[quote=@Letter Bee]Then he turned towards Callie, Henri, and Nil, glancing at them long enough to let them know one ear of his' was paying attention to their conversation, and walked towards the three before adding, "You know, Henri, I've done my own digging, and I must say, a Noble Arm that is oriented towards negating other Noble Arms? If this were the 'old days', the Disablers - My old group - would be considering you as a grudging ally."

His eyes then glinted as he continued, "I made mistakes in their service. Remember what motivated those mistakes, no, atrocities. No one is immune from the urge to participate in the cycle of oppression and revenge - I say this not out of scorn, but out of concern."[/quote]

Henri thought about Myron's words. The Disablers, an anti-Arms Master extremist Group using guerilla tactics against their enemies. 

[color=00aeef]"You know"[/color] he finally said, [color=00aeef]"I'd want to say I am not like that. But to be honest, I cannot say for sure."[/color]

Henri looked at his arm. He didn't activate Leonidas, but nonetheless brushed his fingers through the air, like the shield's ghost was there. 

[color=00aeef]"Noble Arm symbolizes the Arms Master's character and desires. I'm not sure an anti-NA can exist without a certain level of antipathy towards other Arms or their Masters. I mean, I don't exactly hate Arms Masters, but I've always had reservation towards them. Might be why Leonidas is a shield, rather than a sword or bow"[/color]

Henri couldn't help but sigh. [color=00aeef]"Rich coming from me, I know. Still, sometimes I wonder if Noble Arms wouldn't trust each other either, if they could think. Whatever the case, I'll keep my eyes open, in front of the mirror, or otherwise."[/color]

That was a good question, was there a reason to come to this table specifically? [i]Unsure.[/i]
There was something about the familiar faces? Or what Callie asked before? [i]No[/i], she wouldn’t have dodged if she wanted to get spilled with soda.

Taking a step back, [i]what brings her here?[/i] The answer was rather simple.
[color=8F00FF]”Food.”[/color] Nil answered rather bluntly and proceeded to stare at the other two Arms Masters on their chair, and Myron too once he walked in.

She had no idea what this talk about [i]Disbablers[/i] was all about.[/quote]

Henri chuckled a bit, [color=00aeef]"Yeah, good point. Cafeteria is a cafeteria, in the end."[/color]

Henri returned from his thoughts, still chuckling. Those were some nice times back in Manila, but it was time to return to the here and now. He listened intently, as the Admiral told of the plans.

It was a good strategy, a well-thought one. Of course, nothing was ever fool-proof, with men being what they were. But that didn't mean Henri was demoralized. Far from it. He had gotten out of nasty situations before, and this was no different.

Time to talk operations.

[quote=@Digmata]"If I use my Mirage Space, I could carry everyone in this room and some more. My Noble Arm is limited by time, volume and indiscrimination, not body count." she answered to Callie as she keeps an ear to the planning of the operation.

"But if we use that, we would need to move quickly. I cannot hold the Mirage Space and stay outside for long, it's like keeping a bottle of water raised. Easy at first, then it gets tiring the longer it took."

[color=00aeef]"Worth a try, at least"[/color] Henri added to the conversation, [color=00aeef]"Bernardino gives me and a chosen number of regular soldiers a lift and Lidmann opens a portal. Once on [i]Guangdong[/i] we are released and I activate Leonidas. Then comes the hard part. Once Fighting in Shade is active, there's 30 second period to neutralize Cao Bao and secure our position on the deck."[/color]

Henri considered the next move. [color=00aeef]"Of course, that is only the first part. Assuming the decapitation succeeds, what next? Do we evacuate back to [i]Jose Rizal[/i], or try and seize [i]Guangdong[/i]?"[/color]
