Sorry to make you wait![ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 2 |
|
qev092003_MSG0002 |
Well, you're cheerier than I expected.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 3 |
|
qev092003_MSG0003 |
I figured you'd still be moping—[ST:n ]that's why I put a rush on the next job.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 4 |
|
qev092003_MSG0004 |
Aw, that's sweet.[ST:n ]But yeah, Camber's Skell is ready for repairs.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 5 |
|
qev092003_MSG0005 |
Things are pretty much back to normal.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 6 |
|
qev092003_MSG0006 |
I hope you're not getting his hopes up.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 7 |
|
qev092003_MSG0007 |
Hmm? About what?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 8 |
|
qev092003_MSG0008 |
Anyway, back to the task at hand.[ST:n ]I have a new prototype for you folks to try out.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 9 |
|
qev092003_MSG0009 |
More ground gear?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 10 |
|
qev092003_MSG0010 |
I only work on Skell tech for maybe one in five projects.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 11 |
|
qev092003_MSG0011 |
I know you'd prefer the opposite, but them's the breaks.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 12 |
|
qev092003_MSG0012 |
I'd like you to use the prototype on the indigens I specify.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 13 |
|
qev092003_MSG0013 |
There are two sites this time.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 14 |
|
qev092003_MSG0014 |
I need to make sure it can handle[ST:n ]different weather and terrain.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 15 |
|
qev092003_MSG0015 |
Makes sense. We're on it, Tika.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 16 |
|
qev092003_MSG0016 |
My weapons won't blow up in your face.[ST:n ]So you don't have to worry as you test them.[ST:wait ] |
| 17 |
|
qev092003_MSG0017 |
This thing was amazing![ST:n ]Not that I'm surprised, coming from you.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 18 |
|
qev092003_MSG0018 |
Alexa...[ST:n ]Did you notice anything...off about the gun?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 19 |
|
qev092003_MSG0019 |
Off?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 20 |
|
qev092003_MSG0020 |
Yeah. Looking at the data,[ST:n ]it's like there's some bug or contaminant.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 21 |
|
qev092003_MSG0021 |
Well, I suppose it IS getting kind of hot.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 22 |
|
qev092003_MSG0022 |
Lose it, now![ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 23 |
|
qev092003_MSG0022_02 |
Gah![ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 24 |
|
qev092003_MSG0023 |
Geez! That was close![ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 25 |
|
qev092003_MSG0024 |
Are you all right?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 26 |
|
qev092003_MSG0025 |
Fine. I guess even you slip up sometimes, huh, Tika?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 27 |
|
qev092003_MSG0026 |
Yes, but not like that.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 28 |
|
qev092003_MSG0027 |
That was intentional. Sabotage.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 29 |
|
qev092003_MSG0028 |
Alexa...[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 30 |
|
qev092003_MSG0028_2 |
Is there anyone who'd want to see you get hurt?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 31 |
|
qev092003_JNK0010 |
Dismiss |
| 32 |
|
qev092003_SEL0011 |
Say that everyone loves Alexa. |
| 33 |
|
qev092003_JNK0020 |
Agree |
| 34 |
|
qev092003_SEL0021 |
Say that someone is clearly gunning for her. |
| 35 |
|
qev092003_MSG0029 |
Yeah![ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 36 |
|
qev092003_MSG0030 |
Though I suppose my little accident[ST:n ]won't be making me any new friends...[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 37 |
|
qev092003_MSG0031 |
No. I'm thinking someone had it out for you even before that.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 38 |
|
qev092003_MSG0032 |
No way, you guys![ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 39 |
|
qev092003_MSG0033 |
Yes way.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 40 |
|
qev092003_MSG0033_2 |
And if I'm right, they already had it out for you[ST:n ]before that failed test.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 41 |
|
qev092003_MSG0034 |
You really think it's sabotage?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 42 |
|
qev092003_MSG0035 |
Prototypes can be unstable, but we check for safety.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 43 |
|
qev092003_MSG0036 |
Especially before performing field tests.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 44 |
|
qev092003_MSG0037 |
