skythion how come we always end up posting minutes within each other?

Task Force Hephaestus

Olivia's blank and rather emotionless face turned into a smile in this fashion (sort of) before returning to her emotionless face as she got up and moved herself from the group of soldiers she was sitting with. "It's like you can read my mind, Huscarl." She sat down next to Sergeant Linn as she got settled, rubbing her face and putting on her baseball cap backwards, her reasoning for the action being that she felt like it. The marksman looked up at the roof as the people around her discussed, the rust on the poles around them bothering her. The fact that they had advanced through technology so much in the past few years- yet haven't been able to do something about rust decay absolutely baffled Olivia. The small things always bothered her for some reason, but that was a good thing in her field of business. One of the advantages of doing what she did was that she had her trusty rifle to take care of said small things. Even if those small things weren't exactly so small.

She looked up at Patterson as he brought over a plate of food for her and Khuhkri. She took a look at it, and the judging from the look of salad she wasn't going to be touching it with a thirty foot fork. It just looked rather unappealing. Still though, at least the fish and chips were good- hopefully. She held the fork in her left hand, and started picking apart the fish with her fork, eating the small pieces she had created with her handiwork. She looked up at Huscarl as he made a suggestion, then back at Sergeant Linn as he spoke. She took some time to swallow, before she shrugged, "Sure, I guess. I've got nothing to do later, so I'm up to go to McKinnon."

The time had passed rather quickly for Ariana, spending the past hour or so catching up on the things she loved most. She had the TV on in the background as a deterrent to the absence of any noise. Ariana didn't like to feel lonely at any point whatsoever.

She lied on her bed for the time being, reading about her beloved American football team, and how one of the players carried the team to a victory. Ariana really did want the rain to go away, so she could go out on the town with Pavel. She would've done so herself but she didn't speak a lick of Czech. Plus, it would've been less lonely if she went with Pavel.

Not to mention she really did like Pavel. Ever since she met him, she had grown to start becoming very fond him. She hadn't felt that way since she met the father of her child, who ended up ditching her once he found out she was pregnant. Pavel was an especially pleasant person underneath that tough shell of his., it was like candy, really. Hard on the outside, soft on the inside. She was well aware that he was a father too, and basing on what she observed when talking to him, she liked to assume he was a good one. Ariana did have a funny feeling inside of her that roughly translated into a crush of some sort. Maybe Pavel felt the same way?

However it was, Ariana had a feeling something was going to go down tonight. She heard a knock on the door as she spaced out, her attention focusing on the door. She got up, carefully walking to the door and peering through the peephole. It was Pavel, much to her delight, and opened the door. She smiled as she saw him, her own blue eyes staring into his. "Yeah, I'm all set. Let me just take care of something." Ariana turned off the TV in her room and grabbed her wallet and phone, walking out of the room and closing the door behind her.

"Where to first? You're the Czech so you must know the good spots."

Task Force Hephaestus

Olivia's head was buried in her arms as she sat at her table in the mess hall. She was surrounded by some other group of soldiers on the base, but they knew she was trying to take a nap. They had been conversing and gossiping about whoever and whatever they did. Occasionally, the gossip did intrigue Olivia, but that wasn't very common. She gave up on trying to fall asleep, due to the massive amount of noise that was emitting within the mess hall. She looked up and groaned, one of the local soldiersgiving her a weird look. "Welcome back, sleepy head."

Olivia responded with a simple groan, rubbing her eyes as she did so. As she looked around, she could see the local Brit, Andrew Marshal all isolated and in his own zone. Which was a nice thing, since he was actually able to be in his own zone. She eyed him briefly, before she saw what she dubbed the "Big Bad Brit", Huscarl. She leaned low and eyed the two, wondering if something was going on. Huscarl was going to be the leader of their fireteam, and would be taken on some super duper top secret missions. The thought of that made her think she was some sort of special agent for the FBI, only she wasn't. She was just an ex-SEAL on a special task force.

The Chinese-born girl eyed the two, wondering what they were conversing about. If Huscarl was only conversing with Marshal, then it probably didn't concern her at all. Or it concerned her exponentially more than the gossip the people were yakking on about.

She spent the first 6 years of her life living on the Yokosuka Naval Base in Japan with her family consisting of her parents and 3 older sisters, before moving to California, United States. There she went to school and became further immersed in the English language, before she got to high school and honed her skills in Japanese. After she graduated, she opted to go straight to the US Navy instead of taking the traditional option of going to college. She gave the Navy quite a few years of service, before she opted to enlist with the Navy SEALs. After successfully enlisting and passing the selection process and such, she was assigned to SEAL Team 7 and carried out operations in places such as Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, and other places.

Please brief me on optics and harnesses and stuff. I'm tired of using ACOGs all the time.

Task Force Hephaestus

I like the Mk14 and SCAR, and I can't decide between the either of them soo.... but let me decide when I create my character.
