[Due to an increasing number of mixed operations (and in part to satisfy general pilot curiosity) the TSF detachment has scheduled a training event for other UG personnel to familiarize themselves with TSF piloting at their own pace. Unable to provide the full simulator support onsite at a UG location the event is scheduled to take place at the Yokohama training base.
The day is split between use of the simulators in the morning to instill the basics and more advanced maneuvers in the Fubuki training TSFs using a modified dual seat cockpit allowing members of the Argos flight to take control in case of emergency.]
[2] - Semi-locked to Raquel
[Tarisa is suited up in her TSF suit minus the HUD interface waiting for Raquel to meet for the arranged spar the two had decided upon after discussing her last run in with the Shura. Looking up as the door opens the look of excitement and anticipation on her face is obvious.]
Certainly took long enough for our schedules to match up for this, wouldn't you agree?

[The usual suspect for shenanigans is here. Izuru also dragged his whole team along - or rather parts of it that did not protest too violently.]

They can't be all that different, can they? And besides, it's just a sim!

Alright, looks like you've suited up well enough with the Lieutenants and I'm assuming they gave you the basic safety briefing about not trying anything too crazy before you get used to piloting. It's going to be pretty different from your regular units but go ahead and step up. We'll start you on the basic movement course but don't try anything fancy with the boosters until you've had a chance to see how the auto-balancer reacts to landings.

[Stella's smile seems sincere enough but something about the way she spoke seemed to be ever so slightly off-putting. As the simulated cockpit closes you feel the the contact points on your suit bolt into the seat and the HUD flashes across your eyes with standard boot messages and a large LEVEL C across it. Shortly thereafter the scene resolves into an urban setting and your radar indicates approximately two dozen targets moving in various patterns.]

Do you people really pilot in those suits all the time? It feels... distracting.

She tilted her head a bot as she spots her friend and grins wildly at her.
"So this has been quite a training day hasn't it? I was still expecting to be poured into a mould to get me to fit into. Still you were not kidding about what they can do. I got to admit I'm intending to try and get actually certified the Amazon is an amazing machine but I'd be foolish not to be able to use something else if it was unable to function, right?"
She does a dew stretches as she takes a moment to consider a new comment.
"I was thinking I'd have to start punching time it self!"
She sounds like she might be serious about attempting to do that one too. She finishes up her stretches and looks back one last time.
"I'm ready if you are. Note I won't be exploding anything..."
She lowers her body into a ready stance looking Tarisa over as she makes the bring it on gesture with her right hand.

And why are you here?

Alright, that's about enough of that for now everyone. Izuru was correct as to why the coating is more translucent but the suit itself is designed to protect you from the G-Forces of piloting a TSF since they tend to be a lot more abrupt in directional changes then most other units.
Everyone into the simulators and we'll get started. The first thing that will happen is an abbreviated adjustment process where you'll experience some of the common TSF maneuvers as closely as we can replicate them just to confirm there's no motion sensitivity issues and then we'll swap over to the movement training.
[True to his word after you are all secured into the simulator cockpits they begin to follow a programmed course of running, abrupt turns and boost, and even a few simulated leaps and landings. The movement is a bit rougher than you've experienced in other suits and once the program is complete the HUD projectors on your headpiece project an urban environment with a series of way points and a set of instructions on what order and how to approach each point beginning with running and continuing on through boosting, jumping, and finally NoE flight to the most distant way point.]
Alright looks like everything is good from the monitors, anyone feeling off before we move ahead with the training? If not then go ahead and try running, basic controls for movement are thought controlled while the sticks control weapon systems.

[Tarisa readies herself in her own stance with her closed right hand out furthest from her body and her left behind it open but curled to strike or grab as needed.]
Well then I guess I'll start the dance.
[Tarisa moves in quickly with a frontal charge to attempt to draw a response from the taller Brazilian's longer reach but stopping short just before she would enter the reach to step to the left and try to get closer to strike at Raquel's right side.]

[Izuru's virtual TSF is looking around excitedly.]
Piloting AHSMB is more natural, this has more controls... oof!
[Watch out where you're going, you might run into something. The terrain for example.]

[Leos was wrong on that actually. TSFs are built more for speed than most regular AC designs. It was a bit quicker than he would have expected and he had yet to compensate for it.]

I'm glad you're enjoying it guys but take it a bit easier would you? There's still plenty of time to get the basics down and if you break the simulators we'll have no end of hell to pay from Dr. Kouzuki and after her little display in the training exercise I'm not certain how safe any of us would be after that.

She's scary...

[Well, seems Asagi is doing somewhat better than the two derps. Probably because he actually bothers to actually follow the instructions.]
Are those simulators really that easy to break?
From:
1 really for anyone who wants to reply, or VG, or Yuuya
[Oh hey, Ms. Ootori seems to have gotten signed up as well. If the training suit makes her nervous, it's not showing.]
I'm having a little trouble with the retinal projection system...ah, if you could help me, I'd be ever so grateful...

It seems like a pretty bad idea. Simulators are supposed to be there to allow people to screw up without consequence.
From:
no subject
The sims are breakable but it's not easy to do. Given the rather spectacular performance Leos has shown with mecha destruction in the past and Izuru's special nature I figured if anyone could use the warning it was them.
They've both improved a lot though so it's really more over-cautionary and a broken sim usually isn't a big deal in most bases but I did hear that the not-so-good doctor has a pretty specific interest in this base and it's facilities. I'd rather be safe than sorry in that case.
