HANGAR

Lokes smile grew at Maya's reaction. Despite being barefoot, she was still taller than most of the other girls there. The girl clearly wasn't used to smiling. Loke shook her hand, "You have a beautiful smile." She said cheerfully. "What's your ARMOR?" She looked around, frowning. Did kekoa mano already arrive?

Good to be back

ARMOR Docks: Robots and Elves, Oh My.

Laura shook Ser Architecture's hand as well, abit slightly nervously. She knew all about the racial tensions between the Kersh and the Elysians, as she was well-versed in the history and culture of her people. Still, in a place like this with representatives from many other races around, it was best not to cause any incidents that would reflect poorly on the Elysians as a whole.

"Pleased to meet you as well. I am Laura Nagase. I've read about our history with your people, but you're the first Kersh I've met in person.", she said, speaking in English so she could be understood.

Dr. Rebecca also shook his hand, with a bit more confidence than her daughter.

"And I am Dr. Rebecca Nagase. I trust we can put aside our races' usual disagreements for the sake of maintaining peace here and all?", the Sciences Caste member said in a rather polite and friendly tone.

...Well, I suppose this works well enough for a theme.

Everything's in order. I think. Either way, it's all still there... Ren quietly mused.

The medical bag shimmered slightly as if it were made of some sleek metallic alloy before gently closing it, clicking together.

For him, the journey was simply going from one place to another...it felt like something he'd been doing for a long time, even if Ren couldn't put his finger on why was something he'd gotten used to. Simply shrugging it off for now as him going where people needed him the most, it was staying put in one place for who knows how long which made the young doctor lost track of time as he tried to piece together what his jumbled thoughts were supposed to be.

And by the time he'd snapped out of recalling some of the events that had led up to this moment, everyone onboard were informed they'd arrived at the Academy and already beginning to disembark. There wasn't any real rush. His...suit...partner likely hadn't arrived yet. ...Or had beaten him here. Either way, 'he' would just have to be patient as Ren quietly followed most of his peers and idly adjusting the medical headset so it rested against his neck and collar of a slightly tattered white coat.

...Certainly an interesting bunch.

Hope you weren't expecting anything witty here. Maybe some day.

"A pleasure, Ms. Nagase." Ser Masterful said with a curt nod to both of the Nagases. "I assure you I will be on my best behavior, and any antagonism would be more out of concern than any aggression, coming from a culture born from a possible future of your own. There is still a great deal of discourse among the Kersh about whether or not we are implicitly and hypocritically endorsing any societies we contact that have non-zero social stratification, and I worry for my own involvement as well as that of my people's full military should your own tensions turn to a true civil war."

Architecture would breathe a sigh of relief if they had lungs. It was now certain that the Elysians knew exactly where they stood, and would now have that proverbial Sword of Damocles over their head until they took steps to resolve that issue.

Cheshire finishing load her mecha

Cheshire head perked up as she felt the two Elysian pyschic powers. Well felt was kinda strong word for it, but anyway it draw her closer to the gathering of the other students.

They can't for the life of them understand why nobody liked being ruled by a group of manic depressive demigods - 4chan

Docks

As Elaine wandered about she took in the ARMOR facility in awe. While she had grown up on a ring world, most of the environment had been Earth-standard. This was like someone had taken the sports arena, the local school and the city government building, doubled them in size and slapped them on a rocket and shot it all into space.

So caught up was the blue haired girl that she accidentally bumped into someone else. Elaine quickly turned around to see she had knocked into a short girl with ...wolf ears?

Shaking off her surprise Elaine reached out to the other girl. "Hey, are you okay? I'm sorry. I didn't mean to bump into you, I just got a bit overwhelmed by this whole place."

-dramatic music ensues-

ARMOR Docks

Kaylid suddenly blinked in realization that his curiosity had been spotted, turning around but still leaning against the terminal and still on his tip-toes which while his legs were visually a little shaky doing so he was hoped that nobody wouldn't notice. The rather small boy, dwarfed by the person approaching was of course dressed in his standard baggy t-shirt with undershirt which, despite the attempt didn't help much to hide how scrawny he actually is, made worse by him looking younger than he truly is.

Crud. Come on, just play it cool. You have just as much right to be here as anyone. His final thought before responding, rubbing a nervous hand behind his neck. "Oh yeah, all good!" He responded in a brief moment of anxiousness before peering around for a moment before realizing he should probably try to keep the conversation going. "You a new student as well huh, nice drone!" He continued with a nervously jumpy tone but friendly look, eyeing the drone repeatedly with the same curious tinker of a look.

"After time adrift among open stars, along tides of light and through shoals of dust, I will return to where I began."

Docks

Zae was rather distracted herself, absorbed in analyzing the architecture and mechanics around her on her tablet when she was bumped into, causing her to tumble forward a bit but was thankfully able to steady herself by grabbing onto the arm of the girl who had bumped into her and she caught her footing in a nice feat of reflex. She stood up casually and made a motion of dusting herself off before putting away her tablet.

She then turned around with a cocky half smile on her face. An expression less attributed to this specific situation, and rather a favored expression of hers in general. She gave a nod of her head to say it was okay, then held out her hand in greeting.

ARMOR, Docks

Sylvester had come back to the docks, looking around, quietly watching the others students and their Mechs.

"One may feel fear in the face of danger so long as one banishes fear when danger actually arrives"

Docks

Elaine grinned back at the wolf girl, who seemed to have not taken offense, and happily shook her hand. "Nice to meet you, I'm Elaine, from Empyrean. Just getting started here. What about you?"

-dramatic music ensues-

Docks

Zae smiled a bit more at this as she took her hand away and started moving her hands in swift specific movements. Sign language.

