History
Pre-Twilight Mirage
As a Divine, Anticipation's focus was on the simulation of scenarios that the Divine Fleet as a whole. This might include figuring out what planets can be sustainable, or the literal physical direction the fleet should go. This job became dramatically more important in the last thousand years of the fleet, during the decline of the Divines.
Anticipation decayed over time. Its ability to calculate slowed down to the point where it completely stalled, as though it's stuck in a rendering or buffering status. Before their death the ship's sections were able to fan out and signal or call to the other members of the fleet. Now they cannot.

Appearance
During the Divine Fleet
Anticipation's form, linked to that of her ship, Thyrsus, is inspired by the funnels of the nu Gundam. It is formed of long rectangular floating pieces, which sit together in a fan shape or can spread out, forming shields in between them. There is no complete separation in this form, but they can form goal posts that create shields to protect other parts of the fleet: a much less elegant version of Thyrsus, comparatively. There are layers similar to a pocket knife that are still connected but can move. The body of the Divine itself, which died, is now considered the elevator between the different levels.
