John gives her a half-smile to break the tension.
"Some of us stronger than others. I read some of the stuff Spartans can do — impressive stuff. Fastest one can run forty miles an hour. I couldn't imagine anyone in the galacy potentially beating my buddy Grunt in a footrace."

𝐅𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐚𝐡-𝐆𝟐𝟐𝟗
"Yeah."
John would take her wrists gently.
"Alright. Knock it off before I put you in air jail."
