Bastions in the Sky

[On the deck of the Chalice, Alexei stands and looks up as several shadows are cast on the deck. They're far away, but one can make out the sight of 5 aircraft, massive in size and shaped like stealth bombers. Although such a shape would make Alexei panic and head to the Wahrheit to counteract, he seems oddly complacent. He's just staring up at these colossal machines, almost as if he was staring off into space. Care to bother him?]

Not saying it's a bad choice. Just not wht I'd pick.

If I had to choose between watching the world burn from safety and desperately fighting to prevent it, I'd go with the latter. Hell, I already did, in my SECT days.

That's one way to look at it, but we have the bodies for fighting. We push them to prevent the world from burning. Some don't deserve that. That Gainer kid got roped into this. He could've just been on that Exodus and not cared, but he got involved with us.

But I can see that... that's what we're here for, right? We do our part, they live comfortably without a care.

Yeah. All the kids on this ship deserve to get some semblance of a normal life. I want to make sure they get at least that.
