"Haven't seen you around here before...'least, I don't think. What's your name? You got stuck out on this dumb Mud Man mission, too?"

-Oh, good...she's an imbecile-

-Nods- Private Fair. They transferred me here yesterday. Guess they were short-staffed.

-His Gnommish has a thick northern accent-

-Also he sounds like he's either very young or a girl-

"Man, transferred on the last full day we're gonna be here? I mean, Cudgeon's launching the bio-bomb soon as it's ready, looks like ya wasted a trip...your voice okay? You're talkin' weird and it sounds really high."

... -Lacks the language skills to come up with a properly biting retort- Don't judge me.

Do they have it up here yet? Seemed pretty fast.

-I should note, Convoy, that Cloud and the fairy are speaking another language and Michael isn't gonna get a freaking word of this-

"They got it here pretty fast, looks like Cudgeon's trying to impress the Council. Oh, sorry, Corporal Frond. Y'know, like the first king? Kind of a big deal around here. Just wish Captain Kelp were around to talk to...but someone got the idea to do a 'preliminary sweep' or something like that. Between you and me, I think that Captain Short lady just wanted him out of the camp to hit on him. But ya didn't hear it from me."

(Michael listens out for any indication of whatever the fuck they're talking about going wrong while looking around.)

(That officer can't be the only one out here. Doesn't protocol state something about having a partner with you at all times?)

(Damn, Michael, looks like your time here is starting to affect your knowledge of military regulations.)

-Blinks- Oh. I figured she was married or something —

-Mission. Focus on the mission-

...Anyway, that'd explain why I'm here. I guess they want me to check over the bomb, just in case.

"Oh yeah, that makes sense. Alright, it's right over there. I was guarding it before but I can switch out with you - I'll go to the...outside? The border of the camp? Starts with a 'P.'"

-There are a handful of guards around but none seem to have noticed Michael either-

...Yeah, space around it. I know the one.

-In a language that won't actually help you-

-Heads over to the bomb and takes a deep breath-

-Might have to take off the helmet to see-

-It's fine. Everything's fine-

(Well, okay, this looks like whoever Cloud's talking to isn't the only one here.)

-Removes his helmet and sets it down, then gets out his kit-

-Here goes-

-Wait something else important-

-to Frond- It was good meeting you.

"Nice to meet you, too. See ya around."

-Oh god this idiot fairy just winked at you, truly this is the most horrible thing to happen to you yet-

-...And now she's headed towards Michael's hiding spot-

(Micheal hears the footsteps and carefully tries to move away from his hiding spot. But just in course, he prepares to pull out his sidearm)

(Please don't see me, please don't see me, please don't see me...)

-Oh. Well-

-She seems nice-

-Seems at a loss for a few moments, until he notices where she's headed, and how the area smells awful human-y-

...Actually, do you wanna talk for a bit? It'll be nice to have company, and we can both keep watch fine here.

-Begins carefully unscrewing the back with the magnet-

"Nah, you're busy. But thanks!"

-However, she clearly isn't too much of an issue, since she just removed her helmet, then flipped the visor down to check her reflection in it-

(Once he notices that the footsteps have more or less stopped, Michael relaxes somewhat, but still decides to keep an eye out.)

(Didn't Artemis say he'd get in touch?)

(...Shit, if that fairy's still around, and my phone goes off, I'm in trouble.)

(Quickly he decides to get his phone out, and turn down the volume settings to their most quiet setting.)

-The fabled courtesy of the Fae-

-Pinches it between his fingers and melts it into the moving parts behind it-

-A bad wiring job, clearly-

-Nothing suspicious here-

...

-For good measure coats the inside with a fine layer of frost, to be left to melt in the sun-

-Then begins to seal it back up-

"Mr. Tapferin? Report."

(Speak of the devil.)

I have some good news. Cloud's made it to the bomb, but I'm not sure how long it is before someone discovers me. Also, I can't understand any single word of what they're saying, so I've become slightly nervous, but thank you for asking anyway.

"Relax, sir. The bomb's fine. I swapped out with someone, it's coo-"

"I assigned you, Frond. Back to your post and whoever you swapped with is getting fired!"

-Cloud, nobody is looking at you, they're all focused on Mr. Personality over there-

"If no one has discovered you by now, security must be light...seems we won't need Miss Majora's assistance after all."

...That's a small relief.

Sounds like someone's getting angry over here, by the way.
