    Uni sits at a workbench in one of MMS's branch locations, a hobby shop for Shinki owners to buy parts and perform repairs and maintenance on their companions. She's got Bravette's frame disassembled to base components, picking out the damaged and broken parts and setting them aside. The CMS is missing, currently residing within a 'blank' loaner body so the Shinki can at least provide basic support functionality.

    Bravette sits on the edge of the workbench, out of the way of Uni as she works. The Shinki has a holographic window open, showing the worried face of Alty in a video call. "How is Leene?" the stoic Firearms-type asks, kicking her legs and tilting her head to the side. "Sh-She's fine... I think, but I called about you. I didn't know she would do that, I... I'm sorry."

    Bravette does something uncommon. She smiles. It's clipped and barely noticable, but it's there. "I'm not. Had to be me." she confides, leaning a bit closer, like a conspirator. "Someone else might have gotten it wrong."

    "Repairs will take a few hours. Sorting through what can be repaired and what's a total write-off will take the majority of the time, but I promised you I'd get her back in shape." chimes in Uni, glancing a red eye at the holoscreen as it turns towawrd the Goddess. "We'll catch up later, once we're done here. Okay?"
