Imperial Palace, Earth Didymus shook his head. "Perhaps you misunderstand me, Lady Alice...I did not mean to insist he has no redeeming qualities. Simply that he still needs improvement. Heh, same as us all, perhaps, but in his case, again, this type of behavior..." he shook his head, then blinked. "Hey, are those your sisters he's talking to now...?" “The Empire should protect all of humanity, but if we’re stuck in a violent conflict with the rebels, we may not be able to protect them from if the Cybids attacked. God willing we’ll never have to find out, but…” "And again, Lady Alice, the protection of all humanity is WHY it was founded in the first place. And that is WHY a fracturing of the Empire would be bad. Our resources, manpower, and military-industrial direction needs to be united...a civil war, possibly even a divided humanity...it would be just what the cybrids want...the situation on Mars...I've heard talk that we may not be getting entirely straight reports from that planet...ugh, ever since the governor was assassinated in that bombing...I can't say I know what it's like for them, but...if they'd just have calmed down, the quotas would be lower and tensions would be resolved..." He shook his head again. This wasn't a happy subject. “Oh just go over there. She doesn’t even really want to be here tonight. I’m sure she’d love to talk to you instead of people like Mustang.” "Heh, any tips for getting on her good side, Lady Alice? Provided you know her, I just know OF her..." When Alice had said her piece on that, he made his way over, slowly... "Excuse me, Lady Garnet? ...might I get you a drink?" He didn't introduce himself, though if Garnet kept up with the news she probably would have seen him before, as he was, upon his return to Earth after the attack, hailed as the hero for the hour along with his squad...but he saw no need to bring that up. If she didn't recognize him...it would perhaps appear less imposing. Tifa's Seventh Heaven, Mars There was indeed a secret entrance that led to an underground hideout in the bar, and when they were all down there, Tifa punched up the computer. "Alright." she began. "You know that transport you two shot down? Carrying supplies to the local Police garrison? Turns out Mole Command didn't want to settle for just shooting it down. The ship's computer may have been snapping pictures. You know more than the rest of us that it was near one of the entrances to the prospecting tunnels we use for a base. If the Imps found an entrance to the tunnels, there goes both our command HQ AND our ability to move around and surprise them by popping up unexpectedly from underground. And YES, I know the doors are supposed to be camoflauged and ALL of that, but Mole Command doesn't want to even take that risk. Also, there may be some supplies in that ship we could use." She paused. "The Imps probably have a couple HERCs on the way there to see what they can salvage, so get to it." she said, then her expression softened. "Dinner's on the table when you get back." she added. She turned to the computer, which was connected to the omniweb/internet. "Oh my..." she said, reading the latest articles... Imperial Police Broadcast: Martian Strike Resolved Peacefully Imperial Police peacefully faced down striking miners at a Tharsis City facility on Mars yesterday. Several miners were arrested, cited, and released. "Voice of Free Mars" Broadcast: Imp Lice Crushed a Peaceful Strike! "Arrested, cited, and released?" Who are they kiddin'?! The Imp Lice left 'em bleeding in the street after "citing" them with stunstaves! |

[Imperial Palace, Earth] “That’s precisely why I’m worried, Didymus.” Alice frowned as she looked over to the dark-haired male. “If a full-blown civil war happens against the rebels, it will make it virtually impossible for the military to provide adequate protection to the people of Mars if the Cybids attack! We can’t very well defend cities when we have the Cybids attacking us from without, and rebels in the very city attacking us from within.” The blonde groaned and leaned against a nearby railing. It was clear she had been dwelling on these issues for a long time. “If we don’t get control of Mars soon, it will leave an obvious weak-spot for the Cybids to attack. Something has to change, and soon…” When the subject of Garnet came up, Alice just shook her head. “I don’t know her well. The only time I see aristocrats if when Mustang has me drag him along to some get-together. Just go over there and say hello.” Garnet turned around when Didymus approached and she gasped a bit. She recognized him as the Knight who had rescued her mother. Garnet nodded slightly. “Oh… hello.” Garnet said quietly. From her voice and the expression on her face, she looked distracted. “A drink would be nice. Thank you.” She paused. “… You’re Didymus, aren’t you? I recognized you from the news.” Garnet added. [Tifa’s Seventh Heaven] “Oh come oooooonnn, we shot the damn thing down!” Asuka groaned loudly. “The Imps have their heads up their asses. There’s no way they’ll find those tunnels. If they weren’t attached I bet they couldn’t find their—” “We’ll get right on it.” Sama thankfully interrupted as he clamped a hand down over Asuka’s mouth. She promptly bit his fingers and Sama yelped out in pain, quickly jumping away from her. |

