Alrighty, I have updated my collab that was delayed because of time-zones with Ark.

Have a look

A shorter post, but one that can hopefully continue to hold Lora up for a while.

Ick. Two others talked to Lorenzo. Was waiting for a response before that co op post came afterwards.

@Penultimate_Pi
It does, and very well at that. 7-8 paragraphs is not short in any measure of the word.

@DarkRecon
Not to worry, Lorenzo will respond in my next post.

Speaking of which, I'm just giving @knighthawk a bit more time to reply in the thread, in case anyone was wondering.

Sorry guys, I hit a wall these last few days. Im not dropping out, I've just been having some RL problems

New post, and it's a new event!

@knighthawk
That's fine, we all get our share of troubles some days.

Ohhh.

So Lora saw a Cruxi Leader trying to talk to her. Interesting. He was probably saying something like, "ayy lmao baby, want some fuck?"

Edit: FUCK I JUST GOT A THEORY ON HOW THE STORY IS GOING TO GO.

THE ALIENS ARE ATTACKING BECAUSE THEY'RE GRAYS, AND WITH HUMANITY'S 'ayy lmao' MEME THEY'RE THE LAUGHING STOCK OF THE ENTIRE GALAXY!

fucking genius aren't I? I know your tricks, Ariamis!

Edit 2: Or maybe it's like this.

This, brang a rather hilarious tear to my eye @LHG100.
Wai you make me laugh!

I'm back from my short holiday. A post should be coming up soon.

A small post is up...

New post with answers.

Well, I sorta sketched out a possible composition of the two units Sigma Squad will be splitting into, trying to balance out range, firepower, and roles as best I could think of at the time. It was a bit tricky, considering the different Framewerks and our unbalanced number of squad members. I don't know if this should just be private messaging with @redbaron1234 or what, but I might as well post it here for others' opinions:

Team A:
Krista & Archer @redbaron1234
Alyssa & Delta Silver @ArkmageddonCat
Harold & Roxy Kai @LHG100
Lora & Caliburn @Penultimate_Pi

Team B:
Yeshua & Anzu @Cassowarysaur
Elora & Diver @Ariamis
Orion & Zeus @Pox
Mai & Setsuka @DarkRecon
Romeo & Rose @knighthawk

*Horrified Screams*

@Penultimate_Pi I don't mind talking about this stuff in the open. Though didn't we have ten Pilots/Frames? Edit: Nope, I counted them all. We have nine.

I would switch Mai and Lora out. That way there is at least one officer with each team with eyes on the situation.

Sounds fine to me.

I agree with redbaron, both units require an officer. But instead of Mai I prefer switching Lora with Orion.

Ohhh.

So Lora saw a Cruxi Leader trying to talk to her. Interesting. He was probably saying something like, "ayy lmao baby, want some fuck?"

Uh no. That was my character Mai -_____-' *sweatdrop*

And really, depending on which team she's on, Mai can be either a help or perhaps a hinderance. As far as I know, 74% sync on Mai's part is the lowest out of all the pilots. The only thing she has going for her is that she's...well a "trained killer" of sorts from the previous framework division she comes from so mentally, she's the least likely to brain freeze when the bullets start flying. Plus, I'd imagine she's better trained with the Starfist but again, her low sync will keep her from moving at the speed she wants. Then of course, there's the unknown factor with her "seeing future events" thing.

In regards to her relations to the other pilots over that two month period, I think the only problem she'd have will be with Yeshua as Ariamis put it. Someone who's always THAT happy would make even Mai feel arkward. Everyone else, I think she'd either trained or studied with when they requested to do so. Just that Mai isn't a talkative type. Though I think they could be "moments" that Mai could have with the pilots that showed that, due to her speaking her mind to Lorenzo and Ritsu, that she's still human deep down despite her training making her like a "robot".

I thought of one instance that perhaps Elora, upset with the situations she thinks she caused, approaches Mai at one point and asks her to train her on how to be like her. Mai, of all things, would refuse, stating "that life style would mentally drive you to death" and "stop crying. At least your still human. I'm not." I don't know about these exact lines but I thought this moment could have happened.

Definitely. Elora thinks of Mai as a very professional if distant pilot, and would have asked for her advice at some point, thinking that she knows how to suppress emotions like fear and sadness.

Ohh, whoops, getting confused by all the names running around. lol, sorry yo.

@Ariamis I think I see what you mean. Squad A is going to have issues with crowd control, and Zeus seems like a better crowd controller.
