You mean I'm not the best pilot for the Gundam?!?
[Workaholic Flit has been workaholic recently, just not in the same way as he was before. Rather, he can be found in the simulators, constantly, constantly, constantly going over the combat footage from Desil's hijacking as well as his own first sortie.]
Again.
[-And a very specific moment during his first sortie no less. The UE forces defeated save for a single, black machine that hounded the AGE-1 and pushed it nearly to the brink... the Gundam failing to land a clean shot and instead having to rely on trickery to detonate one of May's grenades and then snipe the-]
Hit... HIT!
[Flit squeezes the trigger, the DODS Rifle firing out two shots in quick succession... but neither one hitting their mark. The mock battle ends abruptly after that, Flit pounding his fist into the side of the chamber in frustration.]
Why... why can't I recreate that moment? I could do it before, shoot that accurately before...!
[A glance up lets Flit see more footage of Desil's own fight playing out, the child pulling off ridiculously complicated maneuvers with the AGE-1 in spite of it being his first time ever piloting it. He'd no doubt be able to pull off that shot on demand. Stupid kid half his age and more than twice his skills! With a frustrated grunt, Flit gets out and sulks away from the simulator, brooding like he's never brooded before.]
This was all just a waste of time.

I understand how it feels, to have others outperform you easily. But you are the one who knows Gundam the best, aren't you?

It feels like there there's a point you can reach, like innate skill or being a prodigy... where no amount of experience or familiarity makes a difference.

That no matter how hard I work and try, others will just effortlessly overcome me...
I think I'd have quit a long time ago.
