Rei grimaced as she ran with the heavy weight strapped to her back, making sure to keep up with the rest. Punishment for losing a game of Capture the Flag. While she understood that competition would allow the contestants to push their own limits, and grow in strength at a far more rapid pace, wasn't the extra weight detrimental? If you allow only a single group to carry it, then the rest of the groups do not receive as much of a harsh training, and therefore fall behind.

However, unlike the usual, she wasn't voicing her opinion out. The reason behind such a fact was that at the front of their running group was Sam, who was giving something akin to an AAR. While still thinking of her own topics, she listened in to her. As usual, she was quite right with her words, as she pointed out the problems that had occurred during the game. In Rei's mind, she was quite the leader, keeping everyone's spirits up, while still being capable of scolding them. If only she would be more capable in the tactics department.

Before being able to open her mouth to speak her mind, it seemed that Alex had beat her to it, voicing arguments that ran counter against Sam's words. Of course, his thoughts and pattern deviated as usual, into something nearly incomprehensible.

"Listening and understanding everyone's input simultaneously is not a problem. The problem is that we lack the thought of voicing input." With a sigh, Rei tossed a related argument into the mix, wholeheartedly agreeing with the lack of communication.

She remembered the game of Capture the Flag that they did. Everyone seemed to do their own thing. It was like several tribes quibbling over politics, while a nation stormed through for land.
