Pleasure.

[That word gets a raised eyebrow...]

Titan?

Damn, that sounds like a hell of a thing.

[Huge creatures. She...definitely has fought things that large, but they didn't look even remotely humanoid...]

You're a soldier, then?
erranthero: (Frak you)

[personal profile] erranthero 2019-04-05 04:57 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. Planning on joining up?

[She'd considered it, briefly.]
erranthero: (Somber)

[personal profile] erranthero 2019-04-07 07:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Probably not. It's against tradition for people in my order to join planetary defense forces. So, I really shouldn't.

[Then again, maybe she should bend that rule too.]

I figured I'd operate independently, and rely on...Moonlacing...to make Chroma.

I don't think the entire festival is about sex.

[ Look, she hasn't exactly researched the lore extensively – and she probably won't, to be honest. Mikasa's flustered look is quite a contrast compared to how she was presenting herself just a few seconds ago, and Velvet holds back a grin. ]

It's not the type of cultural attitude I'm used to, either. Discipline and sacrifice were a lot more popular where I came from.

[ No kidding. Still, Velvet takes a a few seconds to consider how to reply. It's complicated, one could say. ]

I mean the entire ruling power, although you're not completely wrong. They did use their military to strong-arm most of the populace to behave in a way they thought was proper.

[ Did. Past tense. ]
allconsumed: (♦ she was hoping for a third)

[personal profile] allconsumed 2019-04-05 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
[ Power-hungry assholes all across the universe. Yay. ]

They'd argue that whatever they did, they did for the betterment of mankind, no matter the atrocity. It turns out that ideal is pretty subjective.

[ If she sounds bitter, it's because she is. Velvet's gaze drifts over the crowd around them; they are like two dark fish out of water. ]

Hard to protect people from themselves, isn't it. I usually don't bother trying.
allconsumed: (♦ only diamond mine)

[personal profile] allconsumed 2019-04-08 11:29 am (UTC)(link)
[ In Velvet's view, that's more than respectable. She could think of a plethora of worse reasons to become a soldier, and the contradiction hardly even registers – perhaps because it resonates closely with her own priorities. ]

You know, I could use someone serious to train with while I'm here. What's your name?

Should be able to find a refill somewhere.

[Unless this society as a whole has moved on from things like that. He doubts it--at the very least, he imagines there might be someone around who can rig something up.

Not something to worry about right now, at least, not with a more immediate threat right in front of them. To emphasize that fact, he nods at the vines still writing in the street in front of the. He'll be happy to have a more in-depth discussion of his own gear once this is taken care of.

Something to be said for simplicity. You got enough juice to finish this off?

I’ll hold you to that.

[Though of course, he’ll be the first to encourage her to get out of danger if it comes down to it. Still, it seems like she knows what she’s doing, which is more than he can say for some of the other kids he’s met since arriving here.

She takes off and 76 is quick to follow on the ground, pushing himself into a sprint as he fires a trio of rockets at the nearest cluster of vines.

[76 moves smoothly for his (apparent) age, keeping up with Mikasa seemingly with little issue. He hits the vines with the rockets and she cuts through the rest of them, so all that's left for him to do is go after the stray plants.

This proves to be effective, despite the fact that it fills the alleyway with smoke and steam. For good measure, he activates his visor and lets that do the rest of the work, using it to pick off any that remain with pulse fire.

I think that's all of them.

[That he can see, anyway.]

If you've got the high ground, I can take the streets.

[His visor will pick up any movement from errant vines, and she's naturally suited to aerial vantage points, given her gear. They'll keep moving and catch up with the Moon Knights later. Still, he isn't about to part ways without knowing just who he's been dealing with, if only momentarily.]

You got a name, kid?
