"Well I have to say, I was expecting at least one Gundam, what with this being a Pegasus and all, but the Type-C is a good suit and a versatile platform. I am sure I could put one to good use until AE coughs up something with higher combat potential." She will say in response to his statement on hoping it was to her liking. "Also do love the Cannon IIs you have there, alot of nice thick armor with some artillery, a classic combo." After the display of the current lineup she would follow along for awhile until it seemed the tour was over, she was offered to stay but she shook her head, "As my people say, В гостях хорошо, а дома лучше. I think I shall go rest at home, I have a feeling that once we get started I won't have many chances to go back home. Let me know when you need me back, Comrade."

Amelie stayed fairly quiet once the three of them were in the hangar, looking at the Type Cs and Cannon IIs that had been provided. She listened in on the conversation between Faust and Anastazia. The brunette agreed that these mobile suits would be a good start for their group. And hopefully it would only be the first of what AE would provide. There was something about the what seemed like cockiness in Ana's tone. She was happy they had a confident pilot like her on their side.
She looked toward Faust when he invited them to remain on the Achilles, then back toward Ana when she decided to return to her home. Amelie smiled a little and shrugged her shoulders. "I'll stay here tonight. If I leave, I'll just end up awake all night thinking about all of this." And staying here would give her a chance to talk more with Faust and catch up with him.

"Type C Huh?" she thought for a moment having remained quiet this whole time, lagging behind Amelie though staying within sight."With a skilled pilot, these should be able to match whatever they have. Though as I recall the group we ran into had a Gundam of some sort." Sonia said gesturing up to the Type C."What do we have for weapons? We won't leave a dent in something like that without either Bazookas or Beam Rifles, and I don't mean Beam Spray guns." she said rather bluntly and matter of factly, squinting her eyes up at the Cannon II."Those could do it of course..." she rubbed her chin."Just got to keep it in place long enough..."
Sonia was here for two reasons, and the first reason was the fact that she had already been a part of AEUG, which was anti-Earth Elite. The second was Amelie had come under invitation. Though, this news that their adversaries were the Titans was new, but not surprising.

" We got plenty of beam rifles in stock. Certainly wouldn't be a problem getting you full powered one, Sonia." The former General acknowledged Lt. Lortie's concern. Indeed he'd heard all about that rampaging RX-78 model. What a time to be alive in which a Gundam of that same model was used by a tyrannical force, life certainly took unexpected turns.
" We also have GM customs if the type C doesn't do it for you." He gestured over to a couple of RGM-79N GM customs. By all intents and purposes these were GMs in name only, having performance that was more than a match for any RX-78 Gundam variant.
" This way ladies, we still have much to discuss." He lead them to an officer's only lobby, getting a bottle of nice brandy and pouring each one of them a glass. " I don't think it's worth to toast to my health. So this one goes to you, lovely young ladies." He would cheer before clinking their glasses.

Ana was about to make her arrangements for her home and her transportation when she heard about the GM Customs which caught her attention, she decided to put that on hold for now, it seemed like there was more to discuss. "I suppose I can wait a little longer before I return home." She would then follow Faust and the others to officer's lobby where she was hoping to find some vodka, but it seemed Faust had snagged some Brandy first and poured her a glass, not wishing to be rude, she took it and toasted with the rest.

Amelie glanced over at Sonia when she finally spoke up, listening to everything she said and asked. And Faust seemed prepared to answer her questions well, pointing out the other mobile suits they had as well. "Not a bad start," she said with a nod, glancing over when Ana rejoined the group and decided to stay with them for a while longer.
The brunette remained with the group as they headed toward the officer's lobby, taking a glass of brandy from Faust when he held one out for her after pouring one out. "I'll toast to that," Amelie said with a grin before taking a drink. Right after that drink, she could certainly feel the effects of the liquor she'd been drinking all through the night. She had never been very good at holding her liquor, but the food she'd been eating at the 'party' they'd been invited to had been able to hold it off. But now, she didn't have anything to help her. Amelie sat down as the conversation continued, taking another drink before setting her glass down. The next time someone seemed to turn their attention to her, they would find the brunette asleep with her head down, breathing slowly.

Sonia was rather satisfied with the reply, finding what was said at the very least to be adequate."Full powered Beam Rifles and GM Customs should certainly do that. Especially in the hands of experienced pilots." she said letting a faint hint of a smirk show."Seems you have the gear available to back us up." she said as she glanced up at thhe GM Type C once more before looking back to the Former General as he requested that they follow.
As the Brandy was poured she would take her glass eagerly, loving a good drink. With a nod of her head she raised her glass in the toast, before drinking its contents. Letting out a content sigh she smiled greatly after that first sip. It wasn't too long before she noticed that Amelie had seemingly fallen asleep."Can't hold your drink Ma'am?" she asked quietly and jokingly.

" I should have brought some salted peanuts or pretzels." Faust realized too late he didn't have any snacks at hand to keep Amelie from getting too drunk. There was no reason to disturb her slumber so Faust decided to leave her there to sleep it off. He would have to write her a note later with the directions to the room she would be occupying on board the Achilles.
" Like I said before these mobile suits are our stop gaps until Anaheim rolls out the new models they are currently developing. Expect brand new models sometime next year but they might give us the first batches to conduct combat tests." He had seen the blue prints of these new models but getting them built and ready would take time. He would share these schematics with Sonia and Anna using a digital notepad.
The project name on top of the diagram was YMS-099 dubbed "The Gamma Gundam".

