"Reload!" The line of soldiers brought their weapon down, and quickly stuffed another bullet down the neck of the rifle.

Pierre’s hands moved automatically, needing no thought to complete the familiar action.

Chadine left promptly. John took a few moments to blow gingerly to cool down the freshly brewed tea.

Jane wiped the bubbles off her face and took her tea as well. "She's a darling, isn't she?"

He had them aim, but instead of calling for them to fire, he caught them by surprise and told them to put their guns down.

Pierre forced his expression to remain neutral, betraying none of his surprise as he lowered the firearm.

"Absolutely," John spoke. "I wish I could repay her, with more than just a fancy home to live in." He sighed.

Jane sat slightly more upright. "That's it. We should get her a present!"

Edonine had been caught by surprise, and fired. Luckily she wasn't the only one, but the sergeant had become rather ruthless towards Edonine lately. "You!" He bellowed, making hard steps towards her. "Goddamnit, what's your name? Frank?"

"Francis." She muttered through gritted teeth. The sergeant leaned in close.

"Annoying when people don't listen to what they're told, yeah?" He growled. Edonine returned with a blank, hard stare.

"Huh?– well, obviously, but of what?" John contested.

Pierre visibly tensed, his lips pulling back into a barely concealed snarl.

Edonine threw her gun off to the side, kneeling down on the grass to do as she was told. Pierre knew she could only do close to twenty in a row. She wouldn't last.

@KalamariCakes

"Mn-hh," she grunted as she tried to push forward, Pierre could see her freckled arms trembling. She was red in the face, both with exertion and embarrassment.

@blue_topaz

All he wanted to do was crouch next to her, pull her into his arms. But he couldn’t. He remained in line, breath trembling in the humid air.

@KalamariCakes

"Come on!" The sergeant bellowed. "You're nothing close to a man!" He gave her a shoving kick, made her hiss with pain. The other soldiers just watched.. they couldn't do anything without facing the same wrath.

"I'm not sure…" she remarked, pursing her lips in thought.

Pierre very nearly lost it. The only thing keeping him together was the knowledge that the consequences for both of them would be far worse if he moved a single muscle.
