I am... unused to this method of communication.

But, Miss Mikata and Mister Kantai, I believe you wish to be addressed...

I have somethings of yours.

You can't see it, but I'm covering my face and wishing I hadn't known about this.

He did something ridiculous, didn't he.

[last_sundust]

He challenged me to a 'final battle', claiming I was my predecessor, K-1 Numeris-Genitor, i.e. Perfect Machine King. I thoroughly... crushed him I believe is the term?

[isdragonlady]

Seku, would I be wrong for claiming this as my breaking point?

[becomeanwarrior]

...It looks like you were more merciful than I would have been.

I guess I need to see who had this outcome in the betting pool. Niyo? Seku? What were you two betting on?

[last_sundust]

I am the sun, and the sun is equally cruel in its wrath and kind in its warmth.

[thefrozenstorm]

I wouldn't say you're wrong, but let's see first if he stupidly tries to escape to fight her again.

I'm really sorry for all of this trouble, though. One of us will go and drag him back to his home.

[isdragonlady]

No. I'm done.

I want him taken to Noriko to get fixed.

I've delayed this 8 months already.

I am *done*.

[isdragonlady]

Either Adam and Evelyn stop this or no marriage, and I *really* want to be married.

[thefrozenstorm]

Alright. I guess that's punishment enough for him to be taken to Noriko's estate, instead.

[thefrozenstorm]

If we had known this was going to happen, we would've preemptively tied him up.

[isdragonlady]

Hopefully it'll give me enough time to burn off a bit of this extra belly fat so I don't look terribly at the wedding ceremony.

[becomeanwarrior]

Oh no I'm not blaming you, let me rephrase.

If your guess was even remotely close to what transpired I am going to pay out of pocket.

[last_sundust]

Please see that it doesn't. If this continues, they will be stripped of their duty.

[thefrozenstorm]

You could always be the one to physically drag him to her, that might burn some calories, right?

[becomeanwarrior]

That's a very you answer.

...I'm still going to make fun of him for this one, though.

[thefrozenstorm]

Noted. Believe me, we're pretty annoyed, too.

[thefrozenstorm]

A little hard to make a bet like that when we knew of the result first.

[becomeanwarrior]

Yeah, I suppose you're right. A shame Adam beat us to the punch on that one.

...I guess I'll just give it to Niyo as an early wedding gift.

[last_sundust]

If there's anything I or Automekanika can do to make up for this, please do let us know.

[isdragonlady]

I'm too annoyed to bet. I honestly just want to cry.

[becomeanwarrior]

...Would a paid vacation and a bonus help.

[isdragonlady]

True.

I'm just half terrified I might turn back into a sultry secretary by being too close to her aura.

[isdragonlady]

Maybe.

But mostly I want a non-insane fiance. Or one whose insanity is being channeled to more productive ends than the Noriko and Machine King conspiracies.

[thefrozenstorm]

Hm... Okay, fair enough. I'll take the sacrifice of being in her presence, instead.

[thefrozenstorm]

"Automekanika"?
