"Well," Reese stated, thinking of a way to summarize events in the past few months. "I had found myself a well-paying occupation as a mechanical engineer and weapon designer, as well as a small yet comfortable home that sits at a nice view of the Dojoville valley. Clara's doing well as a biochemist, and Wyatt got a job as a head officer in law enforcement; he and Clara are..." Reese slightly grinned. "...you know. Wilson is...Wilson, and he's doing just fine; I've been working on a small hover-bot so that he could have a physical extension."
Reese thought for a moment, then continued.
"...Oh! There was also this whole robot uprising led by a general overseeing a mining project owned by the Imperial Dominion, but that was quickly squashed. And...that's pretty much it."
He had already told Mortar about what happened between him and Cyan; that was enough confession for Reese for one day.

Cross: Sounds cool. Most I did since we last met was train myself to the point where I discovered a new ability. It's not really anything, but there is some interesting stuff I can do with it. Mortar: I've seen it, it's pretty cool. Oh, one more thing, you mentioned Brutus. What were you going to say?

Reese, having thought of an excuse to the question, answered: "Oh, I was just referring to the time we rescued Clara from that SHG warship...when I explained the whole thing about the handgun." He planned to make a strange analogy out of the time Brutus slammed Mortar into his own back cannon repeatedly to explain what happened between him and Cyan the time she stayed overnight at his house. However, and probably for the best, he decided to drop it; Cyan was his best friend's sister, after all. "--Anyway," Reese went on, changing the subject. "what's this 'new skill'?"

*Mortar nodded as Cross began to explain* Well, I've worked in the ideals of the Shadow for a long time now, and recently I have unlocked something some, not I however, would call an Apocalyptic... power... if you will. I disagree because my strength would be apocalyptic prior to this. To explain it simply, I am able to explode into shadow, engulfing anything in it's radius, depending on how large I want it to be.
