it doesn't appear dangerous inside. He opens the door properly to reveal the empty room, and steps in to look around. No sign of damage, save what's clearly old wear and tear on the machine itself. Despite what's happening up on the surface, it doesn't look like much of anything happened in here. He sidesteps some tracks in the dust - proof that others were at least here recently.]
We must have missed them...
[He narrows his eyes up at the machine. No obvious way to shut it down...it's not something that should be messed with lightly, he thinks, and probably not at all when his only company is a kid. Better to round up some other engineers and come back down later.]
