"Nobody is taking drugs from the Idiot-Savant here. He's nowhere near sane enough for the side effects to not be debilitating and on par with an eldritch fanfic with extra teeth."

"Also what? We already know how to identify the creatures. It's really not hard. You lack the mental stability and capacity for teamwork required for fieldwork. You cannot make an antidote for anything onsite. Aka the only place it would matter. You need a rather massive quantity of expensive and fragile equipment for that and a lot of time. There is a reason we amputated Aria's leg last week instead of waiting on an antidote. If you are going to need an antidote either it'll be minor enough to shrug off such as with Spiker spines or it'll be so deadly waiting five minutes for a prefabricated antidote to get brought to you is too much of a wait and amputation is mandatory. Antidote aren't magic. They don't instantly heal you like in the movies. The poison does its damage and continues doing said damage even after it's ingested. Only thing the antidote does is either enable the immune system to fight it like it would a virus or react with the venom to negate it in the very rare cases that's possible."

"Seriously though. I can't think of a good reason for you to be in the field. You belong in the lab. Away from anything that's a life and death matter. I'm honestly wondering if the higher ups were drunk when they thought it was a good idea to stick you with us. Rule three, you don't mix the insane with the semi sane. It's already hard enough to stop Vigil from making himself into a martyr every other mission. We don't need someone who seems to not understand the field he was hired for and is absolutely unhinged."

"Well, we can't go against the higher ups, so it seems like Frazz is going to be Foxhound's resident crazy bastard. Can't say I'm too happy with still being stuck near him, but he can be surprisingly competent at times."

"As for me..." Jon points towards the combat medic's brassard on his left arm mid-sentence. "...I'm the guy in charge of keeping you alive after getting blown up by a grenade or having your leg ripped off. Name's Jonathan."

"Technically we can go against the higher ups. It's called directly complaining and filing reports until a different one notices. I'll be giving Frazz one chance to show he's not a danger to the team or criminally incompetent before doing that. However if he directly or indirectly causes any member of the team to be harmed or killed.. His life expectany will drop."

Lets use the ancient naval art of training war parrots. No one will realize they have been boarded by space war parrots until it is to late!

Jenny shrugged nonchalantly, having been eating a fruit. "Well, our Squad's already got a few people that's a bit boinkers in the head and we're still doing just fine so far. I mean, there's the suicidal matyr-obsessed Swordsman who might actually have good intention but is actually clueless, an actual Cowboy and a guy who speaks, acts and thinks like he's a Roman. Like, the Actual ones from Before Christ or something."


Maximus guffawed at that. "Well I'm a True Roman that I am! Guilty as charged and damned proud of it!" He's also going to eat half of an apple in one bite, the crunchiness was almost enough to make you want to try one.


Arthur's mysterous benefactor offers him an apple and will even help feed him if he can't eat it himself.

"The major differences are Competence and willingness to work with the team. Quirks are fine so long as they don't cause a danger."

Tal grabs an apple and begins nomming. "Anyways! Unpleasantness aside, welcome to the team everyone!"

"Jon and Frazz, you two will most likely be working closely with the Medical Auxiliary team. I recommend meeting them and getting to know them. Zachary, you'll probably be working closely with the techie Auxiliary Team like I do, I recommend meeting with them and getting to know them."

"Older members of the team probably recall I mentioned Power Armor as a goal for the squad. I am of the belief that we technically have everything we need. Especially with the miniaturized fusion reactors from last mission. I'm considering giving the R&D team a list of gateway techs for them to work on and paying a small bounty should they deliver any of them by the time next mission rolls around. I'll be writing up a list later and passing it around for input."

"On another note. We recovered quite a few books last mission. They are currently stored in Memetic Containment due to potential Memetic Hazards. I'll begin the process of picking through them later, should anyone feel like joining me feel free. Probably going to borrow a few interns to ensure none of them are fatal before reading."

Zachary takes an apple, "The Romans were pretty kick-ass in their day. My favourite part of most movies that have them is when they just curbstomp their opponent with Pilum and Testudo."

The slide door closes and clicks as it locks, the lights in the room dimmed and the far wall lit up, revealing a large screen.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

"Hello, Foxhound. I hope you are finding yourselves comfortable, today's talk will be... at length." Came the gruff deep voice that the older Foxhound members are begining to become familiar with from the man behind the screen.
