[[For MONTHS now... yes, months... Simon has been sulking. It's obvious what he's sulking about; Kamina. However, he has the strangest means of doing so. Every once in a while, he comes out of his little hidey hole off in some odd corner of the ship to get a rock, or a slab of metal. While doing so, he drags his feet and has his goggles pulled down over his eyes, shutting out the rest of the world.]]

(2)
[[And this is the result of you stalking him. Dozens upon dozens of statues and busts of Kamina, strewn about. Carved from stone, bent from metal... he's spending a disturbing amount of time just sitting here, moping and making more figurines of his bro.

(3)
[[Once in a blue moon, Simon comes out of his funk... FOR A RAMPAGE! Those on-and-off incidents where the Chalice is attacked by many offscreen foes, Simon does his part, by smashing and drilling through everything in a blind rampage.

And typically such rampages come at a disregard for his own well being, and a slightly less concern for the well-being of others... especially those in his way.]]

The elemental examined the statue with a practiced eye, removing a loupe from his field uniform to peer at it more closely.

"Hmm, a strange fusion of primitive methodology and modern subject. Perhaps some degenerate barbarian tribe made this, for it is clearly of recent vintage..."

"Simon!" Matthew calls out over the comm, providing covering fire with a volley of lasers! "Slow your advance! You are over-extending yourself!"

Delta-3, talk to me! Delta-3, do you copy!? Delta-3!? Patrick!!!

[Damnit, Simon's lost his mind, and now Patrick's been knocked out of the sky because of goddamn minovsky explosion reactions rocking the battle field due to the rampant destruction caused by the digger. This AFTER the A-LAWS decide to turn tail after their success/failure.]

Stop! The battle's already won! [Or... not. Regardless, the mooks are in full retreat, and they were pariahs of the Federation as it was.] You don't have to fight anymore! Enough!!

There's a faint grinding of metal on rock as Simon's working on yet another bust of Bro.

"He wasn't a barbarian..."

"No! I'm going to make sure we never lose anyone, ever again!" And yet another Giga Drill Break to some mobile suit's grill.

No! Not until they're all done! Not until they can't hurt anything else!

When in doubt, ask questions. That was an investigator's first rule. He closed the loupe and put it back in his pocket.

"Who was he?"

He began loosening the cowl of his field uniform. People tended to talk more easily to someone with a face they could see, he'd found.

Simon! Do you hear my words? Please control yourself!

If you kill them here, that will only make them want to kill us even more, give them more reason to kill needlessly! Don't feed into the cycle like this!

[Beam rifle was shot out of his possession early in the battle, HML would be overkill at this stage, but it was all he had. He didn't want to put someone down like a they were a rabid animal, damn it!]

"He was the strongest, bravest guy I knew." he mutters.

"Bro... wasn't ever afraid... he was strong... Now that he's gone, I can't do anything without him."

It doesn't matter! I'll teach them not to mess with us!

GIGA!

DRILL!

BREAK!!

I'm going to make sure they're never coming back!

They are already retreating.

[Coztic Pilhua tries situation itself in front of Simon's path.]

What good will killing them do? Do you want to have unnecessary blood on your hands?!

The face that was revealed could have been in its 40s or 50s, with tan skin and greying hair. He could have been someone's kindly uncle if it weren't for being nearly seven feet tall and packed with muscle.

"And is that what you think a great man would want for his trothkin? To be unable to do anything without him?"

"You stravag idiot!" Matthew hollers, Alpha Striking a set of combatants moving in to flank Simon.

"If that is the oath you have sworn...then fighting with no regard for your life will cause you to break that oath!"

[That move is-!]

[#Retreating forces]

Everyone, lend me your strength... I'm gonna need it!

[*Kamille's Zeta Gundam releases a brilliant spark of Newtype energy, before firing several grenades at the Gurren Lagann, switching to Waverider mode!]

SIMON!!!!!!! [*HE'S CRASHING RIGHT AT THE NECK JUNCTION OF THE COMBINED UNIT!+]

Your logic may be sound, but, that's not going to break his despair that easily.

"He knew... I wasn't anything without him... What am I supposed to do with him gone... I couldn't even protect him..."

"I'm not going to lose!"

Except for the part where the Lagan starts spewing out liquid Spiral energy. And convulsing... and not fighting anymore.

"They took my Bro from me! They've already got plenty of unnecessary blood on their hands!"

Are you really doing to stand at the forefront of a giant drill to your face?

Those who killed your Bro are long dead! You are just projecting, turning everyone into your personal enemy!

Will you turn me into one, too?

[Yup. Standing, unflinched.]

[[Rerorerorero goes the drill... just rolling and turning.

Oh, there it goes, stopping, slowly.]]

Fine...

Thank you, Simon. I know you have a noble soul - don't tarnish it.

"Hmm..." Nikolai rubbed his grey stubble. Curiosity as a historian (by way of a tradition of duelling) made him press on. "Tell me more of him. What where his deeds? How did he approach life?" He gave the sibbie what he hoped was a reassuring smile.
