A Second introduction

[ugyuuya]

[1]

[After his last rather disastrous mission in Russia Yuuya had been re-routed to the Yukon base with Lt. Takamura, argos support staff, and the remains of the Shiranui Second. The consoles at UG bases are all tuned to the special reveal of the just what had been happening during that time frame.

With much pomp and ceremony the Shiranui Second Phase Two has been revealed. Tarisa is piloting the unit for the ceremony while Yuuya watches with Vincent from inside the hangar.]

[Upon return to Alhambra there are two of the newly revealed units, one with the rather blatant ceremonial paint job and the other with a much darker blue/black paint job. Exiting the brighter one Yuuya stretches and yawns as he disembarks.]

"Man, after all that mess in Russia and the rapid rebuild into phase 2 I'm glad to be back. Never thought things would be more relaxing at a front line combat base than a testing facility."

It's just about down shift now. I'm about to go get a good night's rest on a nice mattress and then wake up showered and clean in the morning which is a LOT nicer than some things I've had to do. TSFs may be well designed and meant for extended operations but they get awfully uncomfortable in endurance trials.

I can imagine. The AHSMBs might be cutting edge experimental units, but I wouldn't want to stay in Purple-2 for hours or days on end...I imagine it would be the same with TSFs or any other military vehicle.

Actually I found some of the APCs that were used in basic to be fairly nice vehicles to ride in. Completely useless in the current conflicts outside of evacuation tools, but comfortable.

I see. I've never driven one, we mostly stuck to mecha of various kinds in my training and helicopters and the like for moving around on Earth. I can imagine sitting in an APC where you can move a bit and have a proper seat would be more comfortable.
