[Twenty-Second] - I've Got Wheels, I've Got Gutter Spray

[action; 772 Bunker Street]

[Neighbors and family members might notice the addition of one Guren Mk-II outside the house at 772 Bunker. It's parked halfway on the lawn and halfway on the road, since Kallen didn't want to block the whole driveway. Currently, she is outside with the machine, checking its parts and looking over the exterior.]

The Guren Mk-II.

It's a type of Knightmare Frame. We use them to fight battles where I come from.

How much does it weigh?

More than you could lift.

I think it's somewhere around seven and a half metric tons.

[No way. She knows that voice.

Kallen sits up straight, turns to see him, then jerks at the controls of the Guren. She turns it off the road and stops it next to him. Hurriedly, she stands up in the cockpit to get a better look.]

Lelouch…!

Is that really you?

[ well, at least some traffic can continue. that honking was getting on his nerves.

turning his attention to kallen, then. ]

Yes, it's me. Who else could it possibly be?

[Kallen powers the Guren down and lowers herself from the cockpit so that she's standing a few feet in front of him.]

You just show up here, and that's what you have to say?

I've been stuck in this place for almost a year, and before that, I watched you die. It's a little…

[She trails off for a second.]

It's a little hard to believe--seeing you here.

[He's on his way home from school, and he stops ... and ... stares.]

What is that?

[Kallen actually enjoys these reactions. She grins.]

It's a Knightmare Frame. The Guren Mk-II.

Back home, I used to pilot this all the time. Mayfield just gave it back to me.

But what is it? I've never seen anything like it before.

Knightmare Frames are machines, piloted by people, to use in battle. They were created by an empire to help them conquer other countries.

Do you know what a tank is? I've seen one of those around here. It's like that, only more developed.

[An enormous man is walking along the sidewalk, some 8 1/2 feet tall himself. He spots the Guren, which he instantly tags as a dreadnought, or a small mechanicus knight. He will lope alongside it, his enormous stride eating distance between the Guren and himself swiftly. He will look up at it, his craggy, if well-formed face showing true interest in the machine.]

"Now that is an interesting machine." [he will muse to the driver. And thus phone acquaintances encounter each other for the first time. His voice is that of the man Kallen has spoken to a few times before. Only far, far deeper, and louder in person. It reverberates with the hum of the Guren's servos, even. And he looks completely unafraid of it, nothing but curiousity and pleasure in his face.]

[Kallen is initially surprised by the man's size, but she recovers once she hears him talk and recognize his voice. Though it's pretty clear he could keep up with the Guren at this speed if he wanted to, Kallen decides to pull off the road and let him a have a better look.]

Garviel, right? This is the one I was talking about. The Guren Mk-II.

It's the version before it was upgraded, though--I didn't think I'd ever pilot it again like this. And Mayfield took away the Radiant Wave Surger. But everything else works fine! Want me to show you what it can do?

"Radiant Wave Surger? Is that some sort of melta weapon?" [Actually it more or less is, based on the mechanics :3]

"By all means. I find war machines fascinating in some ways, if only bec...."

[he looks at her.]

"How do you pilot without any neural interface?"

radiant_will February 23 2011, 04:36:33 UTC
It's a microwave radiation emitter. A really powerful one. See the right arm? Normally, it can destroy almost anything it comes in contact with.

[She's about to close the cockpit before she catches his question.]

A neural interface? We don't use it. I control most of the movement with my arms, then input commands with my hands and fingers.

[She slows down so that he can get a nice, long look. Or so she doesn't accidentally run him over.]

It's the Guren Mk-II.

Pretty cool, huh? This is what I piloted in the battles I fought back home.

Pretty cool?! I-It's incredible! I don't even know how to describe it! It's . . . It's like those car things, right?!

Way better than that.

Here. Stand back, and I'll show you something.
