[Video, after the Dark Hour is over tonight]

[gaveupfeeling]

It should be over now.

I suggest that the next full moon event involve candy and sparkles.

Go on...

[gaveupfeeling]

I have no method of forcing the Dark Hour to do anything, of course. But rainbows in the middle of the night would be interesting and possibly lighthearted.

[papermache]

Anything happy and sparkly, then. That works.

[gaveupfeeling]

Are you planning to make something happen?

[papermache]

Now that is a well-guarded secret.

[gaveupfeeling]

I see.

[papermache]

You'll know when something happens anyway.

[gaveupfeeling]

Good luck.

[papermache]

Always.

[gaveupfeeling]

What is your name?

[papermache]

Mila Kawena, mechanical engineer. Got here just in time for the cluster, but my Persona can only scan enemies. You?

[gaveupfeeling]

Ledah Rozwelli, Grim Angel. I've been here since July.

[papermache]

Sounds like something world-specific. Not that I should talk, no one here knows what a Black River is.

[gaveupfeeling]

A river that runs black, I'd assume.

[papermache]

Sadly not. They're things that rise up out of the water and try to kill you on a pretty much regular basis.

[gaveupfeeling]

I see.

[papermache]

This place is pretty hard to get used to, but eh. If it works.

[gaveupfeeling]

You've traded one regular foe for another.

[papermache]

And the same position, it looks like.

[gaveupfeeling]

Being able to detect the enemy is important.

[papermache]

Yeah, and I know I can't fight, much as it sucks.

[gaveupfeeling]

Good. There's no sense in risking yourself foolishly.

[papermache]

There's always sense in that, but I got stuff I can do. Even if none of us have machines.

[gaveupfeeling]

What work do you do?

[papermache]

Back home? Design, occasional building and repairs, and hanging back and handing out advice when the pilots are out fighting.
