"That was me," Gus says with a nod. "Don't be too hard on yourself; I guarantee neither of us could do it again." Gus considers some form of formal greeting gesture, but wisely decides against it. "Tempest is only my callsign, most people call me Gus. Nice to meet you -" he hesitates, "- Musashi."
: A pleasure, Gus.
Musashi holds her hand out for a handshake, taking the formality initiative where you had not.
I figure I may as well find a member of Raiden to talk to, so I linger around the hangars, tending to my aircraft. The weather is nice, so why not stay out for a little bit?
Oh right. Those giant death beasts.
I decide to linger anyways, going to find Musashi.
You find her just outside the hangars, talking to Gus.
"Err... has she gone potato?"
Nagato groans as though she heard what you said.
Richard shoots her a look, surprise colored all over his face. His eyes droop down to the smoldering poke in his hand. "Mavericks..." He blinks. "... Didn't have you pegged down as someone who smokes," though thinking about it now, I guess she'd be the one in Raiden to do it. "What's yours?"
Xiaomei takes note of your surprise, letting out what sounds like a light chuckle.
: I get those looks of surprise a lot when people see the burn scars. Started to smoke after I got them, too.
She takes a puff before continuing.
: Can't pronounce this brand, though. Can't read Huit, translates to "
fire snake" or something. Strong stuff.
