Mutants & Masterminds: Mecha Mayhem - A Break From This

[Jaime Lowery]

Between 2.2 and 3.0, two days after 2.2

Conrad panted as the Caballeros followed Murrue's intense instruction as they performed various duties in the hangar of the ship. The sweat and heat was killing him, and he found the thrill of combat to make up for any adverse battlefield conditions. This, on the other hand, was bloody torture.

But, as he risked a quick glance to check the time, it was nearly over, so he managed to redouble some floor mopping he'd been assigned.

"Good man!" Murrue complimented him as she passed on watch. As soon as her back had been turned, Conrad shot a dirty look at her.

Finally, after ten more minutes of this hell. Murrue shouted for attention. "Lucky news boys, time to get out. Clean off and get ready for your dinners!"

With relief, Conrad tossed the mop and darted off, leaving the group behind for a few minutes. After reaching the showers, he stripped, cleaned off, and then exited with his clothes quickly put back on until he could change.

Returning to his room, changing fast, then moving out, he remembered this state of affairs would last five more days. Fucking hell.
