[Finding a new filter was going to be a pain in the ass, especially since this one looks specialized to this machine. Guy doubts they'll be able to find another replacement. Therefore, it's gotta come out so he can see what's really broken.]
[Grabbing the wrench! He can do this much at least. Cause. He is actually quite used to hanging around people like a dog stealing knowledge so sad. Passing it over he'll take the flashlight from Guy if Guy will let him, intending to hold it for him.]
Here.
[I'm sorry but this is officially waifu territory asks Guy if he wants a sandwich with the crust cut off.......]
Thanks. [He'll relinquish the flashlight to Zelos since it'll be easier to work with a wrench and free hand. All of Guy's attention is focused on the pump before him. The bolts should be here, and if he works at them a little bit he should be able to remove the filter itself.
He's not going to talk much during this portion, unfortunately, since he gets into a state where he just. Shuts everything out around him as he works. Before long, he's gotten the broken part when he pulls back, and he sets it out on the floor. After some more fiddling--]
Ah. There's our problem. It needs a new pressure gauge and seal rings. See these? [He points.] The gauge has been busted in. The rest are missing. Someone must've scavenged them. No wonder the water hasn't been flowing through.
[Zelos watches that. ...Honestly it's just sad how hard he is clearly concentrating on this. Reaching out he lets his fingers hover over the pressure gauge, eyes taking in every crack and dent before flicking to where the seal rings should be. That is true there were rings on the ones he saw in the other stations. He hadn't realized they did something...]
I can grab the rings from one of the stores. I've seen them in one or two. But the gauge...
[He hadn't seen one of those at all. There's not much he could do unless he were to build a new one. And that would take him quite the amount of time to figure out and actually rig. If he even could. He glances at Guy.]
Well, you wouldn't have called me if I couldn't. [Guy grins at him.] I'll do my best. I can't guarantee anything without the right parts, though.
[He's a good mechanic, but no one can work on nothing. He picks up the broken gauge, turning it over in his hand to see the extent of the damage.] The rings should be our priority, though. You want to get this entire station up and running again, don't you?
[No he's just doing this for his health don'tchaknow. Nah, Zelos nods. He doesn't particularly feel compelled to explain himself to Guy. Maybe that's unsociable, but in the end do his "whys" matter? Not particularly as far as he can tell.
Setting aside the flashlight he straightens.]
Well let's do this now. There's about 9 others of these I need to fix so the sooner we're done with this one the better.
[He heads for the stairs. Guy can choose to bring the part along or not; Zelos feels like he's eyeballed the needed sizes pretty well. He'll need to keep this in mind though...maybe grab a few extra rings in case other stations have similar problems... Caught up in his work sorry bro.]
[The 'whys' can wait. He figures the reasoning behind it was some manner of goodwill. If not that, it's still something that'll make their stay aboard this station a little easier.
Guy picks up the piece--it's to save themselves a round trip in case they need to match the parts--and walks after Zelos.]
... I don't have much else to do. If you need an extra set of hands, I can help you with the others, too.

You got a wrench on you?

Can you do something for it?
