Super Robot Wars Unlimited Generation @lpha

1) // ACTION //

[Flynn is in the infirmary after his exertion during the previous mission. Despite everything, he actually doesn't have any major injuries. He was just dehydrated slightly and exhausted. He wakes up the next day, and spends it staring at the ceiling silently unless of course, someone were to come see him.]

2) // JOURNAL //

[Posted to his personal journal, but still publicly accessible.]

Conor is an idiot. I always assumed he had thought everything through, it's what leaders should do.

This proved that he didn't. He was so sold on an instant fix that he was willing to throw his life away on a gamble. A gamble which would push the world even further from his dream.

I get it now, that's what it is, a dream. There is no way the world will become that within our lifetimes. It's not possible. And even if it was, it's unnatural.

But I don't know what to do now. So I'll stay here, and see more of the world today. Then I'll decide what to do.

[Kou's been watching some of those announcements about the meteor and the Federation claiming that they had some sort of super laser ready to pulverize it. The scowl on his face is easily one of disgust.]

Bullshit. There's no way these guys have some sort of super laser to be used. Not this fast! They were dependent on the iDOLs, right? If they had this laser all this time, why didn't they use it before now?

[he simmers just a bit.]

Hell, why aren't they just using it now?! Something about this stinks and I don't like it!

[Following that last fight with the harvesters Rim seemed to be standing on the remaining arm of the Aile staring at the severed limb. She looked ready to start crying at any moment.]

Why did you have to do this?! Josh is going to be so mad.

[At the moment she seemed to mostly be yelling at..herself?]

1) [If you're watching outside, you might be greeted by a strange surprise - a Gundam racing by at high speeds. Even though it's on Earth's gravity, the fact that it's incredibly fast gives it the illusion of it actually flying unassisted as its put through its paces.]

2) [After a while, the Gundam finally returns to the Chalice, docking. The cockpit opens up, revealing Kou with a big smile on his face.]

Man, such power! It's faster than anything I've seen! Now I see why it's a hit and run unit - it's fast enough to confuse just about anyone!

1. [Hangar]

[During what should have been a rather calm moment on the Chalice the Aile Chevalier seemed to have gone missing from the hangar for several hours. When it finally returns it does so recklessly nearly crashing into other machines. Although the pilot didn't seem to care and just parked the blue machine back into where they found it.

Once the cockpit opened anyone familiar with who piloted the machine would be surprised to find not Josh but Rim in there instead looking rather angry.]

2. [Cafeteria]

[Later Rim could be found sulking while getting rid of something in the kitchen. There was a terrible smell coming from whatever she was trying to trash.]

[Video]

So I hear tale of other swordsmen- and swordswomen I guess, on this ship. I'm no stranger to a blade myself, and I'd hate to go rusty from lack of practice. Anyone up for the occasional friendly match? I'm on the observation deck if you're interested.

[Action]

As promised, he's on the observation deck. He's sitting crosslegged with his back to the railing at the edge, and has a pair of straight longswords in his lap, the only difference between them being that one is made of some kind of plastic and doesn't have a sharp edge. Safe enough to fight without risk of injury but hard enough to give you a few bruises if you don't pay attention.

[Later, when the mysterious lizard golems had repaired the damage to Sigil once again, Wendell headed over to the hangar. Joshua had promised to help him train his newfound skills of creation, though Wendell still had some lingering doubt. Doing a once-over on the repaired areas, Wendell ran his hand over one spot that had been nearly destroyed. It was nearly impossible to tell where the seams of the repairs were. A thought, constant and ever present in his mind, made Wendell climb up and into Sigil. He wasn't even sure why he checked. Mana was still there, seemingly asleep, in the center of Sigil's controls chamber. Wendell reached out a hand and brushed her hair, but didn't smile. She was still cold in death.]

[He hopped down, shoving aside the dark thoughts of failure. Wendell leaned against Sigil's leg to wait for Joshua to show up.]

[[OOC: Mainly post for Joshua, but others can come in and bother him before or after training.]]

[Now it stood that, most likely, Adventus' generals stood before them. Each of them incredibly tough with abilities that went far beyond what they had! Now, Roux wasn't commander material, that's for sure. She's a soldier and a pilot, yes, but while she isn't leadership material, she isn't stupid. Which is why she's spending her time looking over the mission files of the fights between the Generals and coming up with notes.]

