Zane would never admit it but he was somewhat grateful for the girl's luckily brief breakdown, if it hadn't happened he would have gone straight to Goliath Buster without interacting with any of the other pilots. This way he had at least some interaction with some of them without being the center of attention and he hoped it would make it easier to talk to the older men and Rosnian as well the girl herself later.

Still when the girl seemed to be calming down Zane moved back a little as he didn't feel ready to talk to anyone at the moment. He really wasn't up to talking with anyone he didn't know at the moment if he didn't have too and the moment Lieutenant Kanamek dismissed them he grabbed and headed straight to the Framewerk hangar. Once inside the cockpit of Goliath Buster he finally relaxed a little, his shoulders dropping and jaw unclenching. [color=ec008c][i]"I can do this. It's just 7 people, 8 counting the luitenant. That is not too much and at least three seem nice while one should understand reacting poorly due to stress. I can do this.[/i][/color] 

After about 20 minutes Zane finally made his way to the pilot's quarters hoping his absence wasn't noticed and just put his bags away, planning to unpack later. Instead he grabbed his tablet and read up on the VR system they would be dealing with for a bit. While he hadn't learned nearly as much as he had hoped Zane absolutely didn't want to be late for the first "mission". That would simply be asking for the wrong kind of attention, so after less than thirty minutes he went to the locker room and got changed.

When he arrived at the virtual training room he went straight for his pod, not worried about the electro-chemical compound that filled it after he had entered. He was a bit surprised that Elora was the first to speak up after the Luitenant but she sounded a lot calmer than earlier and knowing about that map was useful info. [color=ec008c]"Good to know."[/color] He was about to switch to the other channel when he wondered if he should say more. [color=ec008c]"Ehm my Framewerk has repair droids...so if you take damage...le let me know.[/color] 

Hoping that was enough Zane switched to the Command Channel and not knowing what else to say just repeated Elora [color=ec008c]"Ready for deployment."[/color] His finger hovered over the button to put his Marker Light into Marker mode figuring he would be more helpful giving his teammate an advantage from the start than if he just shot some other weapon blindly.
