Like every day on the moon base, today was slow. Uneventful. And it didn't help that Echo was set on adhering to protocol regardless. At his vexing insistence, Hevy checked the monitors again. Scans and visuals were clear, unsurprisingly.

When they were first assigned to this outpost under Sergeant O'Niner, the Domino Squad had been ecstatic. They'd been through trials and tribulations, and had beaten the odds to get this far. But as the eternal night of Rishi moon set in, their enthusiasm waned, and tensions were somewhat elevated.

Echo and Droidbait were content with the inactivity, while Hevy and Fives felt woefully understimulated. Cutup was somewhere in between.
