Two familiar machines come zipping up over the edge of the ship from where its small twin catapults are located. Larger than the Bluegill, but built along similar lines, they have a graceful, long-limbed look to them that epitomizes the aesthetic of Bahamutcorp space-combat mecha. Their heads are shaped like old-fashioned frogmouth jousting helmets, the shallow V of the 'eyeslit' glowing orange. Like the Bluegills, they're painted a pale bluish green, with division and serial number in white on their pauldrons.

One of them is the cannon variant, lacking a forearm shield and instead toting a huge rifle. While the other actively climbs up towards you and charges into melee range, the second (the one who beat your initiative) jets upwards to a height that puts it roughly 350m from you.

However, forewarned is forearmed, and your arms and reach outmatch that of the melee Pumpkinseed charging you, allowing you to attack first. The Cannon Pumpkinseed is no threat this turn, spending both Actions on movement.

>[What do, Roarke Starwind? You might as well feed me 1d10+14s since you're going to attack.]

>>47273576
Look at the bright side. At least they haven't developed giant wheels for bluegills to ride in when fighting in gravity conditions.

>>47273576

Not quite. For one, they're green, they've got sort of a swallowtail-shaped backskirt covering a torso thruster and fin-shaped thruster cowls at various places on the legs. Their shield also isn't large and round, but more of a pillbug-shaped gauntlet-and-bracer cover on the left arm. Plus they have swords instead of large maces. They're also green.

Otherwise, yeah, pretty similar.

Disarm the sword knight. Since he isn't using a heavy cannon he can't do anything to us without the sword. Two punches out of 8 is enough to destroy it. Then we move on to the cannon knight. Still keeping with our no casualty stance.

We get a free second hit on the same location whenever we land a punch, bro. We just tore off its right arm already, it looks like. Plus, I like grappling the sword one or using our hookshot on the cannon one better.

>>47274003
The Einerad was apparently pretty strong too. The wheel could withstand beam weapons and was often used to just run other mechs over.

>>47274098

I first played through the Painted World on a very small TV with awful contrast. Bonewheels were the worst part of everything, because they're hard to see at a distance and like dark places. At least I always made heavy meleeists with greatswords and such, if I'd been a caster it would have been a real "pick up the soap, Chosen Undead" scenario.

>>47274091
We can hit the melee pumpkin 4 times in one action. Two to destroy arm, One to destroy head.

I'm assuming we are using the last action to grapple the cannon guy since we don't have enough speed to reach him in one action otherwise.

>>47274135
Should we be on the lookout for wheel mechs now Wong?
Is clemmy's mech just a wheel skeleton with stilettos?

>>47274148

This is incorrect. You may attack twice with your punch per Action because it has the Quick property. If it hits with either of those, you get a free second hit at that location. You don't get to turn that free second hit into a grapple attack, using the grapple once is itself an Action.

So for instance, you could make two attack rolls (potentially four hits) on the melee Pumpkinseed, and use your second Action to launch your harpoon at the cannon Pumpkinseed.

>>47274180
no anon, she has TWO wheels. also we should totally make wheels of our own.

>>47274228
The upgrade to the mech in the picture is a mech that has the wheel built in so people couldnt take it away.

>>47274221
That's what I said though.

'(Take on me!)'

'TAKE ME OOOOOOOOOOOOON~'

'(Take on me!)'

This Pumpkinseed has the most common vibro-gladius shape employed by the UJCIDF, the so-called Big Bowie. As you might expect, it looks like a big, wide knife proportionately sized like a sword, with a shallow hook at the tip. With a flawlessly practiced four-step it whips its right arm down towards you, the blade extending to its deployed configuration as it does.

You don't wait for it, you turn your mech's body sideways, tighten the electromagnetic clamps holding your feet to the deck, and as his arm moves past you you grab it with both of yours and flip the smaller machine head over heels so that it slams down on its back on the deck, before you lean in and clamp your left fist's fingers around its shoulder, activating the rippers in your palm and fingers to shred the metal. The arm comes off, and just as the Cannon Pumpkinseed reaches its desired altitude you point your right arm at it and fire the grappling harpoon.

'I'll be gone...' Murmurs A-Ha as the smart microdrones wrap the cable several times around the Cannon Pumpkinseed's wrist, jerking its arm out straight towards you and ruining its attempts to shoot.

