At the mention of the demon, Val's eyes twitch ever so slightly that you wouldn't ever notice. As Aidan expressed how they had defeated it, she felt her body tense over. She herself didn't know how they defeated it. Was that...thing...still within her? She wondered. She felt fine though. She caught his gaze momentarily as the general turned his attention to the holotable and prepared their research team. Guess no time for downtime. They had work to do.
"Zeta has every need for it to be called for in this situation, Inquisitor. You encountered one of the strongest demons there are out there, have no recollection of how you defeated it and this planet did not exist until a few days ago." The general retorts.
Valentisha winces at Aidan and back to the General. She saluted him. "We understand, Sir." She was now beginning to understand the extent to Aidan's rebellious nature, to which he questioned his superior's judgement. With her elbow extended, she used it to nudge his bicep. Meaning, 'stop questioning the general or we'll face his wrath'.
"Glad to hear it Inquisitor Vivier." The general held a tone that signified that he was impressed. "Someone of such a fine understanding to the needs of such things, makes a fine partner for Inquisitor Crowe. Perhaps if he were to take a leaf out of your book, he would have made Captaincy by now.." Maybe it was a personal dig at Aidan, maybe over losing his former partner. Even as cold as she was, Valentisha felt it was still uncalled for. She shot Aidan a sympathetic glance.
"You have your orders. Dismissed." Valentisha nodded, brought a closed fist to her chest and stomped her right heel down to the floor and turned on her heel to take her leave. Her 3/4 length cape sifted upward and furrowed out behind her.
