Ranna's answer didn't really surprise Graff, it's many of the same thoughts that had been swirling inside his head for the past couple of months.  One could just call it a learning experience and fortunately it wasn't a costly one, but she was right that any mission you can walk your mech out of is a good mission.  Putting the last bolt in place for the piece of armor Graff steps back to grab another section.<br/><br/>"I'm sure Erich would agree with that, he barely made it back in."  Graff raised his hand to give a half wave to Aloy who just popped in as he walks to his own mech.  "But I will say I think escorting Janos out was the better plan than charging in to help Erich, Aloy hadn't made it to me yet for one.  Also Janos was the contract, not busting up an Assault lance."  It's kind of strange talking about the guy when he's right here but perhaps he's to engrossed in his work/play that he didn't hear.  Graff began bolting on the next piece, "I would like to know that simulation trick, I'll take as much training as I can get at this point."<br/><br/>Graff's not as picky about repairing his own mech as some technicians, he knows how to repair mechs and has to do it from time to time but fresh pairs of eyes and hands are always welcome.
