"I'm standing therefore I walk... you wouldn't happen to have something similar to a sling or useable-as a sling would you?" Roger swings his limp broken arm painfully. It was almost like it was jello
: Not at the moment. Maybe back at the camp.

Coaxoch notices that you won't be able to put on the mask with just one hand and does it for you.
: Follow me. And do not step far from where I do.

She sets off through the jungle.

I wrap up the repairs for now and head over to the mess hall for some mush. I get some on a tray and sit over by everyone else.
The TV in the mess hall cuts from the current program to a commercial break, and the first one up is Imperial propaganda.
"Citizens of Malanta, what have YOU lost? Ever since the Aesthian terror campaign, men and women from the Imperial corps of engineers have been working around the clock to rebuild your lives and homes."

The shot cuts from the Imperial Seal to a soldier in full battle dress assisting in an overworked animal shelter, carrying a pair of puppies.
: I'm doing my part!

Then to another helping the local firemen put out a burning building.
: I'm doing my part!

And finally to a power-armored trooper at a construction site holding up an I-beam while his comrades weld it in place.
: We're doing our part!

"Join the Imperial Auxilia today and do your part to ensure a stable and safe environment for your homeland now and forever! Deference guarantees your defense!"

Some of your comrades seem mildly amused.
: Does anyone actually fall for that manipulative bullstuff?

"It had puppies in it, of course you're gonna have stuffheads that fall for it."

Roger took barely any steps before his ankles sunk deep into mud. The jungle wasn't dry like some of the ones he had visited. He pulled through the mud closely behind swatting off mosquitoes as he went.

"So... uh. Huit right? How's things going for you and the fellas on the other side."

"For Ark's sake, that last guy- the one with the power armor- looked like a literal trash can."

i wonder if the "terror campaign" was referring to the gas station lol

"You're right."

I laugh.

I look away during the propaganda. "...yeah."

"Well, I suppose I should introduce myself. I'm Gustav Thomsen, or Tempest in the skies. Most people call me Gus. Got transferred from the 138th not too long ago." I take a moment to sip the coffee. "I was told Mjolnir were a bunch of hotshot pilots, so I did my best "ace pilot" impression. You guys seem pretty normal to me, though."

"For Ark's sake, that last guy- the one with the power armor- looked like a literal trash can."

"I did not know that we were considered 'aces'."

:(
hhheheheheheeee
"I did not know that we were considered 'aces'."
"From what I remember, an 'ace' is anyone with five or more kills. Oh, I'm Akemi Yui by the way."

"I have what- four? Three kills now? I'm getting there."

"I have what- four? Three kills now? I'm getting there."
"Something like that. I have ten."

"Something like that. I have ten."
"You've been here longer than most of us."

avenge trash can, avenge berezin, avenge onyx

so I did my best "ace pilot" impression. You guys seem pretty normal to me, though."
"I thought you were just doing your best "talking star fish" impression. But now that you're not in the pilot seat you're alright. Kinda. Nice to meet yah forgetface."

Roger regrets being in the jungle and not being nearby to apologize for Tippy's mouth
