THEY'RE JUST A BUNCH OF SUNSHINE AND DAISIES, THESE TWO
*ahem*...okay, to get to the real stuff. Oooooh boy Rachel is complicated. On the one hand, Rachel in his time was dead. And Marco's been pretty much repressing how he felt about that for three years - he tells himself that it was for the war, that since she didn't mean as much to him as she did to the rest of the Animorphs it clearly can't hurt him as much, but fact was she was still someone close to him and her death did affect him. He also trusts her completely to watch his back, and there isn't anyone else he'd rather fight beside.
But she's also reckless. And insane. And someone that he frequently argues with. They clash like hell, and she frustrates him to no end. And at the moment, since their interactions have turned particularly vicious lately, things are definitely...tense. A part of him feels like Rachel's anger at him is justified, since he feels like the whole eval thing was his fault, but he's also...well, angry at her for being angry. He wonders what right she has to be all high-and-mighty at him about it when he blew their cover to Iniss and is a giant reckless ball of rage, and her eval is probably going to be a complete disaster.
