Elizabeth stares at him for a moment, then her eyes narrow slightly.

"Did you... actually say 'rainbow space marine'?"

[goddamngrenades]

"...We kinda had really bright colored armor for stealth operatives, y'know?"

[tearmeanewone]

"...Bright colors for stealth operatives. How about that." At least it wasn't outer space full of rainbows.

"Well, I'm guessing that because you're a marine you know how to fire a gun. And I'm pretty good at stealth operations myself. Maybe we'll work on something together sometime."

[goddamngrenades]

"I just wore the armor, I didn't design it." He shrugs. "Figure our Uniform will be a little more subdued here but that's fine. I was under the impression we were gonna be paired up. Partners."

[tearmeanewone]

"Partners?" This is clearly new information to her, and she doesn't look thrilled. She's only had one person she's considered to be a partner, and that's Booker. It would always be Booker, and only him.

"Gosh, that sounds like it could be really great, but I'm not the best partner. For anybody, really. I usually work by myself."

[goddamngrenades]

"And I used to have a squad till- well let's just say shit went bad real quick." He hadn't really tried his hand at a proper partnership since then. "We'll figure it out."

[tearmeanewone]

Elizabeth arches an eyebrow, clearly not thrilled that apparently York is making this decision for her despite her clearly stated reservations.

"Well I used to have a partner too, and I lost him. Not really in a rush to 'figure it out' again."

[goddamngrenades]

"I meant the Order of Justice thing. Whether we work together or solo, man, that depends on what needs doing more than anything else, right? I figure we work on our own to start we'll cover more ground." Backups' wrothwhile but they can both get around pretty quick, right?

[tearmeanewone]

"Yeah, that's what I was talking about-- what'd you think I was talking about?" This just got a little odd.

"Alright, I'm willing to be flexible while we both get our feet planted in the Order. I'm not against giving it a try, I guess."

[goddamngrenades]

"Could be worse. We could end up working for a nutjob."

[tearmeanewone]

She gives a short laugh and picks up her sandwich. "No kidding. General Ravani wouldn't let that happen on her watch, I can promise you that."

[goddamngrenades]

"We'll see who we get saddled with. Should be someone decent, you know?" He shrugs, scrubbing at the back of his neck.
