3rd POV

It was another morning on the Mother of Invention, well at least it was morning on Earth. Most of the freelancers were up and about eating breakfast in the cafeteria.

"You look like shit, Rhode." Arizona said as Rhode Island sat across from her at their table.

Rhode's lips tugged into a smile as she set her helmet down next to her tray.

"I could say the same to you, Zona." Rhode chuckled, waving a spoon at her friend.

"Yeah, but you look worse." Arizona argues. She was right in a way. Dark circles had formed under Rhode's bright blue eyes and her hair was in a sloppy pony tail, unlike her usual formal and perfect ponytail.

Rhode shrugged and dug her spoon into her cereal.

"Hey guys." Virginia said, sitting down next to Rhode, "Woah, what happened to you?"

Rhode laughed a little and rubbed her eyes, not bothering to answer.

"Still shaken up about the last mission I'd guess." Arizona said slowly. Rhode raised her eyes to Zona and then back down to her food.

"How's Maine?" Virginia asked.

"He's fine." Rhode said simply.

"Since you saved his ass." Arizona muttered.

"Yeah, you're welcome." Rhode winced, her hand brushing against her right shoulder.

"So what's up with you Arizona? You don't look too peachy either" Virginia said, scooping up a mouthful of yogurt into her mouth.

Arizona glared. "It's your fault" Virginia was about to protest but Zona continued " You forgot to turn on your soundproofing. AGAIN, and I did NOT want to hear you and York getting it on"

Rhode made a face into her cereal.

Virginia's eyebrows scrunched up in confusion "I could've sworn I turned it on."

"Well you didn't" Arizona said.

"Shit man, I'm sorry. Next time just bang on my door and tell us to shut it"

"I did! You just didn't hear me!" Arizona exclaimed loudly.

Virginia had a look of realization on her face. "Ohhhhh I turned on the setting that silences what was happening on the outside instead of the one silences what happens inside. Heh sorry about that" She said sheepishly.

Arizona glared, then sighed, placing her cheek on her hand and stared across the room at the other table with freelancers.

Rhode said nothing, but continued to eat her cereal. South plopped down next to Arizona. Her trey smacked against the table, and some oatmeal sloshed out of its bowl. "Quit whining Arizona, I can hear you across the cafeteria." South complained, propping her elbows up.

Rhode bit her lip to conceal a snicker while Virgina laughed out loud.

South looked at Virginia "I heard you guys too you know" That shut Virginia up.

"See!" Arizona said gesturing at South "it's a problem Gin"

"It is not!"

"Help me out here Rhode!" Arizona exclaimed, reaching across the table and lightly smacked Rhode's right hand, spilling her cereal from the spoon. Rhode frowned and her eyes raised up to Arizona.

"Really?" She grumbled.

"I know you don't like it, Rhode!" South said. Rhode Island sighed and rubbed the bridge of her nose as she set her spoon back into the milk. Her tired eyes rested on the metal spoon and she traced designs on the table. "Rhode." South warned.

Rhode rose her eyebrows and looked up to the female Dakota.

"I didn't get much sleep either." She hesitantly admitted.

"See!" Arizona exclaimed. "I'm thinking you need to permanently turn the soundproofing on or just stop all together." Arizona muttered, drinking some orange juice, her face turning red as a few freelancers turned their heads towards her.

Virginia put her hands up in defense "Hey man it's a mutually beneficial thing I've got with the guys. They need stress relief and I will happily provide it"

South snorted "You have a sex addiction"

"Pfffft so?" Virginia asked, not caring that the cafeteria had gone silent and all the freelancers were staring at their table "What's wrong with it? It's not like I'll die if I don't do it but I also won't die if I DO do it."

It was silent until

"Hah you said do-do." CT laughed. Rhode stood up, leaving her tray for South to finish. Her cheeks were dusted a light pink and she picked up her helmet, walking across the silent cafeteria. Her eyes darted over to the other tables before she put on her helmet and left the room. Soon Maine stood up and left the room also.

South shrugged and slid Rhode's tray in front of her an started eating Rhode's left over cereal.

Arizona turned back to Virginia. "That's not the problem. It's effecting the rest of us. Sure, the guys are fine because of your 'stress relief'," Zona said, quoting with her fingers. "But the rest of us can't sleep. Especially Rhode. She's having trouble sleeping to begin with. Adding this won't help." She chuckled slightly.

"I can't sleep knowing your probably doing my brother." South snorted, eating Rhode's bagel.

Arizona threw her head back and laughed.

"I'll have you know it was York I was doing last night" Virginia pointed out.

Arizona groaned "yes we do know that we could HEAR YOU. That's the point of this whole conversation!"

"What's the whole point of what conversation?" York had just now showed up.

The girls all looked at each other then burst out laughing.

York looked confused. "What, why are you laughing at me?"

"I-it's nothing York" Arizona said between laughs.

North came over and dragged York over to their table "come on buddy just ignore them"

"Um okay?" York said as he let North drag him.

The girls calmed down and Virginia spoke "Okay guys fine I'm sorry I'll turn on the soundproof permanently. But couldn't you guys have just turned on your own so you couldn't hear us?"

Arizona looked sort of sheepish. "Uh I forgot about it."

"I didn't I was just way too lazy to get up" South said as she got up and put the trays away. "Ima go do some training see you guys" she said as she walked off.

"Don't let Maine cream you!" Arizona called with a light laugh.

"Right, I'll let him do that to you!" South retorted as she left the room.

Arizona huffed and stood up, stretching out her legs, "Well. I'm getting seconds." She said, patting Virginia on the back before walking back to the counter. Virginia sat there, drinking the last of her drink and placed her elbow on the table. "Hey, did you hear we're getting a new recruit?" Arizona called across the room.

"No, who is it?" Virginia asked.

"Uh I think it was Washington but I could have heard wrong, Wyoming told me." She shrugged, running her fingers through her short, brown hair

"Oooooh I wonder if it's a guy" Virginia said.

Arizona facepalmed as did some of the other freelancers who were still in the cafeteria.

"Goddamnit Ginny" she said

"What? I wanna know" Virginia whined.

Arizona sighed as she sat down with her seconds. "Yes Virginia, it's a guy"

Virginia laughed triumphantly "Ha Ha Sweet!"

Arizona rolled her eyes "Seriously dude, why weren't you called Idaho"

"Cuz there was already one, duh" Virginia chirped.

Arizona banged her head on the table.

"Hey now, don't go injuring yourself" Virginia singsonged.

"Yeah whatever, go hang out with Florida or something" Arizona grumbled.

Virginia pouted, "Fine" She dumped her tray, put her teal hair up in a ponytail, grabbed her helmet, then left the room.
