[Voice | locked to Shoutarou]

I apologize for the sudden spate of construction - I had not anticipated this being a necessity this early on. If the noise is too much, you can tell Haro to stop for the time being.

[Yes. He is installing a clone pod. In your room]

[Action]

[Meanwhile, Tieria is in the mecha hanger, overseeing repairs to Raphael. He's also about two feet tall, transparent, and kind of hovering in midair, as he's being projected from a holo-transmitter he had cobbled onto Raphael's Veda link.]

[ Half-serious. ]

Boooring.

Making remotely controlled firing platforms would be simpler anyway.

Not as badass.

But far less likely to get in the way at inopportune moments.

So practical...

I see little point in impracticality.

[No, really, he doesn't get it]

I guess you wouldn't. It's no big deal.

[He shrugs]

I suppose not.

Good luck fixing your Gundam, by the way. It's pretty awesome.

Thank you. Repairs should be relatively fast, but I have upgrades I'd like to make now that I know the design's flaws.

Hmmm... maybe I oughta look into doing the same.

Intense combat like that is a good design test-bed. Assuming you survive to make the improvements, anyway.

I've seen it work for plenty of people. They just never give me the newest mechs.

[ The last time was the R-Gun, and Ingram jacked it. ]

...Low on the command chain, I take it?

A test pilot surrounded by more test pilots and people with crazy powers.

Ah. I could see how that might make things difficult, yes.

Freakin' psychics aren't that big a deal.

Your world also has people able to communicate by brainwaves alone?

It's... not so much communication, as it is like... heightened awareness, I guess? A lot of research has been put into linking their special brains up to machines for crazy barriers and weapons.

Hmm. Still, it's best not to underestimate the capabilities of 'normal' humans, I've found.

I keep right up with the rest of them, so that's for sure.

Lockon Stratos is one of our most skilled pilots, despite a wholly ordinary background.

Always knew he was badass, so that's no surprise.

His brother had even higher ability scores.

[That kind of... comes out without thinking. And then Tieria looks awkward]

Brother?

[ Oh he looks awkward. Dude either died or turned traitor. ]

Guess it comes natural.
