Bab 36: Derogatory Remarks

"You are one of the so-called military nerds or gun freaks, aren't you? Elsie asked Captain Ava as she stood there by the window side, planning on what she would do next. 

She responded to Elsie who was busy with talking. She had already lost her sense of sacredness because of how friendly the woman was and she wondered if that was how they were going to come out of the whole situation together. Elsie continued to talk without minding the disapproving look Ava gave her. 

"Haven't you seen an action movie with one of those?" "I haven't." She snickered and turned the other way, concentrating on what Riley was doing. 

"Would you mind telling me what that gun uses? And what powers it." She said, admiring the smooth yet brusque way with which he handled the equipment. He handled it as though he had been using the thing for a very long time now. Riley looked up and a smile flashed across his features, earning a scowl from Elsie.
