Shooting him a look of amusement. "I've never seen that rumour proven so distinctly twice in an hour," Bossuet mentioned, slightly more to Cosette as she settled in line between the two men, though certainly not so quietly that Combeferre would not also be a part of his audience.
She glanced up from her tricorder, satisfied with their course correction. "Rumour?" she asked curiously.
"That those who follow along the officers' track always have the same way of handling personal priorities on their first missions: sad, sad denial." A bit of a wink to share the joke with Cosette, whose brow furrowed a bit in confusion but still bit her lip in a sympathetic smile regardless. "Makes you wonder about Alexis, though, since so far as any of us can tell, his personal priority's just always been to be Captain."
Then, more directly to Combeferre, dryly, "I'm sure we'll have plenty of opportunity to collect samples off our skin if the humidity continues to rise any further." And it would have been getting hotter and slightly damper the deeper into the not-quite-"forest" they were traveling into, and the air had gotten thicker with the flutter of wings. "And our lungs," appended uncomfortably as he tried to bat more of the flying creatures away from his face.
"Well, duh." Snorting a little; Feuilly and jokes blended as well as oil and water, sigh. "My point being that you might. It's not every day you get to try a new ingredient in your sad and meatless meals, right?"
