Commander-in-chief Antov ordered a quick briefing - in person, not through the broadcasting system. He's there, and he looks very tired. Almost like if he had to deal with a certain inspector drilling into his head how much in trouble Unity Group is due to the latest incident. Which is exactly what happened.
"So. I will try to make this fast."
"Despite our evacuation efforts, the fact remains that there's a big hole where the center of Montreal used to be and there are thousands of people dead. The Republic of Quebec is not an ESUN member so they could interpret it as an attack on their territory."
"They decided not to, fortunately. The Quebec government understands what we were trying to do and it was an accident, but still... the situation doesn't look too good. Macross will move to space at earliest possible opportunity, and I received explicit instructions to keep it away from population centers. Moreover..."
"We are handing over the -Saber units. This is an act of goodwill so to speak. Nobody was using them anyway except for Gavin and his friends, right? Speaking of which... the one good thing that came from this is that there was enough pressure insisting Ilinka Venczel stands trial, they actually pushed for it. She will face a court in four weeks from now on. The Sabers will be transferred out shortly before that."
"This is confidential information and you are not allowed to share it, especially the part about Venczel."

The Commander didn't want you to spread the word - and it's pretty obvious that one of the reasons for that was so Loni doesn't find out too soon.

"No, no, no, no no no no no no no fucking NO!"
He holds his head, eyes staring in shock, in between bouts of thrashing about.
Did Loni learn about the commander's decision somehow, I wonder?

[Asagi really wants to punch Loni. Normally, he'd try. But attacking a prisoner is a different thing entirely.]
I'll talk to the commander about this. And it's not like you can do anything about it. Don't act like you're the victim here.

Well well well. I'm guessing the spoiled brat finally learns that every action has a consequence and is calling the world unfair?
From:
no subject
"All of this... all of this suffering you're putting me through... is just so you can show me how unfair the world is?!"
From:
no subject
Oh please. If I really wanted to show you how unfair the world was, I would have opened this cell, had my team hold you down while I pummeled you senseless and made sure to break your limbs.
[He actually leans closer a bit to bring that disturbing grin to maximum levels of creep.]
I'd imagine being a quadriplegic would be pretty unfair compared to everyone else who has limbs. Maybe I would have blinded you too.
But... since I respect people here in the Unity Group unlike you, I'm not going to fly in the face of regulations and human decency just to satisfy my desire to reduce your face to the consistency of jerk flavored pudding.
[That being said he moves away to lean on a closeby wall to enjoy a packet of pudding.]
Honestly Loni, the real reason I'm here... is so I can laugh at you like the walking joke you are.

"And you are what? You used to be a harmless moron but now you're a fucking villain! And Unity Group lets someone like you walk around their bases?! You're an asshole, a bad guy!"

Sasha crouches down over the ex-Saber pilot. "Look at me. Breath in and out slowly." She says gently. Then she hardens her tone. slightly. "You won't help Ilinka by wailing like a babe."

"Let me be clear, Loni Gavin: I am being serious when I say get a lawyer for Ilinka. She is being charged with a crime, da? She is going before a court of law, da? Then get her the best possible legal defense. Is that not a logical step to take?"

Loni calms down a little.
"Let me get this straight. You want me, trapped in here, without any cash or strings to pull - to find a lawyer?"
From:
no subject
She meets Loni's eyes. "I know several good lawyers. Some of them owe me favors. Say the word, and I will set you up with one of them. Whoever you think is best."
She quietly waits for Loni to ask what the catch is.

"You, too. Why are you trying to help me, out of goodness of your heart? Yeah right. What is it?"
From:

She waves her hand slightly. "Nyet: nothing that violates your moral code or that is beyond your abilities. One day I will ask you to help someone. And you will do it. And then our debt wlll be resolved."

Loni stands up and straightens his back.
"No. Forget it. Like hell this is going to work anyway, and I refuse to get indebted with you people."
"I refuse to get involved."

She hands Loni a card with the flair of a mob boss. "Here's my phone and email. If you do change your mind, I can be reached in an instant."
