Was not expecting to get that talk from him, Simmons quietly tapped into his personal log. Then again, the guy's been around here best part of a year, and I'm still thinking like he's some kinda stranger around here?
He's been here as long as I have, really. It's just an us vs. them thing.

He paused.

Everything ends sometime. I'll be okay. Not ( Read more... )

Thankful that her armor could pass for that of the Blue army, Lizzy kept to the sides of the canyon on her way from the Red base to the Blue team. That the building she had reached looked exactly like the Red base didn't even phase her, although she felt a mild dry amusement at it. These days her emotions got pushed to the back of her mind; she didn't have time to really feel more than momentary emotions with her "job."

Lizzy?

Yeah, Sil?

Are we still going to attempt to carry out the mission's objectives?

The innocent query set Lizzy's face into a sober, otherwise unreadable mask. I don't know, Silly. We'll have to see what happens. I have no doubt that Wyoming would carry out his threats if his lover's life is threatened again. I'll have to take some time to think about whether or not killing Connecticut is the right move to make.Epsilon was silent, but Lizzy could "feel" her AI's nod. Right now, her main problem was how to convince the Blue team that she wasn't an enemy, so that she would have somewhere in the canyon to go to ( ... )

And somewhere in the base, Simmons had his own objectives to attend to. Rather less than critical as these things went, but still.
Captain Flowers ran this place, after all. There had to be something around here to drink if he knew his commander... but no luck. Simmons gave up and helped himself to a coffee, sitting down with a sigh and staring across the room. He could see what was going on through the doorway; not that it was really going to help much, he thought. Clearing his head rather than blurring it out?

Hearing distant sounds, Lizzy headed in that direction with the intent of maybe meeting one member at a time. If she could convince one person...

She nearly walked right by the doorway that had most likely heralded the noise, but stopped and backed up a step, looking in at the soldier sitting down and holding the mug in his hand. Didn't look much like the cheery sort, but this was probably the best place to start now that she'd been seen.

"Excuse me," she spoke up politely- she was nothing if not polite. "Is there a commanding officer I would be able to speak to? Unless... you are one of the ranking officers for this base, of course?"

Simmons looked over at her. New recruit? Well, always room for one more. ...Especially now. For a moment, he considered just flat-out lying to her and saying he was the commander, but hell. Probably more trouble than it's worth.
"I don't know where the captain is," he said. "But I can take a message or whatever."
