[X-1 wasn't super damaged, but from the look on Kincaid's face, things on the last mission had not gone well

That would indeed be the goal...

[Here's everyone's favorite League member...]

But I'm warning you... Joshua O'Brien is not someone to take lightly in any sense of the word... I do not see the X-1 taking out White Glint...

[bottleofgundam]

Do I look like I'm taking anything lightly right now?

[howling_alone]

Just making sure... He preys on errors, even the slightest of misalignment and he has an opening...

What exactly do you intend to do next time you see Joshua? PRIME and myself will more than likely be deployed together next time. Perhaps some strategy can be made...

[bottleofgundam]

Nothing yet. I need to cool down and be able to think about it rationally, analyze the recordings from the battle.

He had some things to say about you, you know.

[howling_alone]

I'm sure. Joshua and the League have no good ties. It's little wonder he'd have any sort of praises to give us. I can sense distrust, Mr. Nau. Are we going to have an issue?

[Alexei looks a bit disconnected right now...]

[bottleofgundam]

You know how I feel about the League. They've never actively held any of our pilots hostage, though, so you're a point ahead in my book.

[howling_alone]

I do know how you feel about us... but we haven't done anything to compromise the integrity of the Chalice. You have to trust me on this one, Kincaid. The League would NOT associate with Line Ark in the least.

[bottleofgundam]

Can you get me information on his mech?

[howling_alone]

[He opens up his holo-deck, displaying a small model of the White Glint.]

All we have is information on its weapons. The White Glint is a completely customized model; no company makes its frame, nor its Overd Booster. Aside from that, it uses standard-issue rifles and spread missile launchers from Bernard and Felix Foundation, one of the reasons we took out that Arms Fort in the first place. If you have any sort of storage device, I can give you all the information I have on hand. Just don't expect heavy details. Even the League doesn't know that...

[bottleofgundam]

[He reaches into his pocket and digs out a generic memory stick for Alexei as he peers at the hologram.]

It's a start.

Do you have anything on the man himself? I think he might have been a newtype or something similar.

[howling_alone]

I can open up the database for you

[bottleofgundam]

I've never had to rely on that power to fight someone. I was always fast enough or good enough on my own. He's just faster.

Sounds like Line Ark just bought him out.

[howling_alone]

Our records indicate that Line Ark, while they were still members of the League, received both him and operator Fiona Jarnefeldt at the same time as free agents... at no cost.

You'll get him next time, Kincaid. We all will...
