#everyone else in The Lions is like “We're not nearly traumatized enough”

man oh man i had an idea. what if once IRIS collapsed Romanas joined the shadow company and subsequently met the lions. it would be so funny but also so sad because like.
Romanas: *getting the bare minimum of decency* wow they really love their soldiers here huh
or the food situation
Romanas: what do you mean you get three meals a day? like for free? you don't have to kill an extra 20 people by yourself or give out favors(you can guess what kind) to superiors?.... that's insane
someone goes to touch Romanas in a completely no threatening way
Romanas: *flinches so hard he almost falls over*
there's also the wole can't feel pain thing
Stone: *trying to patch Romanas up*
Romanas: *was shot three times and scooped the bullets out with a knife* tis but a flesh wound
Romanas gets in trouble for tossing sparring partners like sallads
Romanas: what do you mean i "can't fight for blood"? this a sparring match not a game of pattycake.... i didn't even hit him that hard.... what the hell is a "holding back"? why would i do that? you don't.... fight until one of you is in the infirmary?..... that's weird but ok
the beds and sleep would also be a separate matter
Romanas: yooo these beds are nice (it's the most basic ass barack bed in existence) and y'all got fancy pillows and blankets too? (it's the most threadbare pillow and blanket, most people on base don't even use those).... what do you mean they let you sleep more than three hours?... doesn't that... make you lazy? when do y'all wake up?
the interractions would be funny with Romanas thinking the most basic things were luxury and that basic decency was some big kindness (but it's also sad but oh well Romanas spends lots of time in the meatgrinder)
Cerberus & Romanas 🤝 being thrown off by the amount of luxury they now have.
Cerberus and Romanas can fawn over the fact they have nice beds now and have a steady source of food.
Meanwhile the rest of The Lions are like "So they both need therapy, okay." Kali is dialing the therapist and psychiatrist that are on Shadow Company's payroll.
I love the fact that you added Stone in this despite him not even being in the Shadow Company base because he's being lent to the 141 and doesn't even know Sarabi, Simba, and Nala are alive.
