Play dead

Awkward hug

Run away

Kiss on the cheek

Buster sword rest against his forehead, in his usual manner, the FIRST class mutters his now personal mantra after a successful mission. Mako infused eyes opens and darts towards his mission partner--a new one, a new Turk agent. A smile curls his lips after seeing how she just mowed down the enemies with ease.

"Wow, you got a way with these weapons of yours, eh?" the FIRST class twirled his sword and placed it on his back, amazed by the new turk agent he got assigned a mission with. She is fierce. He thought Tseng was the hard core one, looks like this new agent is the no-mercy type. Not his type of partners but hey, it's not like he can choose them--he wishes.

"Huh?" he crossed his arms, head tilted to the side with a confused look. "O-oh ... sorry for what happened to your father, but I am not him." he shook his head and of course, whatever 'strife' comes his way, there is always a smile to fight it back. "There is nothin' wrong with having a dream! Actually, mine is to be come a hero! It's not something just brainwashed it in me. I know I want to be one not because someone sold it to me. I mean, I did see how cool SOLDIERS were when I was a kid but being cool is not just the thing that made me chose this path--I know I can MAKE a change, ya' know."

Nodding sagely, he walks in a circle and continues, "Your father chose his own path--whatever that path was, I chose mine, too. So, you did. It's about how we can face the choices we made, right? I'd like to think I'm pretty good with handling whatever comes my way. All I have to do is swing my sword and help people, right?" he flashed a smile at her. "I don't need ... a deep reason to help others, and besides, if my actions can get someone to change and pursue something they want then I'd say that's a win in my book, heh."

Hands rest over his waist, Zack took a moment, breathing in before turning back to his partner. "I get that we don't always have answers--heck, we can't even understand some situations we are thrown in, but I know we can work out anything if we just kept moving forward. Taking a break is dandy and all but stoppin'; surrenderin' is not an option in our line of work, right miss Turk?"

Dressing the part was not something the soldier disliked, in fact, he liked it. If there is a chance to change from his usual attire, he will take it! Especially on this holiday season. A lot of things had happened and ... if he can make someone smile that's good in his book. After all, a hero is not just protecting the people's peace but their smiles!

strutting in his new outfit, Zack was happy to try this new suit. He usually goes for something comfy and practical but this is not bad. He looks clean in this and perhaps will up his hit on pretty girls chances.

Index tapped gently at the flower adoring his suit, the taller male noticed someone suddenly come to a halt around the corner of his eye. He glanced to see Akira, motionless and mouth agape. Was he ... surprised? Haha! Well, of course he would! He wouldn't blame him though. It's not everyday he get to dress up nicely.

Tugging at his coat then smoothed it, he looked back up with a grin. "Heh, thanks! I look different, huh? Haha, don't worry 'bout it! I heard that line already, heh. I guess this is a sign to try something like this from time to time." He'd have asked Akira if he can impress a pretty lady but ... might not get the desired answer out of the pure sage. Sigh ... still, his reaction was cute haha.

"Father's day huh? Wonder if Ren will give me something."

Sips on his coffee because he knows Shane does not bother with these days, and neither does he.

Expectation level is damn high!! He is expecting a gift otherwise he will whine for weeks.

" . . . " he is content with seeing Elle happy. give him a tomato pls.
