Title: A Bit of R&R
Fandom: XCOM 2
Rating: General
Length: 100 words
Content notes: Player characters on an earth ruled by aliens. Part of a series of drabbles based on some of my favourite randomly-supplied XCOM soldiers, in this case for the Long War 2 mod version.
Summary: XCOM soldiers don't get enough down time to want to spend it thinking.

"Party." Hugo said.

"'S'not a party." Ricardo didn't bother to open his eyes. "What are you, some kinda D&D'er?"

"Nah, the name. We could be the Party Squad."

"Yeah," Hugo said. "We bring the fun. And the gas grenades."

Raina narrowed her eyes at the lounging soldiers. "If you've been sniffing those again--"

"Just kidding, boss."

"That was close," Sylvie said as Raina's footsteps receded. "Now, who's got the viper moonshine?"
