I'll have to try and ask the pilot about it."[/color] The German mused out loud, nodding his head in assent. Watching the machine's fluid motions was fascinating, seeing a Warrior move with a precision and grace sorely lacking in the motions of most Walkers. It didn't speak, necessarily, to a better machine; just a skilled pilot. That was something technology could only compensate for so far. [color=00aeef]"Maybe a sim battle, sometime. I'm quite curious." "That's excellent,"[/color] Ben added to Hassan, with a bit of a sheepish grin. He'd gotten caught up in his own thoughts and almost forgotten he was talking [i]to[/i] people. [color=00aeef]"I'd offer to help, but if he's good to go there's no need. I've spent most of the morning tracking down a power issue on my [i]Vernichten[/i], anyway. You get custom wiring, you get custom faults. Boat loads of fun."[/color] [center][h2]Inoue Ayane[/h2] [@Norik] [@Silvan Haven] [@Caasicam][/center] "No, not generally." Ayane admitted, glancing back at the railing with a note akin to sheepishness creeping into her voice. "I didn't want to try and navigate the party to get here. A little excessive, perhaps. These are just the essentials, Ms. Marcus. Most of my belongings are being shipped, along with my Walker. This bag merely contains the things I don't trust shipping services with." "Thank you for the welcome, Ms. Harken." The newcomer's rude arrival did not receive a similar greeting, instead met with a faint frown curling the corners of the Japanese pilot's mouth downwards. Such interruption would have been rude anywhere, but where she was from such a thing was especially intolerable. So after a moment's consideration, she elected not to acknowledge it. She gave the other pilots a polite nod, and tilted her head slightly. "I don't suppose any of you would be acquainted with a Ms. White, would you?"
