[h2][color=0054a6][center] Cody Ang [/center][/color][/h2] Seeing Adam verbally obliterate Osamu in front of both Haven and Red-star seemed oddly satisfying to Cody, though he didn't really know why. He was starting to like the new Field-captain, he acted much more professionally, and Cody respected that. While Adam briefed them on the battle plans, he mentions pilot Marianne as part of Cody's team. He recognizes the name as the name of the woman he met earlier, the one who stepped in and tried to defuse the situation between him and Trillanes. She gave a good impression at least, hopefully she was competent in the battlefield as well. His attention now turned back to the display to see Osamu seemingly screaming angrily, apparently unaware that the communications had been cut. He looked down at the ground as Alexander was electrocuted and then beaten again. If someone were to look at him, they could probably sense a feeling of uneasiness from him, and they wouldn't be wrong. After the link had been closed, and the briefing was over, Cody turned back to the exit and started making his way to the hangar, talking or even interacting with anyone along the way. He was taking the time to quickly read up on his new squad member, Marianne, viewing her pilot information and information about her NC. As he arrived in the hangar, he tapped into a private communications link between him and his squad, and sent a message, hoping that all of them would hear and respond quickly. [color=0054a6] "Greetings to all of you, this is your squad leader pilot Cody Ang speaking. We will be deploying soon, and I would like to remind you all that coordinaton and cooperation will be essential during the mission. Is everyone ready?". [/color] It's been a long time since he had someone else under his command, he hoped that he would be capable enough to pull through.
