It had always been the ironic thing; Lash had never been a big fan of the great outdoors and nature in general, preferring to be cooped up in oil-stained, polluted factories. Yet she was at her strongest in the forest and mountains, places that most others could barely follow. Commanding Officer powers had their way with irony.
Hinoto-Ri didn't have as much forest, but the park was hard to miss. In fact, the city was a strange place, but at least it was interesting, if a little boring. It wasn't too long before she ran into Yamato as she walked from tree to tree, standing from a branch, and watching what was happening. True, most people would (stupidly) assume it was a man fighting for his life with a giant beast, but Lash prided herself in observation. She'd research the other COs she'd be fighting with any intel she could get. For all her immaturity, she was smart and well learned. Just not...polite and used to civilian, well, anything.
What she did know, however, were the screams and looks of people in distress. One could say that she was very good at them, and this man, while fighting, had facial features that didn't look like 'guy who's afraid of what is going on.' So she continued to watch silently, for as long as she could.
Ten seconds later (a new record!), she blurted out, "So is he your pet or somethin'?" If Yamato looked up, Lash was sitting down, dangling her legs over a tree branch that looked way too thin to be able to support her weight properly.
