Cristina Bernardino




Cristina though about the offer before her, having more power always helps especially when you are in a war.

She briefly recalled her brief encounter with Hou Ren, she already knew there is no way for her to win against a Zodiac but even with the man just fooling around while she try to use every trick in her book and hold on, she still nearly died. And her sister could probably something more than that considering on what she is.

That's why she needs to take the deal, if she wants to stand a chance of facing her.

Although taking Huo Ren's power to herself felt wrong, felt the wrong course of action to take.

But what is?

She wasn't sure if it would work but it was better than nothing.

"What about something that stops Noble Arms from activating? I'm pretty sure such a useful ability would exist in your collection of powersets?"

“I’ve had more than enough time in, so called, perv dungeons.” Charles said. He considered which mission to take. Infiltration was definitely more up his alley, skills wise. It just wasn’t what he wanted to do. Besides, it felt like the roster for the rescue was filling up. “I wanted an excuse to refresh my combat diver training. What better excuse than putting C4 on the outer hull of the enemy ships.” He considered the possible counter measures they would face and the logistical difficulties of a long swim. “Or, I have been itching for HALO drop. Straight onto the deck.”

He paused. His mind running thousand miles a second. He always got excited when presented with a military problem. Reminded him of the old days. “I’ll sign on for the fleet. Will need more information to put together a proper plan.”

Nil


La Trinidad de Manila Academy - 12/1/2022, 5:20, UTC+8

Nil had tried to listen and she technically did, but understanding what was being said? That was a different story altogether, at least he said Qingshe was alive, maybe? Then stuff about Noble Arms, and more words and more.

It didn’t take long for Nil to get annoyed at the long discussion, especially since wasn’t taking in anything from all those words being tossed at her. Softly but surely she shifted to the back of the group, they would probably have an official briefing on the next misison anyway, even if short.

At least here in the back they were having fun, Gree was chuckling from what that Myke and Tonka had said… Normandy? Perv dungeon? She didn’t know what those meant, so Nil turned to Mikey who mentioned those.

”Uh, Myke? What is a Perv and Norm?”

WO "Mikey" Rangel



"might be in poor taste to call it the perv dungeon in a room of people who just lost their CO to said location, but I definitely would prefer that view over the ocean"

Goosebumps went straight up Mikey's back and her blood ran cold. First, from simple surprise. She hadn't registered the presence of the... well, the quite striking woman standing behind her. Then, from embarrassment. She certainly hadn't expected to be overheard, and a part of her now realized that her choice of words probably was in poor taste. Way to stick your fuckin' foot in it, Mikey.

She shook her head hard a couple times, physically forcing the wide-eyed reaction off before more than a couple of seconds had passed, and gave the woman a smile. This one was... another volunteer. Mikey thought she remembered her dossier saying she was from Russia, but that might have just been her own assumption based on the accent. Her name was... Tonka, right? Like the toys.

"Uh, yeah, sorry." she whispered back, doing her best contrite face. "Didn't mean to make light of the whole thing. Just, uh... yeah, sorry."

At least Archer didn't seem put off by her faux pas, judging by his laugh. That was a comfort; of all the other people in the room, he seemed the most normal, and Mikey thought she could use a bit of normalcy at the moment.

"Honestly, I’m not sure where I fit into all of this. I suppose I’ll just let them decide where I’m best suited. I can’t exactly pinpoint where my... talents would be most useful,"

There was something in those words, in the other soldier's demeanor, that twinged Mikey's spidey senses. Mikey felt nervous as hell, herself; maybe that's all there was to it with the big Englishman, too, but she had to admit she didn't know him well enough to say for sure. Instead, she filed the judgment away; if she were really curious, she could always ask him about it when they weren't, say, in the middle of a briefing, surrounded by other people.

"What about you?"

Mikey shrugged. "You know, it really hadn't occurred to me that we'd actually have a choice. In my experience the military isn't big on--" She was suddenly aware of another person standing next to her, looking at her with bright blue eyes and an inquisitive expression. Mikey thought that this white-haired woman might also have been older than her, but there was something disarmingly childlike about her question and her broken English.

”Uh, Myke? What is a Perv and Norm?”

Mikey opened her mouth. Closed it. Almost said, "I'll tell you when you're older," then thought better of it. Looked to Archer and Tonka, her face a silent appeal for help.

Several feet away, closer to the front of the room, she heard Charles speak up.

“I’ve had more than enough time in, so called, perv dungeons.”

Oh, come on! Frenchie too?!

Callie laughed. She couldn’t help it. The strategic situation was dire, their force had been decapitated, gutted and half-replaced, and this was where the briefing ended up?

Just like the Cadets… God.

It was exactly what was needed.

(Well, perhaps for everyone but Nil. Again – she really ought to follow up with her.)

“We can do better on insertion than helis and chutes – I’ll go over it with you and the team later,” she told Charles, a gleam in her eye, before addressing the room as a whole. “With Command’s permission, I’ll be joining the anti-naval operation in a reconnaissance and tactical mobility capacity. I’ve performed the role before under those circumstances and the open sea accentuates just about all of my capabilities, where tunnel fighting would minimise their impact.”

Oh, and nothing else, Caroline?

The gleam faded; that whisper had sounded alarmingly like him. She did her best to push it out of her mind… Even as her vision ran over the Director, even as his offer wormed its way through her thoughts.

Don’t pretend. First the portal and the sword, then the minister… What if you mess up again and someone actually dies? No, better a nice, safe delaying action… You’re terrified, girl.

A shiver down the back of her neck.

Wouldn’t be so terrified with a bit more power.

Not yours, of course. Can’t go wrong that way.

Callie screwed her eyes shut, just for a moment, smile still plastered to her face. It is more tactically sound. Besides – grow by stretching yourself, not grafting things on, she assured herself… The words sounding hollow in her mind.

Not yet.

Not yet.

Henri


La Trinidad de Manila Academy


Henri listened to the rest of the briefing carefully. The conversations didn't exactly go in a direction he would have approved of, though, especially with the talks of the perv dungeon. But he didn't let it bother him.

"If there is indeed a choice, I think I'll be at my best in the ocean" He declared. Leonidas was an area-of-effect NA, and while it didn't last for long or cover that big of an area, it would suffice for the most dangerous shots from Arms-Masters to a ship or a helicopter, should he be placed into one.

Christina's request for a power sounded dangerous for Henri. Anti-NA abilities were decently understood, but the idea of an anti-NA ability sharing a space with regular abilities could have unexpected consequences. And Sinagtala was a spacetime-NA, so complications could be... if not explosive, implosive.

"Pardon me, Director" Henri spoke, "But can an anti-NA ability exist simultaneously with a more conventional one in the same Arm?"

Henri wasn't interested in a new power at the moment, but it was good to ask for Christina's sake.
