Gundam Crucible - [An AU Universal Century Quest]

[X] Will not strong enough. Cave to her demands. To MacDaniels with you.
 
Alright while I probably won't have time to go through the remainder of the update in regards to the consequences of this vote. Well beyond Cybele burning her entire paycheck in a single day, and probably starting with some bad spending habits.
Note: This seems like a joke vote. It is not a joke vote. Do not concern yourself with being late to the Bellerophon, you will arrive on time no matter the vote. That being said, there are no major long-lasting consequences to going with one or the other.
So in order to work out what the consequences for Sicilia we need to consider the environment in which she was uh well designed to inhabit, and the world view that was expect from her by Neo Zeon. Since Neo Zeon was a movement founded by the Zabi lackeys who feared the consequences of their actions such that they fled to Axis meaning all of the Ple clones are based around the concept of having a "Master" to follow alongside a whole of mental conditioning* to view life from the perspective Neo Zeon felt would make them useful tools, and you can see this in how pretty much all the Ple clones have something equivalent to a "Master" even if the terminology changes to adhere to the expectations of the individual.

In short the mental conditioning Neo Zeon put into the Ple clones to obsessively care about their "Master" vs a child with supernatural empathy running high off Disneyland where everyone is happy associating that with MacDaniels. I'm personally betting on the burger chain winning that one, and won't be at all surprised if Sicilia works out a deal to get funding to support Londo Bell through putting advertisement for MacDaniels on her MA, which she really just did to add some fun to her machine, or the marketing guy said she can eat all the burgers she wants at any MacDaniels.

Honestly it'll be interesting to see how Dr Bidan reacts to Sicilia being over the moon for a burger chain. :V

Thanks, MacDaniels.

*This includes things like Sicilia reflexively going "Sieg Zeon" while having no clue she did so, and whatever else was on the checklist.

Banagher may have gotten to LARP Roman Holiday, but at least we'll have Weekend at Bernie's.
 
You run to catch up to Sicilia, passing by a large Goofy animatronic that you're pretty sure is a repurposed Mobile Suit frame.
You're safe for now Capitalism but those hot dogs have you on some thin fucking ice.

Which was stronger, the pout of a Ple or the siren call of a malfunctioning ice cream machine? Only the Big Macca can answer.

Didn't a Jolibee Restaurant show up in Hathaway's Flash? Did something happen to McDonald's to make it no longer exist?

Macdaniel

McDaniel Hamburgers, also known as Macdaniel, is a hamburger restaurant franchise that first appeared in Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam. A burger chain based in the lunar cities and the space colonies, McDaniel enjoyed great popularity due to the taste and volume of its beef patties, which were made...
They also make cameos in other Gundam works.

Including Gundam Crucible: Conspiracy in Hong Kong. Some people argue it's just a filler episode, but I find Cybele and Calvin Sem Daruke's fast friendship touching, and their discussion of elder sibling-hood and revenge a deep and interesting look into Cybele's character.
 
Sicilia's earth baby/classy lady routine with Hathaway.

Cybele getting just Elle's name wrong.

All of Cascadia team refusing to take off their helmets in Earth's atmosphere because of a bunch of Cascadia specific superstitious spacenoid nonsense, with Mort in particular absolutely refusing to even leave his cockpit while in Earth's gravity.
@TheBleachDoctor well we are about even on my funny predictions. I don't suppose there is still time for Sicilia to call Hathaway an earth baby?
 
Well we can't have everything. It probably wouldn't have topped her doing it to Pukey Lukey anyways.

On the bright side, that means Cybele will be out of the cradle off planet soon, and back into space. We can switch models again. Has Rhea unlocked any new ones while we were gone?
Yes.
And you're going to need it.
Like, really really need it.

What did Crux Dogatie, and/or the Federation make Neo Zeon do all the work in their group project to drop a colony on something via finding a vault of Ple clones that come with a stash of MS/MA to give them?

Alternatively Luke Walker might've decided to go down the crazy route for revenge, and volunteer for whatever CyberNewtype enhancements the Federation has available all in the name of bringing "Order" to the Earth Sphere.

"Eww. Cybele, the stinky earth baby is back! He's even grosser and stinkier than before. I guess some people can't handle being a Cyber Newtype and Classy at the same time."

Don't forget the Buch Concern
"How astute of you." He says, and you can practically hear his smug grin, "So this is goodbye. But rest assured, we will meet again, and when we do things won't go your way."
And that Birnam Pilot. We know they wanted Psychoframe for something. Could be their making their move now, or the Pilot is back for round two.

I'll admit this got a chuckle out of me.

Honestly the best approach to handling this would be for Cybele to get to know Team Alex, and bond over working out strategies for the squads to take on Amuro without casualties.

Because practice against Amuro should help with whatever else Newtype related is thrown their way, and nothing says Oldtypes can't fight smarter not harder by making use of the fact that a Psycommu can pick up their thoughts to call in funnel fire support from the unit MA. This just requires some practice to work out the kinks in the process.
