So it is that Penny becomes Ruby's Magical Talking Armour, giving her clues, distractions and, on occasion, using the suit's strength enhancers to move Ruby out of the way or to block attacks that Ruby hadn't seen.

So, Nuts and Dolts takes on a strangely more intimate form. I was thinking she puts her in an upgraded self-propelled Crescent Rose specifically designed to be retrieved in the event she is left unarmed and unable to call her locker.
