[Video][Transmitting from the bar at Haven's Hub]

[winged_knight]

[Someone's been digging through the bar's storeroom looking for decorations for the dance when he comes across a little reminder. Well, not so little. He'd found it in the Junk Pile two months ago and had no idea what to do with it all. And once unpacked, it was more than he could haul back to his room much less have space for. So it'd been sitting, covered by on old tarp, forgotten in the bar's storeroom until now.]

[Wing waves into the video feed, looking, frankly, a little bit perplexed and perturbed.]

A lot of us received anonymous gifts quite a little while back. Mine was...quite large. And unfortunately, try as I might, I can't discern...what it even is.

[Wing holds up one of pieces of equipment which looks decidedly like an energy weapon to him, something he seems none too pleased about. He steps back to gesture behind him, to where a bunch of similar equipment is strewn about one corner of the room.]

Anyone want to help me sort out what all this stuff is? I'm at a loss.

[And one might notice, if one paid particular attention or just had a habit of staring at Wing's frame in general, that something has definitely changed since his last broadcast in December. His lines seem sleeker and the proportions in his chassis do seem different.]

On an entirely different note, I'm also happy to announce--albeit a little belated--that those to which I offered flights or tours of Haven, I can now accommodate you.

[Judging by the way this brings a smile back to his face, he seems inordinately pleased by this. Someone finished his cockpit modification and can carry passengers!]

Depends on how basic you're talking.

[ HUFF. ]

You'd better not hold back on any account!

Oh, it's a metaphor, silly!

[ Even he can do basic first aid. ]

But I know nothing about firearms. I'm not even allowed to use them. [ Confused mech is confused. ]

Well, if you pass out from the G-forces then you'll miss out on all the best parts!

O-oh. Right. Uh. Haha. Guess it went over my head.

[ A laugh. ]

Put your money where your mouth is, Wingdings.

[Video] I should be ashamed. BUT I'M NOT

[winged_knight]

[ OH. Is that a challenge? For serious? ]

What. You think I can't do mach 7 plus?

Have you seen the size of this engines?

[ He's not gonna go cupping his nacelles in an unsecured channel, but his hands do rise up in front of them in a way that hints at it...]

[Video] FFFFFFFFFFFFF NEVER BE.

[vandalization]

[ She's going to try not to laugh. ]

Oh Wing stop it, you're giving me the vapors.

[ Sitting here consumed with jetlust for the rest of the evening etc etc. ]

[Video] NEVER EVER

[winged_knight]

[ GRIN. ]

Aww Vandal, are you swooning?

[ Thankfully Wing's read enough of the right kind of fiction that he knows that isn't a reference to gaseous emissions. That would be decidedly unsexy. ]

[Video] LMAO

[vandalization]

What can I say? You've got what women want.

Big, powerful, shoulder engines.

[winged_knight]

Oh really...?

I think you mean I've got what engineers want.

[Video]

[vandalization]

I'd say that's pretty accurate.
