Tabane: Ch-chotto matte, Chi-chan~! I did no such thing!
Chifuyu: He got inside YOUR IS!!!
Tabane: ... he what...?
Chifuyu: ... *glares at Ichika*
Ichika: I saw an IS unit... and it seemed to talk to me...
Tabanae: ... 0.0 Y-you heard it talk to you?
Ichika: Y-yeah, so I went up to it and touched it. A flash of light and I felt my body like it was on fire... and then, I was a GIRL!
Tabane: *trying REALLY hard not to burst out laughing* .. I ... I never thought...
Chifuyu: So you DO know something!! Spill it!
Tabane: H-hold on... *turns and types in some data, stealing glances at Ichika's surprising development* You actually make a cute girl, Ichika~
Ichika: *covers her chest* Mou, Tabane-nee!
Chifuyu: *looks ready to break Tabane's head*
Tabane: *after a few moments* ... I was right...
Chifuyu: ... about what?
Tabane: Gomen, Icchan - I mean, Ikkun. *snicker* Looks like my 'kids' are playing a mean trick on you.
Ichika: ... eh?
Tabane: Remember that the cores defaulted to only allow women to pilot them for some reason? Well, YOU can apparently pilot as well, even originally being a guy. So - to keep their 'tradition' they....decidedtoturnyouintoagirl.

Ichika: EEEEEEHHHHHHH!?!?
Chifuyu: Fix this, now!!
Tabane: ... actually Chi-chan, they already 'fixed' Ikkun.
Chifuyu: ... explain.
Tabane: Well, the short version is ... 'Ikkun' was
supposed to be 'Icchan'.
