Silas had just made his way out of the entrance to the ranger's HQ. The promotion of the new commissioner was not something he was very glad to be a part of, which was why he left prematurely. He had no idea who it was who would be leading them in the days to come. The higher ranking officials seemed to be a lot more self-centered than those of lower rank. It made Silas question if these people were really trying to do some good, or if it was the status they thrived for; like being commissioner was some sort of popularity contest. Whatever it was, he didn't like the way they talked to the Cadets, and even the Sergeants for that matter. He texted furiously on his phone, venting on his twitter to a few of internet "friends". Mostly just pokemon enthusiasts who followed him on the app, and would tweet him funny pictures that they called a "meme".
He didn't quite understand the internet, but Silas enjoyed their humor. He stopped outside when a new picture was sent, reluctant to hear the door opening and closing behind him.
His presence at the ranger meeting seemed a spoke on a wheel that had already gone flat. He was new, but he was not necessary, he would not be missed. It’s this mindset that eases Jean’s departure from the gathering, to the relative (and preferred) calm of the outdoors. Truthfully though, he felt a desire to speak. Not to everyone, but to someone. A fitting partner for this activity seemed another ranger who had also had enough of his compatriots. He approaches the young man, giving enough space to promote himself as a non-threat, but coming close enough to indicate that he does indeed want a conversation.
”Excuse me…” Jean uses his usual call to attention.
”I’m new to the rangers; have they always been this… severe with one another?”

Silas heard a voice from behind, putting his phone down and looking to his hind, where the voice had come from. They were a pretty large fellow, with a booming voice, even though they weren't speaking very loudly. It was great for getting Silas' attention. "Oh, uh...to be honest, I wouldn't know very well. I'm pretty new myself, and I haven't met much anyone in that room. My name's Silas, by the way. " He pocketed the cellular device, figuring they would be talking longer than a few minutes out here where they others couldn't bother them.
"Personally, I just nominated someone who didn't seem very obnoxious or arrogant. That one guy though..." The light-haired male who said none of the other rangers could lead really provoked Silas' ire. "I hate to think someone like him could end up leading us. I'll probably just end up quitting if he does." Silas knew all too well he'd want to swing on them any chance he got. He only barely resisted the urge of chucking his cellphone at the man, and this was only because Taar Godfrey herself exacted punishment on the man before Silas could himself.
This Silas also seemed something of a fellow rookie. Not that Jean could have guessed at first glance; the vast majority of the rangers he met were younger than him. The consequences of pursuing a career like theirs later than usual, he knew.
”Jean Michelle Leroux” He introduces himself with his whole name, the way he was taught.
He listens to the young man’s perspective on the whole thing, and the mixture of disdain and disappointment emanating from his words is almost palpable. Aside from his statement about quitting, Jean could agree. Still, he’d rather steer the conversation in a different direction.
”I like to consider myself a decent judge of character; you seem respectful and humble enough, unlike our hot-headed comrade in there. Don’t let an unworthy display or two snuff you out.” A long winded way of the telling the boy don’t quit.
”This Taar Godfrey, was it? I don’t know if I agree with incapacitating others, no matter how obnoxious they are. If I might ask, why nominate her?

"Why not?" He actually didn't have a very good answer. Silas just knew he didn't want that other Sergeant to be in charge. The way he acted was intolerable, especially since Silas was known to be a difficult person. Or at least he knew he could be difficult. "Her violence came after the accusation, so I wouldn't say it was completely uncalled for. I actually wanted to throw my phone at him when I first heard it." This probably didn't make him out to be a very mature fellow, but Silas preferred to be honest, at least with something like this. "Besides, it probably didn't matter who I nominated. They're going to nominate whoever and things will eventually go back to being what we consider to be normal. Hopefully, anyway." His gaze shot towards the doors they had both come out of. "You'd think Athena could've just picked someone so we didn't have to sort it out between ourselves and make everything so personal." At least he felt it should've been like so.
Violence is never called for is what he wants to say, what his initial instinct urges him to say, but he remembers that there are more productive avenues on the corner of such disagreement. To lead by example, and such. Silas’ statements reverberate in opposite directions, Jean thinks. It’s almost as if the thinks too much of the rangers, and at the same time, too little. There’s much to parse from the words spoken, but Jean thinks it prudent to at least say the following.
”Simple, or cliche, as it might seem, I suppose the only thing we can do is our best.” Not that things were always that easy, but the time for pontificating about such facts wasn’t in this moment.
”I suppose I won’t take up any more of your time, Silas. Hopefully we’ll meet again.”
