[Joaquin is standing up very straight, arms crossed, a serious look on his face. Under his mustache his mouth is drawn in a thin line, not really frowning but not happy either. Uh oh.]

As a soldier I've often found myself defending others in the name of what is lawful and just. That's the true nature of my work, back home and here as a hero. However, there are times when even a soldier is at odds with the law they have sworn to uphold. This, unfortunately, is one of those times.

[The stiffness melts away as he takes on a more huffy tone.]

I mean, seriously, you have to be twenty-one to drink? What kind of arbitrary age is that? You can buy smokes when you're eighteen but those are [he does the air quotes] bad for you. People will gripe at you at any time for just having a cigarette but making drunken posts over the communicators? Completely above reproach. [Sorry not sorry about using you as an example, Newton.]

Look, all I'm saying is, it's terrible that people are so judge-y when it comes to certain vices and not others. And those of us who could drink back at home should be allowed to drink here! It's only fair!

[Yeah, that's his real complaint here. Just had to get that off his chest.]

Ah, I getcha! I guess I understand. Not here, but back home I'm well-known. To say the least...

[ ARE THOSE INSECURITIES I SEE SHOWING BEHIND THAT TINY PENCIL-THIN MUSTACHE OF YOURS, JOAQUIN?? ]

Yeah. [ ALRIGHT SO, that got deep and awkward. ] Well, anyway, let em know when you want those shots!

[ WOW YOU WISH! S'okay, Bucky can't even remotely talk. Ask him sometime about how disappointed his dead father is in him, Joaquin! ]
