Worries

[shimmer_on]

So I've got the local qualifiers coming up and... I don't know if I can pass them?

My team is solid, but I feel like my Gunpla has been lacking.

I'm trying to find inspiration somewhere, but it's been so hard lately.

Anyone have any ideas of what I can do? I'm using a Unicorn Gundam as a basis but I dunno...

Put something cute on it.

[shimmer_on]

Cute? Would that even...

Hmm... you might be onto something.

[yes_im_kawaii]

It's what I would do. It would look cute but also super tough and be able to punch things.

[shimmer_on]

So probably a SD type then. I need a gimmick to them though.

[yes_im_kawaii]

Uhh... Fireworks. Obviously. That would be cool.

[shimmer_on]

Well, fireworks can act as chafe. Maybe a transforming one... but too many moving parts will weaken the structure...

[yes_im_kawaii]

Then how about one that has a really strong shield, so it's hard to hurt it, instead?

[shimmer_on]

Hmm, that's a good idea. A shield, maybe with anti-beam coating as well. Or something close to the RG System that was once made...

[yes_im_kawaii]

What's that do? Gunpla battles have too many things.

[shimmer_on]

The RG system fortifies and pulls in particles into the system to charge it. And then from there, you can unleash it in a burst or empower your gunpla.

If I could design an absorb shield it might help, but it won't help against those who use physical weapons like missiles.

[yes_im_kawaii]

So you have to make sure nobody hits you no matter what they use!

[shimmer_on]

Yeah but not getting hit is an impossibility in Gunpla battle...

Unless... a forcefield system might work.

[yes_im_kawaii]

What if you were really, really fast?

[shimmer_on]

That's another thing. I could make it highly mobile, but I'd also have to strip down some armor for that, to reduce weight and lag.

[yes_im_kawaii]

Why does being good at one thing always have to mean you suck at something else?

[shimmer_on]

Its a balancing issue. There's some really overpowered Gundams out there with unique systems. I just want mine to stand out if I can.

I'm no Sei Iori, but I'd like to think I can be creative enough to create my own gundam and weapons.

Mind if I swing by your EMC and look at your Mecha? It might give me ideas.

[yes_im_kawaii]

Sure! As long as you don't break something and blame it on me or Nekotari. Otherwise, it'll be fun.

[shimmer_on]

Yeah no, I'm not going to do that. But thanks, I'll be over in a little bit.

[yes_im_kawaii]

Okay! I'll sneak you past anyone who might get mad.

[shimmer_on]

Oh? Security's tight I take it?

[yes_im_kawaii]

No, just sometimes they go all "hey, stop messing with things!"

[shimmer_on]

Heh yeah I feel that. All right, thanks.
