Ensign Rika Jones
Simulation deck is prepped. Lieutenant Akira requested combat parameters at... 140% of rated limits. That can't be right.
Lieutenant Akira
It's right. Something happens when I push past the redline. I need to know what it is before it happens in a real fight.
PILOT
And you want a witness who won't file a report.
Lieutenant Akira
I want a witness who'll pull me out if I don't come back. There's a difference. Ready when you are.

Vitals are stabilizing. Akira, your neural sync spiked to numbers the machine doesn't have colors for. What WAS that?
Lieutenant Akira
The spark. When my squad was falling, the machine and I just... became one motion. It felt like drowning in light.
PILOT
You were faster than anything I've ever flown with. And you were screaming the entire time. You know that, right?
Lieutenant Akira
...No. I didn't. Keep this between us. Please.

Ensign Rika Jones
Simulation deck is prepped. For the record, I asked twice if he was sure about 140%. He was sure twice.
Ensign Asami
rika you have been running that sim deck alone for HOURS, come get food when you are done, I saved you the good rations
Ensign Rika Jones
You do not have to keep doing that, Asami.
Ensign Asami
yes I do, that is what the good rations are FOR

Ensign Rika Jones
Sync telemetry just did something my instruments do not have a graph for. Building one now.
PILOT
Keep the recording running. Whatever this is, someone should have proof later.

Deck powering down. I am filing this under "classified, ask Akira", which is my professional way of saying I have no idea what I just watched.
