"Listen up, shitbricks." Percy barked as he stalked up and down the line of Condors, standing shoulder to shoulder, just as he always made them when he was going to speak. His jaw tightened with the grinding of his teeth, chewing on the erstwhile cigar he missed so dearly.
"No doubt you've all been bitching and moaning up and down 'bout this RFID chip. Can't walk across the goddamn quad without hearing some whiny Vol going on 'bout it. So we're gonna do this once, then I don't wanna hear another goddamn word, capice?"
He didn't wait for an answer, but rather rolled up his sleeve to present the grizzled line of a six inch scar. "See this? Knife fight." He barked, before yanking up his pantleg. "This? Shrapnel." Next he ducked forward and ran a hand up the back of his head, lifting his hair to show the very base of his neck. No scar could be seen. "And this is from gettin' my goddamn chip put in, which felt just 'bout as bad as a goddamn mosquito bite. So shut your pie holes about how bad it'll hurt."
He cast his glower up and down the line, "I'll level with you punks: I don't give a good goddamn if you get chipped or not. A chip just means if your sorry asses get kidnapped I gotta go to all the trouble of trying to bring you back, and I'd just as soon not have to bother. With that said, any'a you punks want to man up instead of being some pinko leftie flag-burning commie, well I may just damn well faint from surprise."
He huffed an annoyed breath through his nose, giving his charges a challenging glare. "Questions!?"
