Setsuna had left the party early - not really a surprise. Setsuna's lack of social skills and intense uncomfortableness around crowds made it so that the part served only to rankle him and seeing no further reason to stay after making his initial appearance, well - he'd gotten a good night's sleep.

So he's woken early, jogged, and come to the hangar. A brief check on the 00 revealed a red zone near the feet. Nothing serious, but it did need to be looked at for safety measures. So, Setsuna made his way to the bottom of the hangar, well below the catwalk, tool kit in hand and a gun in his waist band out of old habit. And there he remained, quietly poking away as he recalled schematics on a data pad nearby, and 00 securely locked with voice recognition and pass code locks above.

Loran eventually entered the hangar himself, examining a few mobile suits before his eyes found the shoulders of the 00 and the two cone-like drives.

"That must be it." He said to himself, and made his way towards the Gundam.

At the feet, hidden by the catwalk, Setsuna stiffened. He heard the gentle, rhythmic tap of feet above him - and heading for 00. No one had reason to go near it, not even the other Meisters, and they would likely have called for him.

Frowning, he set aside his tools and grasped hold of his gun, moving to the ladder, but remaining on the side that kept him shielded via the catwalk and began to climb in silence.

Loran craned his neck, looking around at the exterior of 00. He didn't know exactly what it looked like normally, but it seemed to be in good shape.

He didn't notice Setsuna coming up the ladder, he was too busy contemplating if it was worth the risk to try and enter the cockpit.

Setsuna brought the gun to his mouth, gripping with his teeth and pulling, the 'kcha' of the bullet being loaded sounding. He spun around the ladder and and surged up, swinging the gun out in front to aim at the intruder and keeping his own body low.

Loran stopped his movement, he could swear he heard a gun being loaded or something similar.

He didn't make another move towards the cockpit, instead turning his head to look in the direction of the noise.

"Move," Setsuna growled as he came up over the edge in a smooth slither, gun never leaving the point between Loran's eyes.

He wasn't sure if he had seen the other around the island before or not, and quite frankly he didn't care. Others said the island was peaceful, that they had nothing to fear from anyone else. But Setsuna thought such sentiments were worth as much as the sand on the beach - nothing. Just because they were forced to live together did not mean that peace reigned. Far from it.

And this white haired boy he didn't know had taken a few steps to close to his gundam. It was all the reason he needed to shoot.

Loran put his hands up and moved a few steps away from the 00. He wondered if this person was one of those people Ribbons had been telling him about.

"There's no reason to shoot!" Even if these guns were very different from the ones he was used to, Loran could tell what it was by the way it was pointed at him.

"There is no reason for you to be here either," Setsuna replied, straightening to his full height (which wasn't all that much but it was something).

moonracedingly November 21 2009, 20:08:19 UTC

"Yes there is." Loran was glad to be able to think quickly, he pointed towards the tall Gundam with a moustache.

"I'm the pilot of the White Doll."

apples_for_exia November 21 2009, 20:20:06 UTC

"There is no reason for you to be here," Setsuna repeated, meaning in such close proximity to his machine without his permission and attendance.

moonracedingly November 21 2009, 20:31:15 UTC

"But I already told you, I have a mechanical doll as well. There's no reason to point a gun at someone for looking at something." Loran could see why Ribbons wouldn't go into the party, every one on the island had seemed so nice but if they were really this irrational...

apples_for_exia November 21 2009, 20:34:06 UTC

"Just looking?" Setsuna repeated, his tone suggesting he believed that was a load of horse-shit at best and worth about as much. "You're to close for just a look. And I don't know who you are. I have no reason to trust you."

moonracedingly November 21 2009, 20:38:05 UTC

"And have I given you a reason to not trust me?" Loran wasn't liking these accusations.

"This mechanical doll is very different from mine." Which was very true, even the basic shape was entirely different.

apples_for_exia November 21 2009, 20:55:42 UTC

"Neither have you given me reason to trust," Setsuna countered, his eyes briefly flickering to the Gundam Loran had indicated earlier. "Obviously."

moonracedingly November 21 2009, 21:05:35 UTC

"Wouldn't you be curious?" Loran frowned. Ribbons was going to be disappointed if he wasn't even able to try and get in the cockpit.
