Snippet #1681703

Merceigh glanced up, startled almost as if she had forgotten Mark was still lingering around and she blinked over at him, green eyes still trying to make sense of everything and she sighed a little, running a hand through her hair. It wasn't his fault. Really, she wished he wouldn't blame himself. This was for their protection and her mens at home. The last thing she wanted was to be chased down twenty-four seven like some fox. Perhaps dog suited her better now.

She looked to mark and shrugged a little, "It's for the best." She assured and smiled to him weakly, "I would rather that than my men hunted down with me." She murmured and rubbed her eyes. She would miss Justin, he was the only family she had but she knew she had elft him in the best capable hands and the men would never do anything to put him in danger. She shook her head slightly, "I don't think Uniforms will suit now, don't you think?" She grinned and shrugged it off. Captain Gabriel was the woman with honours, medals and respect. Merceigh, well, she was just Merceigh, nothing else really. She had made her life and living off of the military and now, she wasn't quite sure what to do.

She had never been into space, Hell, she had barely managed to find the time to watch the stars back at the base. Once or twice there had been gorgeous nights were she could see millions. "Don't worry about it." She looked to Mark with a grin and she rubbed the back of her neck. She didn't want this to be awkward for either of them. She noticed the walls were bare. She guessed Mark didn't have a family or relationship because he lived such a dangerous life. She knew the feeling. She looked over to him and frowned a little, she guessed everyone deserved a chance and being happy and maybe he was, but being on the run, living other people's lives couldn't have been all that enjoyable at times. It seemed he was used to a solitary life, without company and she really hoped she wasn't imposing. She was good and keeping hidden, it might last for some time, if not all the time then at least she could be killed away from the Base. She was little good dead though. She frowned slightly and sat back, rubbing her head and trying to make sense of everything.