( Inside the notes )

Mmm, I really don't like this at all. All four seem to have technology that surpasses just about everyone else's. But, the question now is how? This doesn't seem like something that could be done overnight!

[Upon the Chalice's arrival at ORB anyone who went out into the city would find dozens of fliers everywhere offering a free meal to any member of the White Chalice in a nearby Coffee Shop.]

[Anyone who actually went into the shop with a flier was greeted by a very enthusiastic girl in an apron. ~~Who strangely sounds a lot like Yurika.]~~

Welcome to D-Coffee!

[Admittedly, Kou wouldn't talk too much about his time at Anaheim, nothing more than he finally had his head straightened on a bit after that. ~~Of course, there's also the fact that he was saved by a one-armed man, but, eh...~~ Now back on Earth, Kou was focusing on testing out their new toy, the RX-78GP00 Gundam "Blossom". It was better to see what it could do before he hauled it out for an actual battle.

And it was a good thing, too. The unit seemed so off-balanced in moving and the massive beam rifle, while powerful, took a lot out of the suit's battery.

Returning to the hangar, Kou hopped out of the GP-00 and removed his helmet.]

Now I'm starting to understand why the other Units were made... this thing is a train wreck waiting to happen!

[Currently, Josh is sitting atop the wrecked form of the Aile Chevalier, chewing thoughtfully on some random bit of food he'd nicked from the kitchen. What with still having all the supplies meant for the other half of that "round trip" to Mars, they certainly had a surplus on their hands right now. And there was quite a lot on his mind right, enough that the damage done to the Aile didn't really phase him at all.]

What happened out there...

... We were lucky. Haruka, Vlaska... you did a very brave thing out there. Just know sometimes just sitting there and tanking everything coming at you isn't going to be the best solution.

[Later, to Wendell.]

Colossi on Mars... I really hope we're not going to have to go out into the rest of the Universe to track them down... Come to think of it, when'd you get a bow?

[In some part of the Chalice, the smell of some of the best damn coffee you've ever come across has begun to waft into your surroundings. And shortly after smelling it, you might just catch sight of Joshua as well, drifting around with a plastic, tear-shaped cup in hand filled with coffee. And god damn would you just look at the smile on his face.]

Alright... I don't know about any of you, but I'm feeling better than I have in the past few months. Yeah, I know there's plenty of crap going on, but when isn't it?

[And it's at this point he holds out the cup, offering it to you.]

It's my sister's brew; the one thing she can make well. And she makes it really well... though for the life of me I always seem to forget how great it is. Certainly makes every batch taste as good as the first one she ever made though.

I'd finally got around to it after ~~Luger ate the toxins~~ finishing off the rest, but when I started drinking this, I just thought... well, no need to keep it all to myself. Especially since, well I did just say plenty of crap's going on. But that's all the more reason to keep your spirits up!

(The cup in question is specifically designed to let people drink open beverages in zero-g, and yes, it really does exist.)

[Meanwhile back on the Chalice anyone that went into the hangar would notice Canon packing up most of the equipment she brought with her in her pilot suit.

It was quite easy to figure out that she was planning on leaving the group. She wasn't sure herself why she didn't leave earlier when Gato was beaten, she simply reasoning that she wasn't thinking properly. None the less she seemed quite determined on leaving.

Say something to her?]

[Soon enough the replacement Fafner pilot has left the Chalice to return to the Federation.]

[Message]

Everyone!

Um...thank you. Gato has been defeated. I feel like there is more that I need to atone for, but...

Then, I saw everybody. A variety of people here aboard the Chalice. This isn't about Zeon or Federation. Everybody has something or someone they want to protect.

But for me, as a pilot, not sure on how helpful I can be.

[ACTION; In the Hanger]

...?!

[From the fight against the Delaz Fleet and the TITANS, a bunch of Zaku were brought back. Bernie looked pretty surprised. He was on a ship full of pirates.]

After the battle for Bunch 30, just as everyone is getting read to go, a dented old pickup truck drives up to the White Chalice party. It is followed by a decent sized red mech, carrying a sword and shield. While it wasn't able to directly help out, some of you may remember catching glimpses of the red robot beating up the various monsters and metoids while you all were fighting Abyss. The truck's driver gets out and waves for someone's attention before everyone's gone.

