Woah hey everybody! I'm Jin Aznable, super genius, and I guess I'm a part of this secret society too. Looks like you all hit the lottery! See, I'm a robotics engineer and I'm pretty much the coolest guy. I made a mistake redesigning this surgical unit I've been working with, and the model number was... this access number! Pretty freaky. So looks like I'm also a part of whatever this is.

I work with medical robotics, and I don't really have a specialty. So I've designed prosthetics, an artificial heart, and a lot of tools for micro surgery. Lasers and stuff, pretty cool. Other than that, uh, I like giant robot stuff. And I've got a kid, but I'd rather leave her out of my cool and weird secret society thing. Ha ha. Any questions?

Hey, just because I'm full of myself doesn't mean I can't pay attention to other people. I'll happily talk your ear off about how exceptional my daughter is, too.

Oh, hey, that's great. Let me know if you ever want a job in medical engineering, I'll put in a good word for you.

[sugoku]

I'll keep that in mind for the future. You never know when you're going to need to change careers in this city.

You have a daughter too? How old is she?

[amajin]

Yeah, especially with all this dangerous business going up.

Yeah, she's 17. She's pretty great. Smart, athletic, generous. Also, a total and complete brat. I guess she had to get something from me.

[sugoku]

She's 17? Just how old are you, Aznable?

[Sounds like a typical doting father. ]

[amajin]

Oh, sorry, I guess I ruined it. I'm a 40-year-old divorced dad. I'm still pretty good-looking, though. In case you're into dilfs.

[sugoku]

I'm not one to judge for age, but would your daughter be happy to hear you hitting on younger women?

[amajin]

I don't know, it's never come up! I'm kind of a lone wolf, and/or married to my work. Whichever keeps all my married coworkers from trying to hook me up with somebody.

I'm sure Yoko'd react the way she always reacts to me saying anything. Groaning, rolling her eyes, and dragging me away. She is a teenager, after all.

[sugoku]

Their annoyance is cutest at that age. You sound really proud of her.

I guess when you are married to your work, all you'd have is it and her.

[amajin]

It's true! She's never cuter than when she's trying to pretend I don't exist. Yeah, I'm proud of her. She's a good kid, I have no idea where she got it from.

I guess so... Work, her, and a lot of expensive giant mecha figures. Boy, you should see me in the summers when she goes to live with her mom. Those mecha figures aren't as fun to tuck into bed as Yoko is, but I guess they put up a lot less resistance about curfews.

[sugoku]

So you dream of building mecha's and then actually build models in your free time? Quite the devoted man, you are. That must be some collection by now.

I hope for your sake Yoko's not caught up in all of this business like we are.

[amajin]

Woah, woah, woah. Mostly I buy the really expensive ones, so I don't really have that many. The crappier ones kept breaking in moves. Or so my ex-wife told me... Plus, I like the actual metal ones you don't have to put together yourself a lot better.

Yeah, unfortunately, it looks like she is. Apparently she got her numbers like two weeks ago at an office holiday party and didn't tell me.
