The Sin of Pride - Deathwatch

[bluntpencil]

"Sure thing, Cap, you don't wanna risk getting shown up by lowly mortals, even ones such as myself, who got recruited by an Inquisitor on account of boarding actions and shipboard fighting."

As Kuchenko leaves with a skip in his step, he turns around, his voice changing to one of concern. His eyes fall onto Ardelan's grievous wounds, then look at the injuries of the others.

"I don't want to put this ship at risk, my lords. Some of your men are quite obviously badly injured. I don't want any individual's pride, regardless of how mighty they are, to have a negative effect on our goals.

I will be keeping men in reserve as a precaution."

With that, he walks out, ignoring anything the Astartes say. He opens a vox to several of his Lieutenants, and has them move armsmen into advantageous positions, in order to pin down the enemy.
