The Kaiju Runt in the Room....

One fine day, someone posts a general video message on the Unity Group network.

"Hello! This is Ranger Yancy Beckett, on loan with his brother from the Pan Pacific Defense Corps."

He smiles. "I've been impressed by everyone I've met here, and I'm looking forward to defending the Earth with you all!"

His smile fades. "That being said, there's something that I've been meaning to ask folks, something that's been bugging me for a bit." He fidgets, then blurts out:

"Why are there so many kids here?"

And yes. There is something worrying about these two. The former is a consummate professional on a level that is not normal for his age. The latter is... not stable.

"Damn straight he's not." Yancy says, referring to Leos. "And as much as he talks up this Lana employer of his, no one with a heart would hire someone in his mental condition as a freaking gladiator-mercenary!"

Is there a psychologist on the base? Any of the bases? I do believe that boy would greatly benefit from a visit to one.

"I'll go ask." Yancy says. "Worst case scenario, I know a few at the PPDC who could do some virtual consultations."
