Don't mind me, just testing out robots

[messiahfist]

*Although he's been in the hangar plenty of times, Teppei has not really paid much attention to the spare robots.  He never really thought there'd be a need to use them, after all.  However, with X gone he can't count fighting on foot anymore.  There's no Guard System left to keep him from drowning in magma, after all.  He's also had a bit of

*The hangar is one of the more common places to find Katina, either messing with her Gespy or bugging her mechanic buddies (yes that includes Tasuku no she won't say that out loud to anyone ever).*

Hey, Teppei!

[messiahfist]

Katina? What's up?

[grandtheftmecha]

Same old same old.

So, looking for a mech?

[messiahfist]

Yeah. And now the problems is there's quite a few that look too inviting for me to decide against using just because.

[gundam_savior]

-Setsuna is also working on his personal machine, though only performing some minor maintenance, such as he's allowed. He spies Teppei giving a few units the once over and wonders if he should flag him down.-

Hm... perhaps he's cooled down enough now for me to speak to him about the matter, but...

[messiahfist]

*Teppei does grow a bit uneasy when he realizes that he's getting close to Setsuna, but understands that and still takes notice of him.*

... I said a lot of things I shouldn't have back then...

[gundam_savior]

-Figuring it was better to bury the hatchet, Setsuna abandons his work on 00 and makes his way towards Teppei, extending a peace offering in the form of a well-meaning smile.-

Did you need a hand with anything, Teppei? You've been pretty busy for the past few hours, and I didn't want to disturb you.

[messiahfist]

*Teppei smiles a bit in return*

Not exactly. I'm just going through what spare machines we have now. I need something to fight with, after all.

[driftingpersona]

Hey Teppei. I heard you were looking at mecha? If you want I could design one for you.

[messiahfist]

I appreciate the offer, Julius. But I've been doing some thinking and right now I'm just looking for something I can use temporarily.

[driftingpersona]

Well if you tell me the sort of mecha you might be interested in I can start working on some designs. And even if you never use them? Hey, I love doing design work anyway and I'm sure I could use it for something.

[messiahfist]

Uh... well...

I guess something with conventional controls is nice. Motion capture can be problematic if you're not use to every single motion you do being replicated for your machine.

And it would be melee-oriented too. I'm a pretty lousy shot.

[Zoe runs into Teppei on her way to work. Knowing what happened to X, she's a bit quiet.]

Teppei. Hey. Long time no see.

[messiahfist]

Hey Zoe. Surprised to see me down here?

[pilotofsilence]

...

When can we go on that training trip?

[Here, have a Shiro with a band-aid on his neck, one hour after this. He looks very irate too.]

[messiahfist]

*Teppei scowls*

After this weekend.

So what's up with you?

[pilotofsilence]

Oh, nothing much, just accidentally cut myself during knife maintenance.

[That happy tone is so clashing with that irate face.]
