Kicking the Cat

After Ves and Venerable Brutus had their private moment, they moved to the mech workshop along with Gloriana and Ranya.

It turned out that Gloriana tweaked and updated the Star Dancer's design in the last couple of weeks. Because of her limited involvement in the design of her brother's expert mech, she could only propose some minor improvements.

Gloriana brought her brother to a projection of the Star Dancer's design and enthusiastically showed off some of her latest efforts. She improved considerably when she worked alongside Ves, so it wasn't a surprise for her to be able to correct some of her shortcomings in her existing products.

Normally, a mech designer would not bother to update a mech design. Any revisions they wanted to do could wait until they comprehensively combined all of the corrections as well as tech upgrades in another revision.
