Right, question.

Actually two.



First: Imagine you're being chased for a long time. You're unarmed, and yer injured. About to keel over. You can only carry one thing as you're running: a cell phone [a pause, and a rustle - he's waving his hand] or whatever you people use to communicate; or some food.

Which one do you take, and why?



Second question: who here can deal with high tech gadgets? I got a thing that needs checking before we head to the next mission.

Yes, but she thinks she did it for our benefit.

[There was so much more to it, but it wasn't something she felt ready to share at this early stage of their relationship.]

Tell him what?

[prizeneck]

That he died.

[goodandtrue]

He knew. He realized he was about to die before coming here.

[prizeneck]

Huh. Guess it was a death or life situation for him to volunteer here, then.

[Is his voice getting quiet, even soft? Nope. Not at all. It's only your imagination, Jeyne.

There's a pause, as he mulls over.]

What do you think of the practices we had so far? Am I boring you, yet?

[goodandtrue]

No, you're not boring me.

[There's a gentleness in her tone, genuine and assertive.]

The training you mean? They're...very difficult. Brutal. Training for Gallipoli started shortly after I arrived, it was the first thing I experienced. Not much of a welcome.
