A New Hero...does not enter the battlefield.

[Backdated to just before "War of Myths"]

Sometime in the wee hours of the evening, a large, unmarked flatbed trailer rolls it's way into grounds of Saikhama base, parking itself in the hanger bay by an unused mech gantry. The moment the trailer stops, orange suited technicians rush out of the side doors and pull the tarp off of Solaris's latest creation:

As they begin to hoist the mech up to a standing position with cranes, one of the technicians takes a step away, looks around, and sees some familiar faces.

She waves with her clipboard. "YO! Mizuki my girl! Miss Harper! Look what I brought for you guys!

[After "The War of Myths Mission"]

In the wake of the battle with ancient gods, the senior Solaris technician looks up at the fearsome ScarleTiger, newly baptized in battle.

Specifically, she's staring slack-jawed at the various bit's of damage it's suffered.

Finally, she groans and turns away.

"Nope. NoNoNope. Screw it; I'll fix it tomorrow."

[Ms. Harper doesn't look too eager to join in, but there's Mizuki looking over at her expectantly.]

Alright, come on Sara. Don't make the Savior Team look bad here. Give her a high five.



... Fiiiiine.

[And high five get!]

"Alright!" Dido says. "The three angels of Solaris, back together again!"

She tucks her clipboard under her arm. "So what have you guys been up to? I heard you got involved in a few skirmishes..."

Skirmishes, she says.

Less "angels" and more "Saviors". Mizuki decided we're the 'Savior Team'.



I like the term and I feel it's appropriate. And yes; Ken, Sara, and myself have gotten into a couple of battles, though we've done well enough so far.

Ken's going to appreciate this new machine to. The-

[Time for a closer inspection!]

... Tiger-themed. Rather appropriate.

"Savior, eh?" Dido says, mulling over the word in her mouth like a vintage of wine. "Good ring to it."

She notes Mizuki's comment about ScarleTiger. "Well, it's not exactly the most stealthy thing out there, but otherwise, it's got everything a growing ninja needs: stabbiness, whippiness, speed, and a face-mounted flame cannon!"

She pumps a fist, then frowns in thought. "Do you think this Ken guy has the jets to pilot it?"

[empress_without_a_throne]

Probably. He's had to work with Genoaces this whole time, not exactly the most ideal of machines for that. And if the Tiger's even half as good as you say, then it's still an undeniable improvement.



And that's also two of the three we're going to be having for 'SolSavior'...

What's the situation on mine then?
