[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: hey seolla how was prom for u?

[VERTEX] Seolla Schweizer:  it went fine-! i think...i got a date? wait but what am i saying I was just about to ask if you're alright, it sounds like a bunch of very crazy stuff just happened?!

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: omg i thought that might be the case when i saw you talking to her!!!  not surprised u did u r super cute

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: and um

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: yah but i dont know what haha im vertexing do i dont drive myself nuts.  command kinda sorta locked me out of my access until they can talk to me face to face and sayla isnt answering her phome

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: it probably has something to do with

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: well my gf told me she knows char aznable has returned so jts probably that and it was axis day so it makes sense and i am just gonna stay real calm while waiting on news

[VERTEX] Seolla Schweizer:  damn it, that char aznable? ugh. ...hard for me to hear that name with a straight face, imagine it is for a lotta people to. it's okay I'll be here to hear you out

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: yah that one the uh other one is not him hes probably under the influence of 000 like amuro was and extremely dangerous but i dunno what else???  just me sitting here petting foras waiting um actually lemme just

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: *sends a picture of a fluffy blue maine coon on her lap to her*

[VERTEX] Seolla Schweizer:  oh! that's quite an animal! ...and yeah I guess it makes sense that char has the same...thing going on as amuro did. but those GGG guys took care of him, so surely this guy won't be too much harder!

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: they didddd but amuro uh has the reluctant hero martyr thing going on for him char thinks a little morr

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: apocalyptically sooooo yah!  i hope they do

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: fast

[VERTEX] Seolla Schweizer:  i was kinda told to hype up char as this. . . big nasty mega problem, but i never actually fought him face to face when they sent me up during that war. i dont know whats true about all that

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: now i think about it they said they didnt want me calling 3g either for now so yah and hmm well so i dont have first hand experience with him just his second coming and if the original fights even just as well then with 000 behind him its a bit terrifying???  little bit

[VERTEX] Seolla Schweizer:  second coming??? what in the world is going /on/ with this guy

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: um well basically hes a cyber newtypr from one of those labs who they put him in the sazabis psycoframe and imprinted chars memories into him as their new pawn buy hes in total denial he has fully accepted the role they gave him

[VERTEX] Seolla Schweizer:  ...fuck. nn. oh I hate that.

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: yah hard same its awful and i know hes a victim of a bad placr but

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: hes also a bully who enjoys hurting me and my bf and my gf so its hard i want to save him but im not sure how to reach him

[VERTEX] Seolla Schweizer:  ...i want to go with you in dealing with this guy. it's probably not the same as what I know, but at a bare minimum i'm going to make sure I know the name that's /his/

[VERTEX] Seolla Schweizer:  and at the bare minimum i can protect you from being hurt by him a little bit.

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: if ur sure then absolutely ill take u just be careful hes a lot and whoever is behind him feeds him very good intelligence he guessed who i am over a feed almost instantly and knew everything about me despite sayla burying most of that super hard

[VERTEX] Seolla Schweizer:  honestly if he knows that kind of stuff he might be /helpful/ cause i sure as hell don't

[VERTEX] Seolla Schweizer:  about me, i mean, 

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: oh i see where u oh

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: if he does he will use it in the meanest most triggering ways on purpose but ill be with u and be ready if he brings out something really bad

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: so what drew u to asking her out btw???  she looked real cute too

[VERTEX] Seolla Schweizer:  hguhguhg i did a dumb...target shooting contest, back in, tsutsujidai, and she won that, so thats where I knew her from.

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: doesn sound so dumb to me if u met someone like that <3  what do u like about her?

[VERTEX] Seolla Schweizer:  a-a-a i don't, uh. totally know, she's. uh. actually /is/ it a date? she's like some kind of theater celebrity type who's from like neo-america i think. maybe i'm just. in the right place at the right time to be shown around. i haven't gone to many places just...to go there, so that's why I accepted it. nn. complicated when i try to write it out.

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: well u asked a girl out at the prom sooooo she probably thinks it is??  and wait really? gosh i havent been to a revue in years thats exciting i heard some of them went to jindai tho but imo just go out with her and see?  even if it doesnt work out dating is a good way to get to know someone and getting that experience for urself is fun!

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: is writing things down to make sure u remember them?

