"Kuroda Glasson. I'm stepping in to fight for Neo New Zealand, since they haven't had much luck finding a strong pilot of their own this year. That and Neo America already had someone they were specially training for this year, plus that government isn't all too fond of me anymore."<br/><br/>He took a step back after he was done shaking her hand, pulling his hood down since it was probably considered rude to have it up during a conversation. "Shame to hear your people don't care so much for the chivalrous knight stuff anymore, though. George de Sand was all about handling strength with honor and integrity."
