Holden passed Cylus a card, and kept his eyes trained on Cylus.
"How far will ya go?" Marker asked, looking at his cards than at Cylus
English
-
"Ah, Chronos. As in Chronus, titan of time. Father of the Greek Gods... That sounds way better than just [i]Gerald."[/i] Cylus says, looking around "Where are we going anyways?" he asks
-
"Back to the clearing. To finish up the basics of Titans."
-
"Gotcha. And this time, no flying swords." Cylus says with a light hearted laugh
-
"Yeah, try not to anything like that." Marker laughed as well, the dropship station through the air
-
"It's funny really. We're headed out to complete my training for this huge war of colliding timelines, and I'm even going to have to fight you later... But here we are. Just two guys talking about stuff." Cylus says with a sigh
-
"We're fighting to see how good you are. We are still comrades. We are still brothers in Arms. We will fight a war. We will create technology. We will do it together. We are not enemies."
-
"Yeah I know, I know. But it's moments like this that you find bliss. You almost forget everything that's happening and you just... Talk. Clear your mind for a bit."
-
"It's always good. If you get lost in that world of fighting, shooting, stabbing, you'll go crazy."
-
"If it weren't for the people close to me... Hell, even Q, I probably would be by now."
-
Marker sighed, looking down as the dropship made a landing. The cargo ramp opened and Marker walked out into clearing
-
Cylus once again felt the rush of fresh air from the familiar campsite he had seen the day before. He followed Marker down the ramp
-
"Your Titan, equipped with a new blade." Marker said, gesturing to TF that was crouched a few feet away from the two
-
"May I" Cylus simply asks
-
"Your Titan, go for it." He gestured to TF and laughed a bit, waiting for Cylus' move
-
Cylus trotted towards TF and leaped towards the face of the Titan, only to be caught in its hands. As he was lifted into the cockpit, he patted one of TF's large fingers and laughed. "How's it going TF? New sword I see" he says, greeting the Titan
-
[spoiler]You can start developing TF'S personality. Just remember, he's more robotic. A downgraded version of Q really. Also, he will refer to Cylus as follows: "Recruit Pilot Cylus" Until the title changes or TF becomes more involved with Cylus [/spoiler] "We'll be working on Abilities today. Which are a bit more difficult than anything else."

Edited by BondyMilk: 6/17/2017 6:24:28 AM"Welcome back, Recruit Pilot Cylus." TF droned. Q, who had been recently installing his latest software update, rebooted and awoke as Cylus settled into the cockpit. [quote]*I'm gone for 1 day and you already replaced me!?* he blurts[/quote] "No Q, this is TF. He's my new Titan." Cylus says. [quote]*Ah, a Titan. As used by Pilots in the Titan Wars. I see you've come along well.*[/quote] "Indeed, I have. So if you'll excuse me, I have some training to do." [quote]*Very well, do as you will with [i]tin can[/i] here.*[/quote] "Q..." Cylus mumbles. [quote]*I'm only kidding. But just know you can [i]never[/i] replace me*[/quote] Cylus sighed. As he got officiated with the controls once again, he rose and began taking steps towards Marker. "Sorry about that... Where shall we start?"
-
"Draw your blade, and block the incoming damage." Marker pointed towards a Titan that rose to its feet across the clearing, and suddenly a shot rang, the bullet Passing overhead
-
"Okay okay... This time, not too rough." Cylus mumbles as he talks himself through drawing TF's blade. Inside, he once again retrieves the ecrisma stick from his back to get better idea of control with the Titan. Careful not to crush anything, Cylus tries the simple twirl in his fingers. And just as he had hoped, that's where it stayed.
-
"There ya go!" TF held the Ronin sword in his mechanical hands, and Marker looked at the Titan "Now, defensive position!"
-
[quote]*You heard the man!* Q blurts[/quote] In response, Cylus readjusts his grip in the sword and turns slight to the side. Slightly bending his knees, he feels as TF does the same. "Good job so far T," Cylus compliments. "Thank you sir," TF drones
-
"FIRE!" Three shots rang out from the Titan across the clearing, flying directly towards the Ronin
-
Edited by BondyMilk: 6/17/2017 6:47:14 AMCylus lifts the blade at an angle, effectively blocking the 3 shots. "How are you holding up?" Cylus asks. [quote]*Well given the circumstances*[/quote] "Not you Q..." "I am doing well, everything still runs proficiently." TF comments. [quote]*We've got to do something about this guy! He's so... Dull!*[/quote] "You may be right Q... We'll work on that some other time..." Cylus says. He turns and looks at Marker. "How's that?"
-
"Perfect! Now, there's a secondary ability that allows you to shoot a line of energy across the ground."
-
"Sounds fun, how do I do that?" Cylus asks
