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.]

[He shrugs]

I suppose not.

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

[cockpitfairy.livejournal.com]

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

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

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

[cockpitfairy.livejournal.com]

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

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

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. ]

[cockpitfairy.livejournal.com]

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

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

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

[cockpitfairy.livejournal.com]

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

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

Freakin' psychics aren't that big a deal.

[cockpitfairy.livejournal.com]

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

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

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.

[cockpitfairy.livejournal.com]

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

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

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

[cockpitfairy.livejournal.com]

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

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

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

[cockpitfairy.livejournal.com]

His brother had even higher ability scores.

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

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

Brother?

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

Guess it comes natural.

[cockpitfairy.livejournal.com]

[Sad-awkward, not angry-awkward. Though with Tieria the distinction is pretty fine]

I suppose so.

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

[ She's no expert on that line anyways. ]

Glad we have one of 'em anyways.

[cockpitfairy.livejournal.com]

[a nod]

He lives up to his brother's name.

[...Which is a damned big compliment from this one.]
