I suppose Taylor does have an established pattern of going for the eyes.
If her team wasn’t so sparse on members, she could have done a lot more damage.
Yeah, that’s probably true.
“My bugs are telling me they’re over there, there and there,” I pointed in the direction of our teammates. “That’s all I can do for you. I kind of got shot, not sure I’m up to running around.”
Fair. Grue?

Yeah, that’s a bit of a high-priority concern.
“I’m okay, it was nonlethal. I think,” I assured him, “Go!”
He did, glancing over his shoulder to look at me before disappearing back into the midst of the darkness.
My shipping of Brian and Taylor has largely subsided ever since the rejection, but there’s still a part of me that’s shouting about how much Brian seems to care about Taylor in this moment. Even though most people would show a similar level of concern if their (tentative) friend and teammate told them they just got shot.
