[Day 2 EE Base Camp] On the Fence About Things (Expecting)

[Yori Hakamada]

Alek simply grins a little as he leans up against the box "and how does that measure up? B+ sounds pretty good to me but I was never one much for school."

"It's a good score, better than average but still with some room for improvement. I grade on a curve of course, as is the standard for relationship questionnaires."

[Aleksandr Korolov]

An eyebrow rose "standard? Have you done a lot of research into relationship questionnaires? Didn't think it was common enough to have a standard really." He admitted with a small chuckle

"Well regardless I'm glad I scored well and room for improvement just means a goal to work towards."

"Well regardless I'm glad I scored well and room for improvement just means a goal to work towards."

"...It is a small community. Questionnaires are more common for formal arranged marriages. I left off the questions about wealth, prenups and fertility as largely irrelevant to my interests."

Relaxing her facial muscles slightly
"Yes, you did well. And it's nice you are looking to improve, nobody is perfect after all. Not to imply any current partners are not satisfied with you."

[Aleksandr Korolov]

"Well no current partners to disappoint but as I've said never really recieved a bad review. Though I dare say I typically score higher on practical exams than written ones." He said throwing out a grin "in case you're ever interested in scoring that."

Yori looks blankly at him.
"That is not unusual, many individuals....oh, you are propositioning me."
She turns her head this way and that, looking him over.

"Given your appearance and test scores it is tempting. But I might want to consider the data further."
Bowing her head
"Would you be able to place me on your wait list?"

[Aleksandr Korolov]

Alek laughed "Of course Yori, happy to save you a place there. Just let me know if you change your mind. Didn't necesarrily mean right here right now anyway just Flirting a little I guess." He said settling back against the box tower.

"So to change the topic a bit, you know how I got here, recruited from the arena saw a better opportunity and all that. How is it you found your way to the Angels?"

"So to change the topic a bit, you know how I got here, recruited from the arena saw a better opportunity and all that. How is it you found your way to the Angels?"

"Of course, it would be unsanitary in this current location, I am glad you understand."
A high B+ indeed.

"The angels were simple enough to locate, I found the planet they were completing a contact on and sent a message via hyperpulse generator. The message was received and I applied remotely."
Yori goes back so silent staring for a long while.
"Although, if your question is more general then I can elaborate. My lance and I deserted the DCMS and needed to find employment in an adjacent reason of space. The Angels were a natural choice given their statistics."

[Aleksandr Korolov]

"Aye a good company indeed, you chose well!" Then he raised an eyebrow as he crossed his arms over his chest "but defecting from the Combine, that's a thing they don't take too kindly to from what I understand. Must have been some extreme stuff happening for that to be your decision."

"There was an 84% chance of us being court-martialed and executed. Given the odds defection, while dangerous, was the only sensible decision."
Yori seems to just stare off into space, either that or an apple sticker on the wall has caught her undivided attention.
"Extreme is an accurate descriptor."

[Aleksandr Korolov]

Alek shook his head a bit "maybe a story for another time if it's one worth telling and you're interested in sharing."

He checked the time and pushed off the crates "Well seems I got off track for longer than I meant to. Should be getting ready for bed soon enough." He said with an easy smile as he put hands in his pockets

"I'll see you around Yori!" He said turning toward the door. He stopped and talked over his shoulder not quite looking at her but obviously talking to her "you're actually lovely company Yori, I do look forward to the next time." He said with a grin over his shoulder before the door opened and he went back once more into the cold.

Yori waves mechanically
"You are also pleasant company sergeant, congratulations on your high marks."
She nods politely as he leaves before returning to her flag and continuing her circumnavigation.
