There wasn't anything he could do by remain at Gabe's elbow as they emerged from their little sequestration. The older man had been fighting idiots about his hormones for longer than Jack had been born, but he could be there as a support this time around. He could stand with Gabe and make it clear that alpha, beta, omega didn't matter, least of all in wartimes when human fear, bigotry and dislike had landed them in this mess in the first place.
"Alright," he murmured and set down his own burger so he could wait for Gabe. He could already think of how the powers that be might be looking for excuses, but the fact of the matter was that they were soldiers and in combat, it was leaders and their fellows that had their respect. It wasn't the politicians laying down their lives on the line. There would be some ribbing, a little push back from other soldiers, but in the end, they would easily accept Gabe because he had proven himself over and over in the field.
He nodded his head, trying and failing to hide how pleased he was. They would remain together. "We make a good team." He was almost Gabe's second. "It won't be a problem. I won't let it be a problem for me or for you. We have a track record that will speak for us." And both of them were soldiers of excellent reputation. This would be like fighting the battle of when he had come out to his family and friends.
