The REAL welcome to Gucun - cuts for length

[srwuga_mods]

[After defeating the insurgent attack, White Chalice was escorted by the Gucun Border Patrol to the capital. And something has changed... where there was rubble, now stand buildings. The place is definitely less ruined, and looks even modern and quite advanced in some areas! You are treated like respectable guests, and there is a honor guard

Cheng!

[Enter the waving bird.]

It's only been like 3 months and you already got the country running like this?

[vjockey]

Months... Try years Ichitaka.

[Cheng shakes his head with a rueful smile.]

Still, its surprising what one can do with limited resources.

[thestrayhawk]

((Just gonna have this make some sense))

Right sorry I keep forgetting.

[Insert headscratch here.]

No kidding, I didn't you'd get new Combat Frames produced.

[vjockey]

With how much difficulty we had fending off the attack of those unknown machines, new weaponry was needed. Our older frames couldn't take the paces needed anymore.

[His expression was ice cold as the memories of that fight came back.]

Still. Hopefully we can put up a greater fight if they strike again.

[thestrayhawk]

You'll have a 7 year tech advantage over those aliens now though. That's one good thing about all of this.

[And Ichitaka knew that face.]

I think we're hoping the same thing. If it wasn't for Jeremy and R-

[Then he just completely freezes, remembering what RGNK did to Cheng.]

[vjockey]

[At this Cheng seems to look... particularly annoyed.]

If it wasn't for... who?

[Cheng didn't hear much information regarding the survival of the Adventus generals, but clearly he wasn't looking pleased with the direction this was going to.]

[thestrayhawk]

[Ichitaka was sweating bullets now, trying to think of the best way he could phrase this.]

J-jeremy and r...r...r....

...our determination in battle?

[And the worst word play of the year award goes to Ichitaka. Yeah he's wasn't fooling anyone here.]

[vjockey]

Ichitaka. We were crewmates, and students under a great man.

[Cheng has walked over and put a hand to your shoulder Ichi, that hand was... pretty damn strong.]

Now... I want you to be completely honest with me. Jeremy. and. who?

[thestrayhawk]

[Why does every encounter with a head of state turn out bad for him?]

Jeremy and RGNK.

[vjockey]

[To say Cheng was.... displeased was an understatement. Seven years of separation did not ease the disgust and contempt - even the outright hatred she had for the blind DJ.]

I see... so... yesterday's enemies are today's allies, despite appearing to have died?

[It came out as a growl. Ichitaka, that hand on your shoulder was squeezing painfully tight like a vice before it pulled away.]

It is best that he does not leave this ship... for his sake.