"Hey! Permission to come aboard?"

[Later, on the Chalice. The truck is parked in the hangar next to the red robot and a tent. Njall has commandeered a video console somewhere.]

Greetings, warriors of the famous White Chalice! I am Njall, son of Erland, and I wish to join your band.

[He looks around.]

It looks like there's no shortage of space, at least. This ship is HUGE.

[There is an unidentified person now present within your sights. He seems to be scrounging through belongings like a raccoon in a garbage can. Start screaming at him to stop?]

2)

[Luger is now at the arbortoreum, taking deep drags of his cigarette. And there seems to be an open pack next to him as well as several spent butts littering the ground. His hands are trembling wildly as he breathes out the smoke.

Scold him for his chain-smoking?]

3)

I guess I owe you guys one... Name's Luger. Used to be a Militia Pilot for Waechter Colony.

[He trembles as he introduced himself and palms the side of his head.]

Damn... need a smoke... I don't have to say what might have happened back home since you saw what I was fighting...

[The surviving captured Disciple of Baphomet is in the brig and has been since the fight with them a week ago. He seems rather resigned. He eats and sleeps and exercises but doesn't do much else. He hasn't tried to escape, nor has he really complained.]

[A very tired looking Allelujah stands at the edge of the shooting range, a single pistol in one hand, and a bullseye in seven of the targets down the range - only one of them in his own lane. He doesn't look terribly angry, but the severe, almost feverish look he has whenever he takes aim at another target betrays the passionate fury behind those eyes. A sharp sound rang through the room. Eight bullseyes.]

[Despite having been kept up for a full day by the explosions, the pilot doesn't seem to intend to quit any time soon; if the knife being tossed slowly up and down in his free hand is any indication, he's not leaving until every potentially lethal weapon in the room has been used to pin a target against the wall. Approaching him now could be potentially hazardous, dependent on who it is.]

[Do it anyway?]

[As he tends to do after a mission, Werter is sitting in the cafeteria, drinking a tea. He's talking to himself, to anyone willing to listen, and to Prometheus who does a half-assed job at pretending he's listening to his partner.]

Humans were behind Elemental attacks all along... Disciples of Baphomet, was it? I always thought that god was just created by some New Age guy in XIX century, and now it turns out to be real... Maybe. Maybe they're just a bunch of crazies. That sounds more likely than not, actually.

Poor townspeople. At least none of them died, but they will have to spend Christmas rebuilding their homes from scratch. Once again, the place we visit becomes a ruin.

I didn't know your drill can turn into such a powerful gun up until now, Prometheus. What other secrets are you hiding?

[Despite their situation getting a bit better...all things considered. Ichitaka didn't seem to be cheerful as usual. He was lying face down on some grass in the Arboretum mumbling to himself.]

Maybe I am making everyone mad at me...

[ Almost one week after the shooting, Char's lung is fully re-inflated. While he's still unable to walk and has begun basic physical therapy - mostly leg stretches to prevent atrophy - he is finally able to get out of bed and be wheeled around in a wheelchair, is able to eat on his own, and can talk. He still talks very quietly, and has a mobile oxygen tank with a tube leading underneath his nostrils to help with his breathing, and is still hooked up to an IV with pain medicine, but he's no longer on a large dose of morphine. Most of his surgery is done, as well. He is expected to make a full recovery.

You might be able to catch Char being wheeled to the mess hall. He's eating soft foods, but at least he's out of bed. ]

... You know... I hate to rub salt on wounds, and with all apologies to Federation pilots onboard, both those currently on the payroll and those that have left...

But it feels like the Federation could do a better job keeping their turf in order. Since we've come here, we've ran into Adventus people and Zeon too... along with mercenaries I'm pretty sure even the Titans would be hesitant to hire.

Is it always like this?

[Boy, did Kou feel like crap. Freetown was ravaged by that Zeon attack, and in his first sortie with a Gundam, he got his ass handed to him by Gato. Who, coincidentally, ran off with two nukes. And still, Synapse let him use the GP-01 in their mission to find and retake the Gundam.]

[Standing in the hangar, Kou looked at the still-battered and headless GP-01, lost in thought.]

...Gato... I'll stop you. And get back the Unit 2...
