A CrossOver FanFic by Tropers/AirshipCanon that combines ''VisualNovel/MuvLuvAlternative'' and ''VideoGame/ArmoredCore''. Set after the events of Muv Luv Alternative play into Armored Core (Actually, it's particularly after For Answer occurs (following the ORCA path))...

!!Tropes featured in this story:
* AceCustom: Actual [=NEXTs=], NSS and Company Models exist, but amongst Ranked or otherwise Notable [=NEXTs=], they're all Ace Customs.
* AcePilot: Adler, Llad, May... Just about any notable Lynx. STRAYED.
* AfterTheEnd: Multiple Apocalypses have already occurred. It's a damn miracle Humanity is still around at this point.
* AlienInvasion: Type 1, and it happens TWICE, by the same Aliens, just a few hundred years apart.
* AlternateHistory: In regards to the Armored Core 4 timeline. It's how the blending of Muv Luv and Armored Core occurs. Also Armored Core 5 happened before 4.
* AMechByAnyOtherName: [=NEXTs=], Normals, [=TSFs=]...
* AlwaysSaveTheGirl: Given the choice between protecting Selene and ANYTHING else [[spoiler: (up to, and including a colony with several million people living in it)]], Adler will choose to save Selene, and nothing will make him think otherwise.
* AmazonBrigade: The Interior Union's Lynx are notably female {{Badass}}es. Taking the cake for them though are the 'Three Valkyries'...
* AnimeHair: May Greenfield sports some. And [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair it's green!]]
* AnyoneCanDie: [[spoiler: May Greenfield is just the tip of the iceberg.]]
* ApocalypseHow: Starts as a Regional Class 4, and expands in terms of the BETA, but thanks to Kojima, there's already been a Planetary Class 1.
* ArmCannon: NEXT Redeemer is equipped with heavy machine guns for arms.
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Lynx have nearly absolute authority in military operations, simply because a NEXT is such a powerful weapon.
* AwesomeButImpractical: Any "large" weapon against the BETA. Sure it's impressive, and you're likely to get a kill, but killing one Ruitare doesn't mean much if there's 30000 more.
* AwesomeYetPractical: Against [=NEXTs=], Assault Armor is AwesomeButImpractical, against the BETA on the other hand...
* {{Badass}}: See Ace Pilot.
* BadassCreed: Ismui's Valkyries' creed, "Achieve your mission with all your might. Despair not until your last breath. Make your death count!" will be returning.
* BeamSpam: BETA's answer to flying things. Horrifyingly effective. The Interior Union uses a similar combat doctrine.
* {{BFG}}: Most Guns, which is given considering HumongousMecha. For an non-mecha gun, the [=HL1-Anti MT Rifle=], a BFF-made personnel weapon that fires .95 caliber armor-piercing explosive rounds, with virtually no recoil due to advanced technology. It can easily kill a Tank-class BETA in one shot, and has a 25 round clip.
* {{BFS}}: Hello, Blades.
* BlackAndGrayMorality: A lot of the Human characters...
* BlueAndOrangeMorality: Hello, BETA.
* [[BullfightBoss Bullfight Mooks]]: Encounters with Ruitare.
* ChekhovsGun
* ChickenWalker: Mamluk... the standard MT.
* ChildhoodFriendRomance: Heavily hinted at between Adler and Selene.
* ColdSniper: BFF's Kroitchov
* CommonTongue: Everyone speaks English. Other languages are mentioned, and some names are definitely foreign, but everyone speaks English.
* CorporateSamurai: Company Lynx. Independents are not examples.
* CrapsackWorld: Gee, let's see: It's been Invaded by Aliens, Taken over by Evil Dictators, Had large Scale wars, had a hostile Corporate Takeover on a National scale, more large scale wars, polluted by radiation, had terrorists wipe out the measures taken to escape said pollution, and gets invaded by aliens... again.
* CurbStompBattle: Played with. [=NEXTs=] have extreme kill potential against BETA... so any small-scale encounter between a NEXT and BETA will be this, but the BETA counter with sheer numbers, which averts this trope.
* DeflectorShields: Primal Armor, not that it's very effective against BETA- as it does little against point attacks or Lasers. It does slow down Ruitares so a charging Ruitare won't do much damage, and it weakens the force of a Medium's swing. It does absolutely nothing to a Tank class though...
