Sunbucks Cafe

[Zeeroi]

Recruit Officer Zeeroi Talbot has just finished a major patrol through Texas which involved a lot of action with the Rheinland Military. The kind of action most LPI officers hope to never encounter. After typing up his patrol report, and eagerly awaiting word of a promotion he heads into Sunbucks to grab a coffee and a well deserved doughnut.

Zeeroi: Hey there, one black coffee and a doughnut please, sir.

Bartender: No problem, you must be new around here if your calling me "sir", new recruit?

Zeeroi: Yep, I guess so, pretty new, just finished my 5th patrol, done my reports and I'm hoping to get promoted soon.

Three Navy officers walk in, they have a scruffy look about them, and their body language suggests they are looking for trouble.

Navy Officer 1: What do we have here? A new recruit? Coffee and a doughnut already? You really are destined for greatness among the ranks of the LPI. I can see that muffin top poking out over your utility belt.

Zeeroi: I'm just here on break, had a long day with Rheinlanders in Texas, doing your work for you, so cut me some slack and leave me be.

Navy Officer 2: Woahohh! This one has attitude! Don't you know who we are, Recruit?

Sergeant Jonas Valent walks in.

Jonas: and don't you know WHERE you are? This Sunbucks, LPI territory, leave my recruit alone before I report your disorderly behaviour to Roy Sanders himself! What is even going on with your uniform these days? Looks like a nuclear mine went off in your washing machine. Get out of here.

Zeeroi: Sorry about that Jonas, I ain't done nothing wrong, just came straight here after writing that report.

Jonas: No harm done, now report to the Leavenworth, they need to speak to you about something, not sure what, maybe about those Rheinlanders you saw, what happened out there?

Zeeroi: Can't say, I'm sorry, but it was mad out there.

A bit shaken after his first experience in Sunbucks, Zeeroi leaves to fly to the Leavenworth, hoping that when he returns his visit will be more welcoming and less hostile.
