The first hint of genuine surprise showed through minute cracks in that stoic facade, Petra's eyebrows lifting as the white box was presented. She had been privy to the information that Stacey had vanished, although whether purposely or because he was actually "missing" in action, she didn't know. Frankly, the moon trainee had the feeling the only reason she knew anything at all was because she had been on that mission and had asked. Hearing now that not only had he recommended her for promotion, but that he had recommended she transfer to Death division -- his division -- surprised her. It didn't make any sense. He'd focused almost all his attentions on Aleister. He'd been the one Stacey had mentioned a promotion for.

Edith Carr's voice brought her back to the present, the new Intermediate hunter acutely aware of the not-quite threats. The division leader had made it quite clear she was not happy with her performance, her tone thinning a little with the word 'remove.' And the more she thought about it, the more it made sense. She had never been a good Moon trainee, not really -- the only reason she had ever wanted to be was to protect Robert, a task which had long been made obsolete for her. He had settled quite well into Life division, no longer barreling into combat without a second's hesitation, instead falling surprisingly easily into the position of 'healer.' He didn't need her to protect him anymore, he needed someone to fight for him, and the more she thought about all her solo missions, her time in the underwater observatory, the more she realized...

... those were intelligence missions.

Standing up straighter, Petra didn't bother to answer the question Ms Carr had asked.

"I would like to volunteer myself for transfer to Death Division, Ma'am."

Edith stared at Petra for a long, and then nodded, something in her easing a bit, "I'll file the paperwork. And," she she nodded at the box, "...tell the Quartermaster you'll need another design. Your new division information will be forwarded to your phone." The leader's expression grew slightly friendlier, "It's nothing personal, but Moon defends and saves lives, and there's no room for anything outside of that. I hope you do well in Death, Petra, and if you find yourself in trouble, you can trust a Moon to have your back." Another nod, "Be seeing you."

The older woman was gone in a few moments, leaving Petra with her new rank and new purpose as a hunter.

"Thank you."

The Intermediate trainee watched as the petite woman turned, following her with her eyes until she vanished down the hallway before returning to her room, shutting the door behind her with a gentle 'click.' She had just put on the coat, but now Petra slid it off again, her eyes following the crescent moons sewn into the back before hanging it up in the closet. Edith Carr's words rang in her ears a little, repeating over and over 'Moon defends and saves lives,' reminding of what she was leaving behind. Or, more importantly, what she hadn't been able to bring herself to do. It was strange, thinking she'd likely never wear that symbol again -- it left her feeling a little perturbed... and at the same time, oddly exhilarated.
