The unsealing simulator pod reveals out a young man pulling off the mock helmet of their normal suit, breathing out in relief.

And giving you a smile as he bows his head lightly "Everyone else wasn't kidding, you have skills despite that band." The green haired boy pulled themselves off the sim, grasping out at your hand as you helped them out and then shook firmly.

It wasn't easy, And you knew for a fact that you won by the skin of your teeth but taking advantage of some of Amalfi's trepidation with some bold action yielded you the-.

"The hell?!" A voice racked from behind you as a sneering silver-haired young man pulled you aside from the pilot "Nicol, how did you lose to the damn Natural?!"

"I-It was fair and square, Yzak..." The boy rubbed his arm as he sighed "Moon has good battle intuition-." He dejectedly explained before being rudely interrupted as the sneering you g man harrumphed, shooning their head as their hair bobbed softly.

"Listen, you've got to keep up if you want to be the best of the class. Which means not losing to-." As he seemed to precipitate in calling you some sort of name, the shoulder of the sneering young man is grasped from behind.

"That's enough, Yzak. I watched the footage. The Natural bested Nicol fairly."

And... Just as the face of the Amalfi boy lights up as Yzak just unhands the grasp from their shoulder while scoffing.

You can say this is probably the best timing for him to show.
