Fancy meeting you here, [ST:playername ].[ST:wait ] |

|
tev001493_MSG0002 |
As you can see, I was just having my gun serviced.[ST:wait ] |

I've been working with her since we were back[ST:n ]on Earth. She knows exactly what I want,[ST:n ]and always tunes it to perfection.[ST:wait ] |

|
tev001493_MSG0004 |
How about you, [ST:playername ]?[ST:n ]How do you keep your weapons maintained?[ST:wait ] |

Shrug |

|
tev001493_SEL0011 |
Tell Irina that you don't really perform maintenance. |
7 |
|
tev001493_JNK0020 |
Boast |
8 |
|
tev001493_SEL0021 |
Brag about your rigorous and amazing[ST:n ]personalized maintenance routine. |
9 |
|
tev001493_MSG0005 |
What, ever?! Wow. You must like living on the edge.[ST:wait ] |
10 |
|
tev001493_MSG0006 |
But don't you understand that if you don't keep your[ST:n ]equipment optimized at all times, something is certain[ST:n ]to go horribly, horribly wrong?[ST:wait ] |

|
tev001493_MSG0007 |
Armor is one thing—that just hurts you if it fails.[ST:n ]But weapons protect the lives of friends and comrades.[ST:wait ] |
12 |
|
tev001493_MSG0008 |
And if you value them, you need to do everything[ST:n ]possible to protect them.[ST:wait ] |
13 |
|
tev001493_MSG0009 |
Although if I had to guess, I'd say that Lin probably[ST:n ]cleans and maintains your weapon while you're asleep.[ST:wait ] |
14 |
|
tev001493_MSG0010 |
That girl is always looking out for her friends.[ST:n ]Meanwhile, you're so careless you haven't even noticed![ST:wait ] |
15 |
|
tev001493_MSG0011 |
Then you're the sort of [ST:Gender p1=man p2=woman ]people can count on.[ST:n ]No wonder the colonel took you under her wing.[ST:wait ] |

17 |
|
tev001493_MSG0013 |
If you don't keep them in perfect condition, you might[ST:n ]not be able to give your all when your team needs you.[ST:wait ] |
18 |
|
tev001493_MSG0014 |
Have you heard of a man named Mondo, by the way?[ST:wait ] |
19 |
|
tev001493_JNK0030 |
Affirm |
20 |
|
tev001493_SEL0031 |
Claim to know all about Mondo. |

Deny |
22 |
|
tev001493_SEL0041 |
Say you don't recognize the name. |
23 |
|
tev001493_MSG0015 |
Heh. You guys must have met, then.[ST:wait ] |
24 |
|
tev001493_MSG0016 |
He's from Lao's team. Real low-key guy.[ST:wait ] |
25 |
|
tev001493_MSG0017 |
Give Mondo a gun you want serviced,[ST:n ]and he'll do you better than any mechanic in New LA.[ST:wait ] |
26 |
|
tev001493_MSG0018 |
Gwin was so impressed, he actually asked to be[ST:n ]Mondo's apprentice.[ST:wait ] |
27 |
|
tev001493_MSG0019 |
So lately, whenever Gwin has a free moment,[ST:n ]he disassembles his weapon and gets to work.[ST:wait ] |
28 |
|
tev001493_MSG0020 |
I'm sure it's great practice, but...[ST:n ]Well, it's starting to get weird.[ST:wait ] |
29 |
|
tev001493_MSG0021 |
Like, when he's done? He always spends a few[ST:n ]moments stroking it with the tips of his fingers.[ST:wait ] |
30 |
|
tev001493_MSG0022 |
And then—I kid you not—he LICKS it![ST:n ]It's maybe the most revolting thing I've ever seen.[ST:wait ] |
31 |
|
tev001493_MSG0023 |
So next time you run into Gwin, tell him not to be[ST:n ]such a creep-o, all right?[ST:wait ] |
32 |
|
tev001493_MSG0024 |
Give Mondo a gun you want serviced, and he'll do you[ST:n ]better than any mechanic in New LA.[ST:wait ] |
33 |
|
tev001493_MSG0025 |
Gwin actually became his apprentice and was starting[ST:n ]to learn his secrets.[ST:wait ] |
34 |
|
tev001493_MSG0026 |
But I guess Mondo won't be able to teach Gwin[ST:n ]anything again.[ST:wait ] |
35 |
|
tev001493_MSG0027 |
To think that so skilled a BLADE could be brought[ST:n ]down like that...[ST:wait ] |
36 |
|
tev001493_MSG0028 |
Even when your weapons are in pristine condition,[ST:n ]I guess we all eventually face a threat that's just too[ST:n ]big to handle.[ST:wait ] |
37 |
|
tev001493_MSG0029 |
When my time comes, I don't want to be regretting[ST:n ]that I cut corners prepping my gear.[ST:wait ] |
38 |
|
tev001493_MSG0030 |
You can't ignore the little things.[ST:wait ] |
39 |
|
tev001493_MSG0031 |
Sometimes the little things are all that keep us BLADEs[ST:n ]alive out there.[ST:wait ] |
