#au where all the Ghosts are just cats and Elias is a crazy cat man *wheeeeze*

Overheard conversations pt6

Gabriel: You see, giving out callsigns is kind of like naming cats.

Elias: how so?

Gabriel: either deeply meaningful or unhinged or truthful.

Elias: Example.

Gabriel: Neptune; Named for the Roman God of the sea, represents his Italian/Greek ancestry, and pays homage to his father, whose call sign was Posidon.

Elias: So that's the 'deeply meaningful' compartment. What about truthful?

Gabriel: Keegans a scout sniper, so scout.

Elias: Do I want to know who on our team is ''unhinged'?

Gabriel: Grim and Torch. I met Grim like three months before Sandpiper. Found him lying in a freshly dug grave. As for Torch, I could count how many times he's blown something up or set him self on fire on my fingers if I had fifty sets of hands, that is.

Oh I love this. Elias being the one who gave all or most of the Ghosties their callsign and the goofy part about their lore + Rorke making fun of Elias for it.
