She got an idea! An Awesome Idea! A Radical, Awesome Idea...!
[1]
A few weeks before Christmas, as snow drifted and fell, as families went shopping and store Santas rang bells, the Unity Group was in a pinch and poke, for they'd little money for Christmas: in fact they were broke! A greedy teenage miser had stolen their cash, to get a new super robot after his old one's crash! Twas few funds for wreaths, for trees, or mistletoe: towards mecha repairs it all had to go!
In light of this, the stalwart tech Dido Sybil slipped on her parka, and packed her wrenches and drill.
She drove to a junkyard by an SDF base, filled with rusty machine parts from the army and aerospace. With a clatter and clang, she dug out one pile of rusty limbs and jet engines, seeking something worthwhile.
Perhaps you followed her, or were already there: would you like to say Hi, or continue to stare?
[2]
[Locked to Ken.]
A week before Christmas, when duties were light, with no Kaiju to slaughter or alien empires to fight, Brave Ken Torao, teenage Ninja supreme, stepped in ScarleTiger's cockpit, to train for his team.
But it's a horrible sight he's happened upon! His cockpit's motion capture harness is gone! Removed from it's wall mounts, nowhere to be seen, what criminal could have done a deed so obscene?
The thief can't have gone far, or escaped from the base: how will this teen ninja decide to give chase?
[3]
[Shortly later, open to everyone]
A quick search soon reveals the culprit most cruel...
...the thief of the mo-cap was Dido Sybil!
She stands by a table stocked with needle and thread, and spindles of yarn dyed in white, green and red. Ken Torao's control harness is strapped to her hands as she knits festive scarves for any who demands!
Behind in the hanger, hooked to the harness she'd climbed in, the robot ShelLancer mimics each single motion! With a heat rod spike needle, it knits and ties with care, using parachute cloth to make scarves mechas can wear!
Dido notices you starring, and nods with a wink, then stifles a yawn, rolls her neck and then speaks: "Want free scarves for your necks and for your machine too? Oh, and what's your religion…? Screw it, Merry Christmas to you!"

I want one! I want one! Can I get it in blue? Please? Pretty please? I'll try to buy you something nice!
Re: 3)
She set to work knitting, needles twirling and clicking. Above, ShelLancer mimics her from end to beginning!
"Did you have a gift in mind?" Dido asks. "Or do you need a hint? I do like dark chocolate, or stuff mixed with mint..."

[Leos goes into a thinkers pose, watching Dido and the ShelLancer work before snapping his fingers.]
I got it!
[He looks like he's had a brilliant idea. This may or may not require some prodding because it may not end well.]

She arches her eyebrow and skeptically speaks: "Why do I get the feeling your idea's...unique?"
no subject
What was it called...What was it called...Blazing Firemen Monthly? ... Or was it Great Woods Outdoorsmen? Gah.. they were talking about something like one of those two...
[...Oh dear. Dido, you probably know what both of those entail don't you.]

[Leos squirmed on the spot before pulling out one of the mailing list cards.]
I hope you're really pleased with the find...
[It seemed that Leos finally caught up with the rhyming and unconsciously got into it himself. Dido would probably be unconcerned because right there on the card was the image of a paragon of masculinity, bare chested and sweaty and leaning against a truck.]

"Hmmph!" She says nonchalantly, averting her gaze. "I guess I wouldn't mind those subscriptions...they're for how many days?"
Then suddenly Dido's needles click against empty air! At last both scarves are complete and ready to wear.
"Say, Leos!" Dido says. "Both of them are finally done! Wanna put the big one on your mech and take snapshots for fun?"
