Who: All Draftees
What: Killing Third Party members and taking names
When: 7/26 - 7/31
Where: Sirry Crags
Summary: Mass-interaction for those out on the battlefield. Feel free to make team threads along with individual ones or however you wish. Action tags are fine here along with prose. For those plotting mischief, this is the place to do it.
Rating: R for the likely violence since killing will most definitely happen, but this is more for interactions during the battles.

[And early on the 26th everyone gets sent out. Thanks to Caesar's organization, most everyone has been placed in groups, even if some people plan on leaving their groups at some point. Check out this post for the details. If you haven't posted to this post and want your character on a team, please do so.]

Special note: Ignore the comments that said there would be 400, that has been retconned and we were told 1200 Third Party members from the start. Enjoy killing them off and taking names.

Special note 2: I asked Akai if any of the Third Party will be coming and dealing with their incapacitated allies, and they will. So assume that unless something is done to prevent this, those injured Third Party members may come back later healed and ready to attack again (though possibly not as effectively).

[Said with something of a smile, with confidence in her:] I know.

[There's a brief pause as he locks a Sidewinder missile into place on one of the wings.]

Litchi, I said I'd take you flying at some point if I could. You saw the other plane in the hangar back at base; it's a two-seater. It wouldn't be recreational flying, but... we may not get another chance for a very long time.

A-Are you sure? I mean, I don't want to be a bother...

[Please don't ask her to be a gunner like Goroh did. She really has no experience and being relied on for such a thing really does worry her.]

It wouldn't be. Technically it's a gunner's seat, but all Erusian pilots are trained to operate both sets of controls to be qualified to fly an aircraft like that. It won't be any more difficult than using the weapons systems in my Su-37 here.

Before the war, you couldn't get into Yellow Squadron if you couldn't do that proficiently. Erusea took its flight training very seriously. That's why we were able to attain air dominance for most of the war.

[...Until Mobius One and the ace squadrons from North Point managed to turn the war around in ISAF's favor. ...Thirteen decides not to mention that for now. There'd be plenty of time to talk about that some other time.]

...The point is, it wouldn't be a problem. And you wouldn't have to fly around all day either if you didn't want to. What do you say?

[While part of her is nervous about this -- she is absolutely certain she's never been on an airship that went anywhere near so fast -- Litchi knows she can trust Thirteen. Just looking up from the ground, it was obvious that he knew exactly what he was doing.

She gives him a small smile.]

If you're certain I won't be in the way... I'd love to. Thank you.

[A genuine smile crosses his face.]

I'm glad to hear that. I'll take you up in the air tomorrow when we come back out to fight again.

[Which is a good thing, because she's not sure how many days in a row she can siphon this much power from the Boundary and still manage to take it. She hasn't relied on it this much since... well... ever.]

It's a date, then.

Great. I'll have the Eagle prepared tonight, and I'll give you the rundown of what you should do to prepare then as well.

[And making sure that next Sidewinder gets attached...]

I think you'll have a blast.

[She's a little worried, herself, but... well, there's nothing to be afraid of, right? David's an excellent flier.]

I've never flown in anything quite so fast before, but... you're right, this should be a lot of fun.
