[center][h2]Arcadia[/h2] [sub]Survey Initiative HQ[/sub][/center] [@blue demon][@Unfortunately] [hr] [color=9e005d]"Ahem,"[/color] Yvette cleared her throat, glaring at Ebenezer, who'd shown little respect for her orders. From the looks of it, he didn't even want to be there. No matter, if the CMAS heads wanted him around, she couldn't object. If Ebenezer was to be a bother, Sydney would speak up far before she would. Yvette wouldn't say anything, until they left the confines of Arcadia, anyways. A series of nods followed Karida's affirmation of understanding. The groupd seemed awfully obedient, for the most part. That was good, insubordinance would not be tolerated by the CMAS, and certainly not by Yvette.[color=9e005d] "Good. Joshua, is there anything else that I may have missed?"[/color] She said, glancing at him curtly. Joshua finally looked up from his clipboard, looking at the group of Registered Divers as if he'd just been dropped into a cage of rattlesnakes. [color=0076a3]"Uhh... N-No, No! No madam! You've covered everything. Very clear explanation,"[/color] Joshua sputtered, assuredly nodding as he looked back at Sydney for some kind of agreement. Sydney nodded silently, relieving Joshua to some degree. [color=0076a3]"I haven't looked over their files, we have what we need, right? Survey head, sub-head, two Machinists, two medical mages..."[/color] Joshua buzzed, his voice quickly becoming indiscernible as he flipped through his clipboard in a hurry. [color=0076a3]"Ah, yes. Ebenezer will be taking the place of Julius as this team's Glyph specialist, if I'm not to be mistaken? Good, Glad to... Uh, have you on board."[/color] Brian looked back at Ebenezer for a split second when Joshua said that. No way! He'd heard of that crazy old kook before. His daughter would go on and on about his theses regarding demons and ancient magics that haven't been relevant for ages. A regular warlock, from what he'd heard. A chill ran up his spine as he turned back to Yvette, acting as attentive as he could manage. The rest of the registered Divers had little to offer in terms of personality. Both machinists looked straight ahead, the medical mages stood close to one another but didn't exchange any looks at all, and everyone else stared with great expectation at Yvette and Karida, soaking up the squad leader's orders like processed sponges. [color=9e005d]"If that's all, Joshua, then I shall dismiss my colleagues,"[/color] Yvette said, raising one hand. [color=9e005d]"Report to the aforementioned gate within the hour preceding noon. Karida, you come with me. I've more details to discuss with you,"[/color] She ordered, heading towards the room's exit where Sulfrax stood. Brian nodded and looked around nervously as all his allies began to leave the room, marching in a line like robotic drones.
