Can we all take a moment to admire the fact that 2801 technology still supports emoji functionality? 🤩 👍 🕷 💁 🩰 💫 🍆 🧊 💅 👁‍🗨 🎯 🤡 🔋 🐈 💲 🧙‍♀️ 🐦💋 🐜 👽 🕶 ⚡ 🕵🏻‍♀️ 💦 💦 💦

It seems like they're pretty set on calling us 'Hatchlings', so... hello, fellow Hatchlings, I'd like to play a game.

Two truths and a lie. I'll start.

  ① Starbucks makes the best lattes.
  ② I've never watched All Dogs Go To Heaven all the way through.
  ③ My birthdate is May 21st. What year? Every year. 😉😉😉 But my party in 2018 was 🔥🔥🔥.

It can't be helped! It's the same with me and my mobile suit ... most people go for the Gundam first.

You're correct on that though. BD is very cute. Tell him I said so.

I don't know. His ego is big enough as it is.

[ The joke isn't that BD-1 has a big ego, it's that Cal wouldn't tell him that he's the cutest, bravest, fiercest droid in the galaxy. His soft spot for the droid is parsecs wide. ]

I've been meaning to ask you about your Gundam, actually. Hopefully you don't think I'm going for it first.

Gaslighting and gatekeeping. You're the worst.

Go ahead and ask away. It's there to be admired, after all.

What do you use it for? The ride to the ship was nice, but I can't imagine that's all it does.

It's a custom assault type. So its primary use is for fighting in space, essentially. It doesn't do too badly on the ground, but there are better mobile suits suited for ground attacks.

It also didn't arrive with all of its armaments here, though that's probably for the best - I imagine most of the citizens here won't take too kindly about the fact that I've got this ridiculous weapon.

[ So you're telling him it's a human-shaped starfighter. ]

No kidding.

What kind of armaments does it usually have?

[ unfortunately, and just as gay ]

Nothing out of the ordinary. I didn't come with its rifle or its handguns. Which is fine, because resources are finite. It at least arrived with its sabre, and that's more than enough to cause damage with anything.
