You know, earlier today the weirdest thing dawned on me. I'm pretty much one of the highest ranked people on this base. I have a higher rank than Major Ingram

You are?

[Filtered to Shiro]

Well I would be a fool to ignore one who outranks Major Ingram.

[ensign_in_love]

I sure am.

[Filtered]

Glad to hear it.

If you want to meet in private, we should meet in my room.

[ensign_in_love]

[Filtered]

Oh. Yeah. Wow, I'm just a genius sometimes, aren't I?

*At an agreed time Shiro shows up at Kira's room, and knocks on the door*

[mechaotaku]

W-what?! You mean that really cool guy outranks the Major?! ....Man, and I was going to ask him out to lunch or something... Damn it, that's just my luck, tch.

You mean you didn't realize your rank until just now? How is that even possible?!

[She quickly adds in, a little awkwardly.]

Sir.

[ensign_in_love]

Hahahah, well, for a while I was new here and I guess I just felt like I should defer to the guys with seniority on base, and then some stuff happened, and after that I never really thought about it. I'm so serious, right?

But you don't have to call me that.

[mechaotaku]

I don't know, I guess if you think about it, it really is like you to not realize your rank! If you don't mind my saying so, that is.

...You sure? [She rubs the back of her neck.]

[ensign_in_love]

Well, it's obviously pretty true, so how could I hold it against you?

And yeah, I'm sure. After all this time not really thinking about it, being called sir is a little weird.

Major...Ensign...I don't...

The military is so confusing. Especially here with all the mixed branches and people like me who never even got assigned a rank.

But anyway, congratulations, Mr. Amada.

[ensign_in_love]

Kusuha, is something the matter?

[soylent_genki]

No, I just don't even understand military bureaucracy, let alone the military.

Well, that's not totally true...I have a strange feeling about this mission. Or maybe I'm just generally worried.

[ensign_in_love]

It's complicated and not worth getting into right now, think.

... bad feeling, huh? Which mission, the Apsalus?

[gonna_snipeyou]

Oh?

[ensign_in_love]

I don't know what you're talking about, but yeah.

[gonna_snipeyou]

You are a person of high respect...What's your rank again?

[ensign_in_love]

Ensign.

[wetnoodleguy]

Huh, that makes me wonder... If your rank is so high, sir, then why are you piloting a Gundam made from spare parts?

[ensign_in_love]

Because it's sturdy and it's my own. I'm used to and attached to it.

[wetnoodleguy]

Good answer! Just try not to get hit too bad during the mission, okay? I heard rumours the thing you're facing is pretty tough!

[ensign_in_love]

I've got a good feeling about the coming mission.
