This is war

"How was everyone's first day in the army?" Nero asked, his voice much too energetic and jovial for everyone's liking. "Did it match what you imagined? Or had you imagined a lot more fighting on your very first day?"

"I feel like I need to get a new body…"

"Everything hurts…"

"They took away my phone…"

"The major can tell me what to do any time…"

"I know right, he was kind of hot…"

"This is child labour…"

Like a dam that burst, all the complaints, as well as some perverted thoughts, that they had been keeping to themselves all day came pouring out. They hardly bothered to listen to each other, and all the recruits just spoke over each other, which just made Nero chuckle.

Everyone spent a few good minutes venting before he began to calm them down. They only had one free hour, and if he allowed them to keep complaining then they would just spend the whole hour doing that.
