Charlatans
“Unsettling are the days in which everyone is an expert.”
― Criss Jami
Nowadays you can't go a day without some phony prophet trying to peddle their wares to you.
Driven by the increased interest in the supernatural, charlatans from palm readers to televangelists are everywhere. And while the vast majority of witches, psychics, magicians, hypnotists, cures, potions, faith healers, and clairvoyants are complete fakes, they do make a living.
As the saying goes, "it's easier for an actor to make it in alternative medicine than Hollywood."
Most people scoff at these clearly-phony supernatural services, yet those same people often buy into at least one scam.
The most dangerous charlatans are the self-styled monster hunters who carry a mall-ninja arsenal and guns with silver bullets. Most have never encountered anything supernatural and do absolutely nothing besides burn some sage and patrol the area for a night or two. Even so, those who are superstitious, fearful, or desperate enough will hire them to solve the problems they simply don't understand. In some cases with disastrous results.
For Contractors, charlatans are red herrings and obstacles. Clumsy fakes that conjure a smokescreen of misinformation and escalate the situations they're in.

Quick Fix
It'll work, just give me some time.
No matter which part of the tool is used for what, when Momo applies it to the intended object, small pieces slide into place on their own, dents become undone, welds weld back together, fuel and power gauges go up, etc. If one pays close attention, there's a distortion in the air around the target, similar to what heat can create.
Momo tries to disguise this gift by using the right tool on the right thing, or even using an appropriate additional tool, but anyone paying attention knows something isn't quite right.

Mending the Divine Strings
Remake what's been undone
Naaranbatar pulls a golden needle and red string out of the air around him and starts mending, sewing and patching up the destroyed object, bringing it back into a working state. During the process he hums a hymn to Öd Tengri as the god turns back the time for the object being worked on.
Everything has a purpose imbued at the moment of creation, and the divine strings allow something to fulfill its job once more.