The Cannon Pumpkinseed doesn't hesitate, it fires all of its thrusters in a frenzy and jerks around like a bee caught in a spiderweb, doing its best to pull free (in other words, two Escape attempts, if the first one succeeds it will do a cannon shot at you instead, opposed Reflexes+Mecha Fighting - mech's weight penalty basically)

'In a day or twoooo~~~~~~'

[Rolling against >>47273873 and >>47273897 If the first Escape attempt succeeds the second Anon has your escape roll]

Pull the cannon mech in. We have a chance to get him towards us in just one action. If you guys want to look like a cool cat, we can pull with the last action. OR if we are in range. Charge and DROP KICK.

>>47274513
Yeah, but what sort of an moron would drop down into a hole after they're exhausted, right?

We're all fucking idiots. Dammit.

Rolled 8 + 11 (1d10 + 11)

So, you wish to perform the Grapple Drag maneuver? Opposed Mecha Fighting roll, +1 for every weight category you have over him (so since you're at 59.5 and he's at 39, you get +2). For each point you beat the enemy by, you drag him 100m closer. If he enters your melee range (he's 350m away, so you need to beat his roll by 3 to get him adjacent to you) you get a free Ram or Dropkick attempt.

>>47274548

"KYAAAAAAA~!" Echoes over the comms, "D-DON'T TANGLE MEEEEE!"

You begin retracting the cord, while the high-pitched, feminine voice from the Cannon Pumpkinseed temporarily drowns out A-Ha.

"NOOOO DON'T PULLLLL!" The pilot wails. She's thrashing around as best she can, but the Kaiser is just too strong. It takes effort and all your attention, the UJCIDF mech named after a sunfish is fighting like a big gar.

"MISTER STARWIND DOOON'T I DON'T WANNA GET SMASHED I'LL SHOW YOU MY T-T-TITS ON V-V-VIDCOMM OR WHATEVER YOU WAAAAANT!" She wails as you drag her into melee range.

You try to kick her, but she zips right out of the way at the end of her now-quite-short tether as you spot motion out of the corner of your eye.

"LET GO OF HER YOU BASTARD!" Roars a tomboyish but still distinctly female voice, presumably from the melee Pumpkinseed you disarmed. Its right arm might be nothing but some sparking cables emerging from its shoulder now, but its left arm still works fine, and it's dropped its rocket pod to grab one of the discarded handheld swords the Bluegills held, charging at you clumsily and flipping the sword around into a reverse grip to try and cut the cord. You tag her elbow with the tip of your shield and casually send her sprawling in zero-g, although she still has the sword in her left hand. The Bluegill is still huddled, covering its face with its remaining hand. That's its sword the Pumpkinseed nee-san has.

>[The Cannon Pumpkinseed is going to try, again, what it did last turn, making two escape attempts and if the first succeeds it will try shooting you with the second. You know what to roll, lads!

The maximum mecha complement of this vessel is 20. It might not be carrying its full load, but it can definitely take more than the eight machines you've seen emerge from it so far. In fact, it should be somewhat ominous that two have been emerging every turn and you didn't see any more this time.

You're missing a decent chunk of your song as two women wail at you, and you can hear Red Siren laughing her ass off over the comms too, her Archen holding onto itself as she sits on the trio of scrapped but not destroyed Bluegills, mostly reduced just to torsos by now. Some people would pay fortunes to be sat on by Red Siren.

"I SAID LET HER GO YOU SON OF A BIIIIIITCH!" First, the mouthy one. She ducks your first punch, but stumbles over broken Bluegill parts on the second and takes your left fist right on the elbow. It cracks badly, and you lean a little to the left and pop her in the same spot with your right fist, the drills on the knuckles slicing through her servos like butter. You shove her chest and she goes stumbling backwards.

You're getting viddcomm requests from the Cannon Pumpkinseed, but you know that thing could do some damage if it got lucky with its big, heavy weapon.

"NOOOOO DOOOON'T SMAAAASH MEEEE I DON'T WANNA DIE A VIRGIIIIIIN" The Cannon Pumpkinseed kicks its legs, only tangling itself worse in the harpoon's cable, "I-I'LL DO ANYTHING YOU WANT JUST DON'T SMAAAASH MEEEE! I-ISN'T IT MEAN ENOUGH TO HAVE ME ALL WRAPPED UP LIKE THIS!? WHY WOULD YOU BULLY A CUTE GIRL!?"

