Colony Drop
Who: Char, the forces of Zeon (any or all of you who want to contribute), whatever allies decided to show up on short notice, and Viridi's minions as NPCed by her mun
What: Defending Zeon from Viridi's Reset Bomb
When: Dawn on July 2
Where: The skies above Zeon and the sea to the west of Zeon
Warnings: It's a combat log
Aboard the Rewloola - and surrounding it with every airship Char could muster in an hour - Zeon's defense forces array themselves on the predicted course of the nature goddess's meteoric wrath. Higher than anyone normally travels, all guns, bows, arrows, and anything else they could conceivably throw at the incoming Reset Bomb were trained up and westward. Char himself is ready with rifle and Nightingale, as much as those would even help - at the very least he could defend his artillery from any breakaway rocks or defending nature spirits.
"All ships," Char says, his words transcribed into signal flags to communicate with the other airship commanders even as he speaks over his Crystal to his higher-ranking soldiers. "We've sighted the meteor approaching at high speed from the west. All units are to move toward it at full speed and come about once it is within one half mile. Attempt to match speeds with it or safely enter its wake to maintain fire for as long as possible. We have about five minutes on target to destroy it, starting in two from this point. You are to do everything in your ability to grind it into dust before it strikes our homeland. Sieg Zeon!"
That curt set of instructions finished, Char gives to command to his captain to begin the all-ahead-full charge toward the interception point, all the while glaring up at the falling star. Nothing like this will happen to Zeon on his watch, even if he has to create a miracle with his own hands. That's what people like Zeon's do.

Re: Battle Preparation - please report in here if you're helping Zeon
"Greetings, Char Aznable of Zeon. I am Lady Palutena... And I am here to help you fight back against a mutual foe."
no subject
Mustering the presence of mind and memory to bow a diplomat's bow to the woman, Char returns her greeting. "Lady Palutena...one of the Crystal King's angels, right? I'd offer you my hospitality in a heartbeat, but we're really short on time."

Athrun's armor transitioned from a drab gray to a gentle red. Readying his shield, he also ignited the beam saber on his right wrist. He was ready for any enemies that would bear down upon him.

Someone idly comments through telepathy for no particular reason.
"I'd hate to scuff up your armor. You sure you don't want to just sit this one out?"

"Forces of nature! Our long-awaited victory is almost at hand! They've taken so much from us already; let's show them the power of what they're dealing with!"
With this declaration, the airships of Zeon almost seem to cross some sort of individual boundary. One moment, nothing. The next, the skies are teeming with all sorts of fantastic creatures - flying acorns, giant chameleons, flying beetles, crystalline creatures exuding electricity, mushrooms sending wafts of toxic spores into the air. The most obvious threats, however, are the enormous, bony fish swimming calmly through the air.
All of these creatures, no matter how unusual it may be, seem to be capable of shooting projectile weapons and laser blasts.
"You should have stayed at home on the throne."

The Center - attacking the meteor
no subject
The humans were more resilient than she gave them credit for. With a noise of irritation, Viridi watches as they make their way inevitably towards the bomb.
"You've done well so far, but I think you'll find this is more than you're prepared to deal with. I'm warning you now; you have exactly ten minutes to get out of blast range."
Even her forces seem to be vacating the area now. With the exception of one lone figure... One flame-headed creature with an impressive cape. Even as the ships fire, it darts around, its cape billowing wide to absorb any shots that it can intercept. Captain Flare seems to be the last line of defense for the Reset Bomb...
For when the ships get close enough, it becomes quite clear where exactly they need to aim. Five dully glowing points scattered across the head of the bomb.
no subject
Garviel himself engages the flame-headed creature, firing one-handed at him while the other hand brandishes a chainsword, obviously challenging him.

Pantheon HO!
"Well, well, there I was with my back turned for just a few decades, wiping out the last of the rabble defying me here in the Underworld, and look what's happening! Pretty Palutena and all the little humans are squabbling over a little bomb dropped from the skies by Rosebud's minions. My, I have been missing out on a lot in the human world, haven't I? Or was this a show planned out just for little ol' me? You shouldn't have.
I've returned as good as new and as good as the Ruler of Hell can be."
Re: Pantheon HO!
The level of disdain in the Angel of Light's voice was beyond exceptional. Borne of a long anger towards the newest ruler of hell - the kind only a former goddess could muster.
Re: Pantheon HO!
Just what happened since the good ol' days?"

Viridi's voice is punctuated by a minor explosion as a Lurchthorn headbutts one of the airships.
"Go away, Hades. I'm busy."
