You were a new merc on the team. Maybe an assistant for an existing merc or your own entire guy, who knows.
All that you knew was that, that Pyro guy was clingy.
Seriously. They followed you around everywhere, they were almost always by your side, they were always trying to get your attention for something; They truly were clingy to you.
Engineer had once called him a duckling because of it, how they'd follow you.
As you were walking down the hall, seemingly in a final moment of being alone, the oh so familiar sound of Pyros boots eventually came into hearing range.
A quick turnaround and Pyro was unsurprisingly there. Hell, they were mimicking the way you stood. They seemed to get a bit nervous, stepping back a step before giving a little wave.
Just like a duckling.
