⚔️ Smash or Pass Meme // ACCEPTING ⚔️

"Ehhh... Not sure about that..." Hunter offers an awkward and apologetic look while scratching the back of his neck. He's pretty sure Trace is around the same age as Omega but he's not sure. Not enough experience with others that aren't clones to know.

"Sorry, kid. I'm sure you can find a nice kid around your age, yeah? But 'm gonna have to pass."

"Oh, um..." Tech looks like he's just been flashbanged. He's not sure how to process or proceed with answering the question and he very nearly drops his tablet. It takes him a moment to respond but eventually he offers a polite but slightly awkward, "no thank you."

That's a pass.

"Huh? Yeah, I could smash ya if I wanted! I could crush ya, and then blow ya up into a million pieces! HAHA!" Wrecker's comment is followed up with a boisterous laugh. It's very clear he did not understand the question.

"But why would I do that? You're a friend of ours! I don' wanna hurt ya!"

Pass, by virtue of the fact that's Wrecker. And he has no idea what's going on.

"No." There is no elaboration or room left for discussion. Not when he's scowling and glaring at her like that.

Pass.

"No thanks, kid. I'm a soldier. Not a bedwarmer." Echo honestly seems a bit shocked she'd even ask. His words are straightforward and rather kind given his usual demeanor - if a little stilted from being caught off guard. A keen eye might notice the subtle way that his eyes dart about, avoiding her and betraying some level of self-consciousness that Echo usually keeps under tight wraps.

Pass. Though it seems that the decision has less to do with Trace and more to do with himself.
