ABS FIESTA REDUX

[Qwepir]

"The Fenrir's got some moderate damage, one of my engines is at reduced power. Forgive me for trying not to die today,"
Jaakko sees that the AAA had been cleared out. He breaks from his orbit of the HQ sector and fires his three JSMs towards the HQ. The flashes of the motors firing cause the cloak's shroud to flash and come undone.

The JSMs partially collapse some of the building

Walter fires all his cannons twice into the buildings structure.

and Walter's barrage only makes the problem worse.

Hilbert aims and drops his UGB onto the HQ.

By the time the dust has settled from Hilbert's bomb, the once fortified headquarters lies in shambles. Frisk drops his GBU on the remains, just to make sure.
: Damn, guys, I wasn't being literal! Thanks for the cover, we'll take it from here. I don't think tossing bombs into CQC is gonna help us very much.

"Well, I'm glad that's dealt with. Certainly a lot more satisfying than last time we did ground strike."

[Qwepir]

With both missions accomplished, Mjolnir and Raiden set down at a nearby airfield to make sure the planes can make it back to Valhalla. During this brief downtime, Tippy is approached by Nagato.
: Hey, you said you wanted to get one of those guns from the prison camp, right? Well, lead says we're heading back there as soon as possible to look for Matsumoto, you wanna come along?

"Gun or no gun, I'm sure as hell going for Matsumoto. I'm in."

[Operator¹]

Ellie inspects the heavily damaged fuselage of the Tukreb and wonders how it didn't blow up from the HPPC blast.

[Qwepir]

"Gun or no gun, I'm sure as hell going for Matsumoto. I'm in."

: Oh, well that's kind of you. You should probably check with Crash first, though, I don't you to get in trouble.

[Tayasaurus]

Tippy has now gone to find Crash

[Mr. Hurricane]

Tippy finds Crash inspecting the damage to his Fenrir. He is studying the entry holes on the bottom of his craft under the right engine.

[Tayasaurus]

"Major, Do yo have a minute?"

[Mr. Hurricane]

"Yeah, need something?" he responds.

[Tayasaurus]

"Yeah, need something?" he responds.

"It's about Matsumoto. Raiden is going to be conducting a search and invited me along. I need to know if you will give me the go ahead, or better yet if you're going too."

[Mr. Hurricane]

Jaakko looks tired.

"You have my blessing if you want to go. I'd be willing to go but I doubt Raiden would want me along," he responds.

[Tayasaurus]

Jaakko looks tired.

"You have my blessing if you want to go. I'd be willing to go but I doubt Raiden would want me along," he responds.

"On the contrary. NOT going would imply the negative. You should go as a good gesture."

[Mr. Hurricane]

"If it's what they want, then sure, but with all the arguments I've had with them I think it's unlikely they'd try to get 'Major Jackoff [Bastard] Kirves' to go with them to look for Matsumoto. I just don't believe it's anything they'd want of me, and I'm not going to invite myself along because Gods forbid they hate me more,"

Jaakko glances back to the Fenrir. The right engine has a tiny puddle underneath it and is leaking something onto the ground ever so slowly.

[Tayasaurus]

"If it's what they want, then sure, but with all the arguments I've had with them I think it's unlikely they'd try to get 'Major Jackoff [Bastard] Kirves' to go with them to look for Matsumoto. I just don't believe it's anything they'd want of me, and I'm not going to invite myself along because Gods forbid they hate me more,"

"I think you should work harder to make peace with Raiden. Showing that you care for Matsumoto would help... but i'll leave that decision to you. I gotta go, i'll talk to you later, and thanks."

Tippy turns to leave
