[And why no he didn't look at her when he sent that, and instead he makes a show of stretching out on his bunk in just his undershirt and boxers, on his right arm that tattoo of his from the ODST's if she's on that side.]
[They're all about to die. She needs a laugh. Whether out of nervousness, finally cracking a bit, or amusement, she lets out a little choked chuckle that sounds more like a girlish giggle, in the end.]

When did you get that?
no subject
Date: 2013-03-14 09:10 pm (UTC)On the Midsummer Night. [Not that long ago.]
no subject
Date: 2013-03-14 09:19 pm (UTC)I never thought you the sort.
no subject
Date: 2013-03-14 09:21 pm (UTC)I'm not. It wasn't planned. [He's going to sit here and try to get away with not explaining that story to her.]
no subject
Date: 2013-03-14 09:30 pm (UTC)How do you not plan a tattoo? It involves a good deal of sitting still.
no subject
Date: 2013-03-14 09:31 pm (UTC)Not when you're duct taped to a table.
no subject
Date: 2013-03-14 09:36 pm (UTC)Duct taped by who?
no subject
Date: 2013-03-14 09:38 pm (UTC)A pack of ODSTs. [And that makes them sound like wild animals, which really isn't all that far from the truth.]
no subject
Date: 2013-03-14 09:40 pm (UTC)She has to turn away and clear her throat.]
A pack of ODSTs taped you to a table and made you get a tattoo?
no subject
Date: 2013-03-14 09:41 pm (UTC)[Please note this isn't him denying it at all.]

no subject
Date: 2013-03-14 09:57 pm (UTC)It was to thank me.
no subject
Date: 2013-03-14 09:58 pm (UTC)For?
no subject
Date: 2013-03-14 10:01 pm (UTC)[He's a little more somber at that admission, the grin not there.]
no subject
Date: 2013-03-14 10:03 pm (UTC)You saved ODSTs?
no subject
Date: 2013-03-14 10:07 pm (UTC)And myself. [SHRUGGING.] We were inspecting a freighter and...[Things went bad.]
no subject
Date: 2013-03-14 10:09 pm (UTC)And it didn't go as planned.
no subject
Date: 2013-03-14 10:11 pm (UTC)No, it didn't. Not at all. [He scratches at his face at that.] Insurgents don't take kindly to new protocols.
no subject
Date: 2013-03-14 10:12 pm (UTC)No, I shouldn't think they would.
no subject
Date: 2013-03-14 10:14 pm (UTC)Not the way I wanted to test out ODST armor.
no subject
Date: 2013-03-14 10:16 pm (UTC)I wouldn't want you to try it at all. You're not an ODST.
no subject
Date: 2013-03-14 10:21 pm (UTC)No, I'm not. But it doesn't change what I had to do.
no subject
Date: 2013-03-14 10:22 pm (UTC)No. [One more trace of the lines, then she shifts to move away from the bunk.]