Imperial Palace, Earth Didymus had agreed with Alice with a "Yes, indeed." as she spoke more of her concerns about Mars, and thanked her for her advice on Garnet...he'd have to talk more with her... “A drink would be nice. Thank you.” "Very well, Lady Garnet. What would you-" “… You’re Didymus, aren’t you? I recognized you from the news.” "I...I am, milady. I...it is a pleasure to make your acquantiance." he said. "Might I get you that drink now? What would you like?" he asked, looking her over. She looked a tad younger than him, old enough to drink if she wished (and we keep things consistent with the S&S age ratio XD), but he hoped she'd prefer non-alcoholic... Meanwhile, Caanon regarded KxS and Jimi. "Good. Keep that in mind." he said. "And try not to spend ALL your time near the food. It may cause talk..." he said. "...but...enjoy yourselves..." he added. Tifa's Seventh Heaven, Mars Tifa rolled her eyes at Asuka and Sama's banter. "Good." she said as Sama said they'd get on it. "One of the old Carson tunnels should spit you out right near where it crashe-well, you'd know where to find it, you were there. But get to your rigs and get the job done. Check for supplies, destroy the flyer if there's nothing, and take care of any patrols the Imps have there, they'll probably be expecting a fight..." she said. "...and...be careful..." she added.

-Earth: Imperial Palace- Kyran smiled brightly, going out unto the dance floor to dance with him, her long dress swishing around as they waltzed or tangoed or whatever. “So Mr. Miyamoto, may I call you Musashi?” Kyran asked, “You can just call me Kyran if you like.” Kyran didn't care too much about being too formal. “Sorry sir, we grew up on Mars,” Jimi said idly, “Old habits and all. Dad always said not to waste food...” Shimera would hear a soft beeping noise, her personal messenger getting a message! - Shim, we need to meet, I'm near. Can we? It was signed with a simple "C"... -Mars: Tifa's Seventh Heaven- Hammah paused, listening in as he followed them done. “I should come with. I'm better at tech then either of these two. I can examine the computers and wreckage and make sure there's nothing left, or to make sure it didn't send off any data,” Hammah said, “And with any luck maybe we'll find some good data we can use.” Edited by AGodofIrony, Sep 2 2013, 07:45 PM.

Earth-Imperial Palace "Understood, sir," KxS responded to Caanon. With Jimi's mentioning of his father, KxS smiled a little. She liked the Spork family; she was really close to them. She stayed at their place often before she became a knight. Shimera checked her messenger. "Oh! Finally, something exciting!" she thought. She looked around to see if anyone saw what she read. The blonde woman stepped away from the crowd, looking for a discreet exit. She had to keep herself from giggling in excitement. Mars-Tifa's Seventh Heaven Strobe eventually decided to follow the others downstairs. She had nothing better to do. She took her headphones off. "Did I miss anything?" she asked. |

[Earth: Imperial Palace] “It’s very nice to meet you.” Garnet said, bowing her head a little. She had heard of the young Knight. He had been involved in the team that saved her mother’s life. She believed he had led that team, although she was not entirely sure on the details. “I prefer water. I know it is customary to drink wine at such occasions, but I’ve never quite liked the taste.” Garnet explained. “I prefer to be called Musashi.” The dark-haired boy replied with an enormous grin. He smiled to Kyran, happy to have found someone who didn’t stand on formalities. He had never enjoyed formal titles himself. “So tell me, Kyran, what do you do?” [Mars: Tifa’s Seventh Heaven] “Psh. ‘Better at tech’. Never forget you’re talking to a genius!” Asuka said, crossing her arms and shooting a glare towards Hammah. She closed her blue eyes and snarled a little, always one to be as rude as possible. “She’s just grumpy because we have to go back out.” Sama sighed. “You guys are welcome to come, but you need to be extra careful, okay?” He looked to Strobe and Hammah. |

