At the dormitory, everything were as lively is it was. Though it was more so of a controlled chaos than anything really.

K-11 eventually got caught by Jericho with a help from a few other T-Dolls, eventually having her IED confiscated.

(and it was discovered that the IED is in fact, not armed, surprisingly. Though K-11 was still sent back into her dorm room under supervision by other T-Doll as punishment)

Sten, the one who's been chasing after Skorpion across the dormitory for what felt like over 10 minutes, finally catch up to Skorpion and managed to calm her down. Whereas for MDR in the other hand? She was quickly confronted and scolded by Jericho soon after dealing with K-11's IED shenanigan.

But after the chaos duo has been settled, nothing much has going on within the dormitory aside from conversations and discussion among the resting T-Dolls.

"Hm♪♪ I wonder where Miss Makarov has gone to?"

Asked the small petite T-Doll, who wore a black dress with a short skirt, black gloves, long light brown hair along with her eyes that shares the same color, a white maid headband, and a smile pattered on her lips.

"I've last saw Makarov going out the dormitory, told me that she saw something leaving through the doorway and wanted to investigate it herself."

A calm, careful, mint-green colored eyed T-Doll answered her, who wore a white dress with a floral patterned mint-green overdress along with a white cropped jacket with white furry cuffs and a metal pauldron worn on her right arm with a red star crest on it, wears a black leather belt with pouches and a Matryoshka Dangle, over-the-knee leather heeled boots with black & white kneepads, and a white imperial wool hat.(I genuinely can't tell what kind of hat Fedorov is wearing despite my research. If you have any clue, do tell. - Author)

"Ah, I see! Danke, Fedorov. Perhaps I should go look for her. To see how she does in her little investigation♪."

With that, the mint-green eyed T-Doll, Fedorov, watches as the small petite T-Doll made her way to the automatic doors.

"-Geez, Jericho! Alright-! Alright. Ow-! I've already told you that I was really bored and just wanted to do something other than to stand around and do nothin'!"

Says the heterochromia eyed T-Doll with a silvery-white haired T-Doll with some hair tied up on one side into a side-tail and accented with a neon pink highlight, who wore a fashionable and modern outfit consist of a large black and dark blue techwear-esque jacket with neon pink trimming, under which is a thinner gray soft-shell jacket. For legwear, she sports a black skirt over a set of black tights. A beret, a pair of black high-top sneakers, and numerous pouches and belts to top it all up.

"Miss MDR, If you're truly that bored, why don't you--

The dark-pinkish eyed T-Doll was about to scold the T-Doll in question once more when she's interrupted by-

*Click-!*

!

A loud, clear sound of the PA system activating quickly echoed across the base, abruptly interrupting everyone within the dormitory as the T-Dolls pauses themselves to stare up towards the speakers hanging at the ceiling corners of the dormitory.

"Huh?"

"E-Eh?"

"Oh-?"

Soon as the sound of the PA system's activation stopped, a calm, lively voice of a young woman appears through the speakers.

{" Greetings, T-Dolls! This is your new commander speaking. "}

The calm, lively young woman's voice continues.

{" You may called me Commander Anastasia, or Anasta for short. After the reassignment of the previous commander, I've been personally assigned and entrusted by Miss Helian to assess and maintain this sector from now on. "}

{" And to honor your previous commander, I shall do the best of my ability of doing so so. Hopefully. "}

...

The faint but barely audible sound of a sigh can be heard from the speakers before the calm, lively young woman's voice returned.

{" I believe in order for all of us to have a proper introduction, I need everyone to gather at the main hall of the base. Considered that as your first order~ "}

{" This is Commander Anasta, Bu-Bye~! "}

With that, the PA system turned off with a loud, clear sound soon after.

.

.

.

Meanwhile at the command room.

*Bam-*

Anasta let out a long tired groan as she fell back in the office chair, with a hint of creaking under her weight after retracting the PA system microphone on the panel that placed below the large flat screen.

"Blyat... That sounded so- damn- cringy on the mic for whatever reason..."

She says as she went to stretch her arms around.

"What could possibly be 'cringy' about it, Commander?"

Makarov asked, raising an eyebrow as she stood calmly beside Anasta.

"It was a great announcement for being your first."

"Ah..... I supposed...

I don't know. Could've just be me."

Anasta let out a long yawn for a moment.

Makarov spoke once more, curious.

"Also... Are you, by chance, from the NSU? ... Curiously speaking, Commander."

Anasta looked back at Makarov with a smirk.

