“People have died when they make that connection.” Odetta grins back.
“Okay! Nobody is dying here! No more troubles!” Aurora is realizing she’s going to take the role of big sister here too. She’s younger than both of the girls she’s scolding.
“Cool, they have history, if only the person who recruited them could’ve told us about it.” Vera sarcastically throws shade at you.
“I had no clue…” You have no clue now still.
“I mean, what are the chances?” Scarlet can’t blame you.
“True, still, next time, I’ll do some background checks.” Vera wants to make sure you’re not bringing sickos here.
“We’re literally the people who bring that information, prick.” Neko deadpans.
“D-Don’t call me a prick, weirdo!” Vera went there immediately. “I can figure it out on my own! It just takes me a couple of days of work, that’s all….”
“Spider Head thinks she can look us up online, how cute and naive! Can someone give Ms. Spider Head a hug?” Odetta mocks.
“Johnny. Johnny should.” Vera wants a hug.
“Everyone. The codenames.” Suan De intervenes to piss off Vera.
“What do you want your nickname to be, Mr. Galactic?” Liu asks politely.
“It might come as a SURPRISE, but as an [Astronaut], it is IMPERATIVE that it be related to what goes beyond the CLOUDS! Something that SPEAKS TO YOUR SOUL, and reaches new HEIGHTS. Let your [EXPANSIVE MIND] TAKE CONTROL.” Galactic wants something really cool. “A SUCCESSFUL [SQUADRON] is a CREATIVE [SQUADRON].”
“Major Tom!” The Markgician suggests.
“Oh! I get it!” Scarlet finds this one great!
“Works for me!” Liu agrees to it too!
“...This HUMBLE [SPACEMAN] has no complaints.” Galactic nods. You find it funny how he has to bend half of his body to nod with the suit and all, it’s more like a bow.
“There we go, all figured out!” You clean your hands.
“I have a question!” The Markgician raises his hand.
“Yes?” You give him the word.
“Can I do a couple of my tricks?” The Markgician wants to do a show now that everyone is here.
“Sure, the floor is yours.” You think this will raise morale! Suan De wanted for you to decline. “But before we start, are you sure you want to go as the Markgician? Everyone knows you by it, so it won’t do much.”
