The Next Big Plan [Open Commentlog]

[tachikhromatic]

[Musashi has set itself up in an empty space and is lecturing to whoever comes along. Yes, it has visual aids. No, we don't know why. It's a tachikoma, just go with it.NOW THEN! I'd like to talk about the amphibious mer-Tachikoma that played such an integral role in the offense against the Individual Eleven

[ Why? This is the kind of thing a Tachikoma lives for! ]

[tachikhromatic]

An amphibious vehicle is one that can travel equally well in or on the water as on land! Like a frog, which would be a biological amphibian!

[It spreads it's 'arms' emphatically, gesturing with one upraised finger as it continues, like a lecturing professor.]

If something is 'integral' then that means it's very very important, or else central to the task at hand!

The "Individual Eleven" were a group of terrorists that sought to needlessly kill and assassinate multiple persons of authority for some reason. At that time, it was up to Section Nine to put paid to their dastardly deeds! [One manipulator held high, with great enthusiasm!] So Heroic!

Propellers are the spinning pieces on the back of watercraft- the part that makes them go!

Torpedoes are like missiles, except underwater. They explode! [Musashi raises both arms high to demonstrate, then crosses it's arms in a conciliatory manner] It's really quite impressive.

Water-based terrain would be anything with water deeper than a few inches. Somewhere were I couldn't go without knowing how to swim!

[A break as of for breath, and Musashi whirrs a few paces foreward on it's wheels]

As for what a Tachikoma is- I am a Tachikoma! My name is Musashi, what's yours?

[ oh god this is so cute ;A; ]

[lilyground]

[Lily stares and takes in about half of that. She's a little distracted by how damn weird Musashi is.]

Oh, I'm Lily! Nice to meet you!

[tachikhromatic]

Lily...

[It alters the categorization of the girl from 'human female juvenile' to 'Lily.' This takes a moment, as if it were thinking about the girl's name]

That's a very nice name.

[lilyground]

[Lily smiles sunnily.]

Thanks! Musashi is nice, too!

[tachikhromatic]

Awh, shucks...You really think so? I picked it out myself!

[lilyground]

Yeah, I do! It's really neat!

[The sad part is, she's NOT just saying that.]

Um, M... Einstellsehn gave me "Lily", but my dad gave me my last name!

[tachikhromatic]

Ooh...I don't have one of those, I've just got the one name!

Lily is also the name of a flower isn't it? It sounds like a very poetic way to name someone! [Nature scenes and plant life, right boss? Musashi has the worst role-models.]

I chose my name because it was the name of a famous swordsman! The Major seemed to approve of it, when I told her.
