[h2][center][color=fff200]Lieutenant Mika Delouse[/color][/center][/h2]

Mika was about to try and go find the medic himself when his angel of a savior arrived. She shushed him first, apparently in all his mumbling he'd been louder than he thought. He wanted to respond then, tell her he was sorry for being to loud and acting like a child and he needs to learn to shut the hell up. That he was the worst excuse of a CO she had probably ever had and that he didn't deserve to command mice, let alone men or her... that she desereved someone competent. Instead all he managed tto stammer out was, [color=fff200]"Righ-rrrr-rr-rr-right, s-ss-ssssssorry."[/color], before she began to rub his arms and guide him to sitting on a crate he had pulled over earlier only to abandon it in order to pace anxiously. She sat him down and pulled up her own 'chair' barrel before looking at him with... a look of worry on her face.

She spoke softly too him, [i][color=7bcdc8]"Focus on my voice. Let yourself be carried away from whatever it is to were thinking"[/color][/i]' it would have been hard for him to focus on much else, no one else [i]could[/i] talk to him like that... and christ did he need it. Sure the words were what you would tell an unruly child throwing a fit, but he ignored the words and focused on the soft, kind tone in her voice. He stopped rapidly breathing, slowing it down as he started to take deep breaths as was suggested, she calmed him down quickly enough, [i][color=7bcdc8]"tell me what's wrong"[/color][/i], he exhaled slowly before answering, swearing to keep his cool, [color=fff200]"I-its ffffucking O'C-c-c-cccconnor... h-h-he has no re-re-r-respect for authori-thority. He won't stop f-fucking antagonizing me... i-i-it-its ssss-ss-s-setting me on edge, getting me anxious a-and panicky like..."[/color], he shook his hands as if to illustrate his current condition, "[color=fff200]"th-this! Y-y-you g-g-go-gotta help me Collie you g-g-gotta... I c-ccc-can't focus an-and my mmm-m-meds aren't eno-nough..."[/color], he wasn't sure why he could say 'Collie' without stuttering... well maybe he did but that hardly mattered. 

He looked up at her, trying his best to not look like a stuttering wreck and a worthless officer. She was the only one who ever saw him like this and she had never criticized him for it or gotten mad or frustrated with him, making her the best emdic he had ever met in his book. Of course, that didn't mean he wanted to look like a wreck in front of her or was willing to look incompetent... if anything he wanted to look [i]more[/i] like an officer in her presence not less. He wanted her to trust him, to think he could be a real officer, to... he hardly knew her but he wanted her to like him, even in the few months he had known her she had made things a whole lot easier, always ready to help him and he couldn't ever thak her enough. He pushed it out of his mind, because he considered his thoughts innapropriate for a superior officer to have about a subordinate, but he couldn't deny his feelings towards the medic... not that he could tell her, the worthless man he was...
