I think the timing's pretty fucking fishy
[He's skeptical. Most people seem to be. It was hard to trust the instructors completely, but Warriorhead and Armada had been generally well liked. Had made a point to try and keep their respective teams alive from the start, and even a stubborn bastard like him could admit it.
But.]

she liked bragging about dagger
[So the odds are if she'd taken them out the same way, they'd know about it.]

she's calling herself acting captain.
[There doesn't appear to be much she isn't the boss of, right now. It's fishy. You don't just get promoted from grunt to officer to captain that fast, even if you kill a traitor for the higher ups.]

it's not gonna matter what team we're on if things get worse

[a squint, and he - tries - to muster up an idea of what she speaks of, but it barely makes it off the metaphorical thinking dock. after everything, narrow minded thinking meant strong, strong blinders.]

amber is orange but i still think youd make a better blue!! even though blue's mostly orange and yellow's whatever it is and honestly the rainbows were better, can we go back to that?

[very, very true. unseen: jaw tightening, knuckles whitening around a blackglass. discomfort pricks his every nerve, but aside from a nervously tapping leg, he keeps quiet.]

especially with the planet we're on, times seem like they're changing. why are we even here? it sounds like they're talking about colonizing this earth

[He's not too worried about Hinata's reassignment, honestly. Because Hinata's come this far on willpower, come a long way from the panicked newbie he'd been on his first drop, and he's not as skilled a solider as some of the crew but he's not a pushover. There are plenty of people he trusts on green to watch his back.
Which is good. Because—]

she doesn't even know why we're here
[But something is definitely up. CDC personnel. "The Prospector." Traitors and rebels and Dagger maybe not necessarily being as dead as Honey thinks he is. On one hand, it's encouraging. On the other, it's trouble. They're still working blind.
It's dangerous. It's changing. They're moving forward.
So.]

this isn't gonna be like macha. you ready?
[After the station. After the drop. After the transfer. It's been a while since he's really spoken to Hinata.]

You like to cut cabbage in half??
And I don't know, where in the world is amber topped with green hair? Maybe you should be in green team, not me. AND if that's true, maybe I should retire, since orange team is done and my hair color doesn't fit anywhere else

but that's me being mello-dramatic

since me and him are both in green, I'll keep an eye on him, don't worry. I haven't forgotten
