[center][h2][color=ec008c]Charlotte Boyd[/color][@JackalopeLove] and [color=8dc73f]Arthur "Bear" Jones[/color][@CGinger][/h2][/center] As the UNSC Infinity shook from the slip-space all Charlotte could do was groan as she once again lost her space in the reports she was reading. Of course, they narrowly escaped Cortana which technically meant that they saved her life, but Charlotte risks her life almost every day for these guys, she deserves some time to read some files without being interrupted. So she flipped her hair back and began to read the reports again when she was quickly interrupted by Lasky’s orders: [color=f26522]"Fire-team Quantum, please make your way to the War room for Briefing. That's Fire-team Quantum to the War Room for Briefing"[/color] Charlotte begrudgingly rose from her seat and picked up her helmet from the small table next to her door as she made her way out. As she was making her way down to the War Room as requested, she was passing the armory when she noticed her second in command still sitting down. [color=ec008c] “Hey Jones, come on we have to get down to the War Room.”[/color] She said impatiently waiting by the door. Arthur was sitting on a bench in the armoury, engraving something into the bullets for his DMR. He sighed as he looked up, seeing Charlotte in the hallway. [color=8dc73f]"Yeah, yeah. I heard..."[/color] He grumbled. He put three bullets down on the bench and by luck they rolled perfectly to show what he was spelling. The first bullet said 'Fuck', the second 'You', and the third 'Covey'. The Bear stood up, his height not lacking compared to Charlotte. [color=8dc73f]"Sidenote: After all these missions, you still call me Jones? C'mon Charlotte..."[/color] Bear joked. He picked up his helmet on the way out of the armoury. Charlotte groaned, [color=ec008c]“You guys and your nicknames, it is childish. We are fighting a war I prefer to stick with your given names. And please refer to me as Boyd in front of the others, it's stressful enough being the only female on our team, but losing any respect I have earned is not something I am striving to do.”[/color] Bear chuckled on their way to the mission room. [color=8dc73f]"Haha, okay Boyd..."[/color] He laughed heartily. Arthur began to affix his helmet, tucking his beard underneath it. [color=8dc73f]"What do you think we got this time? It's barely been three minutes since we exited slipspace and already command has got a mission for Quantum? Seems strange, even for Infinity..."[/color] He commented as the helmet clicked and hissed in place, his voice becoming more echoey as he used the Soldier helmet comms system. Charlotte looked up at her second in command that towered above her, he was smart and followed her orders out of respect for who they serve. [color=ec008c]“Well, Jones...”[/color] She put an emphasis on Jones to mock him slightly and then continued[color=ec008c] “My guess is that we didn’t completely escape Cortana, but to be fair I really do not have any idea that is why we are going to the briefing.”[/color] As they entered the War Room she was pleased to see Milo and Patrick already there [color=ec008c]“Byrne, Cash, nice to see you guys got here so quickly.”[/color] She smiled while taking a seat at the large table that Patrick was already sitting at. Now they just needed to wait for the others to arrive. Bear walked in and separated the other way, sitting opposite from Quantum's leader, awaiting the mission brief.
