[With the Earth remaining under siege and no end being in sight, the ESUN has asked Unity Group to provide some of its pilots to visit various workplaces to build morale and Commander Antov agreed. Different groups have been sent, but you've been paired with Kei as you get to pretend to work everywhere from a kindergarten to a hospital to more unusual places. Whatever you're doing, she's clearly uncomfortable and trying to avoid letting it show. What kind of place are you currently at?]

[In the car between two places late in the day, Kei is very quiet and just trying to focus her attention on some weird drink.]
Why did they think this was a good idea?

She's not exactly in her best shape. But this is much better than taking part in battles.]
Um...do you mean that it did not work the previous times...?

...If you do not feel that you can keep up...I will help in any way I can.
It would not be wise if I simply stepped out there, however.

[Setsuko reads from the notes.]
As deputies for the day, we will participate in short patrol. Each deputy needs a partner so... any volunteers?
[After an initial second of surprise, the trainees almost start climbing one over another. There is a lot of volunteers, including female ones.]

Hello. I'll be counting on you, okay?

Hi, I guess we'll be partners for this.

[Eva's wearing a too-big pink sweater and jeans for this shift at the kindergarten. A small child of some sort is on her back, peering over her shoulder.]

Re: 1
You're right. [She glances at the kids trying to avoid noticing their increasingly impatient looks and manages a very faint smile.]
From:
Re: 1
[Eva turns towards the impatient crowd of kids. She puts the one riding on her down, then grabs an apple that one of the children had given to them earlier.]
Kids, never do this.
[Eva takes out two throwing knives, tossing them into the air with one hand. They make a lazy loop, before Eva catches them in the apple. While the kids look on in shock, she cuts a slice out of the fruit and eats it.]
From:
Re: 1
...Please don't do that again.

The Legion Hunter, though, is clearly much less concerned with the cameras than with actually helping. And Ashe's approach to other people's plans tends to be, famously, easily likened to a bull in a glass shop. So she's completely derailing the whole thing both her and the production crew are getting increasingly testy. On the plus side, Kei, that's a few eyes less on you]
Hey! You with the camera! Get out of the way! What part of "construction work in progress" didn't you get?

But then, Ashe has always had a subversive streak. She's clearly enjoying sticking it a bit to Kei's handlers and keeping them on their toes constantly. You told her she was going to get to help people in this trip, and she is going to do so.]
C'mon, Kei! Wanna give me a hand? We're setting foundations and doing some preliminary filling next - do you know how to drive?

"Kitty!"
"Say Meow kitty! Say Meow!"
[That is... visit children who may possibly have been injured in one of the various sieges and incidents that have happened across the world. One would think that given his personality he would be highly annoyed with the children and threaten them with a mauling...]
Meow.
[He doesn't. As a matter of fact he's actually being very patient with the children, never mind if they tug at his ears or tail - he'd just pull away before butting his head at them.]

Meow.
[Said child seemed to have just stopped, looking a little confused and bewildered before simply sitting back. Skald then trots over to one of the others who was trying to reach out to him and promptly deposited himself on the kid's lap like a voluminous blanket and purred.]
"He's very warm."
"Awww! How come he likes you more?"
"Maybe he wasn't the one who liked pulling on his tail so much."
"You pulled on his ears!"

[Asagi is also assisting with the kindergarten visit. Looks like he's pretty good at dealing with children...]
"It's the funny guy from the movie! I want to see him!"
"Me too!"
"And me! Show us a funny trick, funny guy!"
[...To a point. The group of kids swarming him is growing bigger and bigger.]
A ha ha... Help?

How about... We eat some sweets...?
"Yay, candy!"
"Aw, but it's dinner soon. We can't eat sweets before dinner..."
"Oh, yeah... Poo..."
[Welp, that failed. But there's always another option...]
How about we make sweets, then? You can eat them after dinner.
"You kbow how to make candy, funny guy?"
No. but I know someone who can.

Kei? Let's make something like rice cakes or muffins. Something simple, that little kids can do.
