In the name of...

[The conversation from a few days' back assured Ren into making this decision.

Here they stand, wearing a pilot suit sans helmet - two obvious reasons get in the way of wearing one.]

Hello again. I was taken to your leaders and just a few moments ago it was made official. Starting from now on, I am Unity Group's newest pilot.

[Salute.]

I can't just sit back and wait while everyone is risking their lives. I'll help too! I had some experience piloting mobile suits already, but it seems it's time to add "combat pilot" to the list of things I've done during my life. Also, well.

I love everyone.

But I understand that sometimes, there is no other option than to hurt someone to save someone. I won't hesitate.

Well then, which one of those would suit me~?

[Ren is checking out Unity Group's hangars, trying to find a unit for themselves. They act more like they're picking up groceries though.]

I must say, the selection is quite amazing! You have some really rare suits... I think. I'm not much of an expert. But some of them don't even look that much used.

We have a number of people with backgrounds in experimental projects around here. As well as representatives of numerous different military units, it's not surprise we'd have a large number of different units. A lot of them are already taken, though.

[jianai]

Don't worry Kei, I'd never take a unit that is already used by someone else.

They use it much better than I would anyway, I am sure.

[majestic_keiki]

I was just trying to explain about them. And be careful looking too closely, some of these units are classified.

[jianai]

Thanks for being thoughtful. I'll ask before I start peeking into cockpits and such.

So... do you have any suggestions, Kei?

[majestic_keiki]

I'm not sure...There are a lot and they handle very differently and I don't know what you're practiced with.

[jianai]

When I was a guard, I worked with something like this.

[Ren walks up to the feet of a genoace.]

It has some weapons I don't recognize, but I'm pretty sure it's the same mobile suit.

[majestic_keiki]

They updated the weapons recently...But maybe doing some simulator training for one of the other kinds of robots we have would be a better idea.

[jianai]

Why's that?

[majestic_keiki]

I've seen far too many genoaces destroyed to recommend anybody use them.

[jianai]

Oh.

I was afraid you'd say something like that.

But it does make sense if I think about it. A mobile suit so widespread that even civilians are allowed to use it - it cannot be too powerful on a real battlefield, can it now?

[majestic_keiki]

I guess you're right...Not sure what would be better. It's been too long since I started learning how to pilot and I don't have wide experience with how different units handle.

[jianai]

Would you like to help me try out various units in the simulator? I am sure it will be enjoyable, not to mention very educational!

[majestic_keiki]

Probably not. I have a lot of tests to run on Purple-2, along with general training of various kinds.

[jianai]

The life of a Majestic Prince is always a busy one, isn't it?

[majestic_keiki]

Yes, it is.

[jianai]

[Spoken while the rest of Team Rabbits is probably goofing off somewhere.]

If you are interested in knowing - if I found anything suitable, I'll be able to tell you later, okay?

If you want to.

[majestic_keiki]

Thanks. I'm mission control, so the more I know about what people use the better.

[jianai]

Oh? I didn't know you had such a responsible task.

I said so much about myself, but I just realized that I know so little about you. It's unfair of me, to speak but not listen.

[majestic_keiki]

There's not much to say. I was at military academy for four years before my team got selected to pilot a number of experimental prototypes. Mine was set up as a mobile command center, so I ended up as mission control.

[jianai]

It sounds like you had your path in life set by a higher power for a long time now. It's not only about your stay with this here Unity Group.

[delouser]

So you've done a lot of things in your life?

[majestic_keiki]

You could say that...

[jianai]

Quite a lot, yes. Groundskeeper, store clerk, guard, babysitter, construction worker, farmer, guide... these are just a few of my professions.

Well, most of them did not last very long. I used to move around a lot, you see.

[jianai]

Kei - I am going to ask a personal question, so I won't feel hurt or offended if you don't want to answer.

Do you like your life?

[delouser]

You could do those with horns on your head?
