Send “!!!” for my muse to jump out from behind a corner, trying to startle your muse. @techiehux
BO1289 had intended to catch a fellow trooper by surprise. It was all about making sure that he was always on his guard as part of the training process. They had been given a troopers name written on a paper, told not to tell each other who it was, and to report back their findings on the soldier in question.
So imagine his surprise when he jumped out from the corner of a hallway and bellowed his loudest warcry-only for it to be in a small, defenseless man’s face.
Woops.
Techie threw himself down onto the ground and covered his head in a defensive maneuver learned from years of beatings as soon as he heard that terrible scream. He was nearly incoherent with terror, shaking so hard his teeth chattered. “Pl-pl-eaaase! D-don’t h-hu-hurt meee!” he wailed.
