Hello Purvis:
Hangar

"I'd would like to ask for your help in improving our Nachtmare," says Shizuha, inclining her head slightly toward Alice. "Rumia had a rather interesting idea for improving it, and it would fall into your realm of specialty."

Alice, for her part, can not help but notice a few things about Shizuha. There is a faint, dusty odor about her, bringing to mind forest walks and tumbling leaves. A slight chill seems to hang in the air around her, in defiance of the fiery colors she wears, but Alice cannot quite tell if it's truly colder or just an impression. Something about the way that that Shizuha pronounces her k's seems off, sounding slightly like the crackle of fall leaves being trod upon. Most striking are her eyes. In most people's eyes, one can see light reflected; sometimes even one's reflection. But in Shizuha's eyes, there is none of that. Instead, she can see what seems to be the reflections of bare trees swaying in the wind, as though they were standing in an autumnal forest. She has a feeling that if she were to look into those eyes long enough, she could see an entire wilderness.

Shizuha gestures toward Bucket Force, still looking rather dinged up from its adventure in the core. "What we would like to do is tie a particular color to each of Bucket Force's shapes. Of course, we would need your skills, or at least your instructions, to perform this. We'd like to be a permanent effect as well, I don't know how hard that would be for you."

She gives a self depreciating smile. "Seven color magic is scarcely my realm of specialty, you understand; I am familiar with only a couple of them myself."

"So," Alice began after hearing Shizuha's request, " You want me to color code you Nachtmare's forms? That shouldn't be too hard." Alice summoned the dolls towards the Bucket Force. "I just need you to shift the Nachtmare to the other forms so I can get the job done. That and what color you want it. Other than that, it shouldn't be that hard."

"I would have to gather up Kisume and Rumia first," says Shizuha. "Heavens know what they've gotten themselves into. Do you have a time that would be good for you?"

Elsewhere in the Amaterasu

Anthony, idly checking his box of goodies, will note that three of the DVD cases are missing.

"You will find out in due time," Sariel said in her soft voice. "I duly apologize if I offend you for my response."

Rem had been discussing the measurements of the Ophelia with Kikuri for a long time. Not much could really be discerned from their discussion if you were an outlooker. But this was pretty serious.

Rem nodded approvingly. "I see. We just need to make it smaller."

Kikuri's response was grim though. "The smaller it is, the lesser the output of the actual product. The byproduct is a mediocre weapon that barely fits. We need to find a stronger source of energy. We need to amplify miss Lorelei before any actual work is done."

"I understand."

"Yes... We need intel. Now."

"Maybe in our next skirmish we can gather information on an energy source."

"Well, I can do at any time, granted Marisa doesn't return with a wrecked Nachtmare frame again..."

Asteroid field

"Hmm... somethings seems off about this right now." Forte said as the Nightmare frame seemed slower to respond. The controls were not as fluid as they originally were.

"Hell if I know." as Marisa fiddled with buttons in an attempt to make the machine move smoother. She's going to have to talk to Alice about that, as well as the funky IFF that was still there.

Deep in the asteroid belt, engine cores fired up, wary of new prey...
