Cassius wasn’t very nervous when he had first decided to come to the meeting. After all he had been through, this wasn’t much. No, he only became nervous once he saw some of the other people that had shown up to participate as well. He recognised some of them from his days in the military. Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Seymon Maxim, an intimidating hulk of a man. Over 200 confirmed kills and a look on his face that seemed to give the impression that he wouldn’t be opposed to adding to that number. Then there was the more intimidating of the two, Staff Sergeant Hawthorne Balthazar. It’s true that Alexander was a far more physically intimidating man, but there was a different air about Hawthorne. Almost like he enjoyed to fight, a sentiment that Cassius was never able to share. The men defiantly noticed that he was there, but they didn’t seem to say anything. Perhaps they didn’t know who he was? Maybe they knew but didn’t care. Either way, Cassius was nervous to be around soldiers from the Northern Frontier. They could fairly easily report his current location to the Frontier. But after a few moments, Cassius put that thought to rest. If they were here, then they must not have too much to do with the Frontier these days. As he began to look around the room at the other people that had joined him, some men came into the room.

He watched as the others got up and left. He took particular notice of a man that that had been talking to himself earlier. It seemed as though the man had several cybernetic parts, somewhat rare around these parts. He had to be a military man of one sort of another, but it seemed as though Cassius was unaware of him. Come to think of it, there really wasn’t anyone else in the room that Cassius recognised. His intel seemed to extend to officers of his own nation, but not much beyond that. He wasn’t in active duty long enough to have gathered the military information that others seemed to be privy to. The others that were left in the room with him and Lieutenant Colonel Maxim didn’t seem like military types. They had more of a vagabond vibe about them, not that Cassius was any to judge someone on their values. The past is the past, and right now, everyone in this room was an equal, and even a possible ally.

[color=yellow]“Okay you guys, ya'll wanna have some fun? Head to the hangar where yall have parked and get inside your mechs, meet me by the flatland are near the back of the compound. Got a surpside for ya!"[/color]

This was a little disarming to Cassius. Get into your mech for some fun? Something about this put him on edge, there wasn’t much fun to be had in a machine designed for the destruction and decimation of other people’s lives but it seemed as though this might be some kind of initiation, so he simply stood and followed the man into the hanger. As he walked he glanced over to the Lieutenant Colonel and offered him a knowing nod. Cassius might have abandoned his post and disgraced himself, but he was still a military boy at heart and an officer of rank deserved respect, his father had been sure to teach him that. The others however, Cassius wasn’t sure about. Both the man and the woman gave off a vibe that he wasn't totally sure he trusted. Cassius was a little naive about the things beyond the military world, but he tended to trust his instincts whenever he could. Never the less, he walked over to them to introduce himself.

[color=tomato]“Hey, my name is Cassius”[/color] he said as he smiled and offered his hand out to the woman first. [color=tomato]“It looks like we might be working together, so I thought it only right to introduce myself”[/color] He was a little nervous, he had run across a few people in his time traveling that had been a little less than welcoming to new people, so he always took care to be on edge when introducing himself. You never know what someone might try when they think you have your guard down.
