Numina Inversion - Ignition Stage [Video]

[Anna withdraws her hand from the mirror before her, then folds her arms and nods. She takes a paper plate with fishbones on it and heads for her flower.]

I got the ANIMa working. My hypothesis was correct - any psionic brain will work as the catalyst, and the monsters here with telepathic blasts weren't exactly a match for a bitch with a pistol.

Without an Anchor, I can't actually enter the machine safely, but it is picking up and intensifying my psychic resonance when I wear my Cap, and it is picking up my connections to all of my female allies back home. I'm not happy that it's just them - motherly love makes an AMAZING weapon in this - but it's enough.

[She pauses to snap some bones off of her fish and push them into the soil near her flower and the Vine]

So I'm going to need a psychic Anchor at some point to put this thing through it's paces properly. Actual psychic ability isn't actually needed, just a gift for dream interpretation and practical psychology. And a close friendship and trust, of course - my relationship to my Anchor will form the chassis of this thing.

By the way, the flowers and the Vine seem to like using fish bones and scraps for fertilizer. Just thought I'd mention it.

That is exactly what I am saying. I'm an ANIMa Pilot, a psychonaut. The motto of my unit was "Love is our weapon."

That's... [ She chooses her words carefully, so as not to sound judgmental at all. ] We don't have anything like that in my world.

I figured it wasn't a common technique. We juryrigged these things as a weapon of last resort against a foe that... well, physical weaponry was ineffective against them.

I can imagine that would make things difficult.

[ The reply is automatic, really. She can't imagine an enemy that wouldn't be vulnerable to physical attacks — even a Cylon Centurion can be destroyed with armor-piercing rounds. ]
