[IC] Mobile Suit Gundam - Those Who Correct - Crossover

[Sugihito]

The Instructor followed the OMNI guards. "I will make sure that I can help." He answered back, concealing a pistol in one of his pockets. He had a closer look at the guards and their Mobile Suits, shockingly similar to what he remembered twenty-nine years ago, the guards wearing what looked like pinkish uniforms. "It looks like as if time has froze..." He thought in his mind. "Donna, we will do all we can to secure an alliance and I hope you will rescue us only as a last resort." Donna listened to the story of the pint-sized madwoman. It got her wondering if she will attempt to betray them at any point and it cemented an idea to her in a way that Celestial Beings are Gundam piloting psychopaths. Also killing royalty was unthinkable for her, perhaps for being a blueblood herself. "Does that concept of nobility exist in your worlds?" She asked the pilots. "The Earth-Sphere United Nations have a number of aristocrats in the government despite being a democracy as it was formed by the nobility. As far as my father told me House Lindemann is Prussian but I can trace my lineage to the Levant from his side and the nobilities of Constantinople and Moscow from my mother. We were fighting a government that is mostly democratic and I have difficulty imagining life in that system before getting sent here." Remembering lineages of one of the pilots she was supposed to be fighting alongside with is said to be the son of one of the original Gundam pilots and a descendant of some Northern European royalty through his mother.

"You really are fucking out of your mind." Grant said sadly as he was backed up by the members of the squads left behind. "I'm glad the auxiliaries aren't here otherwise they'd shit themselves." commented one of the members of Beta which was followed by a mumbled comment of disdain from SIGMA's soldiers. "You know I killed a whole party of rich snooty high class people for being just that before. Setsuna didn't like that very much though. Does that answer your question Grant? I hope it does you loser." Nena said as Grant made a frustrated noise of some sort as he gripped his suit's controls but let them go after a moment. "You're lucky we're pals for the moment Trinity..." Grant said in utter disgust. "Shove it Captain. You and your squad of blue balled yokels can suck it. As for nobility shit I don't even know what that means exactly. Yeah there's money bags everywhere just because your from some freak show universe doesn't mean it's that much different from the others. I mean we all call those advanced suits gundams right?" Nena said back to Donna. === As Paul got up and looked down the hall he spotted a contingent of armed guards coming down the hall, "Company boys come on get up here." Paul shouted down at the people as they escorted the doctor up a ramp. "Something wrong doctor?" commented Paul as they got closer. Paul's face was one of professional concern. Nothing more than making sure the guy was ok not particularly caring personally but it was still a common courtesy. "You know if you don't think you can keep moving I could let you stay here. I sense you're uneasy or am I wrong?"

[Sugihito]

It just seemed like Donna unfortunately pressed another button of atrocity revelations. Although she had the urge to kill them she remembered it was necessary to cooperate for now, thinking of what the Instructor would say. "Yes, somehow we all call them Gundam." She responded to Nena, citing the weirdest coincidence of all. "Although the outward appearance may be similar the internal structures are different I think. And we are all human I suppose." She replied further. *** The Instructor was brought out of his daydreaming. "My apologies." He replied to Paul. "Having a look around I can confirm that they are indeed the Mariemeia army from twenty-nine years ago of our world." He looked to see how they need to catch up to the others. "I didn't mean to bring concerns. We should go to meet their leader." The scientist suggested, also wishing to see Mariemeia with his own eyes. He remembered how he hasn't really told anyone in the Sundown or Donna of who he was at that time.

[vancexentan]

