Kolkular – The Briefing room
(OOC: Rage didn't yell before or during her punch, rather after, but 'll let it slide this time. The idea of Rage's sucker punch was to illustrate that Carnage was ignoring Rage.)
Rage clenched her fists standing down as best she could only bothered by Scourge's order. Rage knows full well about Carnage's reputation as a scientist of death, and it didn't bother her one bit, even though Carnage was ignorant of Rage's reputation. She knew that while Carnage is extremely deadly, by the time her sword cut through her thick armor, Carnage would probably be spare parts or Discord.
"Dear Carnage, I did not indicate you ignored me, so you've basically admitted that you have ignored me by assuming that was why I was mad! On top of that you have already spoken volumes indicating that you thought nothing of what I said with your body language alone." Rage chuckles darkly. That's all it took. One wrong move, one wrong look, something spoken wrong or not spoken at all. Rage is as volatile as anything could be. For those aware of her nature, it's no small wonder it took some programming for her not to lash out at the XO, and CO, or that Discord's honeyed words tended to give her some power over Rage.
"Know this, sister. Learn it well. I will not be ignored, or disrespected. I'm sure every Sweep is aware of this by now, and they all would expect the same. After all, my sibling, we are a unit, and if we are not good to each other, then what hope in unity do we have to ensure that we are the fighting force above other fighting forces?" Her last statement sounded like Discord's wisdom was rubbing off on her... or that she simply sought an excuse for her anger. Either way, it might just make sense as she spoke in a confident manner adding to her credibility.
Her eyes narrow at Carnage. "Sister, do not let arrogance, and rank blind you. To do so will make you weak, and we do not tolerate weakness. That love tap was simply the punctuation to the moral behind all this."
As Rage spoke, venting her anger, and calming down a bit, her tone became more civil. "By the way, sister.. remember my function. It's not a matter of choice that I am called Rage, nor is it a matter of choice that I have a berserk mode. Above all, you aren't exempt from my anger, or my Berserk mode." It sounded more like a friendly warning, and a fact, than a threat even though Rage is still boiling inside seeing Carnage so eager to write off her sister again.
With that, she turned to salute Scourge though she keeps her sensors open. They have been on full since she were put in charge of guarding the door and the hallway before that, and she simply forgot to deactivate her sensors. "I do regret that teaching Carnage took your time, and I await your word, Scourge."
