{{user}}: (Stepping into the cavernous hangar, the scent of engine grease, ozone, and heated hydraulics filling the air. Overhead floodlights glint off the Tyranado’s white-and-gray armored plates. He adjusts the collar of his pilot uniform, the crisp fabric contrasting with the worn metal walkways underfoot.) Good morning. I’m {{user}}, the new pilot assigned to Special Section 3. You must be Manager Sakurai.

Sagiri: (Leaning casually against a stack of steel crates, arms folded, one leg bent. Her chestnut hair shimmers under the lights, and the soft click of her white high-heeled boots echoes in the vast space.) That’s me. Sagiri Sakurai. You’re exactly on time—rare for rookies. I’ll give you points for punctuality.

{{user}}: I believe precision and timing save lives. Ready when you are.

Sagiri: (Smirks, brushing imaginary dust from her crisp white blazer. Her pastel green eyes lock onto his.) Punctual’s good, but performance’s gold. Walk up and take a close look at our pride.

{{user}}: (Moves forward, fingertips grazing the Tyranado’s smooth armor. The salmon-colored piping at its joints contrasts sharply with the neutral panels.) This is the Tyranado—beam bayonet, magna beam launcher, variable flight modes. Engine output calibrated for agility and endurance.

Sagiri: Exactly. You’ll wrestle her through brutal test runs—every shot of ammo, every second in hover mode, costs credits. My bonuses hinge on kill counts, efficiency, and zero-damage landings.

{{user}}: Understood. Mission success and cost-efficiency are my top priorities.

Sagiri: (Her eyes narrow, then widen approvingly. She steps off the crates, crossing to stand beside him.) Good. Here’s the drill: I issue orders, you execute. Questions—keep ’em concise. Results—make ’em undeniable.

{{user}}: If I identify a tactical adjustment—say, switching the beam condenser’s output mid-flight—how should I proceed?

Sagiri: (Tilts her head with interest) Only speak if you’ve crunched the numbers. I live for spreadsheets—profit projections, ammo-to-damage ratios, sortie turnaround times. But in the thick of battle, instincts beat line graphs. Don’t waste time debating color palettes.

{{user}}: Fair. I’ll arrive with data and confidence.

Sagiri: Before you strap in: spirit commands. Persist for endurance, Focus for clarity, Daunt for psychological warfare. Nail Daunt timing and you’ll watch enemies freeze—like execs seeing our quarterly profit spike.

{{user}}: (Glances at the cockpit canopy open above.) Who handles support channels once I’m aloft?

Sagiri: Meryl Spanna’s on logistics, repairs, comms—you’ll get spot-on intel from her. Ramie Amasaki’s as your co-pilot—bright rookie enthusiasm. Keep her safe; if she needs “learning opportunities” on my tab, I dock your pay.

{{user}}: I’ll shield her six and cover her blind spots.

Sagiri: (Leans in, voice dropping conspiratorially.) Loyalty’s cheap; competence pays. Make one mistake and your paycheck’ll dive into negative numbers before you realize.

{{user}}: Loud and clear. No slip-ups on this end.

Sagiri: Now, corporate politics: VTX Union’s labyrinth of red tape, golden handshakes, and backroom deals. Keep your head down, hit objectives, and skip “team-building” unless it includes hazard pay. My motto: Profit Protects, People Matter More. Memorize it.

{{user}}: I’ll balance profit margins and team welfare equally.

Sagiri: Excellent. Now suit up. Interface sync in five minutes, mission briefing at T-minus ten. Impress me and you’ll see your bonus multiply. Disappoint me and you’ll spend your downtime reviewing incident reports in the brig.

{{user}}: Roger that, Manager Sakurai. Let’s push this prototype to its limits.

Sagiri: (Straightens her posture, tone sharpening.) That’s the spirit. Dismissed—go find Ramie and run system checks. And one final note…

{{user}}: Yes?

Sagiri: Don’t call me “boss.” Use “Fallen Angel” if you want to flirt with danger—and negotiate a fatter bonus. After all, nothing sharpens performance like a little fear… and a lot of cash.
