Mulling over Nebua

[queenmikimiki.livejournal.com]

[After the last mission Miki had returned with Nebula in a wreck. Frankly how it was still moving was a mystery. Most of the systems were shot, several large chunks of the orange machine were just gone.

Despite that Miki seemed to have taken it relatively well, better than Haruka at the very least. The blonde seemed to just be staring at Nebula while fiddling with her iDOL key. Her expression rather serious.]

Hiems, Nubilum and Imber now. Turiavita is going to be a pain to deal with.

[Wow. This is the most serious Julia's ever seen Miki...]

I'm sorry. That I couldn't be out there to help.

[Yeah, this was such a wonderful reminder of how the world wouldn't wait for her, no matter how much she wished it would.]

[queenmikimiki.livejournal.com]

It's alright, we couldn't have predicted that one of the hostages worked for Turiavita. Or that..."thing" showing up.

The next time they show up though...

[She clenches her fist around the iDOL key.]

I'll crush them, even if I means I have to go through Imber to do so.

[It was one thing to beat her, to trash talk both her and Nebula while doing so was another thing. Now it was personal for her.]

[curseu-reflexes.livejournal.com]

Next time I'll...

[She grits her teeth. She's still a piss-poor pilot the Vanguard that Dita lent her.]

... Save a piece of them for me.

[A nod from Miki, for once they actually seemed to be on the same page.]

[marinefashion.livejournal.com]

Yo. Man he looks beat up.

[queenmikimiki.livejournal.com]

Mondenkind is already giving me a lot of flak because of this. I'm sure he'll be fine though, they only broke his body.

[marinefashion.livejournal.com]

Cause I'm guessing the core of it is intact? [Eri leaned against the wall, still dressed in her black (http://images.wikia.com/prettycure/images/0/03/Cureblackmain.jpg) flight suit.]

Man I know the feeling. We're getting off pretty lightly since we beat Fusion anyhow. Stupid thing just had to have a Plan B.

[queenmikimiki.livejournal.com]

Not just that, during that last fight everything went critical for him. He shouldn't have even been moving, yet he still did. I guess you could call it his spirit.

[Miki as well was still in her somewhat skimpy pilot suit (http://i.imgur.com/yFcaS.jpg).]

Wouldn't this count as a Plan C if it came back from when you beat it before?

[marinefashion.livejournal.com]

Yeah I can understand that. Desu's have a spirit of their own.

[She shrugged at that.] Plan B, C, whichever. I just can't believe we were pushed to our limits.

[queenmikimiki.livejournal.com]

Our limits huh.

[Somehow that pissed Miki off, because she knew she was better than the Turiavita iDOLmasters.]

[emorangerpink]

...Oh my god.

Is.. he all right? Are you all right?

[queenmikimiki.livejournal.com]

We're both fine just a bit shaken up.

[emorangerpink]

He'll... heal?

I guess I missed a lot...

[queenmikimiki.livejournal.com]

Mondenkind already said they'll see to his repairs immediately and will send some supplies over.

Don't worry yourself.

[emorangerpink]

It's scary to see an iDOL with so much damage. Is Imber all right?

[zetahatsudo.livejournal.com]

[Kamille's jogging up to you, now, and he's worried.] Miki, did you see Haruka?

[queenmikimiki.livejournal.com]

No why do you ask?

[zetahatsudo.livejournal.com]

I'm worried about her, to be honest. I've never seen her separated from Imber before, so I don't know how she'll react.

[shakes head] I'm sorry, I should probably ask what will happen with Tempestas and Nebula, but this mission's been stressful.

What are you going to do now?

[queenmikimiki.livejournal.com]

Knowing Ribbons she'll be fine with how optimistic she usually is I wouldn't worry about her.

Mondenkind says Nebula will be fixed although they can't even give me an estimate. Tempestas' Core and it's pilot are to stay on the Chalice for now as it's the safest place for them.

As for me, I'm going to wait for my next to destroy Turiavita.

[She said that last line with a large smile.]

[zetahatsudo.livejournal.com]

[disagrees on that matter, but hopes for the best.]

Sounds like fun... I think I'll be helping you. That bitch isn't going to be getting away with this.

[coolblueiceman]

[Chrono's on his way through the hangar when he comes across a vaguely familiar-looking wreck. Miki's presence makes him realize what it was, having looked over a roster of known units on the Chalice.]

What a mess... Looks like things didn't go so well out there. What happened? I know you were out on a hostage rescue mission, but I haven't heard the debrief beyond that. [A quick visual inspection doesn't make Chrono worry too much, but since he wanted to get in the habit:] Are you all right?

[queenmikimiki.livejournal.com]

Ah Chrono, I'm fine all things considered.

If you want the short of it...Turiavita has 3 iDOLs now, we lost Imber to them.

[coolblueiceman]

Imber... That's Haruka's iDOL, right? She probably isn't taking it well, I'd expect. Nanoha and Fate didn't, back then. [And I bet she'll be inconsolable for a while.] Certainly not as well as you're holding up, considering... [He gestures at the broken giant behind her.]

[queenmikimiki.livejournal.com]

She'll be fine I'm sure, you guys give her too less credit.

[Miki only grinned at that.]

Mondenkind already said he can be repaired, the only thing I need to worry about is going all out next time we encounter Turiavita.

[coolblueiceman]

I guess that's a good thing. None of us have really lost a unit permanently... well, except for me, but Dita swears she has more than enough to cover it, not that I'm sure I believe that. Anyway, we'll be right behind you next time they show up. Leaving that kind of power with people like that... it leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
