First Orders

[used_to_be_here]

[Following her orders Canon had just finished getting her Babylon Model Fafner onto the Chalice along with several crates of replacement parts for it. She seems to be quite angry at herself for being unable to do anything to help protect the base. Currently she was just inspecting the Fafner parts still in her pilot suit which was quite different

[Cheng wouldn't even approach with a 50 foot pole... his service rifle maybe.]

[used_to_be_here]

[Oh so he's a coward on top of being a terrible pilot and soldier.]

[2hell_weride]

[[Ohoho, welcome to hell, girlie.]

Ohhh, so now you wanna bring it up on MY ship? There's no federation rules.

And you gotta sleep sometime

[used_to_be_here]

[There's just a blank stare from her.]

I've been given orders to cooperate with you all and lend you my help. If the Captain or anyone of higher rank wants my machine disassembled then go on ahead...until then however if you try to make it so I'm unable to follow my initial orders I won't be held responsible for whatever actions I take.

[She's 'attempting' to not be so hostile.]

Alternatively since you seem to believe that I'll be assimilated soon anyways how about we make a deal. The moment that I turn into crystal you're free to completely scrap this Babylon Model and do whatever you want with the spare parts.

[2hell_weride]

Yeah yeah, whatever lady.

You realize that... because you're expecting me to take it apart, now I have to... out of principle.

I'm gonna figure out what the fuck makes your shit so special. It's either superior or inferior...

Good luck stopping me.

If you lighten the FUCK up, maybe I'll put it back together perfectly.

[used_to_be_here]

Again if you get your permission or when I shatter go ahead but until then if that machine so much as loses a screw you'll regret it. I'll only give you this warning one more time.

Touch it without permission while I'm still around and you'll pay dearly, it doesn't take a lot to stop a idiot.

[emorangerblack]

More people have died... and you continue to live.

It is as if they sacrificed themselves for your sake. How does that make you feel?

[Devon is leaning against one of the crates.]

[used_to_be_here]

[She stops messing around with the parts to look at Devon.]

Nothing, not anymore.

I shouldn't even exist right now but yet I do. All I care about right now are my orders.

[emorangerblack]

Nothing matters for you but orders.

He'd be disappointed.

[used_to_be_here]

You and your comrades shouldn't compare me to your previous Fafner pilot. I'm nothing like him.

[leftjoker]

[Not only does Shoutaro dare, he actually waves hello.]

Looks like we meet again, miss Fafner Pilot. [He seems somewhat amused by her presence, most likely because it serves as a nice distraction to what happened today.]

It's good to know we'll have you in our corner in the battles to come against Gato's ilk. [He visibly frowns when he speaks the name.] I look forward to working with you.

[used_to_be_here]

[Someone approaching her normally...that's new.]

The Curious Detective...

[She realized the irony that she was now working WITH them after just telling him that they could become enemies soon but she wasn't going to mention it.]

I'm only here because of my orders from Captain Synapse. [This was something she was quick to inform him about.]

That's...surprising, your friends seem to think the opposite.

[leftjoker]

[Shakes his head] I honestly don't know what their story is, all I care about is that we get Gato to pay for the deaths he's caused this day. If the others have a problem with you, they can learn to live with it.

[used_to_be_here]

The Nightmare of Solomon will pay in time. [She's quite serious about this.]

Are you sure you want to say that?

[gundam_for_xmas]

Lieutenant Memphis.

[Christina salutes the younger girl, having gotten used to that idea with the whole, you know, being in the Federation thing.]

If you don't mind me asking...have you run into these people before?

[used_to_be_here]

Lieutenant Mackenzie.

[Canon returns the salute.]

Yes...I ran into them when I was sent with the Titans expedition to retrieve the iDOL core in Bermuda, I apologize for not informing you about it earlier but my orders were to not tell anyone about unless they needed to know.

The encounter was not friendly.

[gundam_for_xmas]

I hadn't realized it'd gone that poorly...you're going to be alright working with them though, right?

[used_to_be_here]

It's no fault of yours Lieutenant and do not be concerned. I'll follow the orders given to me and work with them regardless of my own problems with them.
