Meditation
[Out in the hangar, the Falke is standing in the middle of a cleared out area. Although the cooling fins are extended, the only sign that it's not deactivated are occasional tiny shifts in weight as the arm slave mimics Mao's unconscious movements. Mao herself has got her eyes closed, is carefully controlling her breathing, and has emptied her mind of all thought. The lambda driver can be activated by intense emotion, but is that the only way? So far, experimentation suggests that yes, it is. If anything, it feels a little colder around the arm slave, which is the opposite of what should be happening.]
Eventually, Mao decides to take a break, and can be found leaning against the Falke's foot, smoking a cigarette.]
