Rook narrowed his eyes right back at Hain. To be fair, the rabbit creature had a point, but Rook still didn't like getting snubbed like that. He was about to speak up when Adele beat him to the punch as she playfully tried to convince Hain to share whatever juicy details he'd picked up. Rook's eyes briefly turned to Adele as she spoke before focusing back on Hain. [i]Wait, what?[/i] Rook did a double take, staring at the cannon Adele was leaning on. He'd noticed it, of course, when he first walked up, but now that he looked at it a litle closer he realised he had never seen anything quite like it before. His curiosity peaked and he had to resist the urge to ask Adele how it worked. She seemed like the type to go on a tangent when asked a question like that, and while Rook wasn't opposed to the idea, this probably wasn't the moment for it. He resigned himself to asking the question later. 

"Yeah, what she said," Rook said, nodding his head at Adele. "We're supposed to be a team, right? That means sharing everything you overhear and collectively undermining the authority of your commanding officer," he added with a smirk. He wasn't particularly fond of that thing called chain-of-command, especially since he'd gotten quite used to being the leader of his own outfit before submitting his crew to become a chapter of the White Guard. It was financially definitely the best choice and provided an immense amount of job security, but Rook wasn't going to become a subordinate again without at least a little mutinious behavior.
