I wouldn't call him shy. [Paranoid maybe. But it wasn't paranoia when everyone really was out to get them!] He's just getting a feel for things.

Close quarters and teamwork won't be the problems for him. That was the X-Men way of life. [She smiles a little. It wasn't always pleasant, but she still has fond memories of her X-family.] I'm not saying he has problems though. [You kind of were.]

[pain_train]

Cautious, I guess. There's nothing wrong with that. I think Ordis is kinda like that too.

Everyone has problems. [Shrug. It's normal.] Just means you've lived your life.

[passingthrough]

[Cautious! That's a good word that doesn't make him sound off!]

Then I lived it extra hard. [She smiles a little.]

[pain_train]

Yeah, I know that feeling. [Wrath has capital-P problems, but she normally paves them over with sunny optimism. If nothing else, there are none of the sensory cues here to set her off. Thankfully.]

Means you're badass.

[passingthrough]

That sounds so much better than damaged.

[pain_train]

Yeah. Way better to look at it as having proved your survival capabilities.

[passingthrough]

You've got this all figured out, don't you?

[pain_train]

Yeah!

I... kinda had to.

[Nope, be positive! Positive, damnit!]

Just gotta keep going, man.

[passingthrough]

[Is it bad that she's more curious about the flicker that isn't so positive? Not that she'll ask Wrath to dwell there.] Keep walking.

It's what a friend of mine told me once when I didn't know what to do anymore.

[pain_train]

Yeah, that's the best advice.

You just keep going. Even when you think you can't. Cause that's what you have to do. You just go on.

[passingthrough]

[She nods, completely understanding that.] It was easier back home. I mean it was also much, much harder there, but there was a mission. It's harder to keep yourself going without that. Even in the prison my mission was getting everyone out. [She doesn't feel like she even has that now. She could, but there was just something so unfulfilling and futile about it last time.]

[pain_train]

Yeah. I know that feeling. I've been... trying to find a mission since I got turfed out of the army. Even when my back is fixed, I'm not sure. I guess being the best first officer I can be is my mission now.

[passingthrough]

It sounds like a place to start. [She can't find a lot of meaning in being the best pilot here. Oh, she'll do her best for her crew and if an emergency actually popped up watch out! But even without her it just keeps flying where the Atroma want it and now she's a little redundant anyway with an extra pilot on board.] Seems like you're doing a good job so far. [If anything Vision and Wrath both seem great at morale.]

[pain_train]

Aw, thanks! [That really does mean a lot. Being the first officer here is pretty different from running a platoon in the army or the militia.]

We'll figure something out, I think. Fucked up situations have a way of springing up.

[passingthrough]

Well, fingers crossed. Let's hope for that. [She's kidding, but clearly The Stalker is now her fault.]

wrap?

[pain_train]

Give us something fun to do!
