Second Princess (Video)

[The video turns on to reveal Euphemia, now in a significantly more practical outfit than her huge poofy dress, in some kind of... garage? It's concrete and dimly lit by cool fluorescent bulbs, making her pink hair take on a very odd tone.] Oh, hello everyone! I hope you're doing well.

I'm actually speaking to you all today because I could use a little, ah... assistance? When I first came here, I was told that in addition to my healing powers, I had an item from my home world as well. And that item was-- this: [She takes the camera, turning it to reveal... a humanoid robot, roughly 14-15 feet tall] The experimental Knightmare Frame, 'Lancelot.' It was being developed by my brother's research facility, and the pilot was a... very, very dear friend of mine.

But I don't know much about using it, myself. Is there anyone here who considers themselves experienced in this kind of thing?

It feels a little wasteful just to leave Lancelot gathering dust in a garage like this.

Can't say I'm a robotics expert, that title goes to a friend of mine, but I do specialize in mechanical engineering.

What were you planning for it?

ARE YOU SERIOUS?! A MECHA?!

[Nakatsu has seen Evangelion. He knows exactly what he's looking at. He just doesn't understand how they can really exist for real in any world.]

I don't know that I'd like to claim it for use, but would you be willing to let me have a look at it? One of my specialties [one of her many specialties ...] back home was to build mechabots like that one.

[Holy crap, a giant robot.]

Holy crap, a giant robot!

hoooooollly crap oh my god

please please let me try it out once, that's all i ask

[a humanoid robot roughly ten feet shorter than that shows up on the screen with a smile.]

Lancelot? Ah, "Knightmare" wouldn't be spelled with a K, would it? It seems like exactly the right kind of pun. I'm sorry, though, I'm afraid I don't know much about these from firsthand experience. Not ones that aren't autonomous, at least. Anyone actually piloting something like that strikes me as nothing short of terrifying, especially if it's armed.

It is very elegantly designed, though. Your friend and brother both have excellent taste.

Oh my Striker! A person goes in that!?

Hoooooooooly crap, I just had five million Robotech flashbacks, and I know that probably doesn't mean anything to you, but hooooooly crap please let me pilot it.

[ Totally saying this conversation happened before Ellie got pestilence.

Ellie looks really really interested. ] I've never piloted anything like that before, but I was a pilot back home. A very good one. I could look at it for you.

[ People are pretty excited about this thing, aren't they? ]

Hullo, Euphemia. You might possibly want to speak with Knock Out.

[Ryoji has nothing to contribute in a helpful manner, but he does have to say:]

That's really cool!

Was the pilot supposed to fit into that?

...hey! You have a Gear!

[...CALM DOWN, FEI. He blinks.]

I mean, not really a Gear but... it's the same concept!

[well he can't help with robots, not knowing the first thing about them, but he's certainly curious about them so... here's a large guy who sounds kind of angry?]

What the hell- you got one too? Damn! Where do people keep getting these things?

[HE WANTS TO STEAL ONE wait no that would be bad]

[ It's a little CGI girl! ]

Oh wow, that looks really advanced!

It's such a different design than similar armored suits from my world!

[ She uploads a helpful image. ]

Does it have any autonomous functionality? I imagine it must have some kind of onboard computer to aid with locomotion, maybe targeting?? What is the purpose of those wheels on its feet? Do it shift pose that allows it to take advantage of those as a form of locomotion?

That's a big son of a bitch, isn't it?

Is it safe for just anybody to use it?