"Captain sir I believe that it's constants and variables at work." said one of Alpha Team's members as Grant turned to his companion whom was in the suit next to his. "Yeah Jason was muttering somethin' about that earlier in the cafeteria." Grant said as Nena chuckled, "Oh blow me it's just a big set of coincidences. So yeah we all got the same names for these special suits big deal. You all have no idea what a GN Drive is and I've never seen a suit that blocks physical attacks like the gundams you got. It's all irrelevant in the end isn't it?" commented Nena as Yuri chimed in, "You know I know plenty about those things now. There's a reason I'm on this damn ship! It's because I know how to work machines like a god! Those things produce particles that are powered infinitely through some intricate machinery. It's job is to power that suit and unlike your broken ass suit Trinity that Virtue suit can produce them infinitely I'd guess assuming that they're in proper repair." Yuri commented with a sense of satisfaction as Nena ignored his comments. === "It's alright Instructor I just wanted to make sure you-what the hell..." Paul said as the group coming down the hall finally got here. He hadn't really looked for it but he saw, unmistakably, on the lead man's suit was an OMNI Enforcer symbol. The man wore a dark blue mask that covered the top of his head and went all the way down to his nose. His uniform itself was, on closer inspection, definitely that of an OMNI Enforcer soldier's except instead of blue it was tan and black. He had a thin build and his voice was smooth and calm like running water but as icy as anything you'd find in the poles. He apparently had short dark brownish and blackish hair but it was mostly covered up by the mask. "My name is Kenta Yamoka. To be more precise I'm Commander Kenta Yamoka. East OMNI ORB Division. Nice to meet you." The man said in a dour state as he offered his hand to Paul. The other soldiers looked to their lieutenant hesitantly unsure about why the hell there was someone like this here. Paul himself managed to keep himself calm but inside he was nervous now. Another OMNI soldier? They'd just received that lieutenant boy a few days ago and then there was Stella... now they found another within this group of people? What the hell was going on here? They were either really lucky or something was going on here. Paul also never heard nor did he know of any 'ORB Division' within OMNI. "I'm Lieutenant Paul 'Black Star' Lyons and I'm glad to see a friendly face around here. I'm here to speak to Mariemaia Commander Kenta sir." Paul said as professionally as he could muster as Kenta simply smiled. "I know. I'm the one who suggested we try this whole thing. Mariemaia had a scout watching the skirmishes with those units you've been fighting the past day or two. And she recognized a certain gundam was with you. The apparently outdated Sandrock Gundam." Kenta said as Paul had to mentally stop himself from tightening his grip as he let go of the man's hand. "Of course...Of course I just hope that this goes well. I look forward to seeing Mariemaia."

[Zarkun]

Jack followed everyone into the hall, remaining at a relaxed tense in case something went wrong and fighting broke out. He didn't like being in the middle of the enemy base, a neutral location would have been better, but then again, they took what they could get. He watched Commander Kenta introduce himself and listened to the short exchange. It's creepy how many people wear those masks across multiple universes...

[GreenGoat]

Yes, that engineer knows a bit too much about the GN Drives already. She would have to make sure to kill everyone when she could return to her own time, so Celestial Being's secret would be safe. Reve was sure the old man wouldn't have taken the possibility that everyone and their mother would have things powered by those drives into account. Oh, and she'd have to take Stella too. Whatever happened to her, she didn't trust any of those people here to not take advantage of her. Celestial Being could keep her safe. "...safe." "I'll keep you safe," the woman smiled, extending a hand out to her. Surprised, Reve could barely muster a reaction, before she hesitantly reach out and Reve yawned, snapping herself out of that line of thought. What happened in the past didn't matter now. For now.... "Ah... I wish something would happen already." Perhaps she could just set Exia to auto while she took a nap until everything was over.

[vancexentan]

It seemed Kenta would be disappointed if he expected anything from anyone so he instead turned around and told the group to follow them and that they'd see Mariemaia soon enough. Kenta would walk down the hall and explain about how he got here in the first place stating he was in a battle and had gotten separated from his men whom were a group of gundam pilots like himself. Paul questioned what gundam he piloted but he refused to say so. Eventually they arrived at a large room in the middle of the facility. In the middle was a table and there were men surrounding a door nearby, "Men I have brought the guests of honor." Kenta commented to one of the soldiers as he saluted and then tapped on the wall, "Miss Mariemaia! The people you've requested to come have arrived." one of the men shouted down the hall at which came no response. Kenta left the lead of the group and went down to a nearby chair. "Please remain standing until Mariemaia has arrived!" one of the guards said as Kenta chuckled, "Fine as you will." he said with humor in his voice as he stood up. A large contingent of troops came walking down the hallway in blue uniforms and the lined it from left to right and saluted forward and stood at attention as one of the troopers announced Miss Mariemaia. Paul thought the fan fare was typical military show casing from back in the day when suddenly a rather pretty young girl about a couple years younger than himself came walking down the hall dressed in a pretty military uniform with a skirt. She was almost as tall as the men whom served her and she had long orange hair and bright blue eyes. She was no what Paul was expecting per say. "Was this the person you were expecting?" Paul whispers to the instructor as she bowed to them formally and then sat down, "You may be seated now." Mariemaia said in a smooth voice. Paul saluted her and did so but the OMNI soldiers insisted that they themselves stood.

