"...ouch." But eighteen, huh? Allenby wasn't even that age yet. Definitely it was old enough to make your own decisions and join the military on your own. And for Trudy, it sounded like it had been better than her own family...
And constantly going into life-or-death situations? Yeah. Maybe it wasn't that surprising that she'd been such a hardass over the whole thing.
...Follow orders or die. Come to think of it, it had usually worked the opposite way for Allenby.
"Out in battles like NiSaris, I get that. If I didn't do what you and Kira said right away, I could see that my friends were gonna die. But... it ain't so easy for me to see at other times. And since you've been at this so long, you wouldn't expect anything but that in any situation, huh? Even if nobody's shooting at us right then."
