Talko seems to be in bliss. Jalko shoots up and approaches Cualli. He sniffs her inquisitively, the sneezes on her. The parks right next to Talko when done.

Jaakko waits for the bot to explain.
Cualli seems a little startled by the dog sneezing on her and wipes her arm off before petting both dogs at the same time.

: To shorten a long story: I am a trophy of war.
"Sounds like you weren't exactly brought here willingly." She pauses briefly. "Do you miss home?"

Jaakko interjects.

"He was found at Taiton, brought to McNamara airbase in shambles, taken by Tippy, and fixed by a technician named Yukamo. He's been traveling with us more or less ever since then,"

The dogs are pleased.

Cualli frowns slightly at Jaakko, still fluffing the dogs. "Thanks, but I think he's more than able to answer for himself."

Walt vomits a stream of shells so dense he feels his plane slow down from the recoil, and the Sol is reduced to wholly unsalvageable swiss cheese.

Xiaomei and Yamato break towards the facility to put themselves between any more incoming transports.


"Sounds like you weren't exactly brought here willingly." She pauses briefly. "Do you miss home?"
: I do not miss where I was stationed as much as I miss having a purpose.

: I do not miss where I was stationed as much as I miss having a purpose.
"You want a purpose?" she asks, fluffing the dogs' ears. "Like some work, maybe?"

"You want a purpose?" she asks, fluffing the dogs' ears. "Like some work, maybe?"
: More work would be welcome.

: More work would be welcome.
"With how eager there pilots are to break their very expensive, complex toys..." She glances briefly at Jaakko before focusing on the robot again, "I can always use the extra help. You ever done engineering work before?"

"That's part of the reason I brought him here. I'm sure there's more he could do to help, but we need higher clearence. You had expressed interest in him, so I thought perhaps you would welcome the help," Jaakko says.

The dogs are in bliss.

"Two transporters down, two left. Moving in for another shot."

Faw aims at Transporter-5 and dumps all his remaining RGMs at it.

Walter laughs at the sheer power from the weapons and then looks out his roosterpit again at the armour where the HDR has finally stopped.

"So much for the new paint job. When ground crew has time make sure you go identify the mangles of that tin can I just downed. Snowman I'm moving to support you, stay clear."

Walter lumbers the Shikra to bear down on Turkeb-3 and fires only his RACs

"Watch out Raiden, they called for help."

Ellie fires two seekers at Tukreb-4.

Several lights on the annunciator panel blink as the Falcon is hit with cannonfire.

"[huff] Alright, breaking left!, [huff]"

Lorens turns away from the Tukreb and forms up alongside the Shikra. No longer fighting g-effects, he relaxes his limbs and gut and catches his breath.

Wait, did he just laugh?

RGMs are hopelessly ineffective at this range, and the transport easily dodges all three.

Walter laughs at the sheer power from the weapons and then looks out his roosterpit again at the armour where the HDR has finally stopped.

"So much for the new paint job. When ground crew has time make sure you go identify the mangles of that tin can I just downed. Snowman I'm moving to support you, stay clear."

It lays into his fuselage with the 20mm, tearing up the already weakened hull plating and destroying an intake. Walt's starboard engine is now on fire.

Two turns until point blank, and two turns until the transports can land. Walt and Snowman pick up some radar-guided missiles as a third VTOL wave of emerges from the clouds partway through missile range.
: Stay clear of the VTOLs, prepping shockwave.



"With how eager there pilots are to break their very expensive, complex toys..." She glances briefly at Jaakko before focusing on the robot again, "I can always use the extra help. You ever done engineering work before?"
: My work history consists only of janitorial work and animal care.

Eremit walks into the hangar to check Cualli's progress on his plane, then notices the crowd around it and decides he'd rather be somewhere else.

Eremit walks into the hangar to check Cualli's progress on his plane, then notices the crowd around it and decides he'd rather be somewhere else.
"You wanna learn how to help out in here? I could find you something to do. Maybe you'd-"

She trails off as she notices Eremit walking in. "Hey, this is your plane, yeah?" she calls. "It's done, come look it over."

Cualli glances at the robot and adds, in a tone that only he and Jaakko can hear, "Always good to check with the pilots ahead of time so they don't bitch at you at the last minute."