You gently rip her machine's right arm off while she's squirming around. It frees her from the cable, but also leaves her disarmed unless she tries to copy her friend...who is yelling loudly at her for being a coward and a crybaby...and grab a sword in her left hand.

"W-wait I'm free? Thank you!" The one-armed Cannon Pumpkinseed throws her remaining arm around the Knuckle Kaiser, lifting one of her mech's heels almost to her mech's posterior.

The armless melee Pumpkinseed, meanwhile, is backing up as far as she can and lowering her head, "OUTTA MY WAY, I'M GOING TO KICK HIM TO PIECES!"

"NOOO DON'T YOU'LL HIT ME TOOOOO!" Clinging Pumpkinseed wails even more loudly.

Red Siren sounds like she's having trouble breathing through her gales of laughter.

"Pathetic, really pathetic. You rookies can't hack it at all, can you?" That's a semi-familiar voice, coming over the comms. You've been a little distracted by Pumpkinseeds, but now you look up, and see Something Else.

They're clearly a derivative of the basic Pumpkinseed, but there are some notable differenced. First, they're silver and white. They have a more pointed top to their heads, and a cross-shaped 'eyeslit' glowing icy white. Your Target Analyzer tells you that those short rods they're each carrying are a less primitive version of Mohammed's plasma swords, no longer needing to be attached to the main body of the mech via a cable. Instead of a little gauntlet-cover, each one has a full-sized round shield hooked up to a missile launcher. Your Target Analyzer also reveals each one is toting a pair of emergency single-use Heavy Missiles, one in the right forearm, another concealed within a slot on the head. The one in the rear has a longer rod, long enough to be wielded two-handed, and her shield is attached to her shoulder rather than her elbow, letting you see that it's attached to some kind of independent mechadendrite.

"This is Gretchen Colburn of QTPI news, here to report on a devastating defeat! Of th-"

Red Siren interrupts Gretchen as she mauls the third Pumpkinseed, which had been trying to sneak up on her, shooting off one of its arms and its head with her wrist cannons.

"Yes, THREE full squads of UJCIDF Pumpkinseeds, brought down by Red Siren and Roarke Starwind. What could the implications of this matchup be? Is it a juicy celebrity love affair? Stay tuned! But don't worry, your lovely host doesn't plan on giving up without a fight...not when the UJCIDF has loaned me and my friends these lovely Pumpkinseed IIs!" The one with the beam spear poses dramatically, and her four friends all activate their beam rapiers simultaneously. Thin, alabaster needles of light pierce the darkness of space from the plasma projectors mounted into their hilts.

At this point they're just entertainment and I hope possibly a recurring enemy (Oh no its him again run!).

Two of the Pumpkinseed IIs detach from the group. One pauses to look down at the huddled Bluegill by the ship's fin in silence...probably yelling at it over the comms. Then it kicks it. The smaller mech bolts upright, grabs a rocket launcher that Gretchen tosses to it, and follows the paired Bluegill II's on a circuitous route towards Siren.

"It's not quite half-and-half, Darling, but I'll have to be satisfied with that..." The redheaded pirate idol sighs, then adds more firmly, "If you're ogling that girl's tits on vidcomm, don't get distracted. Remember, mine are better, so keep them safe and you can look at them later!" She's speaking on the ally frequency, so the UJCIDF can't hear you.

"Are you frightened, are you scared? Watch closely, viewers, I'm about to give Roarke Starwind the fight of his life!" Her Pumpkinseed II has a customized crest, and is a bit more ornate, swishing its beam lance through the air and charging directly at you. Her friends parallel her course, a graceful trifecta of blows, "Witness this, our fearsome Jetstream Atta-"

You turn the volume up.

And we have a successful parry. Roarke is phenomenally lucky. Sorry, everyone, I wasn't clear enough when I said "unless you parry successfully", I saw we had unused rolls and didn't actually NEED more. Mea culpa!

