Peaceless

Kiril looked fascinated. "Hmm, yes, I suppose." he said, with the facial expression of one who wasn't really listening. Bill's point of view made him think of many plans at once, and it took him effort to keep them from spewing out of his mouth.

"One last question, seeing as most already left, about you - Are you the kind of leader who makes a plan before the battle and lets it develop, or the kind who shouts orders in the midst of combat?"

Gurevich had a feeling the answer would actually be a choice Bill will make, but he hoped he was wrong.

For fear of clogging the IC, would it be too much to ask if the GM and Peaceless collabed that debrief? EDIT: And Sara too, I guess, considering she's there as well.

@Ammokkx

Depends on what's more dangerous - someone hanging up that collab, or clogging the IC. I am undecided.

Kiril grinned at the two. "No, I mean our tactics. It is unhealthy to postpone a debrief, since the emotional aftereffects are a very important part. Despite Sun Tzu's claim that knowing yourself is not enough, it is the basis for everything."

He steepled his fingers. "So how did we do, captain? Without knowing eachother and without planning, against an unexpectedly difficult enemy?"

Kiril took another sip. He allowed the black liquid's acidic bitterness to overwhelm him for a few moments, living in a charcoal cave with no way out, his very existence a pinpoint of focus. He then accidentally reached the muddy grind and, the grace of the moment ruined, inconspicuously spit it back into the cup. "Alright," he said gravely, "Then if you don't mind, any and all modifications and repairs will be done by Ogre's owners. This includes tinkering too, unfortunately." He nodded at Sara.

He looked at the others, his spirits somewhat raised by this bureaucratic solution, and was quickly disappointed by the dwindling number of group members who actually wanted to get any work done today. Even Bill seemed in a hurry somehow, maybe due to fatigue. Hah, considering the fact his Gear had done all the work for him...

"I've got time." He said anyway, wondering how far he can push Atlas. "Let's talk tactics."

Still not seeing how he has to actually enjoy the whole deal.

@Ammokkx it's not weird at all. First, he is new to the whole thing. Second, he's not in it for the sports. Third, even if he were, it doesn't mean he has to like sponsors. Besides, the deal he's in is pretty bad - his Gear is loaned under a strict contract. So anything that can complicate this automatically annoys him.

@vancexentan get well soon man!

Kiril's face soured at the talk of sponsors. His Gear was granted to him as part of a research program, and thus a tight rein was kept on his choice of actions, modifications, and general schedule. And now they are about to be tied down by another corporation, no doubt none less annoying.

"Does this sponsorship contract include full access to our Gear?" He said, his voice already annoyed at the thought. He took a thoughtful sip of an extra-strong coffee he ordered. "I cannot allow that. The Ogre will not be tinkered with by foreigners."

Wait, are we not going to the cantina for some festive drinking and shooting?

Ace Academy - Ready!? Set!? Rumble! - High Casual

I don't plan ahead as a policy. Apologies.

Ace Academy - Ready!? Set!? Rumble! - High Casual

Added in some confrontation with one of Bill's old teammates you can call him out if you want to not sure it will end all too well though.

@vancexentan

I roll initiative.