[Sugihito]

Instructor W observed the ceremonies performed by the guards, comparable to OZ. He stood as he waited for Mariemeia to appear and when she did he was caught offguard. "I remembered her younger." He whispered back. The scientist tried to think on what is happening right know and it turned out to be the Mariemeia he doesn't know. Judging by appearance she is a young adult but younger than Donna and remembering how there are parallel worlds like the one Neina came from then she must be from one of those other timelines. He returned a salute to the woman and took a seat. Also from how this Kenta person talked about seeing Sandrock and commented as an old model then hiding it turned out to be rather pointless. If that is so then he would've brought Donna here. Remembering how Paul is the leader of the delegation he decdied to speak on his behalf unless requested. *** Inside the Sandrock Donna took off her helmet seeing how there isn't any battle alerts and looked at her personal seal on it. The seal had a gold double-headed eagle with a shield of black, green, red and white, holding the shotels with each of it's talons. She found Reve going quiet presumably out of boredom and she herself did the best to try and stay awake. Remembering how the Celestial Being pilot revelled in killing the innocent she had to keep an eye on her for any betrayals.

[vancexentan]

Suddenly a signal popped up on the screens of the pilots in the Sundown, it was an audio only signal from within the ship itself and it was being patched through by Williams, "Hello...I hope everyone is doing well." said the voice of Stella as she mumbled into a microphone from most likely the medical bay. "I'm here to wish you good luck if something goes wrong. I know I may not have the right to say so given my previous allegiance but I believe, as a member of OMNI Enforcer, that...I should at least wish you all the best. Mr. Wilbur insists that I stay behind unless absolutely needed due to my condition. If possible I'd be alongside you in Gaia even though it hurts to be in there that is the place where I am meant to be. I...I hope that I am not being nosy in saying this but...thank you again and even those whom aren't members of OMNI I wish you the same." Stella's voice came quietly before the signal was terminated, manually by either Stella or Wilbur, and the next voice that came was Grant's, "I see well at least I know one of the strays we haven't picked up isn't completely fuckin' loopy." He said with a sigh and a smile. "Too bad she helped fight us that kinda makes a black mark for her though." Grant said with a chuckle as one of his teammates agreed while the others said that she was probably just misinformed. After all Paul trusted her why not them? === Paul started the negotiations by informing Mariemaia about what exactly their group of men where, to be exact what organization they were a part of and not their actual role, which Paul hoped Kenta didn't know about. If Kenta was loyal to Mariemaia to any extent he could ask specific questions to Black Star to force him spill some of his guts or lie through his teeth. It was more or less the same explanation Jason had given the other members of the crew like Graham, and Saturnalia before he, Paul, killed her. "My role is Second in Command as well as a squad leader. I am the first and last line of defense for my ship and I am here to question you on why exactly you want to ally with us and how much you know of us. Please be straight forward with us Miss Mariemaia I am trusting you with my life right now and just being here is a risk. I refuse to ally with someone whom isn't willing to repay what we give in return." Paul commented as Mariemaia nodded and smiled at him coyly. Paul could sense that she was...amused? His newtype powers weren't exactly as good as they could be in terms of reading people but he could still sense somethings from people when he wanted to even non-newtypes. "Risk? I assure you there is no 'risk' being here this is a simple talk and if I wanted you dead I'd have ambushed you already wouldn't I? I have the second command of the enemy right here why wouldn't I just cut off the right hand if I was here to kill you?" Mariemaia said politely and with a cute laugh. "You know I have so little interest in talking about that sort of subject that I'd ask you if we could move on from such unpleasant talks. Tell me Mr. Paul Lyons what exactly would your interest be in finding out some interesting information and gaining a new ally while we're at it?" She asked simply as Paul smiled, "I'd think that would be a very large plus in my corner so tell me why exactly are you so willing to do this for us? We don't know each other and we haven't had reason to trust another faction here, especially Zeon fanatical pricks, so why trust us? Is it because of Commander Kenta?" Paul asked as he turned to look at Kenta who chuckled in return and looked directly at Paul specifically, "I had a part of it but in reality Mariemaia is the real reason why you're here." Kenta commented slyly as Mariemaia cleared her throat, "I am the head of this company Commander Yamoka and I will not be upstaged in this matter please remain silent unless I give you a reason to talk." Mariemaia said very bluntly and clearly her voice filled with pride. Kenta simply backed down and apologized. "Well if you must insist on knowing it's because the enemy of my enemy is my friend in this matter. Those suits whom are attacking you have been causing us a problem being on our flank. They have been harassing us lately as well. Most likely they want our base. In your case I guess they may just see you as an obstacle in their way of doing something or another. I guess one way or another they want you gone." commented Mariemaia as she leaned forward, "If you're willing to ally with us and help us wipe out the enemy we will give you some valuable information regarding an organization called 'ZAFT' whatever that may be." Mariemaia said plainly as Paul struggled to remain calm. So it was true...ZAFT was here...well then...he'd need to deal with that.