Rolled 8 + 14 (1d10 + 14)

>>47276552
disarm the mooks, work our way up to the reporter

>>47276575

A Grab to disarm is something Roarke is pretty good at, but I'd advise against using someone else's captured melee weapon as the Pure Brawl and only Brawl guy.

>>47276624
Take the weapon and fake out an attack for a punch

>>47276624
What about if you shoved the spear into a defenseless mechs ass? Like the crying girl.

>>47276577
Considering Roarke is pretty much this even down to one of them being a guy http://youtu.be/umhuM3M_mfI

By the way, those shields of theirs automatically parry the first attack they're targeted by each round. All successive attacks require actual parries.

I won't dismiss your rolls, but just note that the first attack made each round against one of them is considered an automatic miss. So whichever one you're punching had one automatic miss, then >>47276568 is the second attack, >>47276611 is the third, and we don't have a fourth yet.

By the way, are you going for a mook or the reporter?

>>47276591
But Roarke doesn't field only women.

And he does have his libido under control. He was able to turn down at least a handy on the first date.

>>47276641
>>47276659

Awful idea. If I'm reading right, earlier the one Pumpkinseed was able to grab an unused weapon with one Action. We'd be wasting an action to make one of them waste an Action, and if we held onto whatever we grabbed it would disable one of our fists.

Rolled 5 + 14 (1d10 + 14)

Get rid of the reporter's spear, it's the most killy weapon they have.

>>47276659
No. One, it's in the middle of combat, 2 it might kill her, and 3 it's a waste of a good peice of loot.

We should just focus on disabling and dismembering, trying to get as much loot as possible.

Melee. That's why Samantha was the one dropping the bomb on the Tarrasque.

>>47276705
At the end of the day she still has a dick even though we see her as a girl

>>47276776

Oi. Word of QM here. Roarke is a Viking/Spartan/Roman. If you guys want to argue about it using 21st century terminology save it for when you aren't facing down girls with beam weapons. This all started after one poster started going on about how Roarke should get upgrades from Mohammed and Yoritomo, so I really do believe Anon's comments that it's one frustrated fujoshi or gay guy trying to push his sexuality on normal /tg/ deviance. If you're sincere, and not a shitposter, please knock it off. If you are a shitposter, I wish you find a more fulfilling way to express yourself, because at least waifu wars were funny.

>>47276792

Two hits and a miss! Who were you prioritizing again?

>>47276840
If you think this is one guy, then you obviously weren't paying attention last thread. You had one guy saying it was all a fujoshi conspiracy and multiple people telling him 'no, fucking a trap really is kinda gay'.

>>47276840
Let's go back to arguing over which girl is government top dog

>>47276860
Shouldn't it be three since were suppossed to have plus 19

if it's pretty, Roarke will fuck it.

>>47276876
Obviously Sam, on account of not being a bloodthirsty madwoman

>>47276861
And again, it's a little gay. I say this as a Sisterly Alliance fag. Sam and Karen a best forever. It's still a little gay. And that's ok!

>>47276901
But he asked for girls.

>>47276881

No. Plus 14. Are you trying to ruse me, Thunder? Knuckle Kaiser's weight begins with a 5, so it imposes -5 on his rolls. Similarly, these girls have a smaller dicepool than Roarke, but their Pumpkinseed IIs inflict only a -3.

can we please get back to bullying young girls in mechs?

>>47276960

+5 CP for Clemmy.

Wong, please ignore the shitposting faggot. He's some asshole trying to get you to move to /qst/. Fucking Samantha may be a LITTLE bit queer, but she's a girl in her heart so there's nothing wrong with that. Just don't respond to him anymore. In fact, nobody respond to him anymore. He's not a player and is only here because his earlier attempts got deleted by the janitors.

You're just as annoying as the 'shitposters' you're against.

fuck off.

>>47277036
Can we all just focus on ripping this chick's mech apart and fucking with them.

How about we all keep our opinions on this to ourselves and go back to enjoying a fun quest? Because in the end, it doesn't matter if its gay or not, what matters is that Roarke likes Sam. And that is what matters.