* DeusExitMachina: Strayed is Missing in Action ever since the victory of ORCA. White Glint is presumed dead after his defeat in Line Ark.
* EyeBeams: Lux. They hurt as bad a Procyon shots, so it's best to just not get hit.
* FinaglesLaw: Continues to exist from Muv Luv Alternative.
* FrickinLaserBeams:Lots. Also, why flying in BETA areas is bad.
* FriendlySniper: Valkyrie-03, pilot of Hrist. Surprisingly bubbly and cheerful for a sniper...
* GatlingGood
* GenderIsNoObject
* GunsAkimbo
* GunPorn
* HeroicBSOD: Cristoph suffers one almost immediately after he's introduced, [[spoiler: Thanks to the death of May Greenfield]].
* HeroesPreferSwords: Well, Adler would rather use his dedicated blader, Zephiris than any other NEXT at least.
* HumanResources [[spoiler: Why the BETA are here.]]
* HumongousMecha
* [[ILoveNuclearPower I]] [[IncrediblyLamePun Luv]] [[ILoveNuclearPower Kojima Power]]
* {{Jerkass}}: Adler.
* [[spoiler: KillTheCutie]]: [[spoiler: [[WordOfGod I'M SORRY MAY!]]... [[AnyoneCanDie and it might just happen again.]]]]
* [[NukeEm Kojima 'Em]]: via Assault Armor. It WILL kill any BETA in the vicinity [[spoiler: except Carrier class]].
* MacrossMissileMassacre: Common Enough, hell a reminder that May Greenfield's Merrygate can unload 96 missiles at a target is given fairly early. [[spoiler: Not that it helps that 32 of them are shot down by Lux.]]
* MinovskyPhysics
* MissionControl: Selene (but only for Adler), Maria Summers, Cristoph (aka: Raptor). As a note, those in this position get a first hand view when the Lynx that they're working for dies...
* MoreDakka: Highly Advised when dealing with BETA. I repeat, Highly Advised.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Strayed (the Hero of 4A) chose to side with ORCA and destroy the Assault Cells, which, notably, let the BETA return to Earth... oops.
* NoPlansNoPrototypeNoBackup: Averted, although, in the case of TYPE-SIONE, the plans, and the back up were destroyed when the prototypes were stolen.
* OneHitKill: Pretty easy to pull off in a NEXT. Too bad you need to do that 29,999 more times.
* PrivateMilitaryContractors: Welcome to the world of being an Independent.
* PsychoForHire: Considering Adler's attitude and general disposition... it may just be the only thing keeping him in check is Selene.
* [[spoiler: PsychicPowers]]: [[spoiler: Selene may, or may not, have them.]]
* RealRobot: Even [=NEXTs=].
* RedshirtArmy: Ode to thee, Mamluk pilots. Or Giga Base crews. And the truth of the matter, the League sees everyone this way.
* RetGone: Takeru. He never existed. Any records of a man piloting the XG-70d Susanoo IV are false.
* SayMyName
* ShootTheDog: Invoked: In Chapter 1, Day 3, Selene asks Adler to kill her if they fail. He refuses, insisting they won't fail instead.
* SmugSnake: Adler, Tadashiro... [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment Adler]]... anyone from Omer, [[RunningGag ADLER]].
* SphereOfDestruction: Assault Armor
* StarfishAliens: The BETA
* SuperPrototype: TYPE-SIONE, a NEXT so notable that Omer outright declared full on war against the Interior Union after it got stolen.
* TankGoodness: RAI-DEN, although, he hasn't exactly shown up yet. Also AF Giga Base.
* TheGreatestStoryNeverTold: Thank you, "Father", now humanity has no idea what happened in the early 2000s, so no one is prepared for BETA. Also, Takeru still got {{Ret Gone}}'d, so no one knows much about the first Arms Fort, Susanoo IV. [[spoiler: And Omer certainly doesn't have any information on the HI-MAERF project that they scuttled from "the Corporation".]]
* ToxicPhlebotinum: Kojima Particles
* {{Utsuge}}: It's a Fanfic of one, and well, the main intent remains, despite no longer being a game or visual novel. [[spoiler: Enjoy day two? There's more where that came from.]]
* WalkingWasteland: The [=NEXTs=].
* WaveMotionGun: So many.
* ZergRush: Why the BETA are a threat.

