~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

　　For as long as the gutsy, no nonsense mechanic Nova can recall, they have lived a rather uneventful life in a mining facility on the planet Ikarus.

　　The best part of their day is the arrival of Mining Team A after their own long, grueling shift, where they finally have the opportunity to see the person that makes their heart beat just a bit faster:

　　The enormous mechanized humanoid that houses an advanced AI known as MARC.

　　The two share a deep bond with one another, and dream of leaving the facility one day to travel across the stars.

　　But when a sudden disruption forces the two to temporarily part, they decide to take matters into their own hands to make their last night together something special and memorable.
