"Yes, ma'am..." Lynne said shyly, as she sat down.<br/><br/>"Now, Lynne, when you and Lt. Patterson are in Darwin, I want you to be careful, okay?"  Minna reached out and touched Lynne on the arm.<br/><br/>"Careful, Ma'am?" she asked in confusion.<br/><br/>"Lynne, I was there when we met, remember?"  A soft smile graced her face.  "You fancy him, just a little, right?"<br/><br/>"Y-yes, Minna..." she said, blushing madly.<br/><br/>"It's okay, Lynne,  I just want you to be careful, and not get pressed into anything you don't want, okay?  I know the Witches don't want to see you hurt, and I think Graham would kill for you if someone hurt you. Don't let your heart run away with your head."<br/><br/>"I... I'll do my best.." she said, looking up to the woman that had become like another sister to her.<br/><br/>"That's a good girl.  Now, you have a good time, and be safe, okay?"  Minna carefully cupped Lynne's cheek.<br/><br/>Lynne nodded, and hugged Minna.<br/><br/>"Good girl."  Minna returned the hug.  "Now, let's wait for the gentlemen to come back, okay?"<br/><br/>"Okay."<br/><br/>~~~~~~<br/><br/>Jimmy was a bit curious.  "Ah, sir?  Why are we both getting a jeep?  I'm sure that this is a one-man job..."<br/><br/>Graham pushed him down onto the jeep's bonnet. "Right, now listen to me Lt, and listen well." he said gruffly as he put in in a half-nelson. "You hurt Lynne's feelings, and you'll really hate the consequences. Got it?!"<br/><br/>Jimmy squirmed.  "Alright, geez!  You act like I'm proposing to her!  She's just showing me around!"<br/><br/>"She's like a daughter to me, Patterson." Graham growled.<br/><br/>"And she's like a sister to all the other Witches.  If I screw up, do you really think I'm gonna be worried about you!?"<br/><br/>Graham smirked. "Think about it for a moment, Lt."<br/><br/>"Think about what?  I make one wrong move, and this whole base will come down on my head!  What's there to think about?"<br/><br/>Graham smiled. "Just making sure you're fully aware of the consequeces of paying with Lynne's heart."<br/><br/>"Commander, I may not be upper crust British whatever-you-are, but where I come from, you don't do a girl wrong.  And if you do, expect angry men with shotguns to kick down your door."<br/><br/>"Bright lad." Graham said, letting go of him.<br/><br/>"Ow..."  Jimmy rubbed the back of his neck.  "Did you really have to do that?"<br/><br/>"It made it stick, didn't it?"<br/><br/>"Yeah.  But you could've just pointed to the hangar, and it would've done the same thing..."
