Tiamat
BROADCAST: Little birds, little birds, flying to pull the plug on the whole beautiful bonfire! Tiamat says NO. Tiamat's Bahamut ate your little pulse for BREAKFAST.
Professor Fujimoto
Impossible — the prototype EMP discharge was direct, her frame should be DEAD—
Lieutenant Akira
Modified shielding. Matsuo knew about the pulse. There's only one thing on this battlefield faster than that monster... and it's the monster in my head.
PILOT
Akira, if you open that door, can you close it again?
Lieutenant Akira
Ask me after. Hikari — if I come back wrong... you know what I need you to do.

Tiamat
STATIC: hahaha... HAHAHA! There you are! THERE'S the real one! Finally somebody FUN — again! AGAIN—
Lieutenant Hikari
Her frame's down. Akira, it's over. Akira. AKIRA. Look at me. Come back. Come BACK.
Lieutenant Akira
...I'm here. I'm still here. I used it and I'm still ME. It's screaming about it, but I'm still me.
PILOT
Then that's the weapon they never planned for — a Prime who won't stop being a person. Let's go break their conduit.

Sergeant Yuki
Tiamat is still flying after a direct EMP hit. I do not understand the physics and I do not want to.
Ensign Yusuke
Neither do I, and physics is usually my whole personality. I am unsettled on a professional level.

Lieutenant Nakamura
Akira went dark on this channel the moment he engaged her. He is back now. Whatever that cost him, he paid it and came back.
