Down, and kind of out - Video

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

[ As soon as Katina got Lucca and Ed to safety, her first instinct was to turn right back around and head through the gate.

That didn't last very long though - her armor was designed to deactivate itself when damaged and in a properly safe location. Not her favorite feature, but it gave her enough time to realize that she needed to take care of her own wounds. Dying isn't all that useful.

That's how she found herself laid up in the medical wing, being taken care of for strained ligaments, a dislocated shoulder, and a few cracked ribs. Nothing serious, but enough to leave her out of the fight if she took much more of a hit.

No amount of common sense made her happy about it, though, and it shows in her fairly dour expression. ]

Looks like you guys are gonna have to get by without me for a few days. Hopefully I don't miss anything important, but I'll be back in action as soon as everything's holdin' together properly.

Thanks for-

[Jaw cracking yawn]

...for getting us out of there. Real life saver.

[becomethesniper.livejournal.com]

Sounds like someone did quite a number on you.

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

Hey, it's nothing. Even if it wasn't my job, you dragged me outta that yakuza den a while ago.

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

A lot of someones, over a period of time.

because you know this needs Kazumi replying...

. . .

*guess who came in to visit and... yeahhh*

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

[ ...smile and wave. ]

[still-an-otaku.livejournal.com]

You make it sound as if yakuza are bad...

[becomethesniper.livejournal.com]

And in situations where you couldn't use the actual Gespenst?

[doesntgethives.livejournal.com]

...Whoa, did a truck hit you or something?

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

The ones that team up with the Syndicate and nearly kill me sure are.

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

I wanted to be able to grab people on the ground easier, so I spent the whole time in my armor.

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

A few truck-sized rocks, some truck-sized undead, maybe some truck-sized magic...

[micro-icarus.livejournal.com]

Anyways.

I'd say something about us being even now, but I wasn't exactly keeping score. I had almost forgotten that mess.

[still-an-otaku.livejournal.com]

Hm...? Oh, right, them...

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

I don't forget stuff like that very easily.

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

Might've bled out if he hadn't gotten me outta there so fast.

[doesntgethives.livejournal.com]

Well, that sounded like some fight you got into.

[still-an-otaku.livejournal.com]

Well, I'm glad you're safe, now.

[becomethesniper.livejournal.com]

I see. I admit, I just covered the Myudol Gateskimmers as they came in and out. Those things got swarmed like you wouldn't believe.

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

Until I'm healed up, anyways.

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

Fire support isn't my thing, and I managed to get a few people out of some tight spots while I was down there.

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

One helluva fight still going on down there. Wish I was in any shape to keep it up.

[still-an-otaku.livejournal.com]

As long as you wait until you're fully healed...

[micro-icarus.livejournal.com]

Well then I guess we're even now. Or something.

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

Don't worry, I'm taking care of myself.
