Gone again, huh?

I'm afraid so. And I have a feeling we won't be as lucky to have him return like we did last time.

So I guess I need to ask you if you still want to serve with us.

Do you have to ask?

[A slight grin creeps forward as she tilts her head slightly.]

I'm just following proper protocol. Being a new boss means I have to set the right example for my subordinates.

New boss?

Last time Rufus bailed out, you took over. So technically you're not a newbie to being at the top of the ranks, now are you, Elena?

Ah....

[There's a short pause, filled with Elena blinking and looking slightly surprised, before she breaks out into a chuckle.]

You have a point there. My mistake. I guess I forgot that he was gone for a while before. That also means that you know that I won't go easy on you, either.

You forgot that your boss up and disappeared, huh.

[Chuckles quietly]

Boy. You must really like being in charge if that's the case.

W-What? No! That's not what I meant at all!

[Yup. She's embarrassed and turning a bright shade of pink.]

Being in charge isn't exactly my specialty, I'm much better at taking orders than giving. But he's back home where its safe and there are others who can better protect him, so I'll take on the leadership role in his stead like he asked.

[He likes making her flush too much.]

Then make sure you don't mess up, kiddo. [Then,] Otherwise I'll have to knock some sense into you.

[Yes. Yes he does. But at least its not because he's just outwardly embarrassing her, like another red-head she knows.]

Of course I won't. At least, I'll try not - K-Kiddo? Since when am I 'Kiddo'?

Since I said so. Get with the program.

[After a quick beat, just to keep her from arguing with him about "kiddo,"]

You said you wanted us to see you A.S.A.P.?

Reply

[video | locked] provenworth September 26 2011, 23:07:59 UTC
......Yes, sir.

[Really, she wasn't gong to push too hard about that. "Kiddo" was far better than "Rookie".]

Yes, I did. I wanted to talk with you all to see just where we are in regards to any missions or projects Rufus gave out before he left and see what our next steps are.

["Sir," huh. He only gets that sort of thing from his subordinates back home. He'd be lying if he says that he doesn't miss it sometimes. What? Axel does like his fair share of control.

But that would be mean to ask of Elena.

He sighs and crosses his arms.]

Then we can meet up and talk about it. [Not like there's much to talk about.]

I want to make sure that the team - you, me, Reno and 202 - we're all partners in this. While I may be at the head, I will rely on input from you all on how things should go. If you advise against something and have legitimate reasons for doing so, I will heed your advice.

Hopefully I'm more easily approachable than Rufus was. [Ah yes, there was a slight grin added to that.]

[Not much of a team, but, hey, he's dealt with lesser numbers before.]

How very professional of you. [Smirks a little wider] I'll be sure to send all my complaints to you when they come up, then.

Starting with me not having an easily accessible ice cream machine nearby.

[Can you tell that he's bored?]

[Smaller numbers means a stronger. At least, that's been Elena's experience.]

Oh please do. I'll be sure to have a little basket for complaints that I will be sure to empty on a daily basis. Or give to the kittens to play with.

[Well now, that's a little better. Though, come to think of it...]

I will have to agree with you. I want an ice cream shop nearby too.
