Enter the Lightning

[booty_chaser]

Well, that's that!

[Ashe and her friends have hauled the captured Raiders temporarily into the cells at Alhambra base, with the permission of Unity command, until they know what to do with them, since there were rather more than expected. And as she comes up from the cells, she dusts off her hands and grins]

Now for introductions and stuff. So, hey everyone, I'm Ashe. I'm a Hunter for the Legion. Thanks for the assist before - that could have got a bit hairy. [What, does she mean it didn't?]

We'll be with you a few days while we get word on where these guys we captured should go. Don't worry, we won't be a bother, right guys?

Oh, and on the Biometal thing - I know you're probably curious, but I honestly have no idea what happened there, either. Sorry! Model A apparently also doesn't - he says he can't remember much except that he really doesn't want that Prometheus guy to get his hands on him.
Sorry.
He says he's sorry about that.

So, anyway, nice to meet you all! See you around!

[If you want to find her to talk to her, though, she'll be really easy to find around the base and the hangar, since she and her friends were allowed to bring in their ship for a checkup]

Can I see it? I have some interest in such items from the past. You could even say the city where I live was built on them.

[booty_chaser]

I don't know, let me ask him. What do you think, Model A?

Alright, alright. But no touching!

He says it's okay, as long as you don't touch him. Little guy has some trust issues.

I was almost kidnapped by a crazy guy with a laser scythe! I'm allowed to have trust issues!

[Still, the small, rhomboid Biometal comes out of Ashe's jacket, floating silently, since Roger can't hear him]

[a_louse]

[Roger takes a good look at Model A. No touching though, as he was told.]

Hmm... I don't think it contains any Memories. That's good. It's wiser to just stay away from them.

From what you're saying, I take that Model A can talk? I can't hear anything, though.

[booty_chaser]

Yeah, apparently only a few people can hear Biometals speak. Model A was super surprised when I could hear him!

The only people who can hear me are people who I could link with, I think.

He says only those he could link with can hear him. Probably.

[a_louse]

Link? How does that work?

[Ashe's hand grabs Model A as she swings it in front of her like a whip, grinning]

More or less like this.

MEGAMERGE!

[...aaand a flash of light later the Model A Megaman is standing there in all her glory]

Pretty neat, huh?

[a_louse]

So it works as a portable suit of armor? Quite handy, I must say.

[booty_chaser]

Armor, weapons, and powers, all in one! It's pretty sweet, I have to admit.

[a_louse]

I wonder how does it work. Does Model A turn into a suit, or do you somehow fuse together? It's called a merge, after all.

[booty_chaser]

I think it's a kind of fusion?

Yeah, I think so.

[a_louse]

So you're not sure how it works for certain.

But you know what it can do, at least?

[booty_chaser]

Well, it definitely feels like a fusion, you know what I mean? But I haven't actually checked yet.

And mostly, yeah. I get super speed, super strength, some extra instincts, I can shoot lasers and lightning and a couple other stuff... oh, and I can turn into the guy I took out before!

[a_louse]

Could you elaborate more on that last point?