Sonia was taking her time with drinking, savoring it as she went, not getting hammered like Amelie."Stop gaps eh? Fair enough I suppose." she said taking a light sip of her drink."Also it is awfully kind of them to give us dibs on the newer mobile suits." she pointed out before being shown the schematics."Gamma... Gundam..." she said curiously looking it over."Looks like a mono eye design... but overall, I dont believe I have ever seen anything like that before." she said with a pause."How far along is it?"
---
Sometime after the events of Blast Out when the Zeon Remnants escaped Granada Sig would now find imself with the others in Von Braun city
. He curiously looked up at the back of the Guard Leading them through the Casino. They were plain clothed, but their ear piece and sun glasses gave them away as a guard. He was cautiously glancing around as they went. They were still on the moon, and the Titans no doubt know they didn't leave orbit. But for the moment at least, they were safe in this Casino. He wasn't all up on the details unfortunately.

" I don't have all the details yet. I would assume they would send them to us as soon as they're ready for combat tests." Faust answered rather optimistically. Afterwards an aide came to inform him that more guests had arrived.
" Hmm it seems we're getting a few more pilots." The man would muse, wondering what kind of people they were sending them now.
---
Clara had arrived alongside with Sig and Cornelius after a harrowing escape from the Titan's clutches. It had been such a long night she'd taken a seat at the closest bar, ordering the stiffest drink on the list which she downed in one gulp. The blond would grimace afterwards, finding solace in the numbing effect the alcohol brought all over her mouth.
The next morning they would be taken to the Achilles still anchored to that top secret dock exclusive for AE ships. Clara felt weird when they told her she was going to be assigned to this ship, never been inside a Federation type assault carrier.

Amelie had woken up at some point in the middle of the night, still feeling fairly drunk after her unexpected nap. "Mh?" she looked around, everything feeling quite foggy, before she noticed a piece of paper with her name on it. She was able to follow the directions that had left for her and eventually made her way to her room. Once she arrived, the brunette only bothered taking her shoes off before she flopped onto her bed, pulling the blanket up over herself before passing back out.
She was certainly regretting how much she'd had to drink once she woke up the next morning. She remained curled up in her bed for a while, unsuccessfully trying to ignore the headache she had. But she eventually staggered out of bed, getting herself cleaned up and as presentable as she could. But it was likely easy for anyone to tell she was still feeling the effects of her drinking. As the young woman made her way through the Achilles, she saw a group of three being led through the ship. But once they were closer, there was one person she recognized instantly. "...Welcome aboard the Achilles," she said to the group, nodding her head a little as she tried to hide her hangover.

Ana looks over the design of the Gamma Gundam, "Well it is certainly interesting, didn't think I'd see a Mono-eye Gundam, I guess all those Zeon engineers who went to AE have had some say in these things. So while we are waiting on those, how hard would it be to get a model that has already existed for a little a bit? I really miss my old suit, and it would likely be better than what we have in the hanger so far." She would lean over and show everyone some old pics from her data pad she kept in her purse, she scrolled for it briefly before showing a picture of her in a hanger with a beaming smile in front of newly received Full Armor Gunner Gundam, already painted her signature black with red stars on the shoulders. "I imagine I could pilot it even better with this new eye of mine", she would say as she lifted up her eyepatch revealing her ocular implant, while from afar it might look normal, at this distance you can see how unnatural it looks, while it matches up well with her other eye the fact that it has lenses inside swirling a bit as they adjust, zooming in and zooming out and relaying complex information to Anastasia before she slips the patch back on.

Sig remained quiet, glancing around the ship as they entered it and were shown it from the inside. Their previous ship, the one they had made it here with was a liability. It's make meant that not just the Titan's but also the Federation would gun for them at every corner. Though still, a part of him was disappointed to see it go, for it had been a part of his life for some time. This ship, the Achilles a Pegasus II assault carrier was clearly Federation in origin and design. He gently after a moment of making sure no one was looking his way would run his hand along the wall. Feeling the cool touch of the paneling before pulling back and glancing up ahead. His eyes catching a familiar face that was flanked by yet another. Amelie and Sonia.
Sonia had joined Amelie aboard the vessel almost as soon as she had arrived. Apparently having gotten up some time prior. Having done the rounds and what not she was surprised to see whom had arrived. A suspicious glance going across them as Amelie greeted them. Sig tilted his head just a little before looking to the rest of the Zeon remnants, and then back to Amelie. What was she doing here?

" I'll see what I can do about that." Faust rubbed his chin in contemplation, taking a notice of the unique RX-78 variant Anaztasia was requesting for herself. He would have to get in contact with the Anaheim people to see if they had said model in their current inventory. Now that everyone was up to speed the meeting was adjourned and everyone was free to go to their assign bunks to take a much needed shut eye. --- Earlier next morning ... Clara was dressed in civillian clothing but she went ahead and saluted Sonia and Amelie, figuring they were this ship staff officers. While their ranks would be more or less on par she still wanted to be respectful to these two. " Captain Clara Marques of the former principality of Zeon space forces. These two men are part of my staff and my most trusted pilots. If there's anything you need feel free to let us know. We've come to fight alongside you." Since their mobile suits had been quite badly damaged it would be neccesary to re-equip them with what was currently on board. Among the few GM models stood out a pair of High mobility Galbaldy Betas manufactured by the Federation. |

Cornelius had found himself pulled along by chance and felt as if his story had officially lost the plot somewhere. After years of running from the federation and hiding under any rock that could hide a starship standing around in the heart of a pegasus class felt like standing in the middle of the lion’s den covered in sheep’s blood. He was the superstitious type so it wasn’t the crew that bothered him but the ship itself felt like bad luck.
The Dolmel he had been using had been beaten rather impressively but fortunately his Dom had been more or less pristine thanks to him ‘borrowing’ the other mobile suit. He looked at the pair of Gabaldy Betas with minor skepticism before turning his attention towards the pair of women his captain had saluted and raised two fingers to his forehead in an informal salute, not really ready to go into another chain of command so easily.
