Having listened to the briefing, Veep felt a surge of anticipation. Time to make the Totality pay for everything they've taken from everyone. From him. He looked round at the others in the bay. He had done all his SPEAR training with this lot, but didn't really know much about them personally. He had seen their skills and prowess and felt that he could rely on them in a pinch. In fact, the thing he was worried about the most, was himself.

All the training, the drills, the mock battles, it would all be for nought if he let his anger and pain overwhelm him at the wrong moment. He HAD to keep a lid on it. He didn't want to let the side down. Everything was ok, everything was fine. He'd do his job and do it well. Veep arranged his face into a smile of determination and stood up.

With a flick of his tail, he turned and headed towards where his MAS was strapped down. He didn't know if anyone could see through his smile, but if anyone asked, he'd just play it down. It's perfectly normal to be a bit tense before a live combat scenario after all. That's all this was. He braced against the MAS and took a few deep breaths, while running through the suit operations in his head.
