*The video flickers on, and...*

Hellooooo!

*You see a young woman waving excitedly and sparkling at the screen.*

Hi! It's nice to meet you all! My name is Misumaru Yurika, captain of Nergal Heavy Industries' private ship, the Nadesico ♥ I heard how you guys stood up to the Federation, and they don't really like us, either, so we wanted to come with you as we go on our mission out into space! That's okay with all of you guys, right?

*She poses, seeming to forget that she's commanding a battleship.*

Don't worry! With another cute girl on your side, you'll never lose!

[Video feed is rather sketchy on Alessandra's side - it's like if she didn't quite grasp how to operate this device yet. Which is exactly the case.]

Is that how it works? Perhaps we should amass more cute girls on our side, then! Our force would surely be undefeatable.

[haetfunerals.livejournal.com]

That's only part of it, but everybody says that a cute girl is good for morale!

[fermionprincess]

Morale is good on board, to the best of my knowledge! Your theory is working in a most splendid way!

[Of course, Alessandra pays attention only to her own morale, and that is always high.]

I expected White Chalice to be singular in its abilities, but apparently there are more. Will the wonders ever cease?

[haetfunerals.livejournal.com]

Not while there are people like us around! It's really inspiring!

[Alexei would transmit from his room, though would be audio only and would be represented by the Rayleonard symbol instead]

So, another ally. Nergal Heavy Industries eh? I haven't heard that name before. You aren't associated with the League are you?

[haetfunerals.livejournal.com]

The important thing about us is that we aren't associated with anyone! That's why we're trying to get away from the Federation. They just want our ship for themselves, and we need to carry out our mission!

[howling-alone.livejournal.com]

I thought not. That name didn't sound familiar at all and I've been with the League for 10 years. Pray tell...what is your mission?

[haetfunerals.livejournal.com]

Have you heard about what happened on Mars a number of years ago? With the colonies that were attacked? The Earth Federation just abandoned them after they lost contact! Even if Earth is in a terrible state itself, that's still no excuse to abandon its own people, so we're on our way to the colonies!

[howling-alone.livejournal.com]

I did, but no LYNX was ever sent to Mars. None of our suits could function in space, let alone make a trip out there. The League's always kept more of an eye on its own investments down on Earth where the Cradles are.

I'm sorry to hear that you were tossed aside. If anything, consider my presence and assistance as help sent by the League...but a few years late.

[haetfunerals.livejournal.com]

Don't worry! That's why we decided to take things into our own hands to help those people! ♥

My name is Werter Wolf and I approve of this message.

[haetfunerals.livejournal.com]

Right? ♥

[saikyocivrobo]

Yeah. If my experience with games taught me anything, the side with more cute girls always wins.

[haetfunerals.livejournal.com]

I'm glad somebody else understands! We'll never lose!

[turningyaponese.livejournal.com]

I don't think having a female captain is going to make anything better... But hopefully you're better at it than the one for this ship...

[haetfunerals.livejournal.com]

Really? What's he like?

[turningyaponese.livejournal.com]

Old. And out of his mind...

[haetfunerals.livejournal.com]

He seemed okay to me!

[turningyaponese.livejournal.com]

Well, he isn't. I mean, it's obvious the guy is senile... Why is he even STILL the captain?!

[haetfunerals.livejournal.com]

Maybe he's secretly good at his job!

[turningyaponese.livejournal.com]

I really doubt that. I don't see how you would get people to follow your command if you can't even be taken seriously for a second.