Yet you've just been at the center of two[ST:n ]potentially fatal accidents in a row.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 45 |
|
qev092003_MSG0038 |
Fatal? You mean I almost—[ST:n ]Holy cheeseballs! That's crazy![ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 46 |
|
qev092003_MSG0039 |
But who would be doing it?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 47 |
|
qev092003_MSG0040 |
I have no clue.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 48 |
|
qev092003_MSG0041 |
That said...[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 49 |
|
qev092003_MSG0041_2 |
I may have a way of finding out.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 50 |
|
qev092003_MSG0042 |
Really?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 51 |
|
qev092003_MSG0043 |
I'll analyze what's left of the prototype.[ST:n ]That may tell me what they did to it.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 52 |
|
qev092003_MSG0044 |
Thanks, Tika. You're the best.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 53 |
|
qev092003_MSG0045 |
Just give me a minute here...[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 54 |
|
qev092003_MSG0046 |
Got it.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 55 |
|
qev092003_MSG0046_2 |
They planted a micro-explosive in the stock.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 56 |
|
qev092003_MSG0047 |
It had a radio receiver that was detonated remotely.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 57 |
|
qev092003_MSG0048 |
So if they'd hit the button while it was on my back...[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 58 |
|
qev092003_MSG0049 |
You'd be little bits on the wall.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 59 |
|
qev092003_MSG0050 |
Holy crap![ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 60 |
|
qev092003_MSG0051 |
So since they didn't kill you,[ST:n ]murder doesn't seem to be the motive.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 61 |
|
qev092003_MSG0052 |
They just want your missions to fail.[ST:n ]And by fail, I mean explode.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 62 |
|
qev092003_MSG0053 |
That's almost worse![ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 63 |
|
qev092003_MSG0054 |
Dunno about that, but it IS a clue.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 64 |
|
qev092003_MSG0055 |
To time the detonation like that,[ST:n ]they'd have to be watching you.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 65 |
|
qev092003_MSG0056 |
Ohmigosh. I have a STALKER? Seriously?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 66 |
|
qev092003_JNK0030 |
Suggest |
| 67 |
|
qev092003_SEL0031 |
Say that you should ask around[ST:n ]to see if anyone saw anything. |
| 68 |
|
qev092003_JNK0040 |
Joke |
| 69 |
|
qev092003_SEL0041 |
Say that it was you all along. |
| 70 |
|
qev092003_MSG0057 |
Good plan.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 71 |
|
qev092003_MSG0058 |
If we can find a witness,[ST:n ]we may be able to find the mystery creep.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 72 |
|
qev092003_MSG0059 |
WHAAAAT?![ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 73 |
|
qev092003_MSG0060 |
...No, wait.[ST:n ]You weren't even around for the first explosion.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 74 |
|
qev092003_MSG0061 |
Man, that is totally not funny. Not at all.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 75 |
|
qev092003_MSG0062 |
If you're done being dumb,[ST:n ]we should ask around to see if anyone saw something.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 76 |
|
qev092003_MSG0063 |
Let's hurry.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 77 |
|
qev092003_MSG0064 |
Watch Alexa's back for me, will you?[ST:n ]And maybe your own, too.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 78 |
|
qev092003_MSG0065 |
Nice data gathering, guys.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 79 |
|
qev092003_MSG0066 |
Can I have the prototype back?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 80 |
|
qev092003_MSG0067 |
Nice data gathering, guys.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 81 |
|
qev092003_MSG0068 |
Can I have the prototype back?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 82 |
|
qev092003_MSG0069 |
Hmm? What are we doing to clean up after Alexa's[ST:n ]little accident?[ST:wait ] |
| 83 |
|
qev092003_MSG0070 |
Look, just leave the mechanical stuff to the mechanics.[ST:wait ] |
| 84 |
|
qev092003_MSG0071 |
That said, it's up to you other BLADEs to do something[ST:n ]about a certain mopey test pilot.[ST:wait ] |
| 85 |
|
qev092003_MSG0072 |
I'm leaving Alexa to you.[ST:wait ] |
| 86 |
|
qev092003_MSG0073 |
I checked the security footage, but there was no sign of[ST:n ]anyone suspicious.[ST:wait ] |
| 87 |
|
qev092003_MSG0074 |
And this is awful, but it may mean it was someone[ST:n ]who belongs here. Someone who could come and go[ST:n ]without anyone questioning it.[ST:wait ] |
