( Handsomeness wasn't part of the training. )

[ And he hadn't finished the guard program, but that's not the point. ]

( We'll both have better luck with Murphy if we give him some time. He's...irritated now. )

[ Or just being a stubborn ass. ]

[sistershoggoth]

( He's your boyfriend, I guess you're the expert. )

[deployed]

( That's not what we are. But I know him. He'll come around if we give him a little time to think about it. )

[ bellamy suspects he made murphy double down on his denial by getting involved, but he also knows murphy's not an idiot, so maybe a day or two and he'll begrudgingly agree to train. ]

[sistershoggoth]

( Nothing to think about, how many times you gotta get attacked by aliens before you start thinking about evening the odds? )

[ She's not actually arguing, she is, at this point, just complaining. It's one of her better skills. ]

[deployed]

( That's not really Murphy's style. )

[sistershoggoth]

( Logical preparation? No shit. )

[ What Bellamy may be noticing by now is that a certain chick here is also prone to getting stubborn and irritated from time to time....... ]

[deployed]

( No. Fighting. That's not usually what Murphy does. )

[ Aside from a few notable exceptions, but most of the time there had been more capable people to head up the front lines. ]

[sistershoggoth]

( That's fine, I got fighters. It's not about fighting. )

[ Poor Bellamy playing translator. ]

[deployed]

( Then it's about...? )

[sistershoggoth]

( Jesus. Not everything's about beating people up, sometimes you gotta run for your fucking life for hours at a time, or shit you have to run through a fuckin' urban environment with all the shit in the way. You get ready for that shit. Wanna do free run? Nyx and I can both show you. Wanna do stealthing? Can show you that shit too. More importantly, we're twice as effective next time some unexpected shit crops up if we actually know each other's skills. )

[deployed]

( I understand. )

[ This will still be a hard sell for Murphy. ]

( And he will too. Just not for a few days. )

[sistershoggoth]

( Fine! Shit. I got Noct to beat up first anyway. )

[deployed]

( Have fun. )

[sistershoggoth]

( Don't worry about that, I've been waiting for this for a week. )

[deployed]

( Well, don't tire yourself out. I'll find you tomorrow and we'll see where Murphy stands. )
