[b]Nono, Council Tower, Yggdrasil[/b] Nono followed along happily as they all departed the elevator and headed for the council room. She trusted that this was important, and was more than ready to see what was up as she walked with the group into the chamber so they could begin the meeting. She took up a position besides Saber as she came to a stop, looking over those council members here with a smile. It was impossible to intimidate the robot, especially based on power or strength, and yet she still respected what these people had done in their time, to earn their positions here. Really she might have qualified for the council herself, but she had no desire to be on it, when she could be out protecting humanity. "Hello Queen Isabella," the gynoid replied with a wave and a salute after the vampire had introduced herself. Or maybe she would prefer Queen Nox? Nono didn't want to offend her. It was sadly a deficiency of her programming, requiring her to invent how to treat things that weren't human or space monster. Someone like Onee-sama made it easy, but vampires were a bit more difficult. But if she needed help then that made things easier for her. She glanced over at Saber as she spoke, giving a light chuckle in turn. Saber could be very literal sometimes. "Sorry," she said as she bounced on her feet. "Onee-sama is always serious when she's on the job." It was one of the things that Nono admired about her, a holdover from her time with the Fraternity. She looked over then as two other agents arrived, quickly adjusting given the fact that the summons would have obviously gone to more than the three of them. "Oh, hello Ms. Takamachi, Geo," she added happily as they approached, before looking back to the Queen requesting their assistance in...some matter. "Well, I'd be more than glad to help out with whatever it is." She would make no promises on things getting broken, but that was just part of the territory when it came to this sort of thing. That said, she fixed her attention to see what the Queen would say. [hr] [b]Misaka 10,032, Client World Macross[/b] Misaka glanced back to find Marisa and Kakine rapidly joining her, the former having managed to figure out how to activate the flight systems on her armor, while the latter was moving along on wings of dark matter. She altered her own flight path to allow the other two to catch up, falling into formation as she tested out the capabilities of the suit she now wore while they were in the air. It was definitely not bad, in comparison to what Academy City had. She looked over at Kakine as he asked about how they were doing, and whether the portal had finished with it's maintenance yet. She didn't respond immediately, instead activating the multiversal connections necessary to inquire that of the Misaka Network. There was a slight delay due to the distances involved between them all, the multiversal barrier and other things, but she soon had the answer that she needed. "Yes," she replied with a nod of her helmet. "'The portal is finished, and is awaiting a marker beacon for connection,' Misaka says as she enjoys the feel of wind rushing past." She was enjoying it, but she knew that they couldn't delay. It would be better to make their escape while they still could, since it looked like there was activity from where they had came, which did not bode well for their theft. Of course, there was also the problem of Marisa coming with them, which might not be appreciated back home, but she trusted Kakine to handle it. For now, she was preparing to deploy the beacon that would tell the scientists back home where to target the portal.