Set after the events of Muv Luv Alternative play into Armored Core (Actually, it's particularly after For Answer occurs (following the ORCA path))... Humanity won the first BETA war thanks to some heroes who got {{Ret Gone}}'d, and eventually the TSF became the AC, which eventually became the NEXT. However, thanks to the Assault Cells, the 3.486784402x10^46 BETA in the universe were kept away... but with Strayed destroying the Assault Cells, the BETA could return to Earth, and return they do.
Updates weekly, with any hope.

!!Tropes featured in this story:
* AceCustom: Actual [=NEXTs=], NSS and Company Models exist, but amongst Ranked or otherwise Notable [=NEXTs=], they're all Ace Customs.
* AcePilot: Adler, Llad, May... Just about any notable Lynx. STRAYED.
* AfterTheEnd: Multiple Apocalypses have already occurred. It's a damn miracle Humanity is still around at this point.
* AlienInvasion: Type 1, and it happens TWICE, by the same Aliens, just a few hundred years apart.
* AlternateHistory: In regards to the Armored Core 4 timeline. It's how the blending of Muv Luv and Armored Core occurs. Also Armored Core 5 happened before 4.
* AMechByAnyOtherName: [=NEXTs=], Normals, [=TSFs=]...
* AlwaysSaveTheGirl: Given the choice between protecting Selene and ANYTHING else [[spoiler: (up to, and including a colony with several million people living in it)]], Adler will choose to save Selene, and nothing will make him think otherwise.
* AmazonBrigade: The Interior Union's Lynx are notably female {{Badass}}es. Taking the cake for them though are the 'Three Valkyries'...
* AnimeHair: May Greenfield sports some. And [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair it's green!]]
* AnyoneCanDie: [[spoiler: May Greenfield is just the tip of the iceberg.]]
* ApocalypseHow: Starts as a Regional Class 4, and expands in terms of the BETA, but thanks to Kojima, there's already been a Planetary Class 1.
* ArmCannon: NEXT Redeemer is equipped with heavy machine guns for arms.
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Lynx have nearly absolute authority in military operations, simply because a NEXT is such a powerful weapon.
* AwesomeButImpractical: Any "large" weapon against the BETA. Sure it's impressive, and you're likely to get a kill, but killing one Ruitare doesn't mean much if there's 30000 more.
* AwesomeYetPractical: Against [=NEXTs=], Assault Armor is AwesomeButImpractical, against the BETA on the other hand...
* {{Badass}}: See Ace Pilot.
* BadassCreed: Ismui's Valkyries' creed, "Achieve your mission with all your might. Despair not until your last breath. Make your death count!" will be returning.
* BeamSpam: BETA's answer to flying things. Horrifyingly effective. The Interior Union uses a similar combat doctrine.
* {{BFG}}: Most Guns, which is given considering HumongousMecha. For an non-mecha gun, the [=HL1-Anti MT Rifle=], a BFF-made personnel weapon that fires .95 caliber armor-piercing explosive rounds, with virtually no recoil due to advanced technology. It can easily kill a Tank-class BETA in one shot, and has a 25 round clip.
* {{BFS}}: Hello, Blades.
* BlackAndGrayMorality: A lot of the Human characters...
* BlueAndOrangeMorality: Hello, BETA.
* [[BullfightBoss Bullfight Mooks]]: Encounters with Ruitare.
* ChekhovsGun
* ChickenWalker: Mamluk... the standard MT.
* ChildhoodFriendRomance: Heavily hinted at between Adler and Selene.
* ColdSniper: BFF's Kroitchov
* CommonTongue: Everyone speaks English. Other languages are mentioned, and some names are definitely foreign, but everyone speaks English.
* CorporateSamurai: Company Lynx. Independents are not examples.
* CrapsackWorld: Gee, let's see: It's been Invaded by Aliens, Taken over by Evil Dictators, Had large Scale wars, had a hostile Corporate Takeover on a National scale, more large scale wars, polluted by radiation, had terrorists wipe out the measures taken to escape said pollution, and gets invaded by aliens... again.
* CurbStompBattle: Played with. [=NEXTs=] have extreme kill potential against BETA... so any small-scale encounter between a NEXT and BETA will be this, but the BETA counter with sheer numbers, which averts this trope.
* DeflectorShields: Primal Armor, not that it's very effective against BETA- as it does little against point attacks or Lasers. It does slow down Ruitares so a charging Ruitare won't do much damage, and it weakens the force of a Medium's swing. It does absolutely nothing to a Tank class though...
