Kill Four: "Are you sure she's a chick? And not a guy? Or like, part guy part shark?"

[A. TEENAGE GIRLS

Monday: GYM CLASS. There is a mean lady standing in front of you. She's wearing army dog tags and looks like she could punch out someone.]

Alright. I'm going to make one thing VERY clear. Show up to class, and you ARE going to train. If you want to survive here longer then a day during some of the crap they put us through, then you'

[Ken has only seen bits and pieces of Tex's armer, so it's going to take a minute of him staring to figure out who the hell it is]

[likeahex]

[And finishes a move before looking over. Takes her helmet off.]

What?

[weiss_tank]

TEX! [Yes he was about to guess right!] I thought that was you! Sorry about the starin', I was a little thrown off by the armor.

[likeahex]

[Shrugs.]

Just practising.

[weiss_tank]

Yeah, the park's good for that. Have you had all of your armor long? I know you had the helmet for a while.

[likeahex]

I got all of it at once. Just not much use for it here.

[weiss_tank]

Oh, totally didn't know that. Doesn't it got hot running around in that?

[likeahex]

Not really. They're designed so we can fight off earth and in environments that other people can't fight in.

[weiss_tank]

So there's like an air conditioning system in there or somethin'?

[likeahex]

Something like that. The air is breathable here at least. So it doesn't need to do much.

[weiss_tank]

That's true. You don't have to worry about the batteries running out so quickly then if it doesn't have to do that.

[likeahex]

Yeah. It's still strange being out of it..

I've been in that robot body and before that, armour for such a long time, I forgot what fresh air felt like.

[weiss_tank]

Does it feel nice? [He thinks he knows Tex well enough to not assume that she'd automatically prefer doing things the natural way.]

[likeahex]

Not bad.

[weiss_tank]

I don't know what I'd do all cooped up in a metal casing all day. I think it would drive me nuts.

[likeahex]

You get used to it. Besides, you'd die pretty quickly in the army if you weren't wearing it.

[Not..that it helped her...those....times.]
