[Felix is sitting for this one, his lower body hidden, but the sharp-eyed might notice that his crutch is nowhere in sight. His uniform is also gone for good (for now). He's at the long metal table in his barracks, and the surface is absolutely covered with wires, cables, microchips... It looks like he's dismantled an entire fleet's worth of communicators.

He seems a little annoyed about it.]

[Private to Sarah Connor]

You said you're Gaius's Warden, didn't you? We should talk sometime.

Comments

[itstopped]

Sure. [How "men's men" of them.]

And that doesn't terrify you?

[resultofwar]

[itstopped]

He sighs and runs his hands through his hair, looking increasingly frazzled.]

Fantastic.

[resultofwar]

[itstopped]

If I have to. I've adjusted to a lot.
