>SELECTED: Before you left there was talk about a Company sister platoon of Kriegers coming in. Apparently, they crash landed on a supply run months ago and have only just now been picked up by one of your long-range patrols. Goods news, all told. The ratio of Krieger to Rebel is already sobering. Corporal Crane will be there to greet them. [Camp Outskirts]
>SELECTED: Sapper ‘Convict’ & Trooper ‘Husk’ Charov
“Snake Eyes-Sama.” Corporal ‘Crane’ Shizuka turns just as you arrive at the edge of the camp’s outskirts.
A lifetime of sneaking up on all manner of creatures undetected and you can still only count the times you got the drop on your trusted second. Although he’s never actually admitted to being a former member of the Yakuza gangs that had set up shop in the human slums on Perspira, even your less than astounding powers of deduction have come to that conclusion. That or the man just really likes tattoos and happens to know a whole lot about how criminal enterprises are run from reading raunchy true-crime novellas.
“Crane my guy.” You beam at him, countering his lack of emotion with your own exuberance. “Aren’t you going ask me how my day has been?”
“ 私はもう「一人で出かけるなよ、バカ」なんて言うつもりはない。”
“What was that?”
“Your hunt was successful, I take it?”
Crane has always been cool head of your duo, and it’s become a game to you in seeing if you can even get the slightest rise out of him or translate his dispassionate responses into some kind of emotion. The two of you went through a bit of a rough patch after your cold-blooded actions in murdering a rebel ally to cover the Company’s tracks, and that this was done on the LT’s orders didn’t do much to justify it in the eyes of the reformed gang member. But after you saved his life during a Savis air raid the man has only redoubled his devotion to you, and you don’t even need to flash the extensive mottled burn scars all across your back to remind him.
He still preaches caution to some of your more reckless inclinations, and chides you incessantly when you’ve missed something in your briefings because you were half-asleep or just not paying attention. Not to mention his ire when you leave him to do the paperwork that your role requires of you. But you need all that, you wouldn’t have wanted your old comrade by your side unless he was willing to pull you up on things like this. Void knows what you’d get up to if he there steer you away from the odd cliff’s edge. Or occasionally lend you money.