* DeusExitMachina: Strayed is Missing in Action ever since the victory of ORCA. White Glint is presumed dead after his defeat in Line Ark.
* EyeBeams: Lux. They hurt as bad a Procyon shots, so it's best to just not get hit.
* FinaglesLaw: Continues to exist from Muv Luv Alternative.
* FrickinLaserBeams:Lots. Also, why flying in BETA areas is bad.
* FriendlySniper: Valkyrie-03, pilot of Hrist. Surprisingly bubbly and cheerful for a sniper...
* GatlingGood
* GenderIsNoObject
* GunsAkimbo
* GunPorn
* HeroicBSOD: Cristoph suffers one almost immediately after he's introduced, [[spoiler: Thanks to the death of May Greenfield]].
* HeroesPreferSwords: Well, Adler would rather use his dedicated blader, Zephiris than any other NEXT at least.
* HumanResources [[spoiler: Why the BETA are here.]]
* HumongousMecha
* [[ILoveNuclearPower I]] [[IncrediblyLamePun Luv]] [[ILoveNuclearPower Kojima Power]]
* {{Jerkass}}: Adler.
* [[spoiler: KillTheCutie]]: [[spoiler: [[WordOfGod I'M SORRY MAY!]]... [[AnyoneCanDie and it might just happen again.]]]]
* [[NukeEm Kojima 'Em]]: via Assault Armor. It WILL kill any BETA in the vicinity [[spoiler: except Carrier class]].
* MacrossMissileMassacre: Common Enough, hell a reminder that May Greenfield's Merrygate can unload 96 missiles at a target is given fairly early. [[spoiler: Not that it helps that 32 of them are shot down by Lux.]]
* MinovskyPhysics
* MissionControl: Selene (but only for Adler), Maria Summers, Cristoph (aka: Raptor). As a note, those in this position get a first hand view when the Lynx that they're working for dies...
* MoreDakka: Highly Advised when dealing with BETA. I repeat, Highly Advised.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Strayed (the Hero of 4A) chose to side with ORCA and destroy the Assault Cells, which, notably, let the BETA return to Earth... oops.
* NoPlansNoPrototypeNoBackup: Averted, although, in the case of TYPE-SIONE, the plans, and the back up were destroyed when the prototypes were stolen.
* OneHitKill: Pretty easy to pull off in a NEXT. Too bad you need to do that 29,999 more times.
* PrivateMilitaryContractors: Welcome to the world of being an Independent.
* PsychoForHire: Considering Adler's attitude and general disposition... it may just be the only thing keeping him in check is Selene.
* [[spoiler: PsychicPowers]]: [[spoiler: Selene may, or may not, have them.]]
* RealRobot: Even [=NEXTs=].
* RedshirtArmy: Ode to thee, Mamluk pilots. Or Giga Base crews. And the truth of the matter, the League sees everyone this way.
* RetGone: Takeru. He never existed. Any records of a man piloting the XG-70d Susanoo IV are false.
* SayMyName
* ShootTheDog: Invoked: In Chapter 1, Day 3, Selene asks Adler to kill her if they fail. He refuses, insisting they won't fail instead.
* SmugSnake: Adler, Tadashiro... [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment Adler]]... anyone from Omer, [[RunningGag ADLER]].
* SphereOfDestruction: Assault Armor
* StarfishAliens: The BETA
* SuperPrototype: TYPE-SIONE, a NEXT so notable that Omer outright declared full on war against the Interior Union after it got stolen.
* TankGoodness: RAI-DEN, although, he hasn't exactly shown up yet. Also AF Giga Base.
* TheGreatestStoryNeverTold: Thank you, "Father", now humanity has no idea what happened in the early 2000s, so no one is prepared for BETA. Also, Takeru still got {{Ret Gone}}'d, so no one knows much about the first Arms Fort, Susanoo IV. [[spoiler: And Omer certainly doesn't have any information on the HI-MAERF project that they scuttled from "the Corporation".]]
* ToxicPhlebotinum: Kojima Particles
* {{Utsuge}}: It's a Fanfic of one, and well, the main intent remains, despite no longer being a game or visual novel. [[spoiler: Enjoy day two? There's more where that came from.]]
* WalkingWasteland: The [=NEXTs=].
* WaveMotionGun: So many.
* ZergRush: Why the BETA are a threat.
