*Battletech: Planet's Fall

"Can't handle the heat?" Laks teases as she joins in encouraging Yoko to dance. She makes a beckoning motion of her hand. "Come help me teach this schoolgirl how to let her hair down."

"That makes me think Sword of Light. Good it's not a mech and this isn't a fighting game." Laks half grumbles and half jokes about Cat's colour choice. Her enjoyment returns as she looks over the map while the system loads. Both boys are getting ready and concentrating while Laks looks relaxed. "Yea...

"Definite improvement. Like that. Now time it with the movement. Less like this." She demonstrated sporadic and jolted movements. "More like this." The demonstration shifted back to a flow in harmony with the song's rhythm. "Feel it. Don't think about it." Laks urged, pressing in close until their b...

"Just, uh, ground bikes...?" One of them says. "Sports bikes and stuff." The other hands... helpfully? Lakshmi snorts, already sifting through the options. "There we go. Good speed, good manoeuvrability, handling isn't terrible and it doesn't look like crap." She confirms her selection for some sort...

"Sisters, right. I do like teasing you though..." She stealthily reaches to the side only to give Cat's bottom a quick, playful slap as she turns her attention to the boys. "We're not related. Okay, so, show us the way. I'm Lakshmi." Energetically stepping alongside them, Laks is all smiles as they ...

Laks nods in approval. "Seems we've found something more motivating for you. Nice one Yoko." The petite Captain joins in the hip swaying, but her attention is on Ez. After a few more moments she moves to place her hands on Ez's waist so she can help steer her motions. "Roll your body there. Feel tha...

"As long as we do the sims too, I don't mind." The pair of mechwarriors had very similar inclinations! "Shall we go for some racing?" The boys both looked pleased, especially having a girl near their age to play with. Then one of them asks "So, erm, are you sisters?" Laks thinks about it and smiles....

"That's okay to begin with, but... what else ya got?" Laks asks, demonstrating a few different hip gyrations. "Let me know if you want to try any of these Ez."

Speaking of, Laks casually strolls back to the group. She pats Cat's shoulder. "Hey, what are we talking about?"

"Show us what you can do and we'll suggest some moves and enhancements. Start with that." She looked as much to Yoko to confirm the approach as she looked at Ez to signal she was fine with it. Lifting her hands up above her head, she lets her body sway in time with the rhythm as she kept her gaze on...

"Okay, something slow, something slow..."

She scrolled through the songs until she found something suitable. Putting it on, she gets up and stretches as it starts to play. It was indeed a slow song the trio could groove to.

Laks eagerly bumps fists with Cat, wearing a big smile.

"Hey, your pick. You finished the boss."

She shoots the question back to Cat as she puts the gun back on its stand. "Give it some thought. I'll let the staffer know." She waves to Cat and walks off toward the main counter.

"I did hunt down this karaoke machine." She points out, implying she was looking forward to some singing. "So why not both? We can teach Easy here a few 'cool dance moves'." Laks decided not to select the song she'd just found. It could wait. They needed something that made you want to dance. "So, s...

"We really did!" Laks joyfully hugs Cat back, rolling her left and right in the embrace. "You were brilliant too." There are a few more cheers from the crowd and a young boy actually asks a question... "What are you playing next? My friend and I kind of want to watch." Laks is grinning. She points t...

It's down to the wire. There are cheers from the small crowd as the pair knock the boss into its final form. Near death, it hits Laks and takes her out the fight. The next few seconds are tense yet Cat manages to bring it down with an incredibly quick shot to its exposed brains - the last critical p...

Cat loses a single life of three in the boss fight, but they bring it down. The next stage goes well and both of them lose a life in the fifth (again during the boss fight). The sixth level was the most challenging, but they each make it to the boss fight. This time Laks loses a life early as the bo...

Laks watched and listened to the fun in between checking through the song list. It had been worth hunting down the karaoke system.

"It's going to take a little while and it'll get harder from here, but... you're right. Let's do this!" Laks gets her gun ready with a manic grin. The boss fight starts a moment later and another person joins the audience. She blasts away at the boss , hitting its weak points and whittling it down. ...

The small captain was fine with being cuddled by Yoko. She didn't know her super well, but she was attractive and they were all getting on so she had nothing to complain about. She leaned toward Yoko as she took another sip. That also lowered her face by a couple inches which made the view that bit ...

Both of them get a look for the comments, but Laks remains focused on the song. She does pat her dress at the end as she flops back down between the pair of them.

"Warmup done. Time for another drink. Ez's up next."

She cheerfully sips from her Chu-hi. "Fwaaah~ tastes even better after a song."