'<Name is Zae. Would tell full name but takes much longer to sign. Nice to meet you.>'

ARMOR Hanger

Thank you, mister. The man started to move toward the restroom, with a noticeable waddle in his step.

The measure of a man is not his courage, but rather the size of his gun.

"I confirm that assumption." The drone orbited around Kaylid, only taking the one photograph of his face (the flash is still on; it wouldn't want to sour relations too much). While orbiting, it occasionally chirps or beeps. But it can't calm its curiosity forever. "Request. Please state your preferred role in full mech-assisted battlefield scenarios." It keeps orbiting, its camera focusing and refocusing constantly on different parts of his body, judging silently as cameras always do.

D'Angelo laughed. "Hannibal calm down, you're gonna scare the poor thing." He gave the kid another once over. Poor thing was floundering, but they were making an effort to be friendly. Of course, the drone flashing them probably wasn't going to help. "Name's D'Angelo, this here's Hannibal. We're both gonna be starting here, so might be fun to hang out a bit."

Elaine stared blankly and shrugged. "I'm sorry, I don't know sign. I've never had a need to learn it so.." She shrugged again. "Sorry about that. Do you have like...I'm sure someone has made portable text to speech by now, right?"

-dramatic music ensues-

Zae lifted a finger in a form of wait gesture, then let the finger droop, her expression one of slight disappointment. She held up the wait gesture again, and pulled out her tablet, unlocking it, and typing on it, finally pressing a button. "Sorry bout that. Didn't really think about the fact that not everyone would know sign. I am Zayanilthia Etraeano Nestuyin. Though I'm sure we'd all prefer I go by Zae. Nice to meet you. Holy crap I'm surprised I haen't made a typo- fuck."

Armor Docks

"Ah, you know about the slight unrest among our people, it seems. I would certainly hope the Kersh will have no need for intervening though. For now, I'm simply more focused on excelling here and showing how capable I am in my Delphim.", Laura replied, with the tiniest bit of passive-aggressiveness to her.

"I am still keeping in contact with Meridian though. After all, one of my duties here is to record and send back combat recordings of both of the Delphim here in action. I'll know if anything happens back home for us.", Dr. Nagase said.

"Never let anyone tell you that something is impossible." - Monty Oum, 1981-2015

ARMOR Docks

Maya was a bit taken aback by the compliment of her smile. After all, she knew that it wasn't exactly even remotely natural. She fidgeted a bit, moving the straps on her backpack a bit as her mecha were mentioned. She speaks once more in that decidedly neutral, somewhat restrained tone as before.

"My...mecha? I've got two. The Blauerknecht and the Roterschutze. They're..."

She looked back to the heavy loading bay. Much to her dismay, the two mecha had already been sent to their hangars.

"Oh. They're gone already. Sorry."

Elaine nodded, maintaining her grin. "Nice to meet you too. It's good to meet someone so polite for my first encounter. I mean, I know the rest of the people from my planet obviously, all of us are from the military but all of them are a bit...stiff? I guess. So it's nice to meet someone who isn't lecturing me about how I'm dressing."

-dramatic music ensues-

ARMOR Docks

The boy immediately tried to shield his eyes as the flash went off. "Gah, what the-" He lets out as he tries to shake his head and look around now only seeing blotches from he flash.

At hearing Hannibal's request he takes a moment while rubbing his eyes. "I-m trained as an engineer but I'm here to pilot. I've got a custom Mecha, close-range speed-type was my Uncles." He replies a little in daze still at the flash and a little nervous still but wanting a good impression.

Though as he notices that he actually being observed in detail by the camera he seems to blush up a little, lowing off his tiptoes slowly and pulling his right arm in over his chest a little nervously.

Wait.. the drone is a pilot as well...? Why is it taking pictures of me like this...? He questioned in his head, confused but not picking up on the silent judging on the drone.

At hearing D'Angelo's introductions the boy look up at him with a much brighter smile and nod despite being clearly still embarrassed by the camera. "Oh- Yeah its good to meet you guys as well, I'm Kaylid."

Hangar

The taller girl shrugged. She had a dancers' build that contrasted her height and t-shirt, which had a scene of hideous, gory violence on it. She quietly scratched the back of ger leg with her foot. "pity. I was hoping to see kekoa. Do you know where the hanger is?" She turned asking Maya.

After the girl had refused to speak during the shuttle ride, Loke had taken an interest in her

Good to be back

Docks

Growing more and more uneasy as more and more exotic people began emerging around him, Danny decided to distance himself a bit as he took some time to get accustomed to living side by side with a plethora of Aliens. Spotting a lone human standing off by himself in Sylvester, Danny wandered over to the older man's side and asked "Which one's yours?" while gesturing to the plethora of mechs nearby.

ARMOR, Docks

Sylvester noticed someone else arrive, instinctively saluting before remembering he was in an academy now. He pointed at the nearby Stark Jegan, easily noticeable by the 4 fiant missiles on his shoulders "My customized Stark Jegan... its maybe only a mass production Mech... but I don't complain. Assault model, anti capital ship combat."

"One may feel fear in the face of danger so long as one banishes fear when danger actually arrives"

ARMOR Docks

The drone chirped and spontaneously stopped moving, its eye focused on Kaylid's face. "Battlefield role confirmed. Your co-operation is appreciated." It moves back to observe the both of them, not taking obnoxious pictures this time (but still nearly crashing into anybody behind it).

Zae was smiling rather happily at the conversation she was having with Elaine, and continued to type away on her tablet. <"Yeah i hear that. Screw dress codes. Came from a laid back place myself. Nice place my hoe planet.">

She paused for a moment, registering what she had just heard from her tablet, and swiftly went to type something else out.

<"I mean home. Bit prone to typos. Makes for interesting conversations when I have to use my tablet.">