"Da, Makarov. I'm indeed from the NSU."

Hearing this, Makarov raise her eyebrows.

"I see..."

Anasta raise an eyebrow at Makarov as she rest her elbow on the back of her seat.

"What? Is it because I kept saying 'blyat' at every opportunity I get?"

Anasta question as she reach up to the back of her head to briefly caressing her own flowing platinum hair.

"And here I thought that my dazzling hair is already enough of a proof~"

...

...

.....🦗

Both the rookie Commander and the small T-Doll stares silently at each other for a moment.

With Anasta staring at Makarov with a silly grin, whereas Makarov stares back with narrowed red eyes.

...

"...We should go meet the other T-Dolls down at the main hall, just as you said earlier, before... Your fatigue will took a toll on you, Commander."

Makarov spoke first, breaking the ice in the air between them.

Anasta simply follow suit by nodding back frantically as an imaginary sweat slowly drips from her temple.

"Yep, Yep. Definitely..."

Anasta spoke before letting out a small yawn.

While Anasta still retain her lively voice. The lack of rest and fatigue has finally began to truly take effect on her despite already consuming half of the large glass mug of the coffee on the wide table.

Standing up from the office chair, Anasta face towards Makarov.

"Lets go now."

Anasta gestures.

Makarov simply nods.

With that, both Anasta and Makarov made their way out of the command room, with Makarov leading the path forward with Anasta follow suit.

After exiting the room, the duo made their way down the hallway.

...

"... Sorry for mentioning this now- but were you about to shoot me with your pistol in your hand earlier?"

"-It was merely for precaution and measurement.

Did I accidentally point it at you Commander?"

"No-- Ahh~ nevermind... Just pretend I didn't asked you that."

Makarov shrugs.

"Whatever you say Commander."

|Time : 10:04 AM

.

The duo finally arrived back at the main hall, exiting through the North-side hallway.

When they did, the duo is greeted by a band of exactly 13 individuals all gathered at the center of the main hall, seeming waiting patiently for their arrival.

To Anasta, the 13 individuals were a sea of unfamiliar T-Dolls of different eye colors, hairs, outfits, height, and personalities.

To Makarov, those same individuals were her friends and comrades-in-arms, ready to fight for another. Even until death.

"-Everyone, look! It's Makarov! And... The new Commander?"

Once one of the point out to the duo's exiting through the north side hallway, everyone within the hall retract their attention towards the duo's arrival.

"My~♪ So that's the new Commander. A lively one too."

"Wooah~h, look at that~! She's a lot more dazzling than I expected! I'm~ma need to take a good picture of this!"

"She looks quite beautiful-!"

"That's our new Commander. Hmm, perhaps Kolibri will love to interest with her."

"A rather properly dressed individual. By the looks of it, she seemed to carry herself quite well. Though there's a sense of liveliness to it."

"Hah! So this is our new Commander, eh?" *hic*

"M-miss AK-47-! Please stop drinking your Vodka! That's our new Commander!"

The T-Dolls were to quick to express themselves for their new Commander. Some were surprised of their new Commander's appearance, others were curious about their new Commander, and others were interested about their new Commander.

As the Duo finally arrived before the band of T-Dolls, Makarov turns around to face Anasta.

"As you may have seen from your earlier visit to the dormitory, these are all my friends and comrades-in-arms."

Makarov said as she took a few side steps to make way for Anasta, in which Anasta steps forward to scans across the various T-Dolls standing before her with her eyes in curiosity and interest.

"I see."

Anasta said with a calm smile.

"Your fellow friends and comrades-in-arms here are quite the varieties and diversities~"

"I could say so, Commander."

Makarov replied.

When Anasta stood before the various T-Dolls, she put herself straight before waving to the T-Dolls with her hands.

"Hello everyone! As you can see right now, I'm indeed the new commander of this base."

Anasta said as she then places her hands against her own chest.

"As I've said earlier through the PA, my name is Anastasia or Anasta for short.

Anastasia is my first, 'Zoryana' is my middle, and Belaya is my last.

Thus; Anastasia 'Zoryana' Belaya. Keep it in mind, write it down, I do not care."

Anasta extends her palms towards the T-Dolls.

"I would love you girls to introduce yourself to me in your own ways. I like meeting with new people. Especially those with unique personalities and appearance!"

The T-Dolls looked at each other for a moment, perhaps to discuss whichever like to go first.

But eventually, a small hand raised from among the T-Dolls.

"My name is MP5-! Reporting for duty. I might be a bit small but I will definitely help out!"

