"I believe I have heard a bit about him, thank you foreigner. Hopefully he won't be mad at me for Tulius. Can I ask what sort of people you're looking to recruit? Your squad is a lot more versatile than mine, so it's hard for me to tell."

"Somebody who's not an idiot. Well, a specialist in exotics, infiltration and intelligence-gathering won't hurt."

"Nequeba is the only exotic specialist that I've seen so far. They certainly are a rarity. I can't say that I've seen any infiltrators... Most of the people I've run into are your typical soldier."

(( This is great. ))

Find foreigner and Hema on the way to the briefing room.
"Hey Hema."
(to foreigner) "You must be foreigner, I'm Nequeba. Hema suggested that I should possibly join your squad rather than his since I'm not the toughest one around. What do you think?"

"Aye, that I am. My name is Scott, by the way, but people call me Foreigner for some reason. It's nice to meet you, Nequeba. Yes, I'm looking for somebody who is willing to work with Exotic and PSI-based things, as the rest of my squad - myself included - are pretty terrible at this stuff. I used to have a really good officer for that, but the higher-ups took her away...so, if you decide to join, you'll have a pretty demanding job before you...but if I can promise anything it is that I shall do everything humanely possible to keep you alive and well. Still interested in joining?"

((I imagine Hema running down the hallways at full speed. Trigger dragging behind him, fishtailing and smashing into walls. Should they go through a door, I imagine that Trigger would be launched into the air slightly by the threshold , and his head would come down with a CRACK!
Maybe not as great as you imagined, Trigger. ))

(( Nah man its all cool. I still want this. ))

"Hi Hema. What's the condition of recruiting for your squad?"
((Seems my previous attempt was either ignored or incorrect.
Also I am assuming that characters have their names on their shirts or something. ))

((Yes, it should be embossed onto each person's shirt [I tend to think it would be on the left hand side where a pocket would go.] Names are also on the back of each shirt/flight suit [think American football uniforms]))

To foreigner, "I didn't know you found it strange that we all called you Foreigner. If you like, I can start calling you Scott if you are more comfortable with that."

"They started calling me 'Foreigner' back on Kepler-438b, BFett. It was...an inside joke, you see. Me being from Earth - the original home of mankind, yet not being granted a citizenship of Kepler-438b itself. Everybody found it rather amusing, so it stuck. I don't mind when people call me that."

Hear the briefing call
Sigh and follow Ysavva to the briefing room
Get something to drink and sit with the rest of Squad 1
Listen to the briefing
If mission briefing sounds like a poor attempt in assisting the inmates in committing suicide;
-Give self a pep talk then pray to any and all gods for extra good measure
If mission briefing doesn't seem too terrible
-Hide nervousness by sipping casually on drink and making a lighthearted comment about having to get acquainted with her weapons
-Internally pray to any and all gods for extra good measure

(Hope the formatting was right. Lemme know if I dun goofed. )

(( No, you did fine. You don't actually have to use it on Tartarus, but it's a nice way to practice.
Also, on mission, it's easier to split every action onto it's line because
do stuff and do other stuff
is less easy to parse than
do stuff
and do other stuff
Not needed in this post however ))
