"I guess so. Well, for a little while longer, at least. If nothing comes through, we may as well go back to the base," she said with a shrug. This Scout was much different from the hyperactive, loudmouth types that usually filled the position. However, all of them tended to be under thirty years old. "Either way, we're all going to end up splitting once our contracts end. Or we quit. Whichever comes first."

"es sayin' goo'bye forever...." Demoman slurred, clapping a hand on Scout's shoulder.
Engie sat himself down next to the weapons locker. "Demo, I don't reckon it's quite that serious - " He stopped, looking at the doorway.
The door to the supply room slid open, drawing the mercs' attention towards the person now standing in the doorway. It was Miss Pauling, right-hand woman to the Administrator and the person pretty much responsible for the care and feeding of the mercenaries. She also made sure they didn't go to jail.

Scout laughed softly. "Maybe some of us won't completely disappear after we leave, who knows," she said before looking at Miss Pauling. "Hey there, miss. What's going on?" she asked, tilting her head slightly, dark blue eyes locked on the familiar face of Miss Pauling. Usually, Scout would've shrugged off Demoman's hand right now (which probably covered most of her shoulder), but Miss Pauling had thoroughly distracted her.

Sniper simply sat and waited for Pauling to give some info

Re: [TF2] Mann Down
Scout started to analyze Miss Pauling's face. Perhaps she could get a clue from whatever expression Miss Pauling had on, whether it was positive, negative, etc. Scout's own brow furrowed slightly in thoughtful contemplation.

Re: [TF2] Mann Down
Miss Pauling stands before the team, before making a small cough to make sure she had everyone's attention.
"Look, I'm not going to sugar-coat this for you," she starts, "Redmond Mann, your employer, is dead. Same with Blutarch, BLU's employer."
"As you may guess, this makes the lot of you unemployed."
The RED Spy, puffing out a bit smoke, speaking up,
"If that's the case, why are we still here?"
"Quite simple," Miss Pauling answers, "Mann Co. is offering a new job. For both teams."

Scout looked thunderstruck. "... what's this new job?" she asked, her voice an octave higher than normal. She'd paled significantly at this point.

Engineer stood up from the bench. "Well, we've gotta be killin' something. And if it isn't BLU, what is it?"
Re: [TF2] Mann Down
"So you have a new job" Sniper says "What is it? It better not be carrying around fake intel"

Re: [TF2] Mann Down
Scout looked extremely wary, her small frown suspicious. She wasn't opposed to simply cutting her losses and walking out now, if she could.

Re: [TF2] Mann Down
Scout quietly high-fived the Pyro, merely to make the firebug happy. She wasn't sure what this new job would be, or who they were working for, now that Redmond and Blutarch were both dead.

"Good, a new chance to prove my skills in combat." says Ninja.
"We should honor our fallen commanders the way they would have wanted us to, by beating the ever living crap out of anything we see!"
Heavy remains silent.

Re: [TF2] Mann Down
"The new job," Miss Pauling states, "is to deal with Gray Mann and his army."
"What army?" Spy says, leaning forwards, his elbow on his knee.
Miss Pauling holds up several photographs, depicting what seemed to be a large number of mechanical versions of the mercs.
"It would seem," she continues, "that Gray Mann has been watching the lot of you fight. His army, or at least part of it, is currently heading towards the outer facilities of Mann Co."

Scout stood up, looking at the photos. "Holy hell..." she said softly, blinking at the scout-bot. It was a robot in a Scout uniform. That was scary. Very scary. She paled further at seeing this, taking two quick steps back. It wasn't a shock that she was scared. Compared to the other mercs, Scout was almost a child, in spite of being 23 years old.

Sniper and Archer both look at the photos "So the wanker has some robots"

"They look like us. That's just... wrong," said Scout with a brief shake of her head, folding her arms protectively over her chest, shoulders hunched in a defensive manner. "Besides, they're metal. Imagine the damage they can take in comparison to us."

Re: [TF2] Mann Down
Engineer spoke reassuringly to Scout. "Aw, it ain't as bad as you think, missy. Me and my sentry gun can attest to the fact that hot flying lead can make short work of mechanical devices."
Re: [TF2] Mann Down
Scout couldn't help but laugh at the soft-spoken Texan. "Thanks, Engie. If things get rough, I'll make sure to find the nearest sentry gun to hide behind, okay?" she replied with a small bout of nerve-induced laughter.

"He could, you know. There's more than one way to control the world," pointed out the Scout cleverly.

"If he's coming after Mann. Co, he's coming after us, Sniper. Everyone connected to Red and Blu. That means all of us, including you," retorted Scout, her frown deepening.
