On peer pressure...

[swordlore]

Mun, I don't care what everyone else is saying, you need to take this seriously! If you're going to try this, you need to give it your all! You can't bring me out here just to flounder around without a purpose. I'm a Marine, and you can't take me lightly!

If you're serious, take a look at the game and decide if it's what's best. You know you'll have your own ship to captain at the start of next month, and I won't have you take on more than you can handle. That's not fair to your own crew, and it's not fair to me or anyone else.

Maribelle, and I had the unique privilege of commanding Smoker and Kuzan for a time.

[If one can really 'command' men like that.]

Now I am more active as a small business woman and working towards becoming a member of the courts of justice. It's all well and good to have fine officers like you and Smoker, but the world needs more than a force of arms to see that true justice is served. Corrupt bureaucrats have a way of weaseling out of things, and poor farmers have a way of being falsely convicted. My ambition is to see to it that your efforts won't ever be in vain.

[Maribelle, she is looking at you with the utmost respect right now for so many reasons.]

That's so admirable! The world needs more people like you in it, Maribelle. There are far too few who understand the true meaning of 'justice' in this or any world. I think together, we can make sure we achieve both of our dreams. I look forward to working with you!
