First Distortion Cut: Enter 00

[orewagundamda]

There isn't so much a new face in the Docks district as there is a rather large new robot floating around, searching for... something. You may notice that your radio's get jammed as the robot's green, particle-like exhaust comes out of the strange thrusters placed on the machine's shoulders. If you hail him the face of a rather serious looking young man will stare back at you.

"My name is Setsuna F. Seiei. I have come here in order to aid in the defense of Midgard." He... doesn't say anything else. Outwardly, he doesn't say anything. Internally, he's embarassed because he doesn't know where he can park his machine, and someone with strong mental powers may be able to pick up on that, even if they aren't talking to him. He likely isn't aware that he's broadcasting his feelings, so you'll have to point it out to him.

[If Setsuna looks toward the ground, he might see a similar-looking Gundam, though this one is all-white. Meanwhile, its pilot is fidgeting with the communications built into the mobile suit. So the Gundam is just...standing there.]

[orewagundamda]

[This throws Setsuna for a loop. That definitely wasn't a Gundam developed by Celestial Being, but it was most definitely a Gundam all the same.]

[He turns on the external speakers, he needed to know right now how he came into possession of that.] Where did you get that Gundam?

[second_destiny]

[Well. That was bizarre. Why was there a Gundam in mid-air? It very clearly wasn't the AGE-1. Leaving the communications be (the AGE System would probably adapt them to whatever was shorting them out), Asem flips on his own external speakers.]

I should ask you the same thing. I'm a member of the Asuno family, and that's why I've got one.

[orewagundamda]

[The Asuno Family? Even before Veda was taken from them, they should have heard about someone else developing their own Gundam during the early days of CB's armed interventions. Do even other worlds have Gundam?]

Gundam is... Was the machine used to perform the armed interventions of Celestial Being, an organization dedicated to the eradication of war. Now, Gundam is the machine that will Change the world.

[second_destiny]

...What? I've never heard of an organization like that, even during the time of the Earth Sphere wars. This isn't making any sense!

[orewagundamda]

[Earth Sphere Wars? This is starting to make more and more sense, strangely enough.]

It is entirely possible that there is a reason we've never heard of each other. Tell me, do you know of a ring of solar panels surrounding the equatorial line of Earth in space, connected to the planet by three different Orbital Elevators belonging to the Advanced European Union, The Human Reform League, and the Union of Solar Energy and Free Nations?

[second_destiny]

...Yeah, no, that doesn't sound familiar at all. This is the first time I've heard of another world having Gundams, though.

[orewagundamda]

... There is much I want to learn about your Gundam. [This is... probably the closest you're going to get to 'I want to be friends with you', Asem. Setsuna's still bad at communicating concepts like friendship.]

[second_destiny]

...Um, we'll have plenty of time for that...at least I think. Who knows how long we're gonna be here. I've only been here two weeks so far.

[orewagundamda]

[Nods at this explanation.] What is your name, Gundam pilot? [Wow, this feels very different hearing those words when on the other end of the spectrum.]

[second_destiny]

I'm Asem Asuno. You?

THE ARMS FUCKING MATCH!

[orewagundamda]

Setsuna F. Seiei.

... Could you possibly direct me to somewhere I can land my Gundam? I'm not that familiar with the area yet.

UNLIMITED HOMAGE WORKS

[second_destiny]

Huh? Oh, yeah! There's a hangar down by the pier where all the mobile suits are kept. Just go straight toward the sea from where I'm standing, then turn around. It's hard to miss.

GUNDAM BROS BEFORE HOS, MAN

[orewagundamda]

I thank you, Asem Asuno. [Off he goes, and aren't those green particles pretty?]
