jfaly 69 Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Bzzz Bzzz. The phone buzzing next to Tobias Weiss’ head was driving him crazy, although the phone call that followed wasn’t even close to what he had expected. “Hello?” The gravel of just waking up was still incredibly present in Weiss’ voice. Kris Rice was on the other end of the line, laughing softly. “Tobias! Sorry, did I wake you? I’m in Korea, World Juniors duties call.” Weiss shakes the sleep out of his system and tries to focus on making Rice’s words make sense. “Of course, Mr. Rice. It’s no problem. What’s this call about?”There’s a beat of silence, where Weiss can almost hear the grin on Rice’s face. “I’ll cut to the chase so you can get back to bed. We’ve decided to name you captain of the Mercenaries in the upcoming World Juniors. Congratulations, T.” It’s a shock to the system, and an immediate (and literal) wake up call. “I’m captain? I’m wearing ‘The C’? Holy shit.” Another laugh, quick and sweet. “Indeed. Congratulations again, Tobias. You deserve it, and we’re excited to get that ‘C’ sewn on your jersey.” They make slight small talk, before the call ends. Tobias Weiss is a captain now, will he step up to the task?