'I'LL BE GONE~'

'IN A DAY OR TWOOOOO~~~~~~'

You, however, don't wait around for them. You push the clinging one-armed Pumpkinseed aside for her own good, first. Then you prepare to receive the attacks of the three more elite warriors. Releasing the electromagnetic locks on your feet, you fire your thrusters and jump over their perfectly coordinated attack. One is a little slow, and has time to react, turning to poke at you with her estoc. It burns a neat little scar into your shield, so you focus on her first. You swing your arm wide to throw her sword to the side, grab her by the elbow, and twist once to the left, once to the right, then pull. Her arm pops off, and she squeals with indignation at you over the comms, "Why are you being so mean!? Don't you want me to arrest you? I...I mean...of course you don't...but it would really make my career..."

Her friends turn around as one, "Bully!" "New reports indicate you are a BRUTE, Roarke Starwind!"

You rabbit-punch the second rapier Pumpkinseed II's shoulder, plant your foot on her back, and rip her arm off. You have a drift of floating right arms surrounding you by this point, it almost gives you an idea for a weapon system...that and something Karen kept murmuring in her sleep about 'infinite flying fists' and 'a cape that can flap in space'.

Gretchen spins around to face you, holding her lance proudly, "To think, initially I brought them along because I wanted to do a scoop on the so-called 'Starwind Effect'. Ever since you started hitting the holonews, young women have been joining the UJCIDF in droves. Some are probably hoping you'll capture them, some are hoping to capture you. E...Even I..." She squirms a little in place.

You reach out, and gently take her right hand in yours, the Knuckle Kaiser's massive fingers dwarfing those of the small, silvery Pumpkinseed II, "Gretchen, it's okay, I understand." You murmur over the sound of A-Ha.

"You...you do...?" You hear a quiet gasp over the comms from her, her voice sounds slightly confused. Her friends squeal in congratulation. You make the Knuckle Kaiser nod. You swear her Pumpkinseed II is looking a little dewy-eyed, and you can feel the gaze of an impressionable young girl radiating from the cross-shaped 'eyeslit' like a fuzzy pink laser.

So you're very gentle as you reach out and stroke her machine's right shoulder, tightening your grip just enough to bend the metal as you twist her machine's arm off. There's a shriek that lacks any sort of journalistic self-possession over the comms, managing to form into words, "MISSILES! FIRE MISSILES!"

As one, panels of armor on their head slide back to reveal a Heavy Missile poised to fire, and they launch!

>>47277398

...I hate to dim anyone's enthusiasm, but six fists really IS more realistic. You could have more, but then it starts causing your dicepool to rapidly drop.

What if the six fists break up art into smaller fists on demand?

>>47277565
You think you can make a cape out of six fists?

Firstly, how fucking big are you making these fists

secondly we'll just learn to use more of the drones at once and subsystems.

>>47277599
Have 2 wings with thrusters at the end, 2 fists clamp onto the wings per side. It'll look pretty cape-like.

But then it won't billow, it'll just waggle around in huge motions, not wave-like at all.

That's not a cape!

"Grab your swords in your other hands, we've got him!" Howls Gretchen. Her friends' shots go wide, but hers is spot-on and aimed directly at the target of her ire. You wince in sympathy as the Heavy Missile explodes against the Kaiser's mighty robot crotch, tearing up the armor and damaging your circuitry. The fact that it knocks you around in your cockpit and fills your screen with white light is a secondary consideration.

"Nice shot, but...but we really don't got him, G." One of the other girls shrugs. The third chimes in, "Y-yeah, look around, everyone who tried it is missing both arms. I think we lost."

All three of them sigh, somehow managing to look dejected even without vidcomms on, "We tried our best." Gretchen says firmly, "This might even be a new record for damage. Nobody's ever really heard of the Black Ogre getting seriously hurt before."

"Yeah! We did our best!"

"It's not our fault, if our machines were bigger, then maybe..."

Gretchen shoves the second one with her remaining left arm, nearly knocking her off the ship, "Don't blame the Pumpkinseed II, it's cute and perfect! We just needed more of them. And...and maybe we should have opened with the missile salvo and THEN closed to melee range..." She holds her arm up in surrender, and pats the Knuckle Kaiser's chest, "Good job, big guy."

Well, by default they're as large as your regular fists, which are pretty huge. Probably flatter, too, for more surface area.

"Rosita, you got your signature move ready? We are done here."

>>47277704
But six fists in anything other than a 1 column configuration won't cover anything more than like, half of the machine. And those little capes are silly looking. And if it's only 1 fist "wide" then it'll just be a long scarf, which, while fashionable, is not majestic.

