Bad habits? The very idea of bad habits makes Maine chuckle. Kurt had not been like the other SPARTANS when they were young, but looking back Matt knew he wasn't either. In a way Kurt had been unlucky. Too social by half lumped in with two of the least communicative SPARTANS in the program. Matt had never been interested in much past the training, and now...
Freelancers were about their down time. Maine had taken up playing poker so he wouldn't get forced into strip poker. The latter meant too much showing off of his augmentation scars and he had gotten enough prying from normal enlisted men to deal with the far nosier Freelancers. He had worked to make sure his shower schedule didn't line up with anyone else. There was also the spree of pranks played by his coworkers and the ever insane list of bets that Florida maintained.
Maine had been forced to adapt, and perhaps learn to have fun.
"Not worried about mine," Matt shrugs. The Director had a use for him. "But if you don't want to make sure we can stay in touch, can we at least find some playing cards."

Probably shouldn't get an officer in trouble.