-Earth: Imperial Palace- Cess was outside the party, along with various guards of the palace and of the aristocrats, having identification from Shimera as being part of her security detail... Which he technically was, but he did do a lot more... Kyran paused at the question, thinking. “Well... I'm probably going to take over my dad's company,” Kyran answered, “My eldest sister is a reporter, my brother is a private contractor, and my twin is a Knight... My dad's a really good engineer, he helped make a bunch of stuff work better and the like. He's taught me some stuff too and it's actually pretty fun.” The red headed girl smiled, “We've been working on making some better power armor at the moment too... Still a bit too go!” Kyran paused for a moment, “Oh! How rude of me! Talking all about me. What about you? I know you're a Knight, but what do you like to do in your off times?” -Mars: Tifa's Seventh Heaven- Hammah rubbed the back of his head, being smart enough not to challenge Asuka on who was smarter of the two. “Don't worry, I'll be careful,” Hammah said, “I can defend myself if need be... My dad taught me.” |

Imperial Palace, Earth Didymus smiled at Garnet. "The pleasure is mine, Lady Garnet." Didymus said. He had obviously heard about her, but knew very little...other than she was supposed to be a proper courtly lady, even if a bit withdrawn and even bookish...not that either were necessarily a vice. "Of course, Lady Garnet. My pleasure, I feel the same way." he said in response to her drink request. "It isn't necessairly "proper" to drink wine at a formal event either, I'd say, if I may, though...perhaps it depends on the event, heh. Anyway, be right back." He went and got a pair of glasses of water, and returned, offering one to her. "Here you are. Drink up." he paused. He wanted to say something, possibly ask about her mother, but decided not to touch upon potentially touchy subjects... Caanon nodded at KxS and Jimi, and went back to "patrolling"... Tifa's Seventh Heaven, Mars "Don't forget your HERCs..." Tifa said. "Make sure they're good to go before heading out..." she added. |

[Earth: Imperial Palace] “Oh wow, that sounds fun.” Musashi said as he blinked. It sounded like her family was pretty big, and they all had what sounded like fun jobs. He could not help but shake his head a little and wonder why Elysia had never mentioned any of this to him? Maybe it was because he had flirted with her more times than he could count and he was fairly sure she wanted to kill him? “New Power Armor? Now that sounds useful.” Musashi commented happily. Then she asked about his personal life, and the young knight shrugged as he spun her in the dance. “Honestly? I like to live to the fullest. Dances, parties, amusement parks… whatever I can do.” Musashi replied. “Being a Knight… I mean… well, you know… every mission I go on could be my last, so I try to have fun when I’m not doing that Knight stuff.” “Thank you.” Garnet said as she accepted the water. The aristocrat had a tired look on her face, as if she had been up late a lot recently. She offered the best smile she could muster to Didymus, however. [Mars: Tifa’s Seventh Heaven] “Relax,” Asuka said, hands behind her head. “I’m the best damn HERC pilot we’ve got. I never go into battle without making sure everything is good.” Sama shook his head. Asuka had a level of arrogance that was amazing… although he had to admit that she had earned at least some of it. She was an extraordinarily gifted pilot. Sama wouldn’t go as far as to call her ‘the best’, but he would also never contradict her to her face. |

-Earth: Imperial Palace- Jimi sighed a little as Caanon left, looking back towards Kxs. “Heh... probably shouldn't have mentioned my dad around him. I mean, my dad's not a full blown Rebel...” Spork was, but it wasn't something known, “But he does talk against the government and all that...” “Ohhh...sounds exciting!” Kyran said, then frowned a little when Musashi mentioned the danger of his job, “And ohhh...I always do worry about my sister... So far she's been alright, maybe she'll have our grandfather's luck.” Samuel Hawkins had been a Knight who had the habit of getting into very dangerous situations and getting out unscathed. He was now semi-retired and teaching Knight cadets though. She looked towards Musashi, “That would have to be hard with a girlfriend, if you have one...” -Mars: Tifa's Seventh Heaven- “We'll be careful, don't worry,” Hammah said to Tifa, “My dad wanted me to test a couple things he modified with my HERC too... this'll be good for that!” |