[VERTEX] Seolla Schweizer:  yeah, it's very much a 'go there and see' kinda impulse thing. Hoping it's fun! ...kinda nervous. Dunno what to expect. still look at everything really warily, especially if it's a colony type place. ...i feel weird in enclosed spaces. i'm still writing absolutely everything down though yes, tessa is happy about that

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: its okay to be nervous or not know what to expect chances are ar ur age its her first date too, celebrity or not and hmmm sounds like earth might be the way to go then something outdoors?  and ah im glad u are too <3 i like it, its sorta a memory diary kinda thing

[VERTEX] Seolla Schweizer:  i kinda need it, i forget a lot of stuff without referring to it. used to just forget everything as much as possible. easier to remember things these days. ...even stuff i thought i forgot for good. unfortunately.

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: im so sry its like that im glad u found a good way to cope tho i think id do the same thing if i were in ur position

[VERTEX] Seolla Schweizer:  people like you are already helping so much. so many of you are so important to me

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: well ur important to us too <3 it makes me happy just getting to know u, talking to u about this stuff

[VERTEX] Seolla Schweizer:  nn, me too. helps make sure this is all. real. you're really...strong around people you've just met. i've gotta protect that, definitely need to help you make sure sayla's alright too. she saved my life for sure

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: shes alive i know it its the only thing letting me keep it togetjer rogjt now and well i had to be i was running me and my brothers home when i was six.  snd that guy who took me prisoner i told u about raised me like i was gonna be a socialite so even if i kinda hated all that i dont hate that part as it lets me be strong in meeting new people like u or in my charity work with the yumi foundation

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: i just look at it as using his teachings for some good

[VERTEX] Seolla Schweizer:  wish I coulda given that guy what for. .../he's/ not gonna show up screaming about the cosmic law or whatever is he???

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: no he

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: he died in a way theres no coming back from

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: he stepped out of his mobile suit to try and keep control of one of his cyber newtype corps and got vaporized by a beam rifle

[VERTEX] Seolla Schweizer: i mean i thought that sorta thing happened at axis too. and to the GGG. for all i know vaporizing people with minovsky stuff just sends them to like. minovsky's superdimension

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: god i hope not id just

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: god

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: if he came back we'd have another nz and another nz war

[VERTEX] Seolla Schweizer:  i

[VERTEX] Seolla Schweizer:  will cut him in half with a sword if thats what it takes, if he hurt you

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: he did but it it sucks because

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: he also cared about me in his own way so it sucks but

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: i couldnt help but care back a little and that sucks becausd

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: he was a guy who ran a lab like where u came from and i hate it i dont want to care about someone who did those horrible things to me and that girl i told u about

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: but i cant help ot and that sucks i just want him to stay buried

[VERTEX] Seolla Schweizer: ...don't know if it'd /help/. if it'd feel /cathartic/ for you. ...i might...rely on you and the others, if...I wind up having to kill...those two, that did what Glemy did. ...n...no, three of them really. .../kinda/ four. nn. it's weird. ...Egret's such a rat bastard, I can see it in his eyes but he never /did/ stuff to me, but he does probably...have to die. i don't /hate/ him as personally as I do...the guy that sounded like he tried to help. maybe he was sorta like this Glemy guy in his own pathetic way

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: when its time to take them down i promise ill help cathartic or not places like these need to go down and people like them cant be allowed to do this anymore so ull have me, promise

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: as for glemy he nnnghh he was weird?  he wasnt like one of those people who pretended to be kind then not do anything for people like u he just thoight he knew what was best for me best for everyone he could have a boyish crush on someone and want to do right by me a girl from the slums but then only think of people like u as weapons and not even pretend to be kind to them he went from this foppish aristocrat with weird views on women to science crime war criminal who wanted to rule everything in no time flat

[VERTEX] Seolla Schweizer:  terrifying. trying to envision that. ...i'd be screwed if i was around him i can /tell/. you're pretty strong for pushing past all that to see through his crap. honestly, if someone was weirdly puffy and talked about cherishing me and then turned around and tried to use me to conquer the world i'd probably work too hard for them, ugh

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: yah he was like that i think he intended to marry me off with one of hamans loyalists to form an alliance ew but if he'd learned some things before i was rescued im not sure i would have gotten out of there and well i see thro it now but back then he had me messed up too he got in my head about her and i said some things i wish i could take back theres a lot of things i wish i could do differently at first i was trying to escape all the time but eventually it went into survive and keep my head down and

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: i guess i just wish i could have been there for her more it sucks

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: haha god im really dumping on u this whole thing with sayla im a mess

[VERTEX] Seolla Schweizer:  nonono. i get all this. i'm here! if anything. it. uh. feels a bit. relieving. that I'm not...as alone in this as I worried. 

[VERTEX] Seolla Schweizer: oh but. i do have to. Go pretty soon. we'll talk more though. really, call me up any time

[VERTEX] Leina Ashta: ok <3 well thank u for listening i really do appreciate this and you arent alone promise ill update u when i know something
