1) [Announcement]

[There's something coming on everyone's screens. Oh look its Mad, looking drunk - oh dear he fell over with a thump before crawling back up into view.]

Hey... everyone... I'm guessing you all know who the hell I am... bet I caused a lot headaches and shit and ticked off a lot of people...

[Mad takes a deep breath and...belches, quickly rubbing his mouth.]

But what I gotta say is really important... the truth is... I'm a girl... I made a promise when I was a kid and... honestly that shit hasn't worked out for me at all... so.. fuck it. I'm just done with it. I figured you guys should know...

[SHE turns around but holds up a hand drunkenly.]

Now that thas over... I got something to say to Doc 'yame and Marxhene... KISS MAH ASS!!! Can't blackmail me anymore CAN YA?!

[With that she promptly moons the screen and.. well.. lets just say you can all definitely tell she IS a girl. There's a loud thump as Mad falls over and the feed shuts off.]

2) [Action]

[Mad groans in pain as the hangover sets in... she's now wandering around the halls of the chalice scratching her rear and rubbing her face.]

Fuuuuck....my heeeead...

[Confront her about her announcement?]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[Sora happens to come across Mad while in the halls on an unrelated errand. Upon seeing the other girl, Sora just stops in front of her and takes stock for a bit, verifying it's true.]

Well, I'm an idiot.

What's up with you?

[Mad was giving Sora a mildly annoyed look. The way the redhead was looking at her was discomforting to say the least.]

I just feel stupid for not noticing something so obvious, when it was right in front of me the whole time. I never thought we'd be similar.

Wha?

[Mad's looking uber confused here Sora. She doesn't understand the meaning behind your statement.]

The fuck's that supposed to mean?

[Obvious? What's obvious?...She can't mean- noooo nono. No way. She did such a good job hiding it.]

It means you're very good at hiding your true nature. Quite a bit better than I was, even when I was actually trying. I'd have never guessed you were a girl if you hadn't told us.

[Well. No more beating around the bush, then.]

[Sora, if you could hear Mad's thought processes... you would be treated to the sound of an entire group of trains derailing.]

I...said...what?

[Mad's voice went pretty damn high at that.]

You said you made a promise to someone... and that you were done with it. You also said someone was blackmailing you... Ayame, I think. [Sora frowns for a moment at that name, but she doesn't continue speaking.]

...

[Mad steps aside... calmly turns the corner... and screams. VERY VERY LOUDLY.... which soon bites her in the ass as she curls up in PAIN from the sheer loud she let out affecting her hangover.]

[Sora's hands ball into fists; she strides quickly but softly around the corner at the scream but catches Mad's physical pain, keeping her voice low but making sure she's heard.]

Hey, calm down! I'm not gonna do anything to you. Hell, aside from answering a few questions, this doesn't change anything.

Th- The hell it does! I..... I..

[Mad just doesn't know what to say. She was always so worried about someone blowing the whistle on her secret and then she finds out she blew it herself yesterday.]

You're still the same inside, Mad. You just have a few different parts than we expected on the outside. And honestly, a lot of us don't care about that. Why should we? Some of our strongest pilots are women.

Its...not that I just.... its.... I promised... I...

[Mad's just stumbling over this. She promised her dad that she'd be a hero just like him... and Mad's thought... the best idea was to try to be a man... that didn't really work out well..]

I...

[Oddly enough... it felt like a weight had been lifted a little.]

Sometimes you have to realize that a promise you made is only hurting you. Maybe I'm not seeing the whole picture here, but I don't think any promise is worth living a lie.

[Sora chuckles darkly.] Not that I'm one to talk. There's a reason I said we're similar.

...

[Mad really isn't sure what to say... she looks aside and feels more exhausted than when she woke up.]

[Sora sighs, sliding over to next to Mad and leaning against the wall, a small smile on her face.]

I'm... not good at talking, if you haven't noticed. Hell, I was originally looking for you to apologize because I ran my mouth too much before.

But if you ever want someone to talk to... I don't mind listening.

[There. There's no way she said anything offensive there, right?]

[Nope. Looks like Sora managed to get this one right.]

Thanks... I guess..

God its going to feel weird...
