NPC-Ange(0)<Speaker>Angelia</Speaker>||:Not bad. I came fully prepared to lose another arm. +Also, while I don't really care about cosmetics, can't you at least make it look... less clunky?
NPC-Ange(0);NPC-shaw(4)<Speaker>Shaw</Speaker>||:I'm a Slav. This is our style. +If you're not happy with it, go find someone else. Or better yet, don't lose your limb to begin with.
NPC-Ange(0)<Speaker>Angelia</Speaker>||:You think I could help it?
()<Speaker></Speaker>||<SE1>ClothingUp</SE1>:Shaw waves her hand dismissively and plops herself down on her chair. +Ange glances at her, then peers across the room at the workbench, which is currently unoccupied but otherwise covered in all sorts of parts.
NPC-Ange(0)<Speaker>Angelia</Speaker>||:So, what are you up to?
NPC-Ange(0);NPC-shaw(0)<Speaker>Shaw</Speaker>||:I have a new idea.
NPC-Ange(0)<Speaker>Angelia</Speaker>;NPC-shaw(0)||:Oh?
NPC-Ange(0);NPC-shaw(0)<Speaker>Shaw</Speaker>||:Something better than AK-12... No, maybe not better, but it's certainly worth a try. +Aren't you always preaching to me that Dolls shouldn't be just weapons? It'll be different this time, Anna. +She'll be the manifestation of all my design concepts. She may even... make my dream come true.
NPC-Ange(0)<Speaker>Angelia</Speaker>;NPC-shaw(0)||:...I have a feeling I'm inviting trouble, but just out of curiosity, what is your dream?

NPC-shaw(0)<Speaker>Shaw</Speaker>||:Yes?
AK15(0)<Speaker>AK-15</Speaker>||:I need a partner.
()<Speaker></Speaker>||:AK-15 looks steadily at Shaw, her crimson eyes flashing sharply.
NPC-shaw(0)<Speaker>Shaw</Speaker>||:A partner? +That's rich coming from someone who just backed out of a partnership. +...What brought this on?
AK15(0)<Speaker>AK-15</Speaker>;NPC-shaw(0)||:Incident Zero...
AK15(0);NPC-shaw(0)<Speaker>Shaw</Speaker>||:Hm?
AK15(0)<Speaker>AK-15</Speaker>;NPC-shaw(0)||:...Incident Zero would not have been such a catastrophic failure if I had a commander who could put my abilities to effective use.
AK15(0);NPC-shaw(0)<Speaker>Shaw</Speaker>||:You want a partner who can sort out everything and make all the decisions for you so that you can focus on fighting and don't have to worry about anything else? +Don't you think you're being unrealistic?
AK15(0)<Speaker>AK-15</Speaker>;NPC-shaw(0)||:No.
NPC-shaw(5)<Speaker>Shaw</Speaker>||:...Ha, interesting. +What makes you so sure?
()<Speaker></Speaker>||:AK-15 answers matter-of-factly as she takes a step back slowly and directs her gaze at the corner of the room.
AK15(0)<Speaker>AK-15</Speaker>||:Because you have already created her.
()<Speaker>???</Speaker>||:...
()<Speaker></Speaker>||<SE1>AVG_footsteps_woodfloor</SE1>:A silver-haired Doll strolls out with a mischievous smile from a place that escaped even Angelia's notice.
RPK16(4)<Speaker>???</Speaker>||<SE1>Stop_AVG_loop</SE1>:You really are the most powerful T-Doll in the entire Neo-Soviet Union. There's just no hiding from you, is there? What a pity, the surprise is ruined. +There are quite a lot of beings with clairvoyance in human mythologies, does this make you one of them?
NPC-shaw(0)<Speaker>Shaw</Speaker>||:...
AK15(0)<Speaker>AK-15</Speaker>||:Half a month ago, Nadia told me you were still busy working on the Wolf Pack Project. +But AN-94 and AK-12 have already gone into service, so you shouldn't have much demanding work. +That is, unless you spontaneously decided to start working on a new Doll.
NPC-shaw(5)<Speaker>Shaw</Speaker>||:Heh... Aren't you full of surprises today, Strapping Sherlock?
()<Speaker></Speaker>||:After making a joke at AK-15's expense, Shaw closes her eyes.
NPC-shaw(0)<Speaker>Shaw</Speaker>||:Introductions are in order, Pan... RPK-16.
RPK16(0)<Speaker>RPK-16</Speaker>||:Pleasure to meet you, AK-15. +I am RPK-16, Unit 4 of the Wolf Pack Project, codename "Silver Fox". I'll be your partner.
AK15(0)<Speaker>AK-15</Speaker>;RPK16(0)||:Unit 4... of the Wolf Pack Project?
AK15(0);RPK16(6)<Speaker>RPK-16</Speaker>||:Indeed. AN-94 is obviously Unit 1. +That makes you Unit 2, AK-12 Unit 3, and I, the youngest of the sisters, am Unit 4.

AK15(0);RPK16(5)<Speaker>RPK-16</Speaker>||:Yes?
AK15(0)<Speaker>AK-15</Speaker>||:...
NPC-shaw(0)<Speaker>Shaw</Speaker>||:Go on, speak your mind. +I want to know what you think.
AK15(0)<Speaker>AK-15</Speaker>||:Your physical specs are inferior to AK-12's. +...You're not equipped with the Wolf Eye System either. +Your performance doesn't even reach our average benchmark.
()<Speaker></Speaker>||:AK-15 is merely listing out the facts with no intention to mock or insult. +Although she has deduced RPK-16's existence, it still comes as quite a shock when she finally meets her in person.
AK15(0)<Speaker>AK-15</Speaker>||:You... are Doctor Shaw's latest work?
RPK16(6)<Speaker>RPK-16</Speaker>||:Yes. I am her aspiration; her treatise on Dolls.
()<Speaker></Speaker>||:RPK-16 meets AK-15's gaze cheerfully and answers with confident certainty.
RPK16(4)<Speaker>RPK-16</Speaker>||:My creation will mark the peak of her career, and I will be the ultimate weapon for proving Persica's mistake. +—Does it make you feel better if I say that?
NPC-shaw(5)<Speaker>Shaw</Speaker>||:Pffft... Humph. +Yep, there you go, AK-15. +This is my newest design—poor specs and full of bull. +She doesn't even hold a candle to AK-12. If you're not happy with this partner, I'll have to think of something else.
AK15(0)<Speaker>AK-15</Speaker>||:...
()<Speaker></Speaker>||:In response to Shaw's sarcastic but loaded remark, AK-15 falls silent.
AK15(0)<Speaker>AK-15</Speaker>||:What can you do?
AK15(0);RPK16(4)<Speaker>RPK-16</Speaker>||:As you wish, I will play to your strengths and make the most out of your ability. +I will not hold you back or give you tasks that you're not suited to... Or put it this way—you won't have to worry about anything else because I'll solve all the problems. +All you need to do is charge ahead and be unstoppable. +...Like you've always done.
AK15(0)<Speaker>AK-15</Speaker>;RPK16(4)||:...Can you really do that?
RPK16(6)<Speaker>RPK-16</Speaker>||:Who knows? Maybe it was all false advertising?
()<Speaker></Speaker>||<SE1>ClothingUp</SE1>:With a smile, RPK-16 sticks out a hand to AK-15, the way all partnerships begin.
()<Speaker></Speaker>||<SE1>ClothingUp</SE1>:AK-15 scrutinizes RPK-16's face motionlessly. In the end, she takes the hand and shakes it.
RPK16(2)<Speaker>RPK-16</Speaker>||:Do you trust me, AK-15?
