Maverick casually cusses Cain out for any random thing that goes wrong that may or may not be Cains fault.
Example; Dropped his morning snack-"FUCK YOU CAIN!! YOU BASTARD I KNOW THIS IS YOUR FUCKING FAULT!!!"
Funny thing is the dagger ducklings pick up on this habit and start doing it themselves.
Phoenix can't get tone on an instructor, and starts cursing Cains ancestors in two different languages
Hangman strikes out on getting a date and its obviously Cains fault so he let's everyone at the Hard Deck know that Cain has an open tab, so everyone buys a drink (or several). Jakes a petty bitch. The bill ends up being several thousand dollars. (The culprit was never found, Penny would never give up one of the daggers like that, Maverick maybe, but she loves the rest. )
Roosters favourite Hawaiian shirt has a stain in it. He proceeds to cuss and bad mouth Cain to anyone who'll listen for the next 15 years and will hold a silent grudge when in Cains presence for the end of time. He never forgets.
Fanboy and Payback planned and hosted their own game night for two (themselves) but it was interrupted by a power outage, and the next day was a suprise PT day. They glitter-ify Cain office the next time he's distracted by a meeting. (This one was Cain direct fault as he threw a bitch fir on the base and demanded an unnecessary overhaul of the main grid, shorted it cause he's a dumbass, and then the base had to cover their asses the next day as to why the lights weren't working, so hey did PT).
Legend has it there's still glitter following Cain to every new base he goes to.
Coyote just casually picked up the habit from being around their mavdad too long and casually curses Cain out of sheer habit and exposure. There doesn't need to be a reason. Dropped his morning protein shake? It's that Motherfucker Cains fault. Can't find his charger? Curses at the wall about Cain for the next five instead before finding it in the sofa and continuing as if nothing happened. Most of the daggers and even some of the base staff don't even register it as something out of the ordinary anymore, they just roll. Coyote successfully normalised the use of cussing out Cain casually. What a king.
Bob doesn't really curses or use that sort of language. But when he does, hoo boy. He's the most passive but also the most subtle and creative of the daggers with his insults. He insulted Cain to his face. With a Cain insult. No one knows how he got away with it. Not even Maverick and he was standing two feet away while sweet unassuming Bob ripped into Cain with a pleasant smile and soft tone.
It flew right over Cains head and Mav damn near had a heart attack when Cain nodded along to Bob's words with a dazed expression.
