Ninth Light

[In the wake of the most recent mission, you'll find a disheartening sight if you enter the hangar.  The HK-1138' Corona lies in a crumpled, ruined heap off in a side designated for unsalvagable wrecks, the entire machine nearly split in twain height-wise, a huge chunk of it just fucking gone.  Those parts from before?  Yeah, phoney.  All of them.  Danconias-Phillips imitation parts and completely incompatible.  You didn't actually think they'd HELP Julia, did you?]

Come on... move... move!

[And elsewhere in the hangar, Julia has been trying as hard as she can to use other machines.  Knightmare Frames.  Mobile Suits.  Everything and anything that currently isn't claimed by someone else just so no stone was unturned.  But it's all for naught.  Her hands fly wildly and clumsily at the controls.  It takes all of her willpower and focus to just a machine to stumble awkwardly forward, and all too often her machine stumbles and falls.  And finally after one failure too many...

[Well, everyone has a breaking point and Julia's just hit hers.]

I can't...

I can't pilot anymore...

CLOSEST FRIEND IS THE WORST SUPPORT

[Oh God, Ichitaka, you had to actually go there? Julia just freezes up when he says that, stammering for a moment before just starting to cry again.]

... g-go away...

SOMETIMES YOUR CLOSEST FRIEND HAS TO TELL YOU WHAT YOU NEED TO HEAR

[Yup he knew that hit Julia quite hard but he wasn't going to go away or stop.]

I won't, I'm not going to let you fall apart and give up on your motivations because of something like this.

[Weakly she moved an arm out, trying to push Ichitaka away.]

Worry about your own problems...

[God, Ichitaka, can't you leave her in her failtastic peace?]

[thestrayhawk.livejournal.com]

[No he cannot ever let anyone stay in a failtastic state which is why he talks to Tohya so much]

My friends problems are my problems.

Then...

[She waved awkwardly in the direction of the Corona's wreckage.]

My flight log has Christine's gaffe on it. We're heading to Side 1, right? If you leak it... maybe it'll cause an uproar or something.