>>47277688
thanks.
your still kidnapped
and I'm stealing your mech, too

>>47277764

Would you rather have twelve that make attacks as though you had your Reflexes and Mecha Fighting halved? If I'm telling you they're big fists, and that the flexible framework for the wings will cover it, I mean it.

>>47277738
This works

>tfw people start calling Knuckle Kaiser stupid shitty arm puns because he tears all the fucking arms off of things

Oh sweet lord.

>>47277727
I love that game. Just so much fun.

>>47277790
Hey, you better believe I'm going to make damn sure we're getting a worthy cloak! Even if it means doubting you. I will do whatever I must for the good of the best waifu in the universe.

Knuckle Kaiser daki's when?

>>47277800
>Knuckle Kaiser has a load of armaments.
>The Kaiser is armed and dangerous.

>>47277790
>Not wanting to have one GIANT fist.

We need quality attacks not quantity. Also it's pretty damn cool to see a transforming cape.

>>47277800
>What our for Roarke he comes out and disarms you with his charm, then his mech
>You know fighting Starwind is like a Hemingway novel, a farewell to arms

Thank you i'll be here all night

>>47277790
>Would you rather have twelve that make attacks as though you had your Reflexes and Mecha Fighting halved

Do we still get two hits per fist at normal fist damage?

>>47277790
Do we have to use all 12 or could we only use 6 of them and have the rest still on us?

"You shot me. In the dick." You're still wincing even though YOUR crotch is just fine.

"No, I shot the Black Ogre in the dick." She continues patting you, "...After you took advantage of me, and when I was trusting and helpless, ripped my arm off. You just have to do some bodywork, I need to replace a servo on a machine I'm BORROWING for JOURNALISTIC REVIEW." She harrumphs.

"In. The. Dick."

"Yes! In the dick! Do you want me to kiss it better or s-forgetIsaidthatohbyJunoIdidnotmeantosaythat!"

"In the. Dick." You repeat one last time.

"W-well it was revenge for all the women whose hearts you've broken."

"You're lucky it's just me and Red Siren here today." You pat the Pumpkinseed II's conical head.

"No she's not, darling~ She's very unlucky I'm here...because if you're not fully functional I'm skinning her with a potato peeler~" Rosita's Archen looms over the Pumpkinseed's shoulder, getting off her throne of Bluegills, Pumpkinseed, and Pumpkinseed IIs.

The three Pumpkinseed II's and two Pumpkinseeds on your side, along with the various damaged Bluegills, all try to hide behind you. Rosita can be scary.

"Um, hey. Look, since I actually scored a hit, I deserve an interview." Gretchen pushes her luck, stubbornly, "You've kind of ruined my material for the day, these girls won't be any good to interview now that you're actually here and they're all...EXCUSE ME, PLEASE STOP TALKING LIKE HIM ABOUT THAT OVER THE ALLY-ONLY FREQUENCY LADIES I STILL HAVE TO HEAR IT EVEN IF HE CAN'T...Ahem. They're useless. And I can't test-drive broken Pumpkinseed II's. At least it looks like you have some Harpies nearby getting decent footage, I should've thought of that. So what exactly do you want? Why ambush little me?"

"We want to be interviewed, dear girl!" Rosita purrs cheerfully.

"We just want to get our side of the story out there, that's all. I couldn't rest with a stain on my name." You manage to stop sounding so indignant.

>>47277834
The kaiser's catchphrase is "Need a hand?"

>>47277790
I still say we should have a fuckton of fists and use them to intercept missiles and attacks to prematurely detonate them and shit.

A forcefield of fists, if you will.

>>47277894

Having 12 would absolutely halve your pool no matter how many of them you were using at once.

I'll know more once I stat the thing, alright? As it stands, it's going to be very expensive.

What kind of tripe is this? We've been only kind to all the ladies we've known. Even the ones who've tried to shoot us.

Nope.

Fool we need to keep that for Oda's merchandising. We gotta capitalize on all that sweet fan girl money.

We do have to think of a way to get half our shirt torn during the interview though. Or maybe show some pecs. Maybe have Gretchen accidentally spill water on our white shirt? Or we give her a wink as she drinks water, spraying it out on our shirt.

