Wantanabe Heavy Electronics pretty much has a hand in everything robotics in industry. Those legs your mech is outfitted with are a WE product, from prosthetics to heavy machinery. Where Cain Electronics supplies advanced computers and navigation systems, Wantanabe does all the actual physical stuff.

It's pretty neat. Though they mostly work in industrial stuff, haven't seen them really make weapons.

Ask if she's in her usual mech, and what kind of parts she usually uses

Oh this? Glaive? Yeah it's my mainline mech, it's maintained and upgraded here and there but it's pretty much the same thing. You know by Ship Of Theseus Standards and all. It's just a lightweight speedster with two shotguns, but for the missions I run, it's pretty much all I need.

You notice that your shift is surprisingly, nearly over.

Ah well, time flies when you're having fun. Any last questions before we trade out?

are there any rumors going around about that fancy alien mech?

You ask if she's heard anything about rumors about the alien mech.

Alien Mech?

Seems she doesn't know about it, maybe the amount of people who are in the know are limited. Maybe she's not even from the same Campus you were on, this is a planetary operation.

Tell her the basics: A merc team seized a monarchy train rumored to transport a new mech, and it turned out to be made of alien tech.

You inform her of the basics, keeping your involvement out of it.

Damn, actual alien tech. I know this planet is full of it, but damn the Monarchy actually made something like that? Man my employers would love to get their hands on that.

'pretty sure EVERY corp would. it'd probably start... what galactic war are we on again? 3 or 4?'

I'd say its definitely what we're here for, but we've got it and we're still here. Seems as though the corps think the monarchy has something even better

Yeah, there's always some form of conflict isn't there? Dropdrives kinda fucked that up and let everyone get everywhere huh?

>>1118264
I mean have you seen the giant door down there? There absolutely is something down there even better than a mech made out of alien technology.

What do you think are the odds whatever's in there will drive whoever looks at it mad? The old cosmic terror beyond comprehension

Odds of some big tentacly fucker? Very likely, that's how these things go isn't it?

You can't disagree.

Either way, our shift is up. It's been fun talking to you. Where you off to next? The cafeteria? To the bunks? Maybe the mech bays.

>>1118501
The cafeteria. It's been a while since we've eaten something and we feel like we're starving right now.

Yeah, cafeteria is good.

The vote is for the Cafeteria, you dock your mech and return to the interior of the spaceport, entering into a cramped cafeteria section. There seems to be nobody else here at the moment and a singular robot at the ordering section.

You ponder why everyone else isn't here.

Maybe the food is that bad.
Is anyone in the hall outside you could ask?

Ask if there's an alert, or a gathering, etc.

>>1118730
If there's nothing important happening, then take advantage of being first in line so you don't have to wait too long for your food!

If there's an important reason on why nobody else is here, go see what's happening.

Maybe the food is really bad today. Check the menu.

No.

Hello. Potential. Customer. Please Make. Purchase Of Food. Items.

Oh it's very basic, most bots have more complex language systems than that for certain.

Today's. Specials are.
- Macaroni Cheese
- Synthmeat Fajitas
- Mystery Pizza
- Big Boy. Steak.

You ask why the place is so empty.

Lunch hour. Has Completed. It is. Late.

Oh, you realized that you did just work 8-9 hours straight and went here. Seems likely the place is empty because nobody else has arrived yet.

Please Make. Purchase Of. Food.

Do you want to make an order, ask more questions, or find out if there's any more options.

Check the news for any potential food poisoning.

Buy pizza.

>>1118899
I'd go with the pizza or the steak.

Get the steak.

Cheese

The vote is for the Pizza.

Mystery. Pizza. Ordered.

Before you is a deposited pizza, it looks normal, but it is called mystery pizza. What is the mystery?

>>1119094
It's a mystery pizza because it is either going to taste like something unexpected or the mystery is how the ingredients to make pizza ended up on this planet.

Only one way to find out. Start eating!

There could be runes or something written on the bottom. Flip it over and check

The pizza is in a state of quantum superposition between pineapple and not pineapple.

Cooked with sexual fluids.

Om nom nom.

You take a bite into it, you expect a slight locust taste from refined insect powder, but find nothing. The pizza tastes like... pizza. Like the idea of what you think pizza tastes like, the platonic idea of pizza.

>>1119125
Nothing like that on the tray or the pizza.

>>1119134
No pineapple taste either, it looks like a regular pepperoni pizza.

By all measures you aren't sure what the true mystery of the pizza is. Maybe it's a psychological thing, like people who think organic food tastes better and get tricked into thinking what they're told is organic is the better tasting one. Maybe the whole thing is that this pizza is just labelled as a mystery to make you second guess yourself.

>>1119182
If there's nothing wrong with the pizza, then just eat it all!

>>1119182
Maybe each slice tastes different. Or maybe ONE slice is extra spicy!

eat the whole pizza all by yourself

You do so, it has been a long time since you've eaten. Usually you're hooked up to a nutrient IV while in your mech so feeding isn't a problem, even some of the augments in your body reduce the need for food. Still, actually eating is a benefit.

>>1119203
Having eaten it all, no you can say for certain that the taste is completely the same.

I guess the mystery is how corporate could provide pizza that isn't terrible

It's a mystery for certain.

Well you've eaten, you're now just left sitting here. Your shift has completed so now you're on rotation until the next job comes in.

All you have left is to explore the base, hit the garage and review your mech, or go to what has been made of the barracks and rest.

Explore the base! Get a good lay of the land.

You opt to go explore the base, where do you wish to explore first?

>>1119576
Let's check out the armory! Maybe get some firearms practice in.

>>1119576
Try the armory. You could probably get yourself a weapon for whenever you need to fight outside of the mech.

what's in stock in the armory?

You enter the armory, it is a large area manned by one old looking bulldog with a graying mustache, he has rows of weapons behind him, a range in operation. You can tell as well this isn't even all of the area, there should be an area for mech weapons as well.

>>1119701
Don't really need a new weapon for the mech. Just focus on seeing if there's anything that you'd want for yourself.

Welcome to the ITA armory, what can I do ya fer?

What do you want to ask about?

What's on stock? Got any laser rifles? What would he recommend for something reliable and suited for indoor combat?

inquire about sniping options for mechs
