"You really need to know how to treat people better, you'd be more popular."
Star Sergeant Zac raised both his hands in defeat. Now, one would not really think of anything about this scene as nothing but Zac truly surrendering—but there was something he and Riley only knew.

Zac was still completely locked in Riley's telekinetic hold, and yet he was able to raise both his hands and pretend as if he didn't even need to exert effort to do so—and judging by the growing smirk on his face, Zac knew exactly what he was doing.
"Now, now. No need to look at me, I know I'm beautiful," Zac then brushed his hair back, before pursing his lips and raising his eyebrows at Riley.
