"She's so cold," Milo said to Inca, referring to April, one of the senior crew members on the platform.
"Ironic huh? Maybe that's how she survives so well on the platform." Inca replied. "Remember, we're the new guys. Might have to earn our scorches."
"Sure. But we aren't incompetent. We've been through all the training and worked years in the reactors. It's not like we don't know what we're doing."
Inca shrugged and got back to work. He knew better than to remain in an argument with Milo. The guy knew his stuff, and was a hard worker, but he could let his head get a little too big sometimes. Humility was drilled into Inca's head from a young age.
As far as work ethic went, though, the two were comparable. They hit it off well from day one in the training program and had been working close together since. Having grown so close, Inca could tell approval from superiors was important to him, so it wasn't a surprise Milo fixated on April's approval. Still, why not at least seek someone else's for now?
