“I suppose its likely you and Mike will have the same opinion on the plasma cannons,” Beth said. “But given that I rely on my cannons as both a secondary attack and missile defense, I figure I can use all the information and opinions I can get—as long as I’m not imposing or anything, I know you’ve been busy.<br/><br/>“But I think you two might have a lot to teach each other—Mike’s sharp and he’s got decades of practical experience, and you’ve shown with the<em>Einenlancer</em>that you have a lot of creativity and the brains to capitalize on it. I’ll send along his contact info with the blueprints and let him know you might be in touch. Who knows, with the two of you exchanging ideas maybe both our mechs will become that much more badass,” she said, grinning at the thought.
