Ambrosia stared at him as he spoke again. But the answer left a certain level of despair inside her. It wasn't something she could quantify correctly though, it simply left her with that same feeling of frustration, but he hadn't tried to explain it at least. He was inadvertently admitting that it wasn't simple, it was as complex as it had always felt to her, at least when it came to her perspective, an outsider looking in.

"Oh man.. That is lame.. They have to be real bored at this base to spread that so damn face." The tan-skinned male grumbled a little, adjusting his eye-patch, "Can you believe that chick though? Talking like that to me?" He griped a little the smacked himself in the head, "Lame, lame, lame, I sucked..! I shoulda seen that stupid-ass mech up there long before it fired that freakin' weapon.." He ladled a little food into his mouth, staring at Trigger with a slight frown,
"Lemme guess, first thing you did was proposition her, right?"
