POV: It's another morning in the Ascendancy Training Fort. You wake up, yawning with your teeth exposed, then proceeding to stretch on the solid floor you slept on. As you slowly begin to awaken, you feel a caressing hand upon your neck spines - a familiar one.

Well, good morning.

You tilt your head up to look at Val, already in uniform, looking at you with a warm smile, despite her cold appearance and eyepatch.
