Let there be br0mance

*Between the recent stroke of bad luck the GDF seems to have been facing, Anew has been redoubling and then redoubling again her efforts on completing the 0-Raiser, even taking personal days off from the infirmary just so she can spend more time revising its systems

-Setsuna arrives in due time to check up on the 00-Raiser's progress and quickly catches sight of the exhausted Anew. Eyes wide, he rushes forward to help her.-

Anew? You're not hurt, are you?

[anew_redshirt]

Far from it, Setsuna. Just a little tired is all.

But it's well worth it. Just a little while longer, Setsuna. Just a little while longer and the full power of 00 can be shown to the world.

-Setsuna smiles at Anew, assisting her to her feet.-

That may be true, but taking care of a friend is just as important. Please get some rest. I'm sure the rest of the mechanics can take care of things from here.

*Anew smiles and accepts Setsuna's help*

You're right, of course. So close to the end... it would be horrifying if I accidentally pressed "delete" at an inopportune moment.

Of course that's impossible, but it never hurts to be safe.

[Since it seems Setsuna found her already, let's say he just heard about her little collapse.]

I admire your dedication and all but, you know, don't hurt yourself Anew.

I wasn't planning on it, Lyle. I just... the GDF is in hot water right now. I mean, that Yamato boy got attacked for no reason.

If those are the feelings of civilians, I can hardly imagine what the feelings of armed military personnel like the Titans and A-LAWS are like.

We need a leg up. And the 0-Raiser can give it to us. A few days without much sleep is a small price to pay, Lyle.

*she laughs*

But don't think I've forgotten about you or the others. The Shield Bits are well on their way to completion too.

You're going to work yourself into an early grave, and the morale of the rest of us will plummet even more when we can't see your lovely face around.

But since I can see you're dead set on getting this work done, why don't you take at least a brief break tonight and let me treat you to dinner?

Guilting Lyle into a date. JUST AS PLANNED

[anew_redshirt]

That is very sweet of you Lyle. And with reasons like that, I couldn't possibly say no.

[in_yo_veda]

Good work.

*hands her some coffee*

[anew_redshirt]

Ah. Thanks.

*Anew accepts it and takes a brief drink before sighing*

The new equipment for all your Gundams is coming along nicely too. I'm even including an AI system in the GN Archer. They'll be up and running soon as well.

I see. We should schedule testing for 00-Riser as soon as possible. With the way things are going lately, we won't have much time before we need to deploy Setsuna again, and I don't like 00 not having Trans-Am. Testing for Archer Arios should be scheduled right after, although I'd prefer to have a real pilot for both of them...
