Faith and Minato
"...The fuck do you think I'm gonna do? Jill off to it or something? Please." (Fleur)

[Strider03]

Well, the whole Fleur thing was out of his hands now, so Shef had retreated back to the supply table. There he'd watched with a carefully concealed and very odd feeling mix of amusement and dread as Yoake unveiled her mech. He'd been considering asking a few questions, primarily about the rockets--solid or liquid fuel, burn times and the like--but then Yoake had dashed off into the mansion for god knows what.

Since it seemed like it'd still be a bit before everyone was regrouped enough to start the mission, Shef found himself a wall against which he sat down. He pulled out one of the metal sheets he'd picked up from the supplies along with a remote, and carefully folded the metal sheet in the required way. Turned out to be a delicate crane. Shef had little knowledge or great appreciation for this art form, but it was rather nice to watch the small minimalist form start to flap its wings.

Once it was ready, he held it out on his hand while working one of the controls with his other, causing the thing to take off. First, to get a feel for the thing, Shef attempted to circle the room twice. Once he was somewhat confident, he sent it out in the direction Yoake had headed. She'd probably be out of sight by this point, but he'd search around the nearby rooms and halls a bit anyway. Get a feel for using the drones to actually scout.

[Chevaleresse]

"No, it's fine. I just thought I might be doing something wrong." She took the other practice infusion in her right hand, and repeated the earlier process of grabbing it mentally, then shoving it into her spear and out the end.

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Minato simply pats Faith comfortingly, looking over at Fleur meanwhile.
"If she can't remove it, she can't remove it. Sorry, Faith, I tried, but if she can't remove it, I don't think anyone else can.

Do you mind just.....keeping that thing out of existence? Just don't show it around. Or speak of this ever again. That last part'll probably be best."

[Empiricist]

Shef
Well, Yoake turns out to be currently chasing a terrified Mary around in a mechsuit.

The mechsuit has breasts.

Goddamnit Yoake.

Noriko
You do that, getting that much more familiar with the thresholds and sensitivities. Try as I might, I couldn't figure out a good innuendo for you shoving things up your spear, go figure.

Faith and Minato
"Sure." _(Fleur)

[Strider03]

Shef gave an exhausted sigh. It was probably fine. He'd just keep the drone following at least ten feet off to watch what happened next. If Yoake appeared to be going to far, he'd get up and head over. Probably. For now, he'd just keep practicing with the drone taking glances over every so often to make sure things were fine.

[Powder Miner]

Faith kept her face in her hands for a moment before she finally pulled them away and nodded glumly, though she remained sitting down for now. "That's probably the best I can hope for, y-yeah... at least this means that you didn't make it yourself, either. ...still really sucks, though." Then she sighed and shrugged a little. "...but whatever, I guess. Guess we have to move on, what with the Aramitama and all. . ." She trailed off.

[spümpkin]

Yoake doesn't want to plow Mary to bits just yet. She halts the mech's pace, and through the inbuilt speaker system, yells.

"HEY! STOP RUNNING! IT'S TIME FOR MORE TRAINING!"

Because this is not particularly encouraging, she also tries to move her mech so it is in front of Mary, and blocking her escape.

"THINK ABOUT SOMETHING COOL BEING REAL, LIKE DRAGONS OR SOMETHING!"

[Empiricist]

Yoake
When confronted with by a giant robot with an equally giant pair of breasts, the human brain tends to shut down from sheer terror. Such things evoke a primal fear after all, as primal as spiders and darkness, doubly so when piloted by someone who an outsider may be inclined to categorize as a domestic terrorist, albeit one with a strange and unknowable agenda.

It is only natural then that Mary curls up into a ball as that now all so familiar pressure explodes outwards. A few seconds later pass. One of the phantasmal servants gently prods Mary.

"Oh uh... Yoake... S-sorry! I didn't see you there! I thought I was getting attacked by a monster!"

[spümpkin]

Yoake waves, but it's not visible.

"IT'S TIME FOR THE REAL DEAL! IMAGINE SOMETHING REALLY COOL TO FIGHT ME. I WON'T BE ABLE TO STAY FOR TOO MUCH LONGER, BUT WE CAN CONTINUE THIS ANOTHER TIME AFTER."

Yoake is prepared to dodge anything coming from Mary.

[Empiricist]

Yoake
Gonna go out on a limb here and guessing "a servant slapping me with a paper fan" is not what Mary thought, though that, is precisely what happens.

"H-hey! Cut that out! Um uh, uh..."

Your thrusters rotate ninety degrees upwards. And then they fire, full force, blasting you into the ceiling and leaving the torso of your mech kinda just lodged there.

"Aha! Take that! Wait no! This is my house! What am I gonna do now?"

Mary meanwhile has gone from triumphantly pointing at you to just rolling around clutching her head.

[spümpkin]

The speakers on the mech buzz with static for a moment, before Yoake uses the thrusters to gently push herself back down. "Gently", in this case, meaning with as little roof breaking as possible, which is still a bit.

"-bzzt- EXCELLENT JO- -bzzt- MARY! TRY SOMETHING COOLER THIS TI- -bzzt-"

Again, Yoake readies herself.

[Empiricist]

Yoake
You descend completely unhampered as Mary kinda just stares at you. "L-like what? I tried a nuke and black mail and a teleporter but I just got smacked!"

[spümpkin]

"TRY HARDER! IMAGINE LIKE, A DRAGON! Y'KNOW? WITH WINGS AND FIRE BREATH AND STUFF. YOU DO KNOW WHAT A DRAGON IS RIGHT?"

[Empiricist]

Yoake
"How does that help?"

Well, she's got a dragon plushie now, close enough?
