Second Scheme...

1. Video

[Alexei appears on a monitor. He's battered, sweating, disheveled, but smiling.]

I want to thank you all... Everybody that helped to take down Cabracan and the Adventus... I'm proud of each and every single one of you. The League has sent this. I thought you should see it all.

[The League logo pops up, and yet again, the voice of the League's sultry representative takes over.]

White Chalice... we received word that Cabracan was destroyed. We wish to congratulate you on your victory, and, as well, wish to uphold our end of the deal. Within the next few days, the League will ship up to you parts and equipment, as well as food, and any other supplies that the Chalice would like to request, as well as a monetary bonus of 500,000 League credits.

Alexei, PRIME, your actions on the field were superb. GA kept surveillance on the field as you fought. From this, and with the death of Shamir Ravi Ravi and Do Su, we wish to promote you both. Alexei, you now hold the rank of 20, while PRIME, you hold the rank of 19. Carry your ranks with honor, Heit Team, you've earned them.

[The video cuts there]

2. Action

[Alexei is overseeing the damage, namely, the damage done to Wahrheit. It would take just a short time for them to ship in new parts and get them affixed, but the Wahrheit was a shell of what it once was. Still, he was impressed with that it did, and most importantly, he was impressed with what everybody on the mission did. He says nothing, but it's clear he's in deep contemplation. Anyone that wants to disturb him may. He seems to be in real good spirits.]

3. Action - Locked to PRIME, but can be eavesdropped by Kincaid, Tobia, and Zabine due to the possession of the holodeck.

[In darkness, and locked tight, Alexei stares at a screen, looking at all the data that's been collected so far.]

Alright, PRIME... time to send our report... what do you have?

[[Haha! Guard lowered!]]

I only just got here so, you are my senior, aren't you.

But about that favor... How about this... I keep my mouth quiet about your dealings, and you don't tell those Celestial Being boys about what I brought with me?

[howling-alone.livejournal.com]

Dealings? [He folds his arms. This guy just showed up...] What do you mean "dealings?"

[rods-and-cones.livejournal.com]

Oh, good, we have an understanding already~

I don't tell everyone else what you're doing, and you don't tell anyone else about my mobile suit. Can we agree to that, sempai?

[Alexei glares again at Hixar... focusing hard on his eyes. He winces, then starts to hold the side of his head like he was in pain.]

I don't know who you are or why you put this forward. You really have no grounds to say what I can and can't do... h-however, I will comply with your... request. There are no dealings to be had, b-but rest assured... nobody will hear about your suit.

[rods-and-cones.livejournal.com]

You're right! I haven't introduced myself at all. My name is Hixar. Hixar Fermi. And no, I'm not quite a member of Celestial Being.

[howling-alone.livejournal.com]

Not... quite? How can you be not quite? That's like saying I'm not quite a member of Interior Union, but I still know everybody that works for them.

[An odd way to put it, Alexei, but go on]

[rods-and-cones.livejournal.com]

Precisely that.

You're a businessman. Think of it as a... subsidiary. You work for the side branch, but you know the main division very well.

[howling-alone.livejournal.com]

I know that terminology. Then what exactly are you if you're not Celestial Being, if I may inquire?

[rods-and-cones.livejournal.com]

[[Hixar wags his finger.]] Everyone has to have their secrets.

But I will tell you that I'm here to help them, and by proxy, you and the rest of this ship.
