Fortunately, Mira was able to set the record straight with him just the night prior, so she wasn't quite as worried about it as Beth seemed to be, though the weapon still nagged at the back of her mind whenever she thought about her fight against him. Nevertheless, she wasn't in the mood to talk about other people when she was about to go out with Beth, who she was much more interested in. She shifted around in her chair as she tried to think of a proper question to ask, eventually, she just decided to make small talk. "Maybe... Anyway, how have you been doing these last couple of weeks?"</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Mira had asked Beth the same question earlier on the holocomm, but the older pilot figured she could just expand on her answers. “Let’s see... well, like I mentioned earlier I went to Boston. One of my brothers and two of my nieces are having birthdays this month, so as usual we combined it into one big family gathering. It was nice because we had some people from dad’s side of the family come, and we don’t see them too often. Overall, it really helped me unwind a bit.<br/><br/>“Also, my mech practice is going well—I’ve got this obstacle course sort of thing I use as a baseline, basically it involves making a lot of tricky maneuvers and hitting a few difficult shots. I was only half a second off my best time, which is a lot better than the three seconds when I resumed practicing before the prelims.<br/><br/>“That’s about it. I got calls from my parents and then each of my siblings last night—they were all watching the match live and needless to say I got them all worried. But anyway, how’s things with your family?”
