Wouldn't have picked the two of them for Heroes...

Those who stop by the Sakihama Base's main hanger bay may notice a new addition to the mecha menagerie, techs repairing minor damage to it's back and right arm.

You may recognize the mecha in question– from the news, by reputation, or from your model kits: the Kaiju-slaying Jaeger, Gispy Danger!

At the base of the Mark III Jaeger, while welding sparks rain down over their heads, two brothers in matching bomber jackets clink their bottles of beer together.

Yancy Beckett looks up as you approach, and fishes out another bottle from the cooler. "Hey there! We were just celebrating our fifth battle; care to join us?"

Later on, you can see Yancy hanging out in one of the lounges, chewing on his lip as he works on a Rubix cube. Care to offer some advice?

Around the same time, you might run across Raleigh in the gym, sweat staining his tank-top as he runs through a set of staff forms, using martial arts techniques from all over the place. Surprise attack him?

"A very poetic way of putting it. And true." Yancy says, nodding to Hetephares, then digging around in the cooler at his feet.

"Would you like some beer? Or is yeast and carbohydrates poisonous for your species?"

[abugslife]

I doubt it. My ancestors already encountered beer when they went to Earth thousands of years ago, and it was not poisonous for them. So unless your recipe has changed drastically since then...

[genericbiggerbrother]

"I don't think so..." Yancy muses. "Where exactly did your ancestors land when they went to Earth?"

[abugslife]

Egypt, of course. Where did you think our cultural inspirations came from?

[genericprotagonist]

And your fashion. Nice headpiece by the by.

[Raleigh gave his brother a grin.]

[abugslife]

Thank you. What is clothing, but just another facet of out cultural heritage?

And now, the beer.

[genericbiggerbrother]

Yancy pops open a brown bottle and hands it over.

"Do keep in mind that modern beer is a bit less...bread-like, compared to Egyptian brews." Yancy warns.

[abugslife]

I am alright with that. For how much I heard about bread and how it is a mainstay of Earthling diet, after I got to taste it myself, it turned out to be rather disappointing.

[Hetepheres takes a small sip from the bottle. Then a larger one, as if to confirm that the taste sensation is indeed accurate. Her expression doesn't change.]

...It seems that this is one quality beer still has in common with bread, I am afraid.

[genericbiggerbrother]

"Sorry about that." Yancy says sympathetically. "Would something with more sugar be to your taste?"

[abugslife]

No, I do not think the problem lies in this direction.

I have a very high, augmented resistance to poisons of all kinds. This includes alcohol as well. Because of that, this just tastes like bitter water.
