1) *So, you're walking around the Foundry district? Well, you might catch sight of a twelve year old boy running the mechanics through their paces on a two story mecha.*

Hey, watch it! That's not just any old A.M.W.S., you know! Mess him up and you'll be sorry!



2) *Someone went and told him about the library. Now he's running around like a kid in a candy store, grabbing books off of just about every shelf in the immediate vicinity and building up a huge pile of them. Try not to trip over it...how does he plan to carry all of them, anyway?*



3) *Ahhh, the battlefield. No matter what he says, he'll always feel somewhat at home here. That's why he doesn't seem worried at all as he dashes from place to place, alternating incredibly flashy dual wielding gun techniques and firing off fireballs or laser beams.*

*Wait, are they supposed to feel bad for them? Jr. just thinks they're stupid for getting so far over their heads. Not that it matters much, since he wouldn't slow down either way.*

Alright. At this rate, we'll be back in time for a nap before dinner.

*Why yes, he did just turn so he could shoot someone behind his back.*

[Okay, it was mostly Mary that felt for them. Everyone was fighting for something and they all had ways of justifying it. Everybody wanted a better way of life, whether for themselves or others around them.

KOS-MOS had other concerns. Like protecting Midgard and, in extension, the universe she had come from.]

That is correct. I estimate that approximately forty-five percent of the enemy army has either been killed or forced out of combat already.

Let's see if we can send the rest running, huh? Erde Kaiser Sigma!

*It takes a lot of energy, but that's nothing he wasn't expecting. The giant robot's sword appears first, towering over the stunned enemies before sending out a massive shockwave that would have wiped out Jr. and KOS-MOS as well if the Ether didn't include protection for those considered allies. Erde Kaiser Sigma itself appears shortly after and swings the sword out over the battlefield, for a more directed but no less powerful shockwave, before disappearing. All this leaves Jr. breathing heavily, but still standing.*

[Nobody that was smart or had a single shred of self-preservation would remain after an attack from Erde Kaiser Sigma. KOS-MOS barely had to fire more than five shots from the arm cannon to take care of remaining units before the rest fled. They would likely report the battle to their superiors and mention both Junior and herself.

Even with time to plan a strategic counterattack, there was little they could do unless they had units that could actually challenge either of them.]

*He holstered his guns with a flourish and a grin.*

Come back in ten years and maybe you'll make me sweat.

[KOS-MOS's arm changed back, hands clenching into a fist before relaxing so that she could ensure there was no damage possible despite not being struck.]

I believe that it is now safe for us to leave the battlefield.

[books_n_battle]

And here I had a whole day cleared for this. Oh well, I gues that just means I'll have time to visit the library.

[needtobecleaned]

I am sure that you will enjoy yourself immensely while there.

[Libraries and KOS-MOS... Just wouldn't mix. She'd take all the fun out of it by reading a book in thirty seconds. Or something.]
