Two in one testrun for SRWU

[armowrpiercing]

1. Combat! A Large, four-legged machine with a huge gun on its left arm had just blew up an enemy suit.

Some of the enemies are starting to run away. Battle might still rage on somewhere else.



"Those footsoldiers know nothing about proper battlefield conduct. It saddens me that we have to fight them. Just leave them be."



"Agreed! There is no glory in fighting an opponent who has his back turned and is more concerned with fleeing than the heat of battle. Admittedly, allowing them to leave may bring us greater challenges should they return with reinforcements in hopes of avenging their loss!"


2. Apparently, following some surprise battlefield explosion, the large four-legged machine is now stuck upside down between buildings. It moves its limbs uselessly.



"Ahem. This is not what it looks like."



"We most certainly did not have out machine crash and it is most certainly not trapped at all. In fact we merely choose to remain here for the time being simply because we wish to bask in the aftermath of our victory."


3. Post Combat! The machine you saw previously is now helping cleaning the battlefield from rubbles.



"This hardly a task becoming for a gentleman..."



"I was born for the thrill of the hunt and the rush of combat! There are truly no words I can use to describe how I feel at this moment. However if I did have them they would be of tremendous dissapointment and shame."

Not again.

[sang_av_helten]

If this resembles an accident that may have befallen a different pilot I must claim that this is not the case!

[There's some muffled noises on the other end of the line.]

Archie, I think that the Mode-Change function may have been jammed. Possibly an obstruction. Can you get any movement on your side of the controls?

[It was very clear he was trying to whisper. And failed. Badly.]

[armowrpiercing]

What do you mean by not again? Surely you're not insinuating that this has happened to us before, my lady?

*The mech's limbs circle around, as if it's trying to wiggle itself out*

Cough. You're talking too loud, partner. But could you show off more of the graceful full range movement of our machine to our audience? Just because we want it of course, not to free ourselves from any kind of entrapment.

[zenbuzenbuzenbu]

There's something about animal-shaped mecha that makes them easy to tip over, you know? Just use a humanoid form already.

Want me to blow up the obstructions?

[sang_av_helten]

Blow it up? Some situations demand delicacy and precision... other situations one may as well simply act recklessly and on instinct as nature demands. I approve!

[armowrpiercing]

Blow up the obstructions? Surely we can do something without relying on such crude...

*One of the limbs knocked down a house in one of its expressive movements.*

I meant to do that. Okay, let's blow up the obstructions.

[zenbuzenbuzenbu]

That's more like it! It's not that anyone lives here anyway!

[Chris grabs for her oversized guns and deploys the missile launchers!]

You better hold it tight in there!

[sang_av_helten]

Hah! My grip is unbreakable, this will not even rattle me.

[Someone else is also picking up smaller bits of rubble...as punishment.]

You're telling me. This isn't something a Goddess should be doing either...!

[Whine.]

...I'm supposed to be playin' games, claimin' Shares and eatin' pudding. Even regular work ain't this bad.

[sang_av_helten]

Our talents are being wasted here. I propose that we bring our discontent upon the ones who have placed this task on us and have them select more fitting hands to take care of this matter!

[The voice sounded most indignant indeed.]

[alwaysmyturn]

Weeeelll...

I don't know how it is with you guys, but it's not so easy for me.

[armowrpiercing]

But you said you are a goddess, my lady. Surely you can ask for some footmen or some peasants to replace us in doing this duty?

[alwaysmyturn]

If my followers were around, that'd be the first thing I'd do!

I'd go and get them, but the person who sent me here for this isn't so easy to convince.

Something about 'banning him from an MMO'.

THEN LEARN TO BE CAREFUL WITH THOSE SWIPES OF YOURS AND NEXT TIME YOU WON'T HAVE TO PICK UP THE PIECES OF THE SHIT YOU BROKE AFTERWARDS, SIR COLLATERALLINGTON.

IN THE MEANTIME, SHUT YOUR TRAP AND WORK.

Hear, hear. That's what I always say, my good sir, precision is king. Sadly my partner here has different thought about it.

[sang_av_helten]

Excuse me?! In case you happen to forget, I managed to save our lives several times and I have been perfectly precise at those times!

[Lies, a gigantic chainsaw is not precision at all.]
