[ Someone ought to really tell Hoshi to stop being in the kitchen so often, but after a victory like that, well she can't help but celebrate in her own way and that's through making a three-tiered cake! There's different flavors on each level - vanilla, chocolate and strawberry covered with frosting and little decorations here and there

[BUT ON THE OTHER HAND! Said GAY CAKE looked so deliciously mouthwatering that Mad was having serious internal conflict over it. He kept moving to the cake than kept turning around at the last second, unable to make up his mind!]
Goddamn fucking tease cake! Why the fuck are you doing this to me!?

Besides... my dad didn't become a war hero from being nice.

Want to tell me about him?

Hell yeah! Dad used to pilot the Ares Gear! Told me all sorts of stories about how he used to fight off bandits and aliens and take on Jerks who stamped down on towns with an iron fucking fist.
Darren Caine. He used to be a pilot for the Feds with his buddies Rigger and Finch! They kicked all sorts of ass back in their day! Even before they got the Ares Gear and those other mechs!

He sounds really awesome, Mad. What other accomplishments did he have and did he have any notable missions?

But he says the thing that changed him the most was the Ares Gear. He was on the detail that found it... some Zeeks found out and wanted to take it for the glory of John and shit.
[Yes. He called Zeon - John.]
His GM got wrecked so he figured getting into the Ares Gear was his best shot and he saw the whole assload of those fuckers off
[he smacks his fist into an open palm.]
WHAM! Just like that!

[ She respects people who serve in armies since they regularly put their lives on the line. Idly, she grips at the dog tags that are on her neck and looks back up at Mad. ]
So, I guess that's why the Ares Gear is so important to you - it's a part of your father and you wish to try to emulate him, right?

[At this Mad seemed to beam, then look a little down, quickly brushing at his eyes.]
Just don't go running off to meet my old man to quick... old bastard died a while back...
[He seemed to struggle to hide how he felt about it. Clearly to him men aren't meant to show weakness.]

[ She frowns and reaches over to pat him on the shoulder. ]
I won't. If it helps, I'll also remember him.

[He seemed to relax, then flinch and pull away from the hand.]
Y-YEAH! That's it! He was the strongest there ever was! I got a lot to live up to!!
[He looked simultaneously determined and nervous.]
And...yeah.. thanks... as much as dad did for the world I still can't believe no one even knows his name... having people remember him...

[ Immediately, her hand drops down to her side and she takes her space. ]
Don't mention it. I'd rather someone be remembered for the good they did instead of fade into obscurity.

[He has a weak grin on his face.]
