On developments in high_seas

This ain' gonna end well. I don' regret doin' it, not really, but how'm I s'posed t' tell anyone?

Startin' t' not want any of the others, y'know. Y' can' expect me t' tell Kurt or Kitty 'bout this if they come. An' if Scott found out? No. Not even thinkin' 'bout that.

An' Jean? Yeah. No. No way. I'd prefer th' other Jean. Even if I didn' get t' meet her. She at least... I dunno. Sounds like she ain' got any room t' judge, y'know?

An' don' think I don' know you're still hopin' for some more of my crew, nevermind what I think, right? Right. Not like you care.

Jus'... Jus' promise me it'll be worth it? When it's all over... All I want, really.

So... What are you talking about?

[tactilelearner]

...Got in too deep with some new friends, guess you could say.

[madangry_madcrazy]

How deep are we talking? 'Deep end of the pool' deep, or 'Mariana trench' deep?

[tactilelearner]

"Someone's dead" deep.

[madangry_madcrazy]

... I'm going to need a little more than that before I feel comfortable weighing in with my two cents.

[tactilelearner]

He was a slaver. No great loss t' the world at large, I'd say.

[madangry_madcrazy]

Ah... Yes, good riddance. Not a fan of slavery, I take it?

[tactilelearner]

Hate it. 'Specially hate it when it's mutants enslavin' other mutants.

[madangry_madcrazy]

What if it's more 'equal opportunity' slavery? Through mind control, more specifically.

[tactilelearner]

Been there, done that. Wish I'd gotten t' kill the guy.

[madangry_madcrazy]

[She might notice that by this point he's tapping his fingertips together in a somewhat awkward manner.]

Ah, I see... Well, what if this person wanted to destroy the ozone layer, or cover the state of Wisconsin in magma before rebuilding it as his own personal kingdom? Hypothetically speaking, of course.

[tactilelearner]

I don' normally do the whole killin' thing. He'd get a hell of a fight tryin' t' do anyhin' like that, though.

[madangry_madcrazy]

And... Occupying the world with giant killer robots?

[tactilelearner]

That'd be in my future. Also not a good route.

[madangry_madcrazy]

Ah... So, back to you. As someone who's tried to feed another human being to man-eating sharks, alligators and giant squid I'm not going to judge you on... whatever you personally did that led to this person's death.

I'm just going to tell you to hang in there, and that you seem like a tough gal, so I'm sure you'll be fine no matter what happens next.

[sugah_fish]

Nice accent! Ah'm always glad to hear others speakin' with it.

Mississippi girl born an' bred.

Wish ah could say the same, but ah was just programmed with mine.
