-Gracia sits in her room, sniffling-

...

-She's gone. Maybe a wolf ate her-

-Maybe the last thing she thought about was how much you hated her-

-Which is true. You do hate her. So good-

...

-Better go check on her to make sure-

-She wobbles up onto her feet, having slept so uncomfortably that her leg is asleep-


-Yvette sleeps alongside them, in a chair, snuggled up into it-

-Snoring softly-

-You almost wouldn't believe she spent last night as a super robot boy tearing up an evil lab with a super saiyan-

What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?

Sthesia's Room (Aichi)

-Aichi can't help but reflexively cover his ears and yelp at the sound of the rifle Leos shot.-

What the...?! He dodged my shot!

Uh, I don't see him, Leos!

He's on the Gundam, that's why! (He quickly hands her the rifle) Keep him distracted while I try something!

But, Leos—!

(He fishes out what looks like a small jetpack and an assault rifle from a cupboard.) You've had training, you'll be fine. Don't worry about hitting him, just keep him occupied!

(Just before he heads out to pass Aichi, he does something on Sthesia's console...)


(Outside, the Gundam is pretty well armoured, but there are slim gaps where the joints are. Maybe you can— OH GOD, IS THAT AN ELECTRIC SHOCK?!)

(And how about some extra sniper shots to go with that, as well?)

Sthesia's Room (Aichi)

-Aichi watches as Leos leaves.-

"B-Be careful... Leos..."

-Aichi's scared. He really is just a normal 15 year old outside of playing Vanguard...-

"Oooh that, that kind of mad scientist, well, if she has any research papers I won't refuse, thanks for the offer"

Jo finished the coffee mug and put it down before turning his head to Bryce.

"Ooooh, well that's better at least. As long as you like what you're studying, in my opinion it's good"

(Is presently curled up in some leaves behind a boulder the forest, still sobbing her eyes out. Lifts her head at the sound.)

…?

(where could she be, gracia... where could someone who went nondescriptly downstairs be...)


(Finally stirs a bit, blinking and looking down at the robotic dog skeleton in her lap and the Yvette next to her.)


…?

(Uncowers, squinting up at Milly.)

...Oh... Heavens, forgive me, I thought—...

(Winces and clutches his chest, which bears surgical scarring and little holes where the wires went in.)

Ghhhh...

"Son of a-"

-A shot pierces his shoulder...revealing metal and wiring inside-

-Trying to just ignore the searing pain from that and the shock, Cross just stabs his sword into an opening-

"Well, if you're sure..." they say as they take the bottle and pour another shot.

"So it's like — central to American welfare capitalism — and it's kinda necessary to have the "American" in front of it — are these company towns, which are towns where basically all the buildings in town — all of them are owned by corporations."

They pulls their head back and down the other shot. Then they chuckle.

"And it's like, of course they're gonna paint a good picture of it. So they make life there seem all good and happy, right? So they advertise them as mini-utopias. The best towns in America, that kinda thing. Funny that they weren't!"

They look at Jo and grin wide. "Hell yeah, my dude!"

-Claudia, she looks so real...-

-She twitches in her sleep, her breathing isn't dead-timed perfect, her face is asymmetrical-

-She looks so peaceful, but she's secretly a warbot with a manly robo voice and big swords-


-Gracia heads downstairs-

-Checks the kitchen for break-up ice cream eating signs, or suicidal cake baking-

-Checks the living toom for dead wolves or evil science projects or used tear tissues-

-Eventually ventures outside-

Eires sat down at the (an?) island, looking particularly cranky....not that Bryce or Johann would know the difference.

(And getting off that motorbike of his, looking around for the source of what he swears was crying.)

(In a short while, Leos is downstairs and outside, and the backpack is actually a jetpack which he uses to fly up to where Cross is standing.)

(Sthesia, from the window, she's ADS'ing from, notices the damaged arm, and is amazed) Whoa.

"Here for Round Two after you wrecked my Skell?"

-That shock...doesn't seem to have hurt him that much, what?-

-Gohan approaches Yvette and Claudia-

"...Hey. You guys okay?"

Skell? What, is that the name of your Mobile Suit?

And how are you not unconscious from that shock?

"Good question. Here's an answer for ya!"

-Oh hey, the sniper rifle is back and-

"Shrapnel!"

-That's...not a sniper round, that's more like a scatter of them?!-

Sthesia's Room (Aichi)

-Aichi's still not doing anything out of fear. He's not even sure if it's safe to move... Should he say something?-

"W-What's happening out there, Sthesia...?"

-The situation is really overwhelming for him and he's not even sure what's going on now. All he knows is that there's a sniper and Leos went out after him.-

(No such things, Gracia... Maybe she was eaten by wolves. Maybe you need to look deeper.)

(Slowly stands, in all her tall, white-clad, pink-eyed albino lady glory, tears running down her face.)

...Th-that's such a pretty motorcycle... I'm so sad...!

(more cri...)


…?!

(Startles, but then realizes it's just the kid from last night. Is chubby and unassuming and super sad-looking in her wheelchair.)

...Y-y-yesssth... W-w-we—... nn... w-we're okay...

"Ahuh, I'm legit interested but, real quick question, where is this ehh "America" and "United States" Exactly?

Johann looks at Eires, reminded of Yesterday he looks serious for a split second before returning a relaxed expression.

"Hello, we didn't have a proper introduction right? I'm Johann, though call me Jo please, and you?"

(In a split second, Leos tries to dodge those shrapnel bits but then he takes a moderate amount in the leg, and attempts to tackle Cross. If it works, Cross should be losing his balance thanks to the boost the pack's thrusters have just gained.)

(Some of the shrapnel nearly hits Sthesia, who ducks while letting out a scream.)

(After a few seconds of nearly being shredded, Sthesia looks in Aichi's direction.)

Almost took us by surprise...

"Yeah! The whole reason behind it was because they said they had a "moral responsibility" to care for their workers, and that it just happened to intersect with their own interests, when in reality the priority was the other way 'round. These towns have no democracy as we know it; no elected positions, no public services, no — no anything. Union efforts were basically killed. Workers earned pennies. Now, that doesn't really sound 'moral' in our definition of it."

They look at Jo, head tilted.

"...North America? West Hemisphere?"
