Elisa was definitely mentally kicking herself for not opening up to Graf earlier or even approaching him once while she’d been with the unit. There really was no excuse; she had plenty of opportunity, and it wasn’t like he’d put up a huge ‘go away’ sign. Maybe it was just the situation that had finally presented itself and created that opportunity. Either way, she was glad that the pair of them had got to talking. Even just seeing the change in Graf was a good start.<br/><br/>“It sounds like a good idea, actually.” She agreed as her mind raced over what he was saying, matching it up against the map and the known layout of the base. It also means that you’re effectively shielding your lancemates, making yourself the first target, which makes sense. Not only can your<em>Marauder</em>better take a hit then they can, but it also means that if there are some unpleasant surprises you can better hold them then the light ‘Mechs would.” Elisa rubbed her chin as she ran over the possibilities.<br/><br/>“Either way, I still think it’d be a good idea to use your cover wisely, and don’t keep Hiro or Mina bottled up too long. Once you’re on-fled and have the defences onto you, then let them loose. They can do a lot of damage that way, and Mina’s<em>Locust</em>is going to be especially capable against any infantry or even personnel that escape the barracks.”<br/>
