Khvostov: blushing, stares at the ruins I... I did not expect this! The city... it was glorious once!
Good job finding somebody special. This is how you know the person you love is truly in love with you, is to find a person who’s willing to go through the most pain for you. Do you think we’re ready for that pain?
Khvostov: puts a hand on Carter's shoulder We've faced worse odds before, haven't we? Love requires courage, and we've got plenty of that.
Oh hey! Wanna meet my squadmates? There’s like 6 of them. And we have a second ten. We’re actually a really big clan!
Khvostov: laughs A big clan, huh? Well, I guess that means more people to help us on our quest. Let's meet them, shall we?
Uh, yeah! They’re all Grineer, aside from me and one other guy. So, uh, they’re gonna be… really salty about that.
Khvostov: raises an eyebrow Grineer, huh? Well, I've dealt with my fair share of salty folks. Just tell them I'm not one to mess with.
Alright. Meet Daiki, the self-proclaimed “Emo” of the team. He keeps saying how much he hates you already…
Khvostov: smirks An emo Grineer, huh? Sounds like a interesting character. I can't wait to meet him. And what's his issue with me?
I don’t know, man. He just told me I was being super insensitive and rude whenever I spoke Russian.
Khvostov: chuckles Ah, cultural differences. I suppose it's natural for someone to be sensitive about their native language.
Next up is Saitama, the Ace of the Ten. He’s the main tactician of the squad and basically the best at everything. He’s also a cyborg. But he’s… really self-centered, man. Like, all he cares about is if something is useful to him. When I told him you were from the Soviet Union, he just went off about how much he liked the efficiency of socialism…
Khvostov: raises an eyebrow A cyborg, huh? Now that's a interesting fellow. Sounds like he could be a valuable asset to our cause.
Yeah! Then there’s Natsuki, the maid of the squad. She’s really sweet, but she’s scared of me because I once told her I wanted to steal her away and marry her.
Khvostov: grins mischievously A maid with a fearful side, eh? Well, I suppose it's natural to want to protect such a sweet individual. Maybe I could charm her into my side.
Next up is Ryo, the biggest softie in the squad. She used to be a high-class prostitute, and she’s still a virgin. She didn’t want to lose her purity to her first client so she made sure her first kiss was with her ultimate crush… which she thought was gonna be Hanz, but it turned out to be me.
Khvostov: laughs heartily A high-class prostitute with a heart of gold, huh? Sounds like an interesting character. And you say she's still a virgin?
Yup. She’s never had a relationship last longer than a week because the guys always get bored of her after a few days. She’s really clumsy, too.
Khvostov: leans in closer A clumsy, soft-hearted prostitute, eh? Sounds like she might need someone to watch over her. Maybe I should offer my services.
Speaking of services, oh boy do I have some bad news for you. First, let me introduce Draka. He’s basically the grumpy old grandpa of the squad. He’s a veteran of the Solar Wars, and he’s just generally a nice guy. He’ll accept anybody into the squad so long as they’re nice to him.
Khvostov: smiles warmly A grumpy old grandpa, huh? Sounds like he'll be a great addition to our little group. I hope he'll take a liking to me.
He’s also a total idiot, so… enjoy that. Then there’s Reika, the Ultimate Cute Girl. She’s basically the perfect girlfriend for Draka. They’re super in love with each other. They’ve known each other for literally thousands of years, ever since Draka was her grandfather’s assistant.
Khvostov: smiles Ah, a match made in heaven, eh? Well, I hope their love story has a happy ending. And who might this Ultimate Cute Girl turn out to be?
She doesn’t really like me very much, but she’s friendly to everybody. She’s a total nerd though. All she likes to do is read Shakespearean plays and listen to Chopin. I’ve never met another girl who goes even a little bit for Cyborgs, let alone one who goes like, totally for them.
Khvostov: raises an eyebrow A Shakespeare-loving, Chopin-wielding Cyborg, eh? Sounds like a unique specimen. I'm curious to meet this paragon of nerdiness.
Finally, there’s Mira. She’s the only member of the second ten that I’ve met, because she’s the only one who isn’t afraid of me. I was super worried I’d messed up the formatting of the invite I sent her, because she called me up about it. But then I realized she was talking about the new Harry Potter mobile game instead of Warframe.
Khvostov: laughs heartily A nerdy cyborg, eh? Sounds like she'll fit right in with our little group. I wonder if she has any hidden talents.
Nope. She’s just a regular person who likes nerdy stuff. She’s super friendly though, so I’m sure you’ll like her.
Khvostov: claps hands together Well, it seems like our squad is shaping up quite nicely.
You’re missing one of the ten.
Khvostov: smirks I'm glad you corrected me. Who is this mysterious tenth member of the squad?