[Earth: Imperial Palace] Musashi realized how stupid it was to mention the dangers of being a Knight to Kyran. He had never really thought about it before with her cold demeanor, but Elysia did have a family that must have worried about her. He sighed and offered a smile to Kyran. “Your sister’s a way better Knight than me. You have nothing to worry about when it comes to her.” Musashi said reassuringly. “Just don’t tell her I said that.” Then a slight smirk crossed Musashi’s lips. “I don’t have a girlfriend, but I am in the market for one if you’re interesting.” He’s shameless. [Mars: Tifa’s Seventh Heaven] “Let’s not test too many experimental things if the Imps show up.” Sama gulped. He knew that Hammah’s father was a brilliant scientist… but even the best scientists could still make mistakes, and ‘experimental’ was a scary word on the battlefield. “Let’s just go before Papa gets back and yells at us for not getting a move on.” Asuka suggested. |

Imperial Palace, Earth "You're welcome." Didymus smiled back at Garnet, but behind his smile, there was anixiety. What am I DOING here?! This is TOTALLY unlike me! I mean, you have to give the lady her privacy! You don't just go and impose yourself on her, least of all you...but...Alice encouraged it...but this isn't how I operate...on the other hand...maybe that's WHY I'm here...to take a little initiative in these matters...she DOES have reason to like me...and she DOES look troubled. Showing a bit of gentlemanly courtesy is like me, right? "Pardon me, Lady Garnet, but...how are you? And, if I may ask, how is your mother? I know that you've both had...trying times...recently...how are you all holding up, if I may ask?" Mars-Tifa's Seventh Heaven "Well, go on!" Tifa said. "We lose this and Mole Command's going to have you two running supply ferry duty in the tunnels!" she warned. When they were ready, they would (in what may have been a lengthy process, actually...) Gotten their HERCs or tanks. Most rebel vehicles, HERC or tank, were repurposed and modified industrial vehicles, initially meant for construction and such, and modified to carry what weapons the rebels could scavenge, steal, or rig up. But the discovery of "the cache" had edited their selection somewhat-weapons of unknown origin were stacked there. Some had theorized it was an old TDF or police munitions dump, others that the cybrids had left the cache. Either way, it had been a spark to the rebel fire pit. They would have to follow the maze of mining tunnels Sama and Asuka had gone through just recently, and when they emerged... "This is TAC-COM. We are detecting Imperial signals in your vicinity..." came Mole Command's warning... |

Earth-Imperial Palace KxS turned to Jimi and smiled brightly. "Don't worry too much about that, they probably aren't thinking too much on it either." She finished her fruit and tossed the core away before picking up one more morsel to snack on. "How about we try to strike up a conversation with someone. Caanon is right, we don't really need to spend all our time here near the food," she giggled. Shimera maneuvered outside the party and finally let out a giggle as she set eyes on the pale young man close by. "You needed me?" she asked. |

-Earth: Imperial Palace- Kyran giggled, looking towards Musashi. He was cute, and quite nice... She looked over to Elysia, who was glaring slightly at the two. “Are you sure there's nothing going on between you and my sister though?” Kyran wondered, “I wouldn't want get between you and my sister, after all!” Elysia was still glaring, wondering if she could get away with stabbing Musashi and leaving him in a ditch somewhere. “Yah, you're right,” Jimi said, looking around the room, “Hmm... Looks like Musashi is flirting with some other girl again... Wonder who it is this time?” “Hey Shimera,” Cess said to the girl, glancing around, “Can we walk for a bit first?” He indicated outside, where a nice garden was. -Mars- Hammah came with Asuka and Sama, getting into his own HERC, hurrying along with them. “Imperial signals? We better be careful then...” Hammah said, “And work fast...” |

Earth-Imperial Palace KxS covered her mouth with her hand and snickered. "I bet it won't last long," she whispered. It was all in jest, she had no reason to believe that Musashi couldn't find real love in the future. She just liked to tease. "Think we should bother him?" she asked Jimi. Shimera gave a single nod. "Okay, a walk sounds lovely," she said as she played with some hair that slipped out of her bun. Mars Strobe followed Asuka, Sama, and Hammah. She cracked her neck before climbing into her own HERC. Her apathetic nature quickly became determination. "Alright, let's do this thing," she growled. |
