That which cuts
1. [The previous mission had ended relatively well. And so, one may find Seta actively using her phone without minding her surroundings...even as she walks or eats. It seems like she's gotten a lesson on how to finally use the device from someone, for better or worse.
If a person actually manages to peek at the screen though (it's not hard at all), they'll see many out-of-focus pictures of what looks like white scales. There are more blurred images like these, including one that seems to depict a wolf-like creature tackling a serpent-thing, and a random shot of many long, black limbs...and a wine glass.
Whoever took these obviously didn't wait for the auto-focus to kick in and snapped them straight away, making it difficult to tell exactly what they are...even so...]
So, this is what it does...
On top of making calls, as well...what else is it capable of...?
...Aah...this technology...is incredible...!

2. [On a more serious note: like in Alhambra a while ago, Seta now stands facing a group of dummies out on an empty square that is located somewhere in the uninhabited parts of Sakihama City.
This time, attached to the left side of her waist by red ribbons, are a pair of curved swords. Together, a set like this is known as a daisho, and in this case, said set is comprised of a long katana and a shorter wakizashi.]
...
[The strange part of this is that she's been doing nothing but staring at the dummies. Her right hand rests on the longer blade's handle - there's a firm grip, but she never draws it.
Minutes and hours go by...and still, nothing happens...until she lowers her head in defeat.]

...I do not understand...I was able to draw it before. What made it so different back then...?

...It took me months to learn how to make calls. Hopefully, I will be able to make use of these features within the foreseeable future.
[There is no sarcasm in that. She's dead serious.]

Um...I should probably mention that I am not human...
Children possessing these. This...is something I did not know.

But I shouldn't really be shocked after what happened yesterday.

[Flashback to Walt after her own announcement to the UG.]
Also, you are the one who helped us fight the monster...
Thank you.

And, yeah, after that you get a bit more accepting of things outside the norm. I've got enough to think about as it is.

...I was...much less graceful in my first battle...

I was concerned for her as well. Moreover, with all the civilians involved, I was not sure if we would end up succeeding...

[And then she realizes something important that she forgot.]
Um...my name is Seta. Seta Albreich.
Re: 2/2
And, right, my name is Alexandra de Witt.

You never expected this to happen, so I am hoping that you will not feel pressured to stay...
...And...not all of our deployments ended like the one in Brussels.
no subject
And nobody has tried to pressure me into anything so far, but thanks for thinking about it. I'll figure out what to do and tell everyone when I'm ready.
