— "I mean, this was practically your home at one point. Who's the apprentice?"

He had a hunch, but it didn't hurt to confirm it.

"I'll be alive and standing no matter what, at this point. That is both a threat and a promise, by the way."

— Especially with leading Ichor. Maybe we can face off in a war game sometime, see what your people are made of."

Another brief pause followed, Salvador glancing around as he ran a mental list of potential people he could see taking the mantle.

The Gamma perked up at the mention of her Fireteam, lowering his arm back down to his side as he shuffled towards a wall so he can lean comfortably against it.

"Whistler, huh? What's the story behind that name? I've been making attempts to become better acquainted with the other teams around. —

He's fidgeting.

The blade turns around over and over again, his reflexes sharp enough to miss the edge of it, just barely.

The Gamma's gaze isn't fixated on anything or anyone in particular— A blank, unwavering stare at something in the distance— he seems to be preoccupied in his own head.

If it hurts then you know you're alive.

There's no fun in it if there's no risk to begin with, but that's just me.

At least there's no scarring.

I mean it felt like it did.

Every day it feels like these sims get closer to reality and it stings like a bitch.

I'm not gonna lie, it was kinda funny to watch.

Did it burn?

"It's Covies. Grab your gear and let's get a move on. We need to get the hell out of this base."

There was an urgency to his voice that made it sound sharper than usual, a hint of a snarl, through it wasn't directed at him.

"One of the patrolling squads got ambushed, —

— his body language was casual, relaxed.

"I would have tried to stop by sooner, or at least let you know I'm still around and kicking, but uh, you know, shit happens."

He raised his left arm, now a fully furnished prosthetic, and waggled his mechanical fingers for Caliber to see.

It was good to see her face again. A small grin pulled across the younger Spartan's face seeing the other light up.

"I'm here and I'm alive, nothing's killed me yet. Figured I'd stop by and see if you were still holed up in here."

Despite the semi flatness of his tone, —

You do?! Good.

Visit! Visit! She will like.

𝐆𝐀𝐌𝐌𝐀 𝟐𝟔𝟐 . @visceralmaniac.bsky.social · Aug 30

"Gotcha.I know her too, I ought to pay her a visit sometime."

Truth be told, it's been months. Far too long.

"Don't think she'll be too thrilled about the arm, but it'll be good to see her again."

𝐆𝐀𝐌𝐌𝐀 𝟐𝟔𝟐 . @visceralmaniac.bsky.social · Aug 30

— All he needs to do now is knock and wait for a response.

— Though he's healed since the event and adjusted to his prosthetic, his responsibilities made his mind slip, and in turn, he's forgotten to reach out.

The Gamma approached the doors to Caliber's workshop, and if his memory serves correctly, she'd be there.

@spartancaliber.bsky.social

This visit is one that's been long overdue.

Leading a team takes up a bulk of his time, and his previous deployments with Ichor have gone well, except for the last one— The one that resulted in Salvador being sidelined for a bit.

Zuzuk! I help Caliber.

I don't think I caught a name.

It'll be easier to find you that way.

Could meet up in the mess hall for it.

When you do, call me down.

I eat too. We eat.

𝐆𝐀𝐌𝐌𝐀 𝟐𝟔𝟐 . @visceralmaniac.bsky.social · Aug 30

Won't know unless I give it a try.

I've eaten a number of things either seen as unappetizing or commonly thought of as inedible.