>>47278051
>Knock the cup out of her hand getting a couple drops on our shirt
>Guess we gotta take our shirt off, don't want to catch space pneumoniae

Fool proof

>>47278051
Have oda give coupons for Roark body pillows to capture female pilots

>>47278070
Let's keep it somewhat classy, though we should definetly use the charm when appropriate to catch her off guard and prevent her from spinning things her way.

Honestly, I sort of want to mention the fact the Navy basically left a experimental weapon in the open because one of their SOUL pilots thought the heavy weapons platform would be better for mining.

>>47278076
One day Oda's gonna to set up a merchandise stall or two at a convention, and we'll have the bad fortune of agreeing to attend and maybe sign a thing or two. Then Roarke shall know true fear, and fangirls (and some female enemy pilots we've come across) can smell fear. seriously this needs to happen somewhere down the line.

>>47278043
Damn, you're right.

I see the error of our ways, Wong.

We gotta look dapper as fuck at this interview. Will this be the first time we get our voice on air? We should get Oda a recording of us saying things like, "Good Morning. The Stars are shining today, but not as bright as you." Clemmy get's a lewd alarm version.

"You'd better come inside. Don't worry, I know we lost...and I'm sure Red Siren has plenty of Harpies ready to sodomize this poor little transport ship if I try anything funny...which I'm pretty sure would be a breach of my journalistic integrity, and honor, and such. Everyone, pick up your arms and weapons! I'll take Admiral Starwind in and start grilling him." Gretchen shoves her floating arm off on one of her friends, loops her Pumpkinseed's remaining arm around one of the Knuckle Kaiser's huge forearms, and leads you to the mech bay.

"Why yes dear, of course I do!" Rosita chuckles wickedly. It's the kind of laugh that turns boys into men, "...Although it's a little sad, I'm used to being the celebrity. Oh well, I suppose this time I'll have to settle for just being the female lead who appears relatively late in the story and steals the audience's hearts like a true heroine." She shrugs, and grabs your other arm with the Archen.

All in all, it makes getting into the ship a little difficult, three mecha won't fit abreast through the catapult.

Soon enough, though, you're seated on a comfortable couch, with Gretchen fending off curious pilot girls who want to make absolutely sure you're not injured or bruised anywhere, or tell you that they weren't hurt by you during the battle as a pretext for starting a conversation. Dewy, emotion-filled eyes are everywhere.

"So! Let's roll the camera!" Gretchen nods at one of the few men on the ship, who's glaring at you jealously.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to tonight's edition of QTPI News! As always, I'm your lovely host, Gretchen Colburn. We have a special surprise for you tonight. On my way to California Station for a few human interest pieces about our brave troops and the ever popular Maximum Thrusters review of Bahamutcorp's latest machine, I met some interesting guests! That's right, I've been kidnapped by Red Siren and Roarke Starwind!"

not that anon, but I think the best way is to combine our cool and hit her when she tries invasive or antagonizing questions. Tease when possible, joke about things but also be truthful when need be. If they say our former captain was a skirt chaser go with something like "He always had a way with women."

The camera pans over to you and Red Siren, sitting on the couch. The pirate idol squeezes your hand encouragingly and gives you a smile.

The screen behind Gretchen flashes to show the explosion from her missile hitting the Knuckle Kaiser, although it doesn't show where it hit. "Look at this guy, I managed to get a hit on him! Woohoo! It was a little scary, though." In front of the cameras, she's one big cheerful smile, "I have to admit, this is almost as exciting as it is scary, I've always wanted an exclusive interview with Siren herself...and now I've got the Black Ogre's pilot here too! Admiral Roarke Starwind, he's really real, folks!" She leans over and pinches your arm a little, "Not dead or anything!" Cute wink at the camera!

Then she makes a serious face, "But I know what you all want to know, and if I don't ask straightaway my inbox will get more hatemail than the person who invented speed limits. Admiral...can...can I call you Roarke? Anyway, big guy, tell me about Suleiman 1. You're implicated in something pretty serious there, aren't you?" She frowns, resting her cheek on one of her palms.

>[What say? This is, obviously, important...so take your time, I'm giving you twenty minutes minimum to work it out.]

I went to Suleman because I heard the Green Skulls were pushing around hard working colonists.
