POV: Phoenix Kade
"Enough, kid. You should be leaping for joy at having been recruited into Tartarus. We have a sterling reputation in this outpost, but lemme make it clear to you right now, you aren't here to just loaf around and enjoy life! Starting today, you'll only be given two pieces of bread and one bottle of water each day. In exchange, you do whatever the hell we tell you to do. No whining and no foot-dragging. Can't handle it? Then f**k off. Tartarus aint charity! Got it?"

Slyfox has an excited look on his face as he says, "We made out like bandits on this mission. We need to hold a celebration!"
"HAH! Long live the boss!"
