Autumn, November 22nd - Welcome To My World (Backdated)

Text - Private to Blaze, Gale, & Satsuki

Good morning. I have something in mind that might interest you, so I'll make this brief. There is an event in the Dubai subarchway right now, a technology and cultural fair lasting for an entire year. I'm not sure if Troy had shown you this side of Dubai, so if you wish to see it, I'll gladly accompany you

[ In reality, it's Ayame who really wants to see Dubai again. Especially when she finds out this is a few years into her past, back to a time when she was still herself. Ayame couldn't do it on her own, so she feels having some company would help her cope with what she is about to dive into ]

Text - Public

[ Right after sending that text message, Ayame removes the filters and sends another message to the public, with the same topic of subarchways ]

Good morning, Genessia. I'd like to know which of you have subarchways leading to a place in your respective homeworlds. More importantly, if you would welcome visitors to them. I would just love to see new worlds and experience different things in my spare time here, so your answers would be appreciated.

[ Ayame remains calm and composed in the backseat, just looking like she's texting on her phone while Gale did those snap turns. ]

I can make this jet small enough to fit in your pocket, but it would be rather useless in Genessia anyway. The dome that covers each city is too low for high altitude flight.

[ Technically, This Dubai is also covered in that dome, so Gale wouldn't be able to pass through the clouds unfortunately. But this jet is perfectly fine in low altitudes. It's got no supersonic capability that would just wreck glass of skyscrapers ]

I got our location. Marking it on the dashboard map now.

[ A red dot appears on the more populated area of Dubai. The downtown area, in fact. ]

Yeeeah, I know. If not for that, I'd have snagged a Berkut-7 by now. Makes me wonder how that one kid manages having a giant robot in Nova.

[If he couldn't have his Gripen or a Tomcat-D, then snagging a fifth gen would have been acceptable. As long as he didn't accidentally steal the Berkut that belonged to one of his sisters, anyway.

His eyes are drawn to the red dot, rolling the aircraft in the proper direction.]

Roger. Any recommended methods of approach? You're the boss right now.

[And if she's on some kind of operation, the least he can do is not be reckless and screw it up because he wants to have a field day in a new toy.]

A giant robot, huh?

[ Now that's interesting. All Ayame could think of how is that whoever owns it brought it in piece by piece. She is unaware that Haller did the exact same thing that she offered Gale earlier: shrinking the Gundam to fit through the gate. ]

I concealed the jet once we took flight. Nobody will ever see us, so just put the plane on hover mode. I marked the platform on the building you can land on.

[ The heads-up display showed one of the spire's setbacks that can act as a makeshift landing pad. Once they land and leave the plane, Ayame casually hops off it and landed gently on the pavement. The air is thin where they are, being almost a kilometer above ground. But that's not new for someone who lives in Nova City like Gale is ]

Let's move.

[ Ayame leads the way, holding her folded umbrella in her hand while her purse is slung on her shoulder, entering an emergency door leading to a dark fire-exit staircase. Happily humming while drinking from her flask, Ayame hurried down the steps until they reach a certain floor, exiting the fire escape and onto a small, fancy hallway, with nothing but an elevator, a large floor-to-ceiling window, and a door. Casually, she continued humming, hovering her hand over the security console to unlock the door ]

We're here. Are you ready?
