I got into it to help people... and because my dad was also one of their top officers.

[ even though they didn't always see eye-to-eye, his father had always supported him. it just took him years to really recognize that for himself. the problems with being a twenty-something hold true across almost every species. ]

But it turned out, I wasn't exactly all that big on protocol or paperwork. I tried, but it just wasn't for me.

[motivation]

Paperwork's the worst.

[ dutch says it with some authority, like she knows what she's talking about. which, incidentally, she does: rac agents have to file reports, too, and she's always hated that shit. ]

[centurian]

Now you sound like you've got your priorities straight.

[ despite what his dad says, paperwork can really just... to use a human term, "go to hell". ]

[motivation]

That's 'cause I do.

[ one thing dutch definitely does not lack is confidence, though the words aren't without humour, a quick grin lighting up her face. ]

[centurian]

Well, when it comes to dancing, I'd definitely agree. Haven't gotten a chance to see you in action just yet.

[ he, of course, means seeing how well she fights. ]

[motivation]

We could fix that.

[ fancy a spar? ]

[centurian]

[ he laughs. ]

I'd be happy to.

[ after all, he was the top hand-to-hand fighter in his training unit. ]

[motivation]

I'll hold you to that.

[ he looks like he could be a challenge and dutch likes those. ]
