(The Original Version)((yes, yes I do cater to my every readers whim.)) lol
He wasn't jealous. That was preposterous. The Sniper just didn't like the guy. In fact, maybe Snippy should thank the man. The Engineer had preoccupied the Captain for so long that Snippy had had plenty of time to relax and do his own thing. It'd been three days since Snippy had been sent on his last mission.
…They were running low on food. Maybe Snippy could tell Captain and he'd be sent on a mission to obtain more….not that he needed to. He liked being on his own…Really!
Who cares that Captain hasn't been looming over his bed for the past two nights or that Engie hadn't even said a word to him or that Pilot hadn't called him a 'worthless shoe' since last week. Snippy didn't need them. He was just fine sitting here in his corner of their base. He was getting an extra hour of sleep! And he didn't have to constantly watch out for them.
Everything was great now. Snippy didn't need Captain or Pilot or this engineer guy, whoever he was. He liked his alone time. He was glad that Engie had taken all the attention off of him. Nobody looked to him anymore to take care of Photoshop or to go on ridiculous quests!
…but maybe he could as Captain what needed to be done…just to have something to do of course!
