Agniwolf1yrCommentedswauta!
Aurelia's tears dried up remarkably quickly after that. She even giggled and clapped at the prospect of enjoying another 'family outing'!- Agniwolf1yrCommented
taon is not a artillery especialist he was forced into piloting artillery mechs due to ves never expanding the yvlainian mech roost, he was distinctively trained to be a hero pilot from his very introduction to the story
However, Ves would have liked it if Commander Taon broke through because that would mean that the Larkinson Clan would gain its first expert pilot that specialized in heavy artillery mechs! - Agniwolf1yrCommented
id say calabast
Grants complete understanding of how to master the art of the Shadow Dance Dagger Style, a combination fighting style that combines knifemanship, silent fighting, assassination and exploitation of shadow and darkness. The Shadow Dance Dagger Style can only be fully practiced by talented individuals who are limber, are implanted by specific augmentations and have developed an affinity for shadow or darkness. This enlightenment fruit allows an individual to ignore these conditions. - Agniwolf1yrCommented
lots of unending alloy and worclaw cristals

problem here is that they themselves are not "normal kids" theya re essentially roayalty engineered to take clan matters in their hands as soon as they are able to write their names, they need to learn those things from their cribs, if anything it just reinforces the very known idea that it sucks to be born with the responsability to lead others
"I already told you that it is bad for their development that they can only get along with other Larkinsons most of the time! They need to spend more time with peers from other organizations! Not only will they learn to socialize with their equals, they can also forge new friendships with different groups! We'll throw all of this away if you take our children out of the planet that they have grown up on for all of their lives!" - Agniwolf1yrCommented
"cool aliens"
"Don't listen to what your mother is telling you. Space isn't scary and ships aren't cold and dark. They are homes just like this little castle that you have built. The only differences are that they look a lot more cylindrical and that they can move around. Wouldn't it be cool to live in a home that can move from one place to the other? There is an entire cosmos out there, Marvaine. There are lots of cool aliens and even cooler tech that we can encounter once we begin our travels. It will be just like that cartoon about that funny captain that is gallivanting across unknown galaxies!" - Agniwolf1yrReplied to Esther_Merriken
no no, gloriana is right on this one, insular communities have a really big problem dealing with external factors due to the lack of understanding about outsider considerations, not to mention dealing with the concept of malice if everyone you communicate with your whole life is undeniably "trustworty" it leaves ppl unnaware of evils they may end up being scammed for, there are plenty example of insular communities ending up as gullible suckers because of their lack of external relationships iterations

cue transhumanist finally being able to make humans as powerful as mechs
Calabast grinned. "Tell me, Ves. Do you think mechs will last forever? Will they remain strong enough for you to continue to rely on them, or will they be phased out by other, more superior weapons in the future?" - Agniwolf1yrCommented
this one here certainly needed a folowing paragraph of calabast looking amused and raising a eyebrow
Ves snorted. "Do I look like a combat junkie who is eager to hop into a cockpit and beat up our opponents with a mech? Let's leave the violence to those that are more suited for the job." - Agniwolf1yrCommented
quite a amusing comparison wen a marskman needs a steady hand as much as a surgeon needs it, the same with the situational awareness of someone who does self defense classes and both cases work very well with increased discipline and concentration which are also very useful for surgeon doctors
However, if the doctor spent much time on taking self-defense classes and practicing his marksmanship, it was unlikely that he would do any better in his actual job. - Agniwolf1yrCommented
quite the opposite imo, mechs are a bigger translation of man and beast prowess, its why ketis makes better swordsmen mechs than the vast majotiry she knows the ins and outs of swordplay and translate it to a bigger scale called mech and im sure the same applies to every soldier proffession if they were able to juggle mech design along with it
However, the fact that this was probably the most useless upgrade track in the current circumstances also weighed heavily on him. The redundant nature of the benefits offered by the sixth upgrade track heavily irked his sensibilities as a mech designer. - Agniwolf1yrReplied to THBC
a pity, i liked the clang interactions with the sink

i mean, he had gathered the entire expedition to the rodg in less than 2 years, also got about 20 times the value back in a single expedition, 15 years seems fine for a havoc chaser like ves
With a maximum time limit of 15 years, it sounded impossible for him to earn so many merits. - Agniwolf1yrReplied to WarStrider72
the ironic part is that canonically it is not bs
"..." - Agniwolf1yrCommentedHowever, the Mars only charged its central chest weapon. It was the largest weapon module of the ARCEUS System and was designed for just these occasions.

to be fair ves always took into account the dangers aspect, especially by activelly testing it on not humans (by mta laws that is) for the most part
Ves firmly shook his head. "I did catch a good glimpse of what goes on in your head. Did you know what I think? You are thinking way too much about the gains and not enough about the potential dangers! How can you go so long as a Journeyman without making any decent attempt to account for all of the risk factors of your inventions?! Your near-total disregard for the damage that you can inflict on people's lives is truly appalling!" - Agniwolf1yrReplied to RicebucketReader
wen olson first met ves she did reveal to him that her path to glory was through suppressing rivals, so there is a high possibility that she considered him as such
"First, they simply won't do it. Second, even if there is the tiniest possibility that they are interested in this research direction, they would never entrust any of it to you. Your specialization is related to energy transmission systems and internal architecture. There is nothing in your record that gives anyone confidence that you are competent enough to succeed in this undertaking. You are a highly orthodox mech designer, and that makes you excellent in your current position. Experiments like these are normally performed by colleagues who possess more flexible minds and are more accustomed to thinking outside the box. You are not such a mech designer." - Agniwolf1yrReplied to Matthew_Smith_8135
ves is already a master of working under pressure
In fact, part of the reason why he was so reluctant to make the scale models alive was because Ves had not yet completed the spiritual design of the Mars Project.
