[Locked to DATS commanders, Simon, Meta-Knight]

[xtrnlmonologue]

Well well, it seems that we only ever call you when there's trouble brewing.

Simon, Meta-Knight, I was wondering if I might have a moment of your time?

Hey, at least it's not boring when you DO.

What's up?

[xtrnlmonologue]

How does a nice epic war grab you?

We could use some air support, given who we're going to be going up against.

[simonthedigger]

We're a little lighter on MEN right now need to work on that than usual, as Viral and Marino got sent back home... but hey, the Halberd's always ready to give you guys a hand. Every hand helps, right?

So, who's heads are we busting?

[xtrnlmonologue]

Tetha.

... I hadn't heard about your loss. I suspect it must have happened while I was comatose.

Alas, DATS can spare you manpower, if you're willing to lend us a hand.

Given that Ravemon's been seizing ships to build an armada, I'm rather surprised he hasn't come after the Halberd yet...

1/2

[simonthedigger]

Tch. Only 'cause he knows what's good for him--

2/2

[simonthedigger]

...

Wait.

I think we need to back up here.

WHY are we trying to drop kick Ravemon's ass?

[indarkestknight]

This would be helpful to know, yes.

Re: 2/2

[xtrnlmonologue]

Do you want to know about the giant cannon Tetha's built and pointed at the Royal Base, or the massive troop buildup and aforementioned commandeering of vessels for a war effort?

Re: 2/2

[simonthedigger]

...

All of the above.

Re: 2/2

[indarkestknight]

... It already sounds like the potential for a glorious battle.

Unfortunately, until you have signed on, the information is confidential.

Nanoha has assembled an incredible intelligence profile with the assistance of the intelligence division, detailing the exact location of the cannon in a firing line approximately fifty-two and six-sixteenths miles from the westernmost point of the Royal Base, at an angle of eleven degrees, but I would never say that, not even if you ripped my mouth off.

Additionally, we've got photographic surveilance imagery of assault encampments everywhere from Dokako Jungle to the Putrid Ruins, but you could never make me say that. Not even if you ripped my tongue out and threw it into the Putrid Ruins.

I sure hope I don't accidentally hit the button that transmits those pictures, though...

[simonthedigger]

Please.

You say that like we're not ALWAYS signed on to help you guys, anyway.

So much for keeping the Tags we both have apart, but... well. Desperate times, desperate measures, and all that.

Ravemon's probably got one of them, anyway, right?

[indarkestknight]

Indeed. Our own pursuit for power would be well served... I have my ship, and now I need to be as strong as I possibly can be. If it involves the tags, that is an added incentive.

[xtrnlmonologue]

And here I went and tried to actually poke fun at my speaking quirk. I had that planned for days...

You two are truly heartless.