[Zarkun]

Jack almost demanded the information right then and there. Almost being the operative term, as he reminded himself swiftly that he was currently in a potentially hostile area and that he was already on thin ice after his argument with Graham earlier. But if he was going to be of any use, he needed to know what suits the ZAFT faction was piloting and if they'd fielded any that had been stolen from the Earth Alliance or if they were keeping to their own designs. I hate letting them hold that kind of information over us...

[vancexentan]

"Very well I will agree to this business arrangement. It's mutually beneficial that we work together in these trying times, and that, if possible, we can help one another in order to go back to our own homes wherever they may be. Also before we finish up I'd like to ask you, by any chance did you know of a girl named Naina Peacecraft?" Paul questioned Mariemaia whom seemed genuinely surprised by the question, "No there are only two Peacecrafts from where I hailed form one was the brutal terrorist Milliardo and the other the Queen of Peace Relena Peacecraft. Neither of them have any children I suspect and I believe that is for the best." Mariemaia said and Paul quickly informed her of the kid's demise against a man named Anavel Gato when suddenly Kenta spoke up, "I'll be staying here with Mariemaia however we will keep in close contact. Witz and a few of our other pilots will be assisting you in this mission. However I'd like to say one thing: I sense that the majority of you are uneasy, as if it wasn't clear by the looks on your faces, but you there Lieutenant...no not you Black Star but the one next to you. I feel that you're not exactly happy at this moment is there a reason behind this soldier? Speak up this is an order by your Commander." Kenta said bluntly and firmly as Lyons looked at Kenta, "With all due respect Commander sir I am his superior officer and you are not in charge of me or us. I may not know Mr. Jack here well but he will not answer your questions unless he wants to." Paul said with surprising coldness to Kenta as the man frowned at him deeply, "Fair enough Lieutenant. But I'd at least like to know why this man here is with you. He isn't OMNI and he hasn't spoken up at all. Why is he here?" Kenta questioned and prodded further as he looked over towards the Instructor. "I believe we all have the right to know who we are working with." commented Kenta as he stared directly at the director projecting a sense of dread and power.

[Zarkun]

Jack shook his head and stepped forward. "No, it's fine Lieutenant. They're right, they deserve to know who they're working with, same as we deserve to know." Looking the pair in the eye, he stands at attention. "Lieutenant Jack Jameson, Earth Alliance Forces Gundam pilot for the Gundam Duel. And I respectfully request to know what suits this ZAFT faction you're withholding information about is fielding. I may have information on how to best engage them."

[vancexentan]

"Were you not listening to me you insolent peon? I said I will give you the information after we've conducted our business. If you can't wait until then that is your problem. What's the point of giving you our information if you're just going to leave and fight them? No I'm simply content to sit here and wait until we've gotten rid of one threat and then we'll let you go and do with your information as you will." Mariemaia said indignantly as Paul frowned, "I wouldn't press this matter further clearly this alliance is beneficial to us. Worst case being that they're lying, which I don't believe they are, and we're getting rid of another threat. Lieutenant patience is a virtue I learned early on in my career. What would Captain Jason say if he saw you acting this way right now demanding information from someone on the off chance you do know something about the enemy?" Paul said as he apologized on behalf of Jame's affront attitude to Mariemaia. He felt disgusted that he needed to do this and felt humiliated because of it. OMNI Soldiers should have more self control but it was clear Jameson lacked this or at least was too concerned on the name drop of ZAFT. Kenta...Kenta was the big problem here not ZAFT. If he was what he said he was then that meant this OMNI Soldier was taking Mariemaia's side instead of theirs. "Hmph fine Lieutenant Paul I accept you apology just keep your dogs from biting at me and I will answer your questions on that I promise."

