Venessa yawned once she was addressed, she had snuck in a nap while they were watching. Sometimes these things could be quite boring to watch, there was much more fun while in combat. Once the briefing ended, she walked to her GEAR. Stopping right in front of it and looking up at it "[b]Oi don't tink Silver expected ter bake yer.[/b]" She said to the machine, as if it could respond. Then climbed up into the cockpit and sealed herself it. She put the headgear on and started it up, the machine slowly coming alive, and the sounds of parts tightening. She looked across her weapon systems, depressed at what she saw. She didn't mind that her guns were weakened, it was the system they put in place of her pile-bunker. It was a tagging system, in every meaning of the word tag, she had to make physical contact with the device on the enemy, and the target GEAR's systems would apply the proper 'virtual' damage. It was more depressing that if she miscalculated the strike, she'd be doing some damage that would be quite realistic. After the start-up, she joined the other officer. And once she opened comms, Venessa spoke to Winter "[b]What's the plan?[/b]" She asked, keeping it simple and to the point. She looked to Winter's GEAR. Venessa took note of the rather unique duo that they were. Then turned her attention back to the front, making up her own plan of attack, they weren't really grouped together, and since Silver no doubt knew what her GEAR could do, he would make sure they were spaced, to reduce casualties.
