Okay, okay so apparently they are trying to festive or something. And to be honest, I'm complaining about the gift though I think I'm already being typecast.

[He held up what was clearly a pink horse plushie though the horse was fluffier... a glownie. You visit a herd of miniature glowing horses a couple of times and suddenly even the world is thinking you are THAT guy]

But I could really do without the glitter. Don't they realize how hard this is going to be with a robotic arm?

[He sighed]

Never going to get this out.

Comments

[lionunchained]

Not a clue. I hope only a few days, but even then that's too long for this. It was amusing for the first ten minutes. Now it's old.

[on_repeat]

[He does have to laugh a bit here.]

It got old the second I put my helmet on. Guess we'll just have to tough it out until then.

So rarely get to use this icon

[lionunchained]

Oh geez yeah. I could see that. Dumping a bunch of glitter on your head. Unfortunately not many options.

It's perfect

[on_repeat]

I was afraid of that. Eh, I'll live. Good future point of reference, though: check your kit thoroughly before you put it on.

[lionunchained]

Yeah. Unfortunately, sometimes that is how you learn good lessons, by something happening that you wish hadn't happened.

[Despite the glittery pause, Echo shifts to a more thoughtful tone.]

Sounds like you have plenty of experience in that department.

[lionunchained]

Yeah, I feel like I've seen that more times than most. Then again, I was the leader of a group of teenagers so that might have had something to do with it.

I'm Shiro.

[on_repeat]

ARC-1409. I go by Echo.

No one listens to the calls you make?

[lionunchained]

Nice to meet you, Echo.

Well, most of my team aren't here. Back home, they did listen. But still, sometimes teenagers have their own ideas of how to handle things.

[on_repeat]

Nice to meet you, too, Shiro.

Ah. That kind of mindset I'm familiar with. [He chuckles.] My brothers and I used to be like that during training. I wouldn't worry about it too much, though. Everyone eventually shapes up, and it's good you still have most of their attention.

[lionunchained]

Yeah. They did start out being rather disorganized but they got their act together and we were quite a team. I guess that's the way it always is until a team gets used to working together.

[on_repeat]

Usually. Especially when they have strong personalities clashing against each other. I sometimes wonder if that's the case here now that we're all away from what we're used to doing.

[lionunchained]

I suspect there will likely be some of that. Especially if there are too many leaders and not enough people willing to follow.

[on_repeat]

Maybe the Agrii should've taken that into account. Here's hoping we're able to get pass some of those hurdles, then.

[lionunchained]

[He chuckled] Yeah. A lot of leaders sounds good in theory, but there is also the problem that they don't like being told what to do. Really though, a good leader should also be willing to take orders too. I hope that we are as well.

[on_repeat]

Right? When push comes to shove, we'll compromise over who leads and who follows.

That being said, if you or anyone else ever needs help with anything, I'm all for lending a hand.

[lionunchained]

Yeah, hopefully, others will compromise as well.

Sounds good. I'll let you know. And you can let me know as well if you need anything.

[on_repeat]

Alright. See you around, Shiro.
