Fourth Game

[break_the_nine]

[When Leos was brought back to the Star Rose after the failed attack on the Wulgaru... the state of the Huckebein he came back in was... phenomenal to say the least. Practically EVERYTHING was destroyed except for the cockpit block. EVERYTHING. It lost all its limbs, thrusters, its communications systems were fried, its controls busted, monitors either fallen apart or shorted out, its OS was completely fragged and the oxygen tank died the moment it got back.]

[But what's more he was piloting when he should have been in the off duty roster due to his issues! He hadn't even went for his first meeting with his therapist yet! What does he have to say?]

I'm sorrryyyyy! Its just that this Admiral guy wanted me to turn up... I don't know why but he said if I could make everything look good...

[Wait... was Leos only there because of just how crap a pilot he was? Was it to boost morale that even raw rookies like him would be able to take on the Wulgaru... or was it to make Team Rabbits look better? Either way though.... we all know the results.]

I know I shouldn't have been out there... but I really wanted to help! I won't let anyone talk me into something like this again! I promise!

[He ducks his head, looking painfully apologetic.]

Damnit Leos, you almost died out there. I told you to be careful.

[break_the_nine]

I'm sorry! I didn't think it'd be that bad! The Admiral Guy said it'd be really easy and that someone like me wouldn't have to worry so much!

[cloningblues]

I have no idea what that guy was thinking. Or who made him admiral in the first place.

You wanted to get your AC back, didn't you? Sounds like this had the opposite effect.

[break_the_nine]

I know...

[Leos hangs his head, feeling so very dismal.]

I mean I was bad before but this is crazy! Everything broke in it!

[cloningblues]

Mistakes were made. We're lucky we had strong backup.

Although it'd help if you pulled back after you got damaged too much, instead of pushing even harder to the front line.

[break_the_nine]

I know, I know...

But you and Izuru were being shot at, I had to try...

[cloningblues]

[Sigh.] Yeah, I know how you felt. But you'll never get your AC back if you almost die every time you deploy.

Stay away from that admiral for the time being.

[break_the_nine]

Kay!

... I'm really glad you're okay too.

[cloningblues]

Mostly okay. But yeah. So am I.
