[Having shouted the words at such a volume, they echoed loudly in the spartan corridors. Tieria had little else to say, and left the noise reverberating in the empty air. As soon as it left his mouth, he was aware of how revoltingly imperious, how pathetic it sounded, but he wasn't going to take it back. He stood there, teeth bared and body shaking, allowing the weight of what he'd said to settle.
He really did mean it, the more he let it sink in. Death was part of his particular job on top of being a Gundam Meister, be it doing all that he could to maintain the safety of those around him, or carrying out the grim but thankfully rare task of dispatching the traitors and spies among them. From day one he had been given the duties of judge, jury and executioner of Celestial Being, and sometimes it was extremely hard to switch that off. That, coupled with the responsibility that had landed on his shoulders in the absence of both Veda and Sumeragi Lee Noriega to do his best to lead what was left of them, had left him with the overwhelming feeling that death in all its forms was now something that he had to control.]