Says the sma- The blue-eyed T-Doll named MP5, who wears a red beret with a brown bow attached to the side, a sleeveless dress with a red necktie and a small skirt along with a large red bow flowing on the back of her dress.

"An honor to have your help, MP5."

Anasta replied with a nod.

After MP5, another raises their hand.

"Gutten tag, Commander. My name is StG-44. Pleased to make your acquaintance.

Oh- and there's no need for a handshake or anything."

Says the green-eyed, long gold haired T-Doll, a black peaked cap, dark-blue colored uniform & coat, and quite amount of flashy accessories across her outfit.

"Quite a flashy looking individual you are, StG-44. And also your pleasantries is noted."

Anasta replied with a smile.

"I've strict regulation over my own hygiene Commander."

StG-44 replied to Anasta.

"I can see that."

Anasta nods.

After StG-44, another raises their hand once again while their other hand held onto an empty white bottle of vodka.

"Privet, new Commander! AK-47. Reporting for duty.

I'll be sure to show you what I can do on the world stage! Hahaha!"

Says the blue-eyed, long blonde-sh haired T-Doll with a grin on her lips, who wears a red beret with a yellow star crest on it and a guerilla style outfit.

"Privet to you too, AK-47. I like your enthusiasm!

And indeed, you've shown what you can do on the world stage."

Anasta replied with a smirk.

"Woah-"

AK-47 let out with a surprised look across her face.

"You speak русский!"

Anasta's smirk widens.

"Da. I'm from Neo-Soviet."

AK-47 grins.

"Hahaha! Its good to see a fellow comrade!"

After AK-47, more and more began to raise their hands.

"Hehe♪ I am thoroughly delighted to be able to meet you here, Commander. The name is PPK."

"Hello, Commander. I am Fedorov. I was once a medic and I am currently responsible for delivering long-ranged fire support. Your orders, please!"

"Ni hao Commander, I'm Type 56-1 assault rifle. I will annihilate all the enemies in your way!"

"Hello Commander! Skorpion submachine gun here! Give me a royal welcome! ...Don't be afraid, I'm really harmless."

"Hello Commander. My name is Sten. I've heard a bit about you at the main HQ. I will be in your care from now on."

"Greetings Commander. My name is Jericho. You've certainly carries yourself and fits the identity of a Commander."

"Commander of G&K! I'm K11, the emergency encounters specialist, please allow me to show you my talents!"

"Howdy Commander! Names MDR~ I've heard a few things about you on the Griffin Anonymous Message Board! Can I take a picture of you to upload on there later? Please~?"

...

"Hm?"

Anasta notices something.

"Where are the other 2?"

She asked as she turns around to the other T-Dolls.

"If you mean Kolibri and Thunder Commander.

Thunder refused to exit her dorm room so Kolibri have to go and attempt to get her out of the room."

Anasta raises her eyebrow.

"Thunder and Kolibri, hm?"

Soon after that, an audible sound of dragging and struggle slowly began to approach the main hall from the east side hallway.

"And I supposed... Speaking of the two..?"

Anasta spoke as she turns around towards the east side hallway.

There, a small petite T-Doll with a big white hat is seemingly dragging another petite though seemingly stoic T-Doll, slowly heading their way to the center.

"Come on Thunder-! It won't be that bad! Trust me! And even if it goes bad, I shall protect you from it!"

"..."

Anasta crosses her arms together.

"Huh.

Sorry for asking, but what's the deal with the T-Doll named Thunder?"

Anasta asked.

"Apology Commander. Thunder tend to be quite... Difficult to deal with."

Answered Jericho.

"Hm... I see."

Anasta simply nods,

though the way Anasta's gaze seemingly locked onto the dragged stoic T-Doll with a somewhat uncharacteristic focus for a brief moment suggest something else.

When the two finally arrived, the small petite T-Doll with the white hat finally brought the stoic T-Doll named 'Thunder' up her feet in front of Anasta.

"Apology for the delay! Miss Thunder can be--

The T-Doll pauses upon looking up towards Anasta with a shocked expression.

Then a few seconds later, the T-Doll immediately began to jump frantically beside Anasta.

"OH MY Szépség! You look so beautiful! Majestic!"

The T-Doll said in excitement and admiration. So much so that Anasta though she saw stars glowing on the T-Doll's eyes.

"Really you say~? I barely even use anything like makeup and stuff!"

Anasta smiles.

"Really?! Then how so?"

Anasta shot a smirk at the small petite T-Doll.

