excuse me, but wouldn't part of decommissioning and mothballing a warmech be disconnecting and disposing of the onboard nuke plant?

like, i'm pretty sure we didn't leave the nuclear reactor onboard the USS Enterprise when we scrapped her

If there's anything I've learned from watching Gundam series (and various other mech shows), all decommissioned mechs are just abandoned in completely random locations, and they're all super special prototypes that are more powerful than any other mechs being used in the field.

e: oh and they're all also left in a perfectly operational state

It pretty much was.
But as the dude says he will never reject anything offered to him. If some of the girls want a relationship he will not refuse, which is kind of lovely in it's own way. But most of the Turbine girls are not actually in a relationship with him.

Wait I could've sworn when they were introduced they pretty much said they were the harem crew

Thats the official state largely for their protection. All are ether his daughters or wifes officially. But most don't have a relationship with him. Turbines is a very big shipping group with hundreds of members, all of them offically his wives. A few have never met him.

Not even hundreds. Tens of thousands.

And the mech Tekkadan found wasn't so much decommissioned as just buried beneath tons of rubble. Nobody even knew where it was thanks to the whole Calamity War thing. Thus, no chance to remove the reactor.

Being fair you are supposed to think McGillis is creepy. Lets not forget he murdered this girls brother and laughed about it to his face.

Your supposed to think it's wrong. At least they are not in an actual physical relationship. And when you find out more about McGillis you can get some of craziness.
