[action] backdated to Christmas...

Of all the things...

[Espio isn't currently within the Garden. Nope. He's standing outside, in human form to protect himself from the relatively mild cold, up to his knees in snow and staring at a thing. A big thing. A really big thing, ie one that can easily be seen from... Well, just about anywhere in the vicinity, given that it's both giant and purple.

Mysteriously plonked in the snow is a whopping great big airship. Like so.]

I'd rather have my own Ragnarok, but I guess that'll do...

So is this from home?

[espio]

Where did you come from?

[Shrugs, and looks back up to the ship, partly to hide the grin.]

Yeah, that's my - well, Chaotix's airship. It can't rival the Ragnarok, but that doesn't mean it's no good!

[fierybluebird]

Well you see, when a man and a chicken love each other very much...

[Yeah, no, just ignore that deadpan quip.]

Eh, what makes the Ragnarok better?

[espio]

Aside from having an incredible design, you mean?

It's faster, has considerably greater maneuverability, more fuel efficient, is capable of space travel - that is, vacuum-space rather than Special Zone space - and is equipped with a particle cannon and secondary weapons, whereas this is unarmed.

[fierybluebird]

Right... you've mentioned the space thing before. [The rest was just "blah blah ship stuff blah blah," to Marco.] And weapons maybe.

What would you even use canons for here?

[espio]

Blowing stuff up. Getting into the Lunatic Pandora. Fighting particularly oversized monsters when punching would only break a claw. There aren't many applications, but at least it's flashy.

[fierybluebird]

Why fight monsters with a ship if you can do it with kicks? It's more fun claws on.

So how fast is this one again?