[Zarkun]

Jack tensed, but held his position and spoke again. "With all due respect, Lieutenant, they wanted to know what was on my mind. I answered. You don't need to apologize for anything, whether they like it or not." After that, he relaxed and locked eyes with both Commander Kenta and Mariemaia. "I meant no disrespect with my answer, but you did request I say what was on my mind. I simply gave you the answer you sought. No need to get offended where offence wasn't meant."

[vancexentan]

"I was under the assumption that you had something to contribute to the conversation or otherwise. Not to demand answers or offer answers that I myself am already capable of giving out." Kenta said simply as he shrugged. "Well next time think before you do something Kenta." Mariemaia commented as Kenta nodded and apologize with some sarcasm leaking out of his voice but Mariemaia let it go or didn't notice. "I'm still in charge of the delegation Mr. Jack. It is my duty to give apologies be it I like it or not even for small offenses or mistakes. I'd make a poor Captain if I let my men take punishment for me." Paul said simply.

[Sugihito]

Instructor W silently listened to the conversation and observed the young adult Mariemeia shoot down the voices around her. He found it like a reflection of her father that Lord Lindemann would've rallied under. Although their stance against the Earth Sphere isn't clear, he may have to agree with the alliance as long as it keeps him and Donna safe.

***

Donna noted Stella's voice. "Hello. You are Stella right?" She responded. "Thank you for your concerns. I look forward to fight alongside you when you get better." After the conversation with Stella was done the Gundam pilot listened to Grant. "Attacking us before joining our side may be a demerit." She agreed. "But if she can help us survive then I say she is welcome." Actually the thought of Paul got her thinking. "Excuse me, what can you tell me about Blackstar?" She asked the veteran OMNI pilot. "I found it difficult to socialise with."

[vancexentan]

"The Lieutenant? To be honest I've served with him but I only know some basic stuff about the guy. He's kind of rolled around in a ball of red tape that has big black words on it that say 'DO NOT TOUCH' if you get my drift." Grant said as he considered what he knew of his Lieutenant. The man was fiercely loyal to OMNI that much was clear. But what could he say that would really answer Donna's question. "Alright without having the Captain rip me a new one I'll tell you what I can. Lieutenant Paul Lyons is the head of a team that is missing called OMEGA Squad which consisted of some of Jason's men from back when he first started out. They get along really well and them being missing could be helping that not being social out a little. He's one of the youngest pilots on this ship and yet he is not only our superior officer but he is one of our very best pilots too. He's fought in multiple continents and has a extreme hatred of ZAFT after one the gundam pilots on our side defected to their side. He's fought in North America, Europe, and Africa not to mention space. It's rumored that he's engaged or married to someone but it's just a rumor among the crew. He's also one of the most demanding assholes I've ever served with he wants you to do something you will do it or he'll chew you out or demote you. Just don't tell him I said that please. If you want to know more about the Lieutenant ask him yourself that's all I can say."

===

"Alright then if you would excuse us Mariemaia I suppose we'll be going. Please transmit the location and the information you have on the enemy and we will meet with your men and ambush the enemy. They'll be broken and we will be waiting for the information you have for us. Good day to you Miss Mariemaia." Paul said as he was excused by Mariemaia. "Kenta would you like to come with us sir?" Paul asked Kenta who simply chuckled and shook his head once, "No thank you Lieutenant. I thank you for your offer but I'm use to being in command of my own men. I may as well stay where I am so I don't screw with your chain of command. Oh and goodbye too all of you too including you Lieutenant Jameson." Kenta said as Paul nodded and walked away his soldiers trailing behind him. They were being escorted back to their suits by a squad of Mariemaia's finest...but Paul was hardly impressed. He'd say these men were good by the way they walked but were just barely above the normal ZAFT soldier. And those people were militia. However Paul could be wrong, very wrong at that, and was just judging them on the way they held themselves. He remembered the European soldiers he had fought with at London and Berlin and knew how one could underestimate soldiers like them very well. "Good job men we've gotten the job done...but don't let your guard down yet only fools leave themselves open." Paul said to his soldiers and was greeted with a group comment of 'yes lieutenant sir.' by the group of soldiers with him. "What's that suppose to mean?" questioned one of Mariemaia's soldiers as Paul informed him that it was just a precaution and he meant nothing by it. Eventually they got back to their suits and transport and entered without trouble. The soldiers whom were guarding them hailed their lieutenant.

