Ves and Gloriana held their umpteenth debate about the merits of sending mech designers a lot closer to the action.
It was a debate that neither of them could win. Their life experiences caused them to develop opposing stances towards this subject. Since neither of them was willing to concede easily, they could never come to a consensus.
The couple was accustomed to these kinds of arguments. They eventually decided to drop the topic after they reiterated their stances and made futile attempts to convince each other.
"If there is nothing else, I will go on my way to give our three new assistants a tour." Gloriana told Ves. "I will also introduce them to our SF-02 and give them a quick instruction on how to work with the smart AIs."
He waved her on. "You can go ahead and do that. I need to have a talk with Alexa. See you later."
Several minutes later, Ves entered his design lab with his direct disciple in tow.
While Ves took his usual seat, Alexa Streon remained standing.