"Call it 'genetically gifted'~"

Both of them laugh momentarily with each other before Anasta finally return to her more calm demeanor.

"Anyway. I'm sure you've already know what you were going to do here, aren't you?"

The T-Doll brightly smiles.

"Of course I know Commander!"

The T-Doll briefly clears her throat(though more like clearing her auditory system and rather imitating a person clearing their throat since you know, she's a T-Doll).

"Greetings Commander! Standing before you is the one and only Kolibri, your most reliable protector and friend from now on!"

The T-Doll, now known as Kolibri, finishes with the same bright smile. So bright that it made Anasta mentally held her own chest.

After Kolibri, its is time for the last one. Thunder.

The small stoic, light blue haired T-Doll stood before Anasta, silently staring at her with her slightly narrowed dark-red eyes.

Anasta in respond simply crossed her arms together and return the stare with a smile on her lips.

For a moment, it was as if both of them were having a staring contest before Anasta eventually loses the contest after blinking a few seconds later. Because no way a normal human being like Anasta could win against a Tactical Doll in a staring contest, when the T-Doll could technically never ever blink.

Bu then, Anasta slowly bring herself to wave at the T-Doll and open her lips, was about to break the ice until the T-Doll before her suddenly decided speak first.

"-An unfamiliar face, are you new around here?"

The T-Doll spoke.

...

"...I apologize, that was supposed be your line."

The T-Doll finishes.

"...Eh?"

Anasta tilts her head for a moment, wasn't sure on how to respond to that before retracting.

"I'm sorry if I sound rude to you little one, but may you do at least an introduction of yourself to me now? Proper or not."

Anasta requested.

The T-Doll stares at Anasta for a moment before nodding.

"... Thunder. My name is Thunder."

The T-Doll finally says.

"Thunder, huh?"

Anasta repeat and nod at the T-Doll known as Thunder.

"Nice to meet you little one! As you may have heard from the speakers, I'm commander Anasta or Anasta for short."

Anasta crouch herself slightly down to the T-Doll's level, extending her palm to the T-Doll as she gave her a smile.

Thunder briefly stares at the palm and back up towards Anasta before Thunder finally accepts the handshake.

"There you go~"

Anasta spoke as she got back up straight.

"Wasn't so hard isn't it?"

Thunder briefly nods before replying.

"I supposed."

With that, Anasta turn and made her way back to Makarov's side.

"This should be everyone, right Makarov?"

Makarov nods.

"Indeed. This is everyone in the base."

Anasta clap her hands together.

"Alright! That should wrap it up."

She turns towards the T-Dolls.

"Thank you everyone for attending this face-to-face proper introduction with each other. I hope that you and I can work together in the future. And I'll be looking forward to it!"

"If you have any question, or need something, or anything, you're free to come to the command room."

Anasta look across the various T-Dolls for a moment before clapping her hands together once more.

"With that being said, all of you are dismissed. You're free to go now!"

With that, the T-Dolls began to leave to the east side hallway, with some of the T-Doll giving Anasta some last few words while some waves back at her.

After a few moments have passed, there's only 2 left. Anasta and Makarov.

...

*A really l~ong tired sigh*

Anasta presses her hand against her temple.

"What a tiring this day has become..."

Anasta simply says, in which Makarov replied.

"There's a personal quarter for you back at the north side hallway Commander."

Anasta turns around.

"Really? Where?"

Makarov turns away.

"I'll lead the way again Commander. I knew the location."

Anasta smirks.

" 'Course you do, you're were the Adjustant for Commander Pierce after all~"

Makarov brieftly looked back at Anasta from her shoulder with a faint smile before silently nods.

The duo made their way to the north side hallway.

As they do, Anasta briefly stop to look back towards the east side hallway.

"Hah..."

She lets out a sigh before muttering.

"What a great first day this has been..."

-Before Anasta finally turns and made her way down the hallway, following behind Makarov.

Author's Note

We've met once again readers!

Welcome to my another daily dose of 'Holy shit since when writing a character's personality and behavior this darn difficult'.

Once again, I do apologize for the long ahh update.

Again mostly due to how hard it is for me to try my best to write the characters as accurate as possible.

(And I darn hope that I didn't butcher the characters and able to meet your expectation) (⁠╥⁠﹏⁠╥⁠)

Which does led me to this question;

Do you prefer the characters to be as accurate as their canon counterpart? Or do you prefer them to have custom personalities?

Anyway, as you may have seen, I've somewhat rewritten the prologue. Check it I guess idk.
