END OF ARC 1: DAY 169-170 DOWNTIME

[asgardmods]

[The first battle is over, but the second will begin any time. For two days, the enemy forces will remain on the other side of the battlefield, working on strategy and tending to their wounded. Both sides have taken heavy losses, and the Arena is full of the hurt and dying.

The battlefield itself has turned to a bloody, muddy mess. The elves will be asking the Army Engineers group and anyone else willing to help them lay timber and gravel out to make the ground easier to walk on for the next battle.

What will you do in your breathing space? Keep working, mourn your losses, or retreat from the horrors of war?]

Then we must check for a penis.

[He pries the cat off his chest and holds it up for her. Perhaps the cat was wishing it'd never been rescued now.]

... Then I'll leave that up to you.

[mustwefight]

Understood.

[ She takes the cat from Souji, makes it face her, raises it to her eye level and looks at its genitals intently. ]

[socializes]

[Souji takes this opportunity to get up. Sitting on a robot- and one that was studying the gentalia of a mere kitten- would only raise questions. Many, many questions.]

Did you find anything? [I.....................]

[rocketpunches]

Yes! [ She gets up quickly, excited to tell him the news. ] Souji, she is a girl! We can name her Daisy!

[ the cat meows. what is going on??? she supposes it's a good thing... but she looks so confused and disoriented. ]

[socializes]

We can. It's a good name. [He smiles, feeling the previous awkwardness fade away as he sees how enthusiastic Alisa is. Though perhaps it was only him that felt that sense of awkward... Still, she seems pretty happy to find a name for the kitten. It was a little infectious. And he admits it has a nice ring to it.] "Daisy"... That's your name now.

[He gently pets the newly named kitten's ears, before looking up at Alisa.]

Since you helped name her, you'll help me take care of her, right?

[rocketpunches]

[ That catches her by surprise. Actually, she was expecting one of them to take on the responsibility -- but for both of them to take of her? Well, Alisa doesn't mind. This is another thing they can do together as friends. ]

I will. Um... [ So she doesn't feel shy about looking at a cat's crotch, but she feels shy about this!? Don't mind her, this just isn't usually part of the protocol. ] Thank you for helping me rescue her. I owe you.

[socializes]

[He shakes his head.] It was because of you that I was able to save her. I should be thanking you. So thank you, Alisa.

Meow...

[rocketpunches]

It seems that Daisy wants to say something as well. Perhaps she is also thanking us?

... Sometimes I do not know what we are fighting for, but nevertheless, I wish to save as many lives as we can. Like Daisy's.

[socializes]

I feel the same way. I want to protect everyone, if I can. But I think it's possible if we all work together like we are now.

If you're not sure what to fight for, fight for yourself and your friends. If anything, there's always that, right?