When Paul got back into his suit and powered it up he was almost immediately hailed by one of the communications officers, "Are you okay Lieutenant? I hope you're alright" came the new girl...Baker wasn't it? Strange he didn't expect anyone but Williams or Axer to speak to him over this line. "I'm fine don't worry about me I'm just glad nothing went bad." Paul commented not really paying attention to Baker who sighed in relief. "Patching through Captain Jason." commented Baker quickly as Jason came on through all of the suits and the transport. "This is your Captain please report." Jason said calmly but if Paul knew his Captain, and he knew his captain very well, then Jason was really apprehensive. "Everything was good sir. I've gotten the job done. I've negotiated somethings with Mariemaia but we're going to need to fight a mutual enemy with them before we get some information regarding some ZAFT operatives. Please wait until I get back to the ship." Paul said as Jason smiled and sighed back in the ship. "Good I'd knew you'd handle it Lieutenant. If anyone could do it...it was you. And I also give my regards and thanks to the Instructor. It's not easy to go through with this sort of thing as a neutral." Jason commented as he bade all of his men a good job and turned off the signal. However Graham sent a signal to Paul as the group launched into the air to get back to the ship, "So it seems there won't be a battle. I won't lie to you Lieutenant...I'm disappointed that I won't get to fight that man Witz again." Graham said his voice plain and lacking emotion or passion like he was getting use to hearing out of Graham, "You know Graham I think you'll get your chance just yet if not then maybe I could help you calm down a bit with a gundam fight." Paul said calmly as Graham chuckled, "You know I might just take you up on that offer. But I don't think now's the right time maybe some other time Lieutenant." Graham responded.

[Sugihito]

Donna listened to Grant's description. "I see." She replied. Thinking about it, having him as a superior would be tough for her. Well, she was hardly military in the first place. "I will keep my mouth shut." She also promised, seeing how he was worried about Paul finding out. Another look at the stopwatch was also given to see how much more it will take for the meeting with Mariemeia to end. Sandrock's aircon kept her cool and it was tempting to fall asleep in the cockpit. The Gundam pilot can't afford to fall asleep however as she needs to be ready for any operation.

[vancexentan]

As Paul and the others arrived back at The Sundown in the off distance away was a single mobile suit. "Well well well...what do we have here? Interesting..." said the pilot as she pulled back her suit to avoid been seen by anyone. "I can sense powerful amount of quantum brain waves how very interesting." commented the young pilot as she started to fly away. "I guess I'll have to see what they're up to after all no group of people like that gather without reason." she said simply.

===

As Paul exited his Raigo Gundam he was met by a very livid Nena Trinity, "Hey what the hell!? You just keep us waiting out here for nothing? What's the big deal?" Nena demanded of him as he simply looked down at her with distaste. He started to wonder why she wasn't back in her cell..."I do know that your yelling at the man who is feeding you so why don't you take your scrawly little ass out of here and back to your room before I kick it out of the airlock. I've got important things to do that don't involve screaming little sociopaths like you." Paul said bluntly as one of the nearby SIGMA soldiers pulled Nena out of the way. Nena glared at Paul but kept her mouth shut. She was pissed but she knew better than to piss off someone like him in this place. Graham followed Paul, "So what exactly happened over there?" he questioned the Lieutenant as Paul started to wonder why no one would ever give him a second to breath before doing something like asking him questions. He just got done leading an expedition party where one of the primary people there did little to nothing. He was no diplomat..."Short version is that they want us to go and kill people Aker what else is new..." Paul said grumpily as he pushed his way through the crowd of soldiers not even bothering to stop in the changing room to remove his suit. "Wow looks like someone is grumpy." muttered Grant as Graham shrugged. "From what I have gathered from the Lieutenant this past week is that he prefers decisive blows rather than complicated plans. Him acting like this just means he's frustrated. That's how I'd feel if I was bogged down in politics. Especially ones that involve senseless killing." Graham commented as Grant simply shrugged, "Hey whatever you say big fella." he commented patting Graham on the back.
