Ah Combat, I think there's only Akane and a few other personnel in the room. The spoilered part of the first post says that the rooms where the pilots and partners meet is semi private.

[up] Sorry, should've read a little more carefully. I changed Yosuke's opening post.

If Kazumi or Dr. Suzuki want to drop in on the two Daves, they can. The fact tha he's bored was an open invitation for any of those three characters to come bug him really.

So, I don't know who Carl's partner is, and I don't really want to barge in on anyone's meetings.*

At least, that's what I understood about those meetings being one-on-one.

So yeah, I'm just having him stand there, able to bump into stuff, or be bumped into.

Also, could I get a rough estimate about how tall the mecha are? Pwetty Pwease? Ambiguous words like "big" and "tall" are going to wear out after a while.

It does seem like Carl is going to get paired with AI Dave, doesn't it?

Question, would Dave and Kazumi share office space?

So, Carl and AI Dave is okay for everyone involved?

I'd be okay with it. I'd be okay with anything, really.

Any training will probably be administered via simulation, because mecha are expensive. Also because the most likely trainer subscribes to Nanoha and Evangeline's methods.

[up][up][up] I suppose this would make sense, giving the American mech the AI designed by American researchers. Cats should probably have some say as well, but I don't think she'll object.

[up] Well, I have established that Yosuke doesn't really know what's going on yet. He might be the type to assume "hands on training" means "actually piloting a real mech".

It is time you all bore witness to Kazumi's secret ultimate skill, a terrifying technique passed down through generations of the Takaya family:

The ability to be the only one who actually does the paperwork.

The trainer is also most likely to be Nana. XD

I really should wait for a confirmation from Cats, first.

[up][up][up] Hey, Dave was doing his paperwork...

[up] I messaged Cats and she says it's fine. The cord on her laptop broke, but she'll try to get on later.

Ah right, sorry, let me clarify that:

All of the paperwork that matters.tongue

[up][up][up]Well, whenever she wants to jump in, Carl will still be standing around in the RP where I left him. Unless something else happens. Then he won't be.

Also, thinking about it now, I'm kind of disappointed the Russian robot doesn't have a communist ex-KGB pilot to act as a foil to the American robotsad Well, technically they're all Japanese robots, but you know what I mean.

And thinking about it even more, I find it ironic that the Russian mech is agile and high-tech while the American mech is an ugly hodge-podge of whatever could be strapped to it.

As I've said, I'm okay with Dave being matched up with Carl. Should be interesting. grin

I'm not sure whether I should have human Dave come with him or just have AI Dave run along so he has an excuse to talk to Kazumi.

...Maybe I'll turn this into a bit of a Schrodinger situation. If Carl posts first, then the two Daves have been walking through the complex this whole time to meet him. If Kazumi posts first, they've been standing around outside her office this whole time and little Dave can run off and meet him by himself.
