Welcome to Gaia! ::

Infuriated at Evan for stealing his intern without asking, Isvara grumbled and headed out of his lab after him, only to stop at the door to reflect.

I shouldn't have taken out all of that frustration on Sophie and Evan.

Captain Raczynski was really taking a toll on Isvara's sanity. He had asked Isvara to organize and compile all of the data that had been transferred back by the Von Neumann Machines that were deployed on Centuria. However, all of the information was already organized and compiled by Kari, his computer's AI personality.

However, that retard doesn't "trust" AIs so Sophie and I have to do all of this s**t alone.

Isvara contemplated further and thought of apologizing to the eerily flamboyant 'heterosexual', and his intern. He quickly rid that thought out of his head. Apologies weren't his style.

Walking out into the corridor, he saw Evan, Sophie, and Ezra conversing. Well, Evan and Ezra. Sophie never talks.

Isvara saw the spill on the ground, which Sophie was about to clean up. He thought about insinuating a 'sorry' through offering to clean up instead of saying it, which would totally crush his ego. He looked at the paper towel on the ground, but he couldn't use that, he had to be more badass, so he walked up to his intern and crouched down near the spill to look at it.

"I'll clean this up, kiddo," he told her, switching his attention fro mteh floor to her face, "I'm sure you are hungry as well, go eat Oh Great Anorexic One."

He smirked, and as always, she blushed.

Isvara dispensed some nanobots over the spill, which eventually consumed the coffee and converted it to oxygen via chemical processes. The show ended with a a bunch of harmless sparks flying around. Isvara looked at Sophie with a gleaming look in his eyes, bathing in a glory that would normally be found after saving someone from a life threatening situation.

My ego, she feels good :3

He then reverted back to his previous self, began ignoring Sophie, stood up, and asked Ezra what he asks everyday.

"How the ******** are you Chinese and yet have the accent of some incestuous hick?"

'Oh Great Anorexic One' Sophie looked away from Isvara and blushed of embarrassment. The second time today someone had made a remark about her size. However, this was petty normal. She was not anorexic, rather slender. But being her 'boss', Isvara tended to pick on her. A lot. She did not hate him for it; she was far too shy.

Just then Isvara glanced her way, flashing gleaming eyes. Sophie blushed even more, if that was at all possible.

Ezra then spoke to him, "come get somethin' ta eat with us. Maybe if ya ate more ya'd stop snapping at your interns."

"Uh-" Sophie lightly gasped and looked to Isvara, blushing less, and a bit in shock. She looked down before he could catch her eye; water still dripping down her cheeks and from her hair.

Sophie looked over to Evan and smiled, then back at Isvara and Ezra, "you all go ahead. I'm going to get dried up," and with that, she made her way to the ladies' room. As usual, no one was in there. She sighed and looked at herself in the mirror for a few moments, then rest her handbag on the counter (one would be surprised what she can pull out of there). She dug around and took out a regular-looking, small towel; one side of the towel, however, was coated with a soft, shiny material. Sophie folded the towel around the width of her hair and gently passed it down her lengthy hair. All the water was absorbed instantly, leaving her hair as it was before.

"Forcing a lady to do something against her will? That's not manly!" protested Evan. He grabbed Isvara by the shoulders with both hands, staring intently into his face. "And we're men, aren't we Issy?! Manly men, who do manly things! And we like women, because that's what men do! Isn't it?!" He let go of his friend and turned to face Ezra, grinning.

"Right, Ezra?"

"Ah kind of agree with Isvara," Ezra said, tapping her foot. "She's too quiet. Ain't healthy. Best to get her talkin'." She ruffled her slightly damp ponytail. "Ah need coffee." And with that, she left the two of them bickering in the corridor and walked off to the kitchen. Manly men. She rolled her eyes at that, with an affectionate smile.

Coffee in the top cupboard. She turned the tap on full blast and filled up the kettle, deciding between three sugars or four. Four. She needed the kick. Isvara and Evan walked in - rather, Isvara walked in, Evan jogging behind and protesting about his manliness. Shortly after that, Sophie walked in. Ezra glanced up sharply and smiled with all her teeth as she flicked on the kettle.

"What kinda coffee d'you like, Miss Akiyama? I'll make one up for ya." She shot a look at the men, as if daring them to ask her for a coffee. Or maybe challenging them to engage Sophie in conversation. It was hard to tell with looks. They tended to look like staring.

Isvara turned to Evan. He was annoyed by him, yet again.

"Hey Evander, are you so insecure about your sexuality that you must emphasize MANLY whenever you talk to me?"

Isvara smiled and waited for Evan's response.

"Oh really? b***h, its on!"

Isvara grinned. Battle simulators were fun, and Captain Raczynski was sleeping and also technologically retarded, so he wouldn't know what was happening around.

The two went to the ship's simulator, branded with a big 'Au' logo. Isvara sat down on one of the seats and plugged himself into the system.

"Where do you want to battle, Evan?" Isvara asked as he was browsing to the locations available, ranging from various places on Earth to the Terran Confederation's locations in space, "I'm in the mood for some grassy plains; face to face."


(Rules. 1-100 attack, 500 HP each.)

Isvara closed his eyes and concentrated. When he opened them, he found himself on a grassy plain covered with blue skies and cirrus clouds. In the distance, there was a large urban city with tall towers reaching the heavens.

In front of him, stood Evan, who told him to go first.

"Whatever. You insinuated that I was a woman, but hey, I still get the first hit."

Isvara charged his gloves to generate flare nanobots, after which he sent them heading towards Evan. He then snapped his fingers, causing his gloves to send signals towards the swarm of nanobots telling them to burst into flames.
