Got it! Sorry, we got confused about the wording. Now then!

There's not a whole lot that can go wrong with this process; the wombat's Technomancer dad is in charge, and he's very firm in the fact that he'll take over entirely if anything starts to go sideways. Still, he welcomes her assistance, especially when he learns she's a Technomancer who knows Healing Word. After a thoughtful look at her, he decides maybe this is a good time to teach her a new trick.

Healing magitech beasts requires a unique skillset, you see. Most of the time magical healing techniques don't really work on them! But for somebody attuned to both technomancy and healing magic, there's the possibility of tweaking healing magic to serve inorganic rather than organic creatures. In other words, she can provide the magitech wombat with some magitech Tylenol while it's getting its repairs done!

The instructions the technomancer gives Sayori are, admittedly, vague. All the same, after a few tries, she gets it! (DC 13; +2 Academic Healing Word +1 Technomancy = +3 = 15 + 3 = 18) The wombat gets a little less fussy, settling under its caretaker's precise touch. The technomancer gives a gruff laugh and explains that this is the wombat in a good mood, and she's done a good job.

The repairs themselves go quite smoothly. (DC 12; +1 INT +2 Prodigy +1 pain relief = +4 = 4 + 4 = 8) Even with her use of Prodigy and Mage Hand, there comes a point where the technomancer shoos Sayori out of the way, declaring it too fiddly a moment for an amateur in the mix. Nonetheless, everything is resolved quickly and in the end, the wombat sits up on its haunches.

The technomancer trainer hands it a Kindness Rock. Where did he get that? Doesn't matter. The magitech wombat slowly crunches the rock into little tiny rock crumbs while making direct eye contact with Sayori. Then it screams. The trainer claims this is a sign of acceptance and affection? So that's good, although kind of terrifying.
