He's just having a tantrum.

[Pause.]

He'll come to one of us. We're the closest he has to confidantes.

Nevertheless, if we stop him, he may owe us some social capital, Major.

Tch.

[She doesn't really want Ace on a rampage. He's extremely dangerous.]

If he shows up, he's setting himself up for it. He's undisciplined, not stupid.

Very undisciplined. I'm no Togusa, but I'll try and talk him down. I'll let you know if I track him down.

That's fine. The chunk of what I don't think is pork that just landed in the pan has really put me off the entire concept of food. Human frailty, what can I say?

I don't suppose your change of plans has anything to do with that?

A repugnance for cannibalism is a perfectly natural response, in my estimation.

[Batou considers before he answers.]

The two may have a relation.

[There are scraping noises as Fred disposes of the ruined stir-fry.]

You can neither confirm nor deny? Okay.

[The shrug is obvious in his voice.]

My regards to the Major.

[And this? Was the first place Batou went to look for Ace. It only makes sense, given that the Carnival seems to be the only crack in the armour of the ship.

Batou's already reported to the Major where he was heading, so he doesn't bother waiting for her. It's more important, Batou decides, to try and pacify Ace before the whole ceiling comes down on the man's emotional stability.

It's simple to follow the trail of destruction.]

Ace!

Lonely. I was hoping we could play chess.

[Batou tries to walk closer to Ace in any case, circling around him at the ten-yeard barrier as the biological man approaches a strange, caged flower.

Batou's brows furrow as he thinks, a low noise in his chest.]

Ace, talk to me. You lack information--for all you know, he's just back on his homeworld. Or in storage. There's no need for these theatrics.
