A meeting on Matsue base

[Bakamono]

"At ease officer. Now, I realise you feel strongly about this whole situation, but you must realise: publicly, it appears that you insult Ishikawa with your accusations.

If you have suspicions about someone, I want you to come here and speak directly to myself or Nagata. Though I will say this: most of the men and women with us now have come through the Gallic offensive, and those who did not, have seen what we are up against and held fast. It would take a lot more than a pretty face and a pair of breasts to turn them.'€

The older woman let a calming breath loose '€œPublicly, you understand I will have to reprimand you. You know, you cannot let your heart get interfere on duty.
Personally, I am happy for you, it has hard to go through life alone: and he is a fine man, not exactly to my taste, but respectable nonetheless. Now, I suggest you start resisting your impulses to tease or punish him, until you are off-duty. That Ayaka, well: she has neither your fire nor your looks - i would not worry about her."
