Kurt had the grace to look slightly chagrined at that. “Ah, well, we’ll be shipping out by 0300 so things will return to normal here soon enough.” It was probably more than he should have offered up but honestly, if Matt wanted to figure out what was going on, short of him drugging him or locking him up somewhere, he was obviously capable of getting around their security measures.
So long as he didn’t see Gamma though, opsec was still being maintained as far as Kurt was concerned and there was no reason to feed the information of the breach up the chain of command just yet. He just needed to keep his brother out of trouble for the next nine hours or so. “I suppose it depends on what your idea of ‘fun’ entails these days. You’ve been hanging out with the rank and file, should I be worried about you having picked up any bad habits, Matt?”
Like Kurt had any room to talk? He’d been infamous for being friendly with their DI’s and the enlisted personnel back on the base during training. He’s nearly been caught a few times breaking curfew because he’d been hanging out in the enlisted barracks as well.
Of course, as base commander, these days Kurt couldn’t be seen hanging out with the enlisted playing poker or getting into mischief. So yes, in a lot of ways, rank had forced him to become more serious.
“I’m sure we can figure out something to pass the time without endangering both our military careers."
