Redhawk Caldera Blue Hours

Yeah, he got it, though he was a bit slow on the uptick. He didn't belly-laugh immediately as some others *wink wink nudge nudge* definitely did. But he did like referring to Germanicus as 'the fuzz' in his head. He pictured Germanicus as a giant ball of fuzz, with two lines for eyebrows, buttons for eyes, a small nub of a nose and a little frowny mouth. Yeah, Germanicus was definitely more likeable as the fuzz.

His eyebrows lifted and he bit his lip when Bridget began to air her impression of the Imperator as well. At this point, he didn't really fear that the word would get back to Mereo that a couple Brecheliants were tittering away about their leader behind his back. In fact, he was going to feed into it even more. "Get this- his title is 'Imperator.' The guy's definitely compensating," He agreed. 

But at the end of the day, the over-compensating windbag of a fuzz had his son, his ex-wife and his aunt in his pack. And regardless of his connection with Fennec, he wouldn't wish punishment or prejudice to be steered in their direction because of his actions. So he sighed, heavily. "Yeahhh." Yeah. They had his son, who wasn't exactly a soldier by nature, and yet...That was where he chose to live. The fact that Killdeer could have chosen to leave this military and come to live a peaceful life with him, but hadn't, stung him. He had to accept his son's decision but not a day went by that he didn't wish for it all to change. 

"Here?" He asked, for clarification. He already knew the minute amount it took to get banned from Mereo. But the conversation took a whiplash turn, back to the topic of his son. 

"See- like. Right? Right- like...You heard 'military' and you assumed the same thing I did." He said. Finally, someone who reacted the same way he had, when he'd learned that his son was part of a military pack. He felt relieved, and he'd never even thought that he'd needed someone else to have the same knee-jerk reaction. "Battle. Right? He said if I wanted to see Killdeer that I'd have to go with him and his troops on an emergency mission to a- I'm not sure if this was meant to be secret or not but whatever- to some place called Akashingo." He said. "He didn't say that it was just some 'diplomatic' thing until afterwards, but yeah, I thought like...What the hell else do you do with troops, but go to battle?" He said. "And yeah. Killdeer was on it. So they weren't going to battle, but he got right upset when I made that assumption, and because I did, he just made fun of me in front of one of his goons and in front of my son, and banned me." 

He hadn't had a chance to vent about it with anyone. Clearly. 

"I dunno if he'd make kids go to battle. But he's for sure training them to." He concluded, quietly.
