I’ll definitely have to write home to mum about this one.</em>She smiled to herself, more interested by what he had to say then Robert and Ranna’s sparring. Wheather this was something regular or the young officer being an idiot was another matter, but for now she was more interested in what the stray wolf had to say.<br/><br/>“That’s an interesting tale, Ivan.” She finally spoke up, looking at him. “I’ll admit now that you’re the first Clanner I’ve ever met, but... well, you guys are supposed to be tough and great fighters. And if that’s true, then I welcome the chance to fight alongside you. Hopefully we can get you a ‘Mech too; after all, I think you deserve a chance and it’d be a shame to waste your talents as PBI. Won’t be Clan tech, but I think you could score something good.”<br/><br/>Turning back to Ranna, she gave a small smile to the firey-haired woman. “So is it always this exciting around here or only when there are new recruits to impress?” She laughed as she spoke, glancing quickly at Robert before leaning close to whisper in Ranna’s ear. “Though if I was his CO, I’d probably have to find some suitable punishment for grab-assing.”<br/>
