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).

[Thanks to Litchi's warning, ν-13 reacts surprisingly quickly - within mere moments, she brings up her swords to block an attack by a soldier to the left of the duo. Immediately afterward, the Murakumo uses the very same swords that had just acted as a shield of sorts to launch them at the soldier...

Rather than follow this with another attack, however, she'll be using Act Parser to dash at the Third Party member, briefly disappear from sight, then reappear behind him, grabbing his wings once she does so. If Litchi happens to be looking at the girl, she may notice an uncharacteristically cruel smile very briefly appearing on her face as she begins to say a single word.]

Perish! [And with a single motion, she tears the soldier's wings off.

...Is it normal for a girl to giggle after killing someone? Because that's what she seems to be doing while the soldier's lifeless body is falling to the ground, oddly enough...]

[Yeah, that's... that's pretty worrying. Litchi can't help a small shiver that runs down her spine, hearing that giggle. She's always known exactly what the Murakumo units were, but to see a living weapon in motion really is a terrifying sight. Especially knowing the damage done in Ikaruga...

Mantenbou floats back to Litchi's side now that there aren't any soldiers approaching. Unconsciously, she keeps the staff in front of her as a possible shield.]

Y-you aren't injured at all, are you, Nu?

[She highly, highly doubts it, but she'll still ask. Doctorly instincts and all.]

[In response to the question, the Murakumo looks at Litchi briefly before responding. When she does, her tone is as flat and emotionless as always - a rather large contrast compared to the almost playful giggling just now.]

Assessing current damage levels... Damage levels negligible. [Indeed, despite the fact she's been fighting for some time now, she barely seems to be injured at all. At the very least, the girl doesn't seem to have any visible wounds right now - not even a scratch.

...It's a little strange, frankly. Shouldn't someone who's been out fighting for a while at least have sustained some injuries by now...?]

Ah... yes, I'm glad to hear it.

[Truly the power of a Murakumo indeed. Either nobody has gotten close enough, or there's some sort of healing effect going on. At least she figures she can assume that much; even Tager had a self-restoring system built in, so the Murakumo units must have as well.

Definitely, definitely glad Nu is on their side.]
