Are you alright?

[srw_megaotaku]

I don't know. I was scared, but somehow...I made it. We made it. I almost..

[space_heart_boy]

*understanding dawns on his face*

That was your first real battle, wasn't it?

[srw_megaotaku]

Um, yeah

[space_heart_boy]

The first battle is usually the worst. No amount of training can prepare you for the fear that you get from fighting for your life the first time.

You did pretty well though. You kept on fighting instead of freezing up. I've seen plenty of pilots who froze when they realized how much danger they were in.

[srw_megaotaku]

..Thanks man, I really needed that.

But I really don't get, that winged monster, how did I..?

[space_heart_boy]

How did you...what?

[srw_megaotaku]

I was about to be...I mean, I was getting crushed and I then, and then, it just, I mean the monster was just killed.

[space_heart_boy]

Don't you remember? You used that attack with the glowing, spinning blades to kill it.

[srw_megaotaku]

Ah...!? Really?

[space_heart_boy]

Yes. I've never seen weapons like those before, but they definitely came from your mech. It's really strange that you don't remember using them.

[srw_megaotaku]

Well um...

that's because I had my eyes closed

[space_heart_boy]

*looks at him expectantly for an answer.*

Oh. I just realized that we haven't formally met yet. I'm Quatre Raberba Winner.

((Silly me, I forgot that they hadn't actually met yet.))

[srw_megaotaku]

(oh, they haven't? Weird)

Ryuusei Date. Hello Quarte, quite a name there.

[space_heart_boy]

Heh, yeah. It can be a mouthful.

[srw_megaotaku]

You're a pilot right? What exactly do you pilot?
