>>5132624>>5132638Almost stuttering you began to put out words for the unit of girls to digest. The dinosaur in your pocket, surely proud. "I am glad to meet you all, it's a pleasure. Hopefully we can work well together in the future, that is assuming we are all still here after the linking process…" Castilla watches you calmly, despite you trying to avoid her eye she keeps looking into your own. With a soft clap, one conveying energy and excitement you continue. "But now that we are done with introductions, how about we get to know each other a little better huh?" The crowd of girls didn't seem too interested, but you still had Castilla's attention and none attempted to have their own discussion or interrupt you.
It was a breath of fresh air. "So, any idea what Phobos units you will all be linking with? From my own investigation the current room rally so far sits at two Emperor-class prospects and two Prince-class." Castilla's eye flutters at the mention of an Emperor class. Flicking over the other units you had already talked to. "I see. Well all of my Specialists will be attempting the link with Knight-class Phobos units. Brigitta and I shall be Prince-class prospects. Who are the Emperor-class pilots, this is all news to me." She turned to the others, gesturing for you to point out whom. The other girls scooted forward, also trying to get a look. You notice their eyes and faces not so reserved at the revelation.
Lucy and Brigitta share a whisper. But you couldn't make anything out. "It seems like everyone has been eager to stay silent. The Eta candidate Katerina is one and I am the other." You said flatly, looking at the rude girl as she continued to read. She didn't flick you off, so she was probably really reading. The heads pivoted on a swivel, Callista opening and closing her mouth a few times before any words actually escaped. You interrupted her before she could say anything. "Sergeant, to respond to your statement from earlier. A project's success rate seems to depend on what was the final objective. Perhaps Alpha wanted the largest numbers of pilot candidates to be made, by lowering the standard of requirement. And I can assure you Theta and Eta did not. Of course, both projects seem to be useful, but I'm sure the results are yet to be tallied." The pilot ran a hand through her silver hair, long fingers cutting groves through the well tended mane.
